Loading an external script to a data table

Hegedus1 — Fri, 09 Jun 2023 18:15:06 GMT

Hi,

Workflow involves taking a csv file importing and doing a bunch of calculations and then creating a summary table of important metrics. I also have a script that creates a user interface with column switcher and local data filters (shout out to txnelson). I would like to keep the code for table creation and manipulation separate from the creating the user interface. What I would like to do is call the interface script from the main loading one and also add that interface script to summary data table. The intent is that the user could accidentally close the interface window and I do not want to have to rerun the entire import script just to get interface again.

What is the preferred way of doing this?

Andy

// The dt below is a reference to the data table you want the User
// Interface code add to
dt << New Script( "User Interface",
	// Your User Interface Code
