Changed callbacks language from JavaScript to Jexl
To allow users to safely and seamlessly share advanced configurations in sessions, we now use Jexl to express configuration callbacks. Note that this is a breaking change, function()-style callbacks will no longer work.
For details, see the callbacks section of our configuration guide.
Fetch intron and upstream/downstream sequences
We also have several other improvements including the ability to get intron and upstream/downstream sequence in the feature details
Interactive documentation using Storybook
Another new update is the first release of our interactive Storybook docs for the embeddable React Linear Genome View. The docs contain live examples of how the LGV component can be used, along with source-code examples. The site can be found here.
We have added a dropdown to enhance navigation between stack of active widgets. The update also adds a minimize button to allow quick access to full screen JBrowse web.
See below for demos of the new navigation UI.
