Implementing Splunk: Big Data Reporting and Development for Operational Intelligence

Module logic flow

The main concept of nested modules is that parent (upstream) modules affect child (downstream) modules. Looking at the first panel, the full module flow is:

<module name="ExtendedFieldSearch">
  <module name="TimeRangePicker">
    <module name="SubmitButton">
      <module name="HiddenSearch">
        <module name="ViewstateAdapter">
          <module name="HiddenFieldPicker">
            <module name="JobProgressIndicator">
              <module name="EnablePreview">
                <module name="HiddenChartFormatter">
                  <module name="JSChart">
                    <module name="ConvertToDrilldownSearch">
                      <module name="ViewRedirector">
                  <module name="ViewRedirectorLink">

Note

A reference for the modules installed in your instance of Splunk is available at /modules. In my case, the full URL is http://mysplunkserver:8000/modules ...
