This is an example executable importer plugin for the Rerun Viewer.
|
|
|
|
It will log C++ source code files as markdown documents.
|
|
To try it out, compile it and place it in your $PATH, then open a C++ source file with Rerun (`rerun file.cpp`).
|
|
|
|
Consider using the [`send_columns`](https://ref.rerun.io/docs/cpp/stable/classrerun_1_1RecordingStream.html#ad17571d51185ce2fc2fc2f5c3070ad65) API for importers that ingest time series data from a file.
|
|
This can be much more efficient that the stateful `log` API as it allows bundling
|
|
component data over time into a single call consuming a continuous block of memory.
