How to dump a specific trace to a file

command:
$ kolo trace dump --file my-trace.json trc_01GGCDEM69YCVA8RZM6P4FMZJS
This will write the trace to the file my-trace.json
in the current directory. You can now give this trace file to another person.
How to load a trace from a trace file
To load a trace from a file, say trace.json
, use the kolo trace load

You can now view the trace in VSCode.
