Flamingo Fact Checker#

Flamingo Fact Checker (zip file in utils directory) is a chrome extension to assist devs with tracking facts as they move through the UI.

Features#

  • Fact tracking - View fact values live on screen.
  • Live facts - shows the facts associated with the fields on the page currently being viewed.
  • Telescope - View fact documentation and live values of the dependencies inline. Requires environment variable VITE_ENABLE_FLAMINGO_TELESCOPE to be set to true.
  • Import / Export of factgraph - click on the extension button in Chrome to robustly import or export a factgraph.
  • Import / Export of fact names - click on the extension button in Chrome to track a group of facts.

How to enable telescope#

The data for the fact definitions is rather large and I didn't want to force everyone to download it. So this feature is available only on local dev and requires that you set an environment variable in your local environment:

export VITE_ENABLE_FLAMINGO_TELESCOPE=true

or start npm with it

VITE_ENABLE_FLAMINGO_TELESCOPE=true npm run start
