# Base Props <>

Name	Type	Default Value(s)	Description
height	number	400	Height in px of the chart container
width	number	400	Width in px of the chart container
mainTitle	string	'Circle Packing Title'	The dynamic tag of title for the chart (or you can create your own separately). See highestHeadingLevel prop for how tags get assigned.
subTitle	string	'This is the circle packing chart's subtitle'	The dynamic tag for a sub title for the chart (or you can create your own separately). See highestHeadingLevel prop for how tags get assigned.

# Data Props <>

Name	Type	Default Value(s)	Description
nodeAccessor	string	'childNode'	Key used to determine circle's child, must be a unique child.
parentAccessor	string	'parentNode'	Key used to determine circle's parent.
sizeAccessor	string	'value'	Key used to determine circle size.
uniqueID	string	undefined	ID used to identify chart (must be unique per chart), helpful for validation messages. Defaults to UUID v4 standard.
data	object[]	undefined	Data used to create chart, an array of objects which includes keys that map to above accessors. We leverage d3-hierarchy#stratify for data structuring, refer to requirements documented for that algorithm for additional data specifications.
dataDepth	number	5	Sets the number of data layers to show on circle pack, combine with displayDepth to improve performance of deeply nested hierarchies.
displayDepth	number	2	Sets the number of visible layers displayed at one time on circle pack, combine with dataDepth to improve performance of deeply nested hierarchies.

# Accessibility Props <>

accessibility	object (custom type)	IAccessibilityType	Manages messages and settings for chart accessibility, see object definition below.

IAccessibilityType Definition

Name (accessibility.)	Type	Default Value(s)	Description
longDescription	string	''	Use this to add a helpful description of the chart.
executiveSummary	string	''	Use this to describe the biggest takeaway of the chart.
purpose	string	''	Use this to describe the purpose of this particular chart.
contextExplanation	string	''	Use this to explain any controls or content on your page that affect or are affected by this chart.
title	string	''	Gives the chart an alternate title to be used by screen readers.
elementDescriptionAccessor	string	''	Optional key used to add an additional description to any element, from your data.
statisticalNotes	string	''	Use this to provide any statistical explanations, such as trends, clusters, patterns, or outliers.
structureNotes	string	''	Use this to describe special visual features of the chart, such as sorting, color grouping, etc.
includeDataKeyNames	boolean	false	If true, includes data key names in voice over description of each element. EG "Year over year growth: 5.6%" instead of just "5.6%"
hideDataTableButton	boolean	false	If true, hides the data table button (but it is still available to screen reader users).
disableValidation	boolean	false	If true, disables validations of accessibility props for this chart. Validation is intended to be used during development; upon completion, validation should be disabled.
elementsAreInterface	any/boolean	null	Defaults to null. Set to true if interacting with the elements in this chart affects your application. Otherwise, must be set to false.
onChangeFunc	function	undefined	Custom event listener (changeFunc) that enables dev to control accessibility page experience when chart data updates.
showSmallLabels	boolean	false	Defaults to false. Set to true if you would like to display labels on small elements that are likely to overlap. Note, this could impact accessibility of your graphic.
hideStrokes	boolean	false	Defaults to false. Set to true if you would like to remove automated stroke outlines from the chart, note, this could impact accessibility of your graphic.
hideTextures	boolean	false	Defaults to false. Set to true if you would like to remove textures from the chart, note, this could impact accessibility of your graphic.
keyboardNavConfig	IKeyConfig	{ disabled: false }	Defaults disabled to false. May be set to true if accessibility.elementsAreInterface = false and suppressEvents = true. This will disable keyboard navigation and simplify chart instructions for screen reader users.
showExperimentalTextures	boolean	false	Defaults to false. Set to true if you would like leverage our textures which are still undergoing research and development.

// accessibility = { ...accessibility, onChangeFunc: d => changeHandler(d)}

clickHighlight	object[]	[]	Data used to track chart selections, an array of objects which includes keys that map to above accessors.
clickStyle	object (custom type)	IClickStyleType	Sets the styling of elements when they are selected, see object definition below.
onHoverEvent	function	undefined	When hoverEvent event occurs (e.g., mouse hover/keyboard focus on chart geometry), this event handler will be called with the custom event object (e.g., e), containing data and target node at e.detail {data: d, target: n}. You will need to construct your own functionality of what actions to take within the callback.
onMouseOutEvent	function	undefined	When mouseOutEvent event occurs (e.g., mouse/keyboard blur on chart geometry), this event handler will be called, and has no data object. You will need to construct your own functionality of what actions to take within the callback.
hoverHighlight	object	{}	Datum object used to track active chart element, the object should include keys that map to above accessors.
hoverStyle	object (custom type)	IHoverStyleType	Sets the styling of a elements when they are hovered/focused, see object definition below.

onInitialLoadEvent	function	undefined	When initalLoad event occurs (e.g., chart is mounted to window), this event handler will be called with the custom event object (e.g., e), containing the corresponding chartID at e.detail. You will need to construct your own functionality of what actions to take within the callback.
onDrawStartEvent	function	undefined	When drawStart event occurs (e.g., chart render function is called), this event handler will be called with the custom event object (e.g., e), containing the corresponding chartID at e.detail. You will need to construct your own functionality of what actions to take within the callback.
onDrawEndEvent	function	undefined	When drawEnd event occurs (e.g., chart's stencil lifecycle completes), this event handler will be called with the custom event object (e.g., e), containing the corresponding chartID at e.detail. You will need to construct your own functionality of what actions to take within the callback.
