test/e2e/tests/data-explorer/data-explorer-summary-panel.test.ts

 		await dataExplorer.summaryPanel.search('snickerdoodle');
 		await dataExplorer.summaryPanel.expectColumnCountToBe(0);
-		// await dataExplorer.summaryPanel.expectEmptyState(); // <--- no empty state created in UI yet
+		//await dataExplorer.summaryPanel.expectEmptyState(); // <--- no empty state created in UI yet


@midleman I enabled the e2e tests we were skipping since they should be passing now. I left this empty state check commented out since we don't have any special UI for that. I don't think we plan to add any UI for this state at this point so we may just want to remove this check entirely.

Sounds good, you are welcome to remove or when I come back for round 2 of updating/adding to these tests I can do it then. 🎉

-			await this.clearColumnSortingButton.click();
+			await this.sortBy('Original');


@midleman We haven't added any UI affordances for clearing the summary panel sort. The only way to do that right now is by setting the sort value back to the original sort value. I have updated this helper to do that here.

src/vs/workbench/services/positronDataExplorer/common/utils.ts

- * @param endIndex The end index.
- * @returns An array with the specified index range.
- */
-export const arrayFromIndexRange = (startIndex: number, endIndex: number) =>


The columnSchemaCache file is the only one that uses this function. It looks like @softwarenerd copied this function into that file. I'm removing this from the util file since its not used by any of the other data explorer cache files.

src/vs/workbench/services/positronDataExplorer/common/tableSummaryCache.ts

A lot of the changes in this file involve undoing the index mapping changes I made here since those now live in the layout manager. this file should be almost back to parity with how it looked prior to any of my changes. The main changes are in the update function now where we handle the search/sort params

dhruvisompura · 2025-09-09T16:45:21Z

src/vs/workbench/services/positronDataExplorer/common/tableSummaryCache.ts

 * Constants.
 */
 const TRIM_CACHE_TIMEOUT = 3000;
-const OVERSCAN_FACTOR = 3;


This is no longer needed because we determine the overscan total of rows/columns in the layer above the cache (the summary panel instance layer).

dhruvisompura · 2025-09-09T16:46:20Z

src/vs/workbench/services/positronDataExplorer/common/tableSummaryCache.ts

-	 * behind the USE_DATA_EXPLORER_SUMMARY_PANEL_ENHANCEMENTS_KEY setting
-	 * @param updateDescriptor The update descriptor containing the new search and sort parameters
-	 */
-	async update2(updateDescriptor: UpdateDescriptor): Promise<void> {


We no longer need a separate update function since the logic for handling search/sort is quite simple with all of the mapping logic moving into the layout manager.

dhruvisompura · 2025-09-09T16:49:09Z

src/vs/workbench/services/positronDataExplorer/browser/tableSummaryDataGridInstance.tsx

-		 * Updates the layout entries.
-		 * @param state The backend state, if known; otherwise, undefined.
-		 */
-		const updateLayoutEntries = async (state?: BackendState) => {


This function has been moved lower down in the file and handles the search/sort.

The test updates look good, I will expand these tests today/tomorrow!

juliasilge

This is looking so good!

I have a question about some behavior I am seeing here:

blank-summary-panel.mov

If you first search and then try to resize some part of the waffle, I see the summary panel blank out.

I am happy to have this fixed in a followup PR.

I noticed this issue as well and am looking into it! I'd prefer resolving this in a follow up if we're okay with that (most likely in the draft PR I have up here: #9220).

this lgtm with the follow up work outlined by others here 💯

@midleman It looks like one of the failing e2e tests is caused by the bug that me and @juliasilge noticed. I'm going to try and push a fix for that in this branch before merging to avoid so we don't have to deal with a failing e2e test.
