Using the Sandstorm Top Bar
When an app is running in Sandstorm, Sandstorm provides navigation elements at the top of the screen.
You can see an example here: https://sandstorm.io/vote (this redirects to a URL on alpha.sandstorm.io
).
-
Sandstorm logo: Click this to return to the homepage of the Sandstorm shell, where you can view your apps and documents.
-
Name of grain (in this case, "App Committee Voting"): Click this to rename the current grain. At the moment, the app does not know what you named this grain.
-
Size (for example, "12.9 MB"): This is the total amount of storage consumed by this particular grain. Some apps are more lightweight than others, and this allows you to get a sense of which grains are consuming a lot of resources.
-
Get Webkey link: Click this to create an API token that you can provide to mobile apps, command line automation, or other non-browser interaction methods for this grain. Any logged in user can do this.
For a grain where you are the owner, you will also see:
-
Delete: Click this, and after you confirm, Sandstorm will remove the data that supports this grain. Be careful! There is no undo.
-
Show Debug Log: Click this to see stdout and stderr from the app. (FIXME: Really both stdout and stderr? Not syslog also? Should check.)
-
Download Backup: Click this to receive a ZIP file containing the data that supports this grain -- specifically, the full contents of
/var
. Note that there is no "wrapper directory" (discussed here). Note also that if you attempt to restore this data, but you have upgraded the app, things might not work properly. -
Restart App: Click here to stop and start the app process. You should never need to click this. Probably it should move into a "Developer" menu.
