Layout Transformation Mechanism 2

G6 provides two layout transformations:

  • updateLayout(params): Layout methods and configurations transformation;
  • changeData(): Data transformation.

Layout Methods and Configuration Transformation

Interface Definition:

/**
 * Change the layout or its configurations
 * @param {String | object} cfg New layout configurations
 * If the cfg is a String or an object with the property type, and the type is different from the current layout method, the layout method will be changed into the new one;
 * Only change the configurations for the current layout otherwise
 */
updateLayout(cfg);

Change the Layout Method:
If the cfg is a String or an object with property type, and the type is different from the current layout method, the layout method will be changed into the new one;

Change the Configurations Only:
If the cfg is an object without property type, or the type is the same as the current layout method, only the configurations for the current layout will be changed.

Data Transformation

Interface Definition:

/**
 * Change the source data, render the graph with new data
 * @param {object} data source data
 * @return {object} this
 */
changeData(data);

Transformation Example

Expected Effect

In the first stage, the graph is arranged by random layout. Transform to force layout with node overlappings after 2000ms, force layout without node overlappings after 4000ms, change data to data2 after 6000ms.
