<h2><a name="Overview"></a>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 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><a name="Example"></a>Example</h2>

|
Here a basic graph example. More examples can be found in the
|
|
<a href="../examples" target="_blank">examples directory</a>.

<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">
|
|
<script type="text/javascript" src="vis/vis.js"></script>
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The class name 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>.
|
|
</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>.
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h2><a name="Data_Format"></a>Data Format</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The Graph draws nodes and edges, which are both an Array with objects.
|
|
This section describes the data format of nodes and edges.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Nodes</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Nodes typically have an <code>id</code> and <code>text</code>.
|
|
A node must contain at least a property <code>id</code>.
|
|
Nodes can have extra properties, used to define the type and style the
|
|
nodes.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
A JavaScript Array with nodes is constructed like:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<pre class="prettyprint lang-js">
|
|
var nodes = [
|
|
{
|
|
'id': 1,
|
|
'text': 'Node 1'
|
|
},
|
|
// ... more data
|
|
];
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Nodes support the following properties:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|

<code>update</code> (default), or <code>delete</code>.

<h3>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">

<h3>Packages</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The array with packages must at least contain properties <code>from</code> and
|
|
<code>to</code>.
|
|
The array can have extra properties, used to define the type and style of
|
|
individual packages.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
There are two types of packages:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><b>Automatic</b>. When no value for the <code>progress</code> is provided,
|
|
the package is automatically moved from start node to end node, and deleted
|
|
once it has reached the end node. The duration can be customized by setting
|
|
a value for <code>duration</code>.</li>
|
|
<li><b>Manual</b>. When a value for the <code>progress</code> is provided,
|
|
the package is positioned at the given progress between start and end node.
|
|
The progress can be updated dynamically via the method <code>addPackages</code>,
|
|
and can be deleted via the method <code>deletePackage</code>. Manual packages
|
|
must have an id specified, in order to be able to update and delete them lateron.
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
A JavaScript Array with packages is constructed as:

<h2><a name="Dynamic_Data"></a>Dynamic Data</h2>
|

<p>
|

The Graph is normally rendered using the method <code>setData</code>.
|
|
The graph can handle dynamic data in two ways:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<b>Animation</b>
|
|
A set with historical data can be animated over time.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<b>Changeset</b>
|
|
A drawn Graph can be updated by appending a changeset to the Graph.
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h3><a name="Animation"></a>Animation</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Historical data can be animated over time.
|
|
To create an animation, the data sets with nodes, edges, and
|
|
packages must have a property <code>timestamp</code>,
|
|
and has a property <code>action</code> describing the
|
|
<a href="#Changeset">change</a> (create, update, or delete).
|
|
The Graph will automatically create an animation which runs from
|
|
the earliest to the latest encountered timestamp.
|
|
When the Graph is rendered at a certain timestamp,
|
|

The animation state and speed can be manipulated using methods
|
|
<code>animationSetAcceleration</code>,

|
<code>animationSetDuration</code>,

<code>animationSetFramerate</code>,

<code>animationStart</code>,
|

<h3><a name="Changeset"></a>Changeset</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The data of a rendered Graph can be changed dynamically.
|
|
Data can be updated by appending a changeset to the Graph
|
|
using methods <code>addNodes</code>, <code>addEdges</code>, and <code>addPackages</code>.
|
|
|
|
The appended data can contain new nodes, edges, and packages, but can
|
|
also adjust existing elements.
|
|
For example, the title of a Node or the width of a link can be updated.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The changeset is a regular Array like used
|
|
The <code>action</code> property describes one of the following changes
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<b>create</b> Create an element (node, link, or package).
|
|
When the new element has an id which already exists, the existing
|
|
element will be overwritten.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<b>update</b> Update an element, create when not existing.
|
|
Only applicable when the element has an id.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<b>delete</b> Delete an existing element.

<h2><a name="Events"></a>Events</h2>
