How csv preview work

[anvesh9652]

Could someone explain how the CSV preview in this PR is supposed to work? I'm not sure how to enable it or use it.

Hi @anvesh9652! Thx for being interested :)

Currently this feature is behind a feature flag. I think it was highlighted in release notes by accident.
I daily drive it already locally, but unfortunately we need few more polishing PRs to be merged to release it public.
It's totally possible to make it available next month, but it depends on @Anthony-Eid's reviewing capacity.

Once feature flag lifted - you'll get this eye icon to preview CSV/TSV/PSV/SSV

[Anthony-Eid]

@HalavicH I think it's polished enough to remove the feature flag tbh. We can keep incrementally improving it afterwards

@HalavicH @Anthony-Eid, thanks for the info and for adding this feature!

Will it be available in the next release?

Also, just curious, I noticed the PR screenshots have filters on each column, but they are not visible in the screenshots shared in this thread. Is that functionality still being worked on?

[anvesh9652]

It would be even more useful if column filtering also supported search, similar to how it's implemented in JetBrains IDEs.

[HalavicH]

@anvesh9652, filtering & sorting will be available immediately, with search. Their icons are visisble when column is hovered, or filter/sort is active (introduced in #61138 )

@HalavicH, any idea when this will be enabled? It’s been a few weeks, and I still don’t even see it in Zed Preview.

@anvesh9652, this day has come 🎉
