About The Project

Graph-gl is a minimum package dedicated to render graphs and handel interactions based on WebGL.

Built With

• three.js
• cash-dom
• underscore.js

Notification

Check out npm or github release branch for latest version.

The interaction feature is under development and will be released very soon.

Getting Started

To get a local copy up and running follow these simple steps.

Prerequisites

This is an example of how to list things you need to use the software and how to install them.

• npm

npm install npm@latest -g

Installation

Using the lib

The library could be installed with

npm install vidi-graph-gl

Develop the lib

1. Clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/haicatw/graph-gl.git

2. Install NPM packages

npm install

3. Lint

npm run lint

4. Build

npm run build

Usage

1. Import the library

   import GraphGL from "vidi-graph-gl";
   

2. Initialize the instance

   const graphGLInstance = new GraphGL({ selector: "#container" });
   

3. Load your graph

   const myGraph = {
       nodes: [
           { id: 0, x: 0, y: 0, size: 40, label: "testing..." },
           { id: 1, x: 3.4, y: -5.2, size: 30, borderWidth: 10, label: "testing" },
           { id: 2, x: 0, y: 10, size: 30, borderWidth: 30, label: "testing label"},
       ],
       edges: [{ id: 0, source: 2, target: 1, color: "#2ec1ac", width: 1 }],
   };
   graphGLInstance.readGraph(myGraph);
   

   

4. Update visualization

   graphGLInstance.refresh();
   

5. Update graph data

   for(const node of graphGLInstance.nodes()) { // or .edges() for updating edges
       node.color = '#000000'
       node.borderWidth = 40
       node.opacity = 0.5
       node.borderColor = '#2ec1ac'
       node.size = 40
       node.label = "new label"
   }
   graphGLInstance.refresh();
   

   

6. Clear current graph data

   graphGLInstance.clear();
