INI Panel Entry

This page is the short entry map for the INI panel UI shell.

Shell Module

Use the shell-facing module when an outer UI needs entry links or a read-only control view:

import {
  INI_PANEL_ENTRIES,
  createControlPageBrowserApiManifest,
  createControlPageBrowserApiMethods,
  createControlPageBrowserApiSchema,
  createIniPanelLaunchApiManifest,
  createIniPanelLaunchApiSchema,
  createIniPanelLauncherLinkViewModel,
  createIniPanelShellControlPageContract,
  createIniPanelShellIntegrationManifest,
  createIniPanelShellIntegrationSchema,
  createIniPanelShellViewModel,
  getIniPanelEntryByHref,
  getVisibleIniPanelEntries,
  createMachineSessionControlPageController,
  createMachineSessionReadonlyStatus,
  createMachineSessionReadonlyStatusApiManifest,
  readMachineSessionReadonlyStatus,
  loadMachineSessionForControlPageWorkflow,
  createControlPageSessionLoadState,
  refreshMachineSessionControlPage,
  controlPageStatusText,
  renderMachineSessionControlView,
  isSupportedIniPanelControlPageApiManifest,
  isSupportedIniPanelLaunchApiManifest,
  isSupportedIniPanelShellIntegrationManifest,
} from "../runtime/ui/ini-panel/ui-shell.js";

ui-shell.js re-exports the entry manifest, the read-only control-page controller, the unified read-only status API, the readonly-status API manifest, and the control-view renderer. It does not implement CNC behavior.

Pages

Page Path Role
Launch runtime/ui/ini-panel/launch.html Read-only entry page for available panel surfaces.
Edit and run runtime/ui/ini-panel/index.html Editable INI panel and existing run workflow surface.
Read-only control view runtime/ui/ini-panel/control-page.html Read-only control view backed by the panel API.

Visible Entries

The visible launch entries come from getVisibleIniPanelEntries():

Entry id Href Title
edit-run ./index.html Open edit and run panel
control-view ./control-page.html Open read-only control view

Launcher pages can render links from createIniPanelLauncherLinkViewModel() without reading manifest field names directly. Each item has entryId, href, and label.

Outer shells can call createIniPanelShellViewModel() when they need one read-only model with pages, launcherLinks, and controlPage helpers for mounting the existing control-page controller, refresh workflow, and renderer. Use controlPage.readStatus or readMachineSessionReadonlyStatus() when an outer shell needs one stable read of stateBundle, workflowStatus, overview, controlView, session, runReadiness, and run. Use createMachineSessionReadonlyStatusApiManifest() or controlPage.readonlyStatusApiManifest when you only need the API shape and method names. Use createIniPanelShellControlPageContract() or controlPage.contract when an outer shell needs a fast contract check for createController, loadSessionState, readStatus, refresh, renderView, the readonly status manifest, and its status fields before mounting the embedded panel. The contract lists readonly status fields for stateBundle, workflowStatus, overview, controlView, report, runReadiness, run, session, and status. The browser control page also exposes this contract through linuxCncIniPanelControlPageApi.getControlPageContract(), so real iframe-based smokes can verify the same API shape before reading the embedded panel state. Use linuxCncIniPanelControlPageApi.getControlPageApiMethods() when a browser outer page needs the exact exposed method list before calling the read-only control page API. Use createControlPageBrowserApiSchema(), createControlPageBrowserApiManifest(), or linuxCncIniPanelControlPageApi.getControlPageApiSchema() and linuxCncIniPanelControlPageApi.getControlPageApiManifest() when a browser outer page needs a versioned control-page API description before reading the embedded panel. Use isSupportedIniPanelControlPageApiManifest() or linuxCncIniPanelControlPageApi.isSupportedControlPageApiManifest() for a read-only compatibility predicate before consuming that manifest. Use linuxCncIniPanelControlPageApi.readControlPageStatus() when a browser outer page needs the same readonly status snapshot from the real embedded control page after save/load session workflows. The launch page exposes linuxCncIniPanelLaunchApi.getControlPageApiMethods() from the same shell view-model so entry pages can consume the available read-only control-page API list without loading the control-page iframe first. Use createIniPanelLaunchApiManifest() or linuxCncIniPanelLaunchApi.getLaunchApiManifest() when an outer shell needs a single read-only description of launch methods, visible entries, target pages, the control-page browser API methods, and OPFS/session persistence capabilities for machine files, session snapshots, and read-only status. Use createIniPanelLaunchApiSchema(), linuxCncIniPanelLaunchApi.getLaunchApiSchema(), or manifestVersion when an outer shell needs to check launch manifest compatibility before consuming these fields. Use isSupportedIniPanelLaunchApiManifest() or linuxCncIniPanelLaunchApi.isSupportedLaunchApiManifest() for a read-only compatibility predicate before using a launch manifest. Use createIniPanelShellIntegrationSchema(), createIniPanelShellIntegrationManifest(), linuxCncIniPanelLaunchApi.getShellIntegrationSchema(), or linuxCncIniPanelLaunchApi.getShellIntegrationManifest() when an outer shell needs one versioned read of pages, launcher links, launch API metadata, control-page API metadata, OPFS/session persistence capabilities, and current compatibility status. Use isSupportedIniPanelShellIntegrationManifest() when the outer shell needs to check that integration manifest before consuming it.

The control-page refresh workflow lives in runtime/ui/ini-panel/control-page-refresh-workflow.js. Use refreshMachineSessionControlPage() when an outer shell needs a structured refresh result with phase, statusText, view, renderResult, and error. controlPageStatusText() formats the already-observed panel status fields for the read-only status line, and createControlPageRefreshState() is the stable state-shape helper used by the workflow.

The control-page session workflow lives in runtime/ui/ini-panel/control-page-session-workflow.js. Use loadMachineSessionForControlPageWorkflow() when an outer shell needs a read-only readiness snapshot for the embedded panel API and first control view. createControlPageSessionLoadState() is the stable state-shape helper for waiting-panel, waiting-api, waiting-session, ready, and error phases.

Boundary

The entry shell only links pages and renders already-observed panel state. It does not parse G-code, infer canonical events, or implement LinuxCNC-owned tool, parameter, planner, or kinematics behavior.
