Use the wiki when you’re onboarding to a repository, explaining it to someone new, or looking for the right place to start reading code.
Before you start
- A Graphify account at app.graphify.com.
- An indexed repository. The wiki is generated from a build, so a new repository shows No wiki for this build yet until its build finishes.
- Wiki in your workspace navigation. If you don’t see it, it isn’t turned on for your workspace.
Read the wiki
1
Open it
Open Wiki in the Console and choose a Repository.
2
Pick an article
The Articles index lists every page. Use Search pages or Find in the wiki to jump to a topic.
3
Read
Each article has Key components, diagrams you can expand, and Relevant source files. On this page lists its sections, and Previous page and Next page move through the wiki in order.
4
Go to the code
Open the source opens the file. Show in the graph opens the component in Graph explorer.
Confidence labels
Ask the wiki
Select Ask the wiki (or Ask about this project) and type what you’d like to understand. Answers draw on the same graph as the wiki. For questions about one function or call path, Ask is more direct.Large repositories
For a very large graph, the wiki covers only its largest areas, and some cross-links may not resolve. If a wiki is too large to load, contact support to raise its size limit.Keyboard shortcuts
Each page lists its Relevant source files and Key components. Use Open the source to see the code, or Show in graph to find it in Graph explorer. When the wiki is Behind the latest commit, it shows Updating to the latest commit while a new build runs.
Starter questions
Ask about this project opens a panel with starter questions. You don’t need code terms:- “What does this project do? Explain it in plain language.”
- “What are the main parts of this project, and how do they work together?”
- “Where does a request or user action start in this project?”
Wikis for Google Drive folders
A synced Google Drive folder gets a wiki too, built from its documents. Its states read Sync in progress, Folder not synced and Folder sync failed, instead of the repository states. Google Drive syncing requires a paid plan.Verify and troubleshoot
How current is the wiki?
How current is the wiki?
It reflects the latest build of the repository. Check the build metadata on the page.
Can I generate a wiki locally?
Can I generate a wiki locally?
Yes. Open-source Graphify can export a Markdown wiki with
graphify export wiki. See Exports.What do Verified, Inferred and Needs review mean?
What do Verified, Inferred and Needs review mean?
Verified means read directly from the code. Inferred means worked out by analysis. Needs review means a low-confidence guess, so check the source.
