Make graphs / pages shareable via URL #706

Open ahpook opened 2 months ago

ahpook commented 2 months ago

Describe the bug I can't find a way to share a specific page of graphs with other people - Ideally there'd be a way to copy/paste the url to a specific graph that preserves my current view options, but it'd also be helpful to share the default results for a specific repo/dataset.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Load up the data for a specific repository
  2. Copy the URL
  3. Paste the URL into a new anonymous browser window

Expected behavior The new browser window should have the same view as the original one

@ahpook Great idea! We will keep that in mind. Have you checked out using the "download graphs as png" functionality on the graphs for the time being?

ahpook commented 2 months ago

@cdolfi Yes, the static download is OK - but ideally I'd like to send someone a link to a filtered set of repositories, so they can start exploring the same info.

Yes 100% agree. We will loop back around on this one the redesign(https://www.figma.com/file/e9ylKHtU7YgWyuXBkI9bm0/Augur-8Knot?type=design&node-id=1%3A63&mode=design&t=tZrTpxVfy5oBKpFO-1) is finished. If it ends up being something a GH engineer would like to work on in the mean time would be happy to talk to them!
