Treeviz

This javascript module aims at providing an easy interface in order to represent tree diagrams on screen with the ability to handle dynamic data flows. The data format must be JSON.

Installation

With npm :

npm install treeviz

and then you can use it with :

import {Treeviz} from 'treeviz';

Or download this zip repository in the Github Release section and link the dist/treeviz.js file in your page directly : <script src="./dist/index.js><script>

Usage

Vanilla JavaScript

// Define a tree element where dimensions are mandatory
<div id="tree" style="height:700px; width:900px"></div>

<script>
// Define a dataset
var data = [
  { id: 1, text_1: "Father", father: null },
  { id: 2, text_1: "Child A", father: 1 },
  { id: 3, text_1: "Child B", father: 1 },
  { id: 4, text_1: "Subchild C", father: 2 }
];

// Define and configure a tree object
var myTree = Treeviz.create({
  htmlId: "tree",
  idKey: "id",
  hasFlatData: true,
  nodeColor: (nodeData) => "grey",
  relationnalField: "father",
});

// Display the tree based on the data
myTree.refresh(data);
</script>

To update the tree visually you will just have to pass new data to the refresh method like this :

myTree.refresh(data);
myTree.refresh(data_update1);
myTree.refresh(data_update2);

The tree will be clever enough to updates only the part of the trees that have been added or removed in the dataset, and so it won't redraw the entire tree.

Treeviz Example

Hierarchical data case :

var hierarchical_data_example = {
  name: "Mom",
  qty: 10,
  children: [
    { name: "Son A", qty: 3 },
    { name: "Son B", qty: 7 },
  ],
};

var myTree = Treeviz.create({
  htmlId: "tree",
  idKey: "name",
  hasFlatData: false,
  relationnalField: "children",
});

myTree.refresh(hierarchical_data_example);

API

The big part of the API is configuring the tree before passing data to it :

Treeviz.create(config);

The table below lists all the avalaible key that the config object can have

Key	Type	Default	Definition
`htmlId`	string (Required)		The HTML id tag on the page where the tree should be drawn. It must have a width and an height specified
`idKey`	string	"id"	The key in a data item representing the unique identifier of a node
`relationnalField`	string	"father"	In case of flat dataset, usually the relationnal field between each node is the field representing the father of the node, linking it to the id of the field. (See example below).
`hasFlatData`	boolean	true	Specify whether the data passed to the tree is flat or already hierarchical
`hasPan`	boolean	false	Toggle the ability to pan the tree
`hasZoom`	boolean	false	Toggle the ability to zoom the tree
`nodeWidth`	number	160	Width of a node in px
`nodeHeight`	number	100	Height of a node in px
`linkColor`	function	(node: NodeData) => "#ffcc80"	Color of the link
`linkWidth`	function	(node: NodeData) => 10	Width of the link
`linkShape`	"quadraticBeziers" \| "orthogonal" \| "curve"	"quadraticBeziers"	Shape of the link
`renderNode`	function	(node: NodeData) => null	HTML template for every node
`isHorizontal`	boolean	true	Direction of the tree. If true, the tree expands from left to right. If false, it goes from top to bottom
`onNodeClick`	function	(node: NodeData) => null	Function handling the event when someone click on it
`onNodeMouseEnter`	function	(node: NodeData) => null	Function handling the event when someone hover a node
`onNodeMouseLeave`	function	(node: NodeData) => null	Function handling the event when the mouse pointer leaves a node
`mainAxisNodeSpacing`	number or "auto"	300	Set the distance in pixels between two depths in the tree. If the value is `auto` it will automatically display the tree to fit the size of the container.
`secondaryAxisNodeSpacing`	number	1.25	Set the distance between nodes in the same level as a coefficient of node dimensions. Recommended to have the value superior to 1
`marginTop`	number	1.25	Set the margin between the SVG element and the tree
`marginBottom`	number	1.25	Set the margin between the SVG element and the tree
`marginLeft`	number	1.25	Set the margin between the SVG element and the tree
`marginRight`	number	1.25	Set the margin between the SVG element and the tree
`duration`	number	600	The duration of the animation transition between layouts
`data`	any		Needed for Typescript projects only to type the `NodeData` argument

And then, we have the NodeData type that is passed as callback of some functions: type NodeData { data: // the data of each item settings: // the settings object }
