Some notes of using the Graph builder part of conman

  • After selecting the Graph Builder tab, select the scenario of interest from the dropdown to the upper left
  • You can import an existing graph using the 'import' link just below the scenario dropdown. Useful if the scenarios in the track represent the evolution of a single scenario over time - eg a careplan being updated - or if someone has created a nice graph and you want to adapt that.]
  • Add a new resource instance from the palette to the upper right. Can be Core types, logical models or profiles (profile support is very new)
  • The page is in 2 panes
    • the left pane is selects an instance (with a couple of other functions)
    • the right pane is the editor
  • The left (instance selected) pane:
    • Use the list to see instances in a table - also shows references from each instance, has a link to the spec (if a core type) and has a delete link for both references and the instance itself

  • the right (editor) pane:

    • Use the table view for editing the instance (adding data etc)

      • The > to the left hides/shows child elements from a Backbone element
      • The + symbol in column 2 will duplicate the selected element (if multiple) - including any children. The 'collapse' link at the upper right is useful to hide everything except the topmost elements - kind of a tidy up link.

    • Use the Tree view to look at a populated instance

      • elements with data against them are in green bold. Selecting it shows the json data to the right
      • the 'toggle hide empty' link to the upper right hides/shows empty elements

    • the 'resource instance tab:

      • shows the complete json instance (including the most recent validation that was performed (Note that the hapi validation seems to get confused when validating coding - don't know why, and still seems to save OK)
      • has a validation link to validate the resource against the data server
      • also has a tree view (not sure which tree view is the best one)
