I really like the idea of the SuperTool script-like things. But there were somethings that might be done differently now with Gramps 6.0. And I have some ideas. So I thought I’d take a stab at reimagining portable scripts for doing things in Gramps. And thus Gram.py Script gramplet was born. First,…

Like this? for person in people(): for citation in person.citations: for attribute in citation.attributes: row(person, citation, attribute.type.string, attribute.value ) [image]

Sounds great! [image] dsblank: Gram.py is not sensitive to what view you are on Even so, is it aware of the currently active object(s) of each type, if any? [image] dsblank: edit data Meaning, edit existing objects, not create new ones?

[image] GeorgeWilmes: Even so, is it aware of the currently active object(s) of each type, if any? Yes, all of the active objects are defined (if a view is loaded), like active_person, active_note, etc. [image] GeorgeWilmes: Meaning, edit existing objects, not create new ones? Wow… in…

Oh, it is oriented individuals, like the gedcom. It was rather a test for the challenge… I know that Note are not really (or always!) primary object and that the citation objects are (I do not know the expression in English) like an “Exception”. I rather thought as Citation as the top level. Somethi…

[image] romjerome: associations on Individuals, maybe like a relations graph! Like this? for person in people(): for ref in person.references: row(person, ref.rel, ref.reference) [image]

[image] romjerome: Citation → Sources → Repositories → Individuals → Events → Relations You can do that :slight_smile: for citation in citations(): source = citation.source for repo in source.repositories: for note in repo.notes: row(note)

You can get backreferences, just by setting the parent object? Does ‘repositories’ exist as a new built-in (hardcoded?) list of objects? This might deprecate (deprecating?) some very old addons, like for this output: [image]

[image] romjerome: You can get backreferences, just by setting the parent object? Does ‘repositories’ exist as a new built-in (hardcoded?) list of objects? This might deprecate some very old addons, like for this output: There are some short-cut/aliases for some items (like person.name is j…

Yes, proper and very quick! :clap: Can you go farther? Make a relationships graph with such type of groups [image] Most above columns are extra stuff (can skip them), but the idea behind this addon was to group (order) according to distance to the active (or root) person. A simple representatio…
