Uploading and downloading a trace

To share a trace with a teammate, you can upload it to Kolo’s servers:

$ kolo trace upload trc_01GGCDEM69YCVA8RZM6P4FMZJS

They can then download the trace:

$ kolo trace download trc_01GGCDEM69YCVA8RZM6P4FMZJS

It will then appear at the top of their list of recent traces

How to dump a specific trace to a file

To dump a trace to a file, use the kolo trace dump 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 command:

$ kolo trace load my-trace.json

You can now view the trace in VSCode.
