The show() function

This document shows some usage examples of the show method of an action request.

This page contains code snippets (lines starting with >>>), which are being tested during our development workflow. The following snippet initializes the demo project used throughout this page.

>>> from lino_book.projects.avanti1.startup import *

The show() method checks whether the user has permission to see the specified actor. The rt.show() function opens an action request for robin. So the following two are equivalent:

>>> rt.show(cal.EntryStates)
