Owner: Andrew Skalkin Issues: https://github.com/datagrok-ai/public/projects/2

Power widgets

A start page that contains widgets (annotated with the dashboard tag) that are dynamically discovered from the packages available to the current user.

Power search

Ability to search for anything from the start screen, with the special support for the following:

• Widgets
• Functions
• Applications
• User-defined external apps (via iframe)
• Entities (connections, queries, etc)

Search templates

The goal is to provide an efficient and extensible way to react to user input in the global search box. A search template consists of the following:

• regular expressions (parameters would become properties)
• widget identifier
• property mapping

A collection of search templates is curated by the community (either global or within your organization). You can mix and match template collections by editing the searchTemplatePaths package property.

The following example illustrates the template that binds a ChEMBL molecule identifier (such as CHEMBL123456) with a web page containing the molecule summary. Here is the corresponding entry in the chembl.json file:

     {
      "id": "chembl-id-representations",
      "name": "Representations",
      "widget": "webWidget",
      "templates": [{
        "template": "(CHEMBL[0-9]+)",
        "url": "https://www.ebi.ac.uk/chembl/embed/#compound_report_card/${1}/representations"
      }]
    }

Now, when you enter CHEMBL123456 in the search box, the following page appears: https://www.ebi.ac.uk/chembl/embed/#compound_report_card/CHEMBL123456/representations
