Render the Tutorial Demo | 1 |
In this chapter, we preliminary configure and render the Tutorial Demo. You will learn the common configurations of Graph.
Basic Rendering
Create a HTML Container
Create an HTML container for graph canvas, div
tag in general. G6 will append a canvas
tag to it and draw graph on the canvas
.
<body>
<div id="mountNode"></div>
<!-- Import G6 -->
<!-- ... -->
</body>
Data Preparation
The data for G6 should be JSON format, includes array properties nodes
and edges
:
<script>
// console.log(G6.Global.version);
const initData = {
// The array of nodes
nodes: [
{
id: 'node1', // String, unique and required
x: 100, // Number, the x coordinate
y: 200, // Number, the y coordinate
label: 'Source', // The label of the node
},
{
id: 'node2',
x: 300,
y: 200,
label: 'Target',
},
],
// The array of edges
edges: [
// An edge links from node1 to node2
{
source: 'node1', // String, required, the id of the source node
target: 'node2', // String, required, the id of the target node
label: 'I am an edge', // The label of the edge
},
],
};
</script>
⚠️Attention:
nodes
is an array of nodes, theid
is an unique and required property; thex
andy
are the coordinates of the node;edges
is an array of edges,source
andtarget
are required, represent theid
of the source node and theid
of the target node respectively.- The properties of node and edge are described in Built-in Nodes and Built-in Edges document.
Instantiate the Graph
The container, width, and height are required configurations when instantiating a Graph:
<script>
// const initData = { ... }
const graph = new G6.Graph({
container: 'mountNode', // String | HTMLElement, required, the id of DOM element or an HTML node
width: 800, // Number, required, the width of the graph
height: 500, // Number, required, the height of the graph
});
</script>
Load the Data and Render
Load data and render are two separated steps.
<script>
// const initData = { ... }
// const graph = ...
graph.data(data); // Load the data defined in Step 2
graph.render(); // Render the graph
</script>
The Result
After calling graph.render()
, G6 will render the graph according to the data.
Load the Real Data
In the above demo, we render a graph with two nodes and one edge defined in the code directly. For real scenario, the data might be loaded remotely. We prepare the JSON data for Tutorial Demo with the address: https://gw.alipayobjects.com/os/basement_prod/6cae02ab-4c29-44b2-b1fd-4005688febcb.json
Load the Remote Data
Modify index.html to load remote data asynchronously by fetch
, and pass it to the instance of G6 Graph:
<script>
// const graph = ...
const main = async () => {
const response = await fetch(
'https://gw.alipayobjects.com/os/basement_prod/6cae02ab-4c29-44b2-b1fd-4005688febcb.json',
);
const remoteData = await response.json();
// ...
graph.data(remoteData); // Load the remote data
graph.render(); // Render the graph
};
main();
</script>
fetch
allows us to fetch the remote data asynchronously, and controll the process byasync
/await
. If you are curious aboutfetch
andasync
/await
, please refer to: async function, Fetch API
We will get the following result with the code above:
The data has been loaded correctly. But the result is a little bit strange due to the large amount of nodes and edges. Limited by the size of canvas, part of the graph is arranged out of the view. We are going to solve all these problems now.
Here goes a part of tutorial-data.json. There are x
and y
in node data, and some of them are not in the range of width: 800, height: 600
.
{
"nodes": [
{ "id": "0", "label": "n0", "class": "c0", "x": 1000, "y": -100 },
{ "id": "1", "label": "n1", "class": "c0", "x": 300, "y": -10 }
//...
],
"edges": [
//...
]
}
G6 will render the graph according to the position information in the data once G6 finds x
and y
in the data. This mechanism satisfies the requirement that rendering the source data. To solve the problem of the graph out of the view port partially, two configurations are provided:
fitView
: Whether to fit the graph to the canvas;fitViewPadding
: The padding between the content of the graph and the borders of the canvas.
We modify the code about instantiating Graph as shown below:
const graph = new G6.Graph({
// ...
fitView: true,
fitViewPadding: [20, 40, 50, 20],
});
The result from this code shows that the graph has been fitted to the canvas:
Common Configuration
The configurations below will be used in the following Tutorial:
Name | Type | Options / Example | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
fitView | Boolean | true / false | false | Whether to fit the graph to the canvas. |
fitViewPadding | Number / Array | 20 / [ 20, 40, 50, 20 ] | 0 | The padding between the content of the graph and the borders of the canvas. |
animate | Boolean | true / false | false | Whether to activate the global animation. |
modes | Object | { default: [ 'drag-node', 'drag-canvas' ] } |
null | The set of graph interaction modes. This is a complicated concept, refer to Mode for more detial. |
defaultNode | Object | { type: 'circle', color: '#000', style: { ...... } } |
null | The default global properties for nodes, includes styles properties and other properties. |
defaultEdge | Object | { type: 'polyline', color: '#000', style: { ...... } } |
null | The default global properties for edges, includes styles properties and other properties. |
nodeStateStyles | Object | { hover: { ...... }, select: { ...... } } |
null | The style properties of nodes in different states except for default state. Such as hover, select. |
edgeStateStyles | Object | { hover: { ...... }, select: { ...... } } |
null | The style properties of edges in different states except for default state. Such as hover, select. |
