Yes, the first argument of trigger is the source. You can use api or any other string. We expose the source argument to be able to sometimes distinguish between keyboard and mouse.

i.e. editor.trigger('blabla', 'actions.find')

You could execute a command, e.g. editor.trigger('actions.find')

@alexandrudima @baekya884 Note: I might be doing something wrong, so correct me if i do so.
This doesn´t seam to work on monaco version 0.15.5, or i was unable to make it work using trigger, but i was able to manually open it by calling the action directly: editor.getAction("actions.find").run()
Though i was unable to close it again.
(I used the dev version)

            background-color: #1e1e1e;
        }
        #container {
            height: 100vh;
            width: 100vw;
        }
    </style>

<body>
<div id="container"></div>
<script src="lib/vs/loader.js" type="application/javascript"></script>

<script type="application/javascript">
    require.config({paths: {'vs': 'lib/vs'}});
    require(['vs/editor/editor.main'], function () {

       editor =  monaco.editor.create(document.getElementById("container"), {
    value: "function hello() {\n\talert('Hello world!');\n}",
    language: "javascript"
});

    });
</script>
</body>
</html>
