Feature Request: Refer to the current fava filters (time, account, filter) in link field

as per above, is that possible to refer to the fava's current filters, including time, account and filter?

Thanks

hi @ileodo, yes that's possible, take a look at the example dashboard:

Line 592 in 4d6340b

const time = new URLSearchParams(window.location.search).get("time") ?? "";

You can access the account and filter in the same way.

thanks @andreasgerstmayr, it would be great to just support a special variable name in the link filed which will be replaced with the time instead of manually do it in js.

I'd like to keep the extension as simple as possible, and don't plan to support this for now.

@ileodo: Related to this, just wanted to share this snippet of code that makes the above request pretty easy to implement within the new utils configuration:

# dashboards.yml

utils:
  inline: |
    const linkReplacer = () => {
      const windowUrl = new URL(window.location.href);
      window.document.querySelectorAll('h2 a').forEach(function (el) {
        const linkUrl = new URL(el.href);
        linkUrl.searchParams.set('time', windowUrl.searchParams.get('time'));
        linkUrl.searchParams.set('conversion', windowUrl.searchParams.get('conversion'));
        el.href = linkUrl;
      });
    }

    linkReplacer();

This JS snippet runs after each page load, loops through all the dashboard's panel headlines, and updates their href with the current page's time and conversion parameters. It's easy to extend with other dynamic parts as well.

@mattmattmatt thanks for the snippet!

I've added a generic way to copy Fava's filter parameters to all links in #41.
