<h2 id="Overview">Overview</h2>
<p>
  Graph is a visualization to display graphs and networks consisting of nodes
  and edges. The visualization is easy to use and supports custom shapes,
  styles, colors, sizes, images, and more.
</p>

<p>
  The graph visualization works smooth on any modern browser for up to a
  few hundred nodes and edges.
</p>

<p>
  To get started with Graph, install or download the
  <a href="http://visjs.org" target="_blank">vis.js</a> library.
</p>

<h2 id="Example">Example</h2>
<p>
  Here a basic graph example. Note that unlike the
  <a href="timeline.html">Timeline</a>, the Graph does not need the vis.css
  file.
</p>

<p>
  More examples can be found in the
  <a href="../examples" target="_blank">examples directory</a>.
</p>

<pre class="prettyprint lang-html">&lt;!doctype html&gt;

&lt;head&gt;
  &lt;title&gt;Graph | Basic usage&lt;/title&gt;

  &lt;script type="text/javascript" src="../../dist/vis.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
&lt;/head&gt;

&lt;body&gt;

&lt;div id="mygraph"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;
  // create an array with nodes
  var nodes = [
    {id: 1, label: 'Node 1'},
    {id: 2, label: 'Node 2'},
    {id: 3, label: 'Node 3'},
    {id: 4, label: 'Node 4'},
    {id: 5, label: 'Node 5'}
  ];

  // create an array with edges
  var edges = [
    {from: 1, to: 2},
    {from: 1, to: 3},
    {from: 2, to: 4},
    {from: 2, to: 5}
  ];

  // create a graph
  var container = document.getElementById('mygraph');
  var data= {
    nodes: nodes,
    edges: edges,
  };
  var options = {
    width: '400px',
    height: '400px'
  };
  var graph = new vis.Graph(container, data, options);
&lt;/script&gt;

&lt;/body&gt;
&lt;/html&gt;
</pre>


<h2 id="Loading">Loading</h2>
<p>
  Install or download the <a href="http://visjs.org" target="_blank">vis.js</a> library.
  in a subfolder of your project. Include the library script in the head of your html code:
</p>

<pre class="prettyprint lang-html">
&lt;script type="text/javascript" src="vis/dist/vis.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
</pre>


The constructor of the Graph is <code>vis.Graph</code>.
<pre class="prettyprint lang-js">var graph = new vis.Graph(container, data, options);</pre>

The constructor accepts three parameters:
<ul>
  <li>
    <code>container</code> is the DOM element in which to create the graph.
  </li>
  <li>
    <code>data</code> is an Object containing properties <code>nodes</code> and
    <code>edges</code>, which both contain an array with objects.
    Optionally, data may contain an <code>options</code> object.
    The parameter <code>data</code> is optional, data can also be set using
    the method <code>setData</code>. Section <a href="#Data_Format">Data Format</a>
    describes the data object.
  </li>
  <li>
    <code>options</code> is an optional Object containing a name-value map
    with options. Options can also be set using the method
    <code>setOptions</code>.
    Section <a href="#Configuration_Options">Configuration Options</a>
    describes the available options.
  </li>
</ul>

<h2 id="Data_Format">Data Format</h2>
<p>
  The <code>data</code> parameter of the Graph constructor is an object
  which can contain different types of data.
  The following properties are supported in the <code>data</code> object:
</p>

<ul>
  <li>
    <span style="font-weight: bold;">A property pair <code>nodes</code> and <code>edges</code></span>,
    both containing an Array with objects. The data formats are described
    in the sections <a href="#Nodes">Nodes</a> and <a href="#Edges">Edges</a>.
    Example:
<pre class="prettyprint lang-js">
var data = {
  nodes: [...],
  edges: [...]
};
</pre>
  </li>
  <li>
    <span style="font-weight: bold;">A property <code>dot</code></span>,
    containing a string with data in the
    <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DOT_language" target="_blank">DOT language</a>.
    DOT support is described in section <a href="#DOT_language">DOT_language</a>.

    Example:
<pre class="prettyprint lang-js">
var data = {
  dot: '...'
};
</pre>
  </li>
  <li>
    <span style="font-weight: bold;">A property <code>options</code></span>,
    containing an object with global options.
    Options can be provided as third parameter in the graph constructor
    as well. Section <a href="#Configuration_Options">Configuration Options</a>
    describes the available options.

  </li>
</ul>

<h3 id="Nodes">Nodes</h3>

<p>
  Nodes typically have an <code>id</code> and <code>label</code>.
  A node must contain at least a property <code>id</code>.
  Nodes can have extra properties, used to define the shape and style of the
  nodes.
</p>

<p>
  A JavaScript Array with nodes is constructed like:
</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-js">
var nodes = [
  {
    id: 1,
    label: 'Node 1'
  },
  // ... more nodes
];
</pre>


<p>
  Nodes support the following properties:
</p>

    <td>Radius for the node. Applicable for all shapes except <code>box</code>,

      <code>value</code>.
      <br><br>

      When a property <code>label</code> is provided,
      this label will be displayed inside the shape in case of shapes
      <code>box</code>, <code>circle</code>, <code>ellipse</code>,

<h3 id="Edges">Edges</h3>

<p>
  Edges are connections between nodes.
  An edge must at least contain properties <code>from</code> and
  <code>to</code>, both referring to the <code>id</code> of a node.
  Edges can have extra properties, used to define the type and style.
</p>

<p>
  A JavaScript Array with edges is constructed as:
</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-js">
var edges = [
  {
    from: 1,
    to: 3
  },
  // ... more edges

<h3 id="DOT_language">DOT language</h3>

<p>
  Graph supports data in the
  <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DOT_language" target="_blank">DOT language</a>.
  To provide data in the DOT language, the <code>data</code> object must contain
  a property <code>dot</code> with a String containing the data.
</p>

<p>
  Example usage:
</p>

<pre class="prettyprint lang-js">
// provide data in the DOT language
var data = {
  dot: 'digraph {1 -> 1 -> 2; 2 -> 3; 2 -- 4; 2 -> 1 }'

<h2 id="Configuration_Options">Configuration Options</h2>

<p>
  Options can be used to customize the graph. Options are defined as a JSON object.

<h3 id="Groups">Groups</h3>

<p>It is possible to specify custom styles for groups of nodes.
  Each node having assigned to this group gets the specified style.
  The options <code>groups</code> is an object containing one or multiple groups,

  A group can have the following styles:

<pre class="prettyprint lang-js">
function onSelect() {
  alert('selected nodes: ' + graph.getSelection());
}

vis.events.addListener(graph, 'select', onSelect);
