This is the core package that fuels the iconic https://www.entitree.com website!
In a paper from 2013, A.J. van der Ploeg enhanced the Tidy Tree (Reingold-Tilford) algorithm to allow for variable-sized nodes, while keeping its linear runtime nature. He described the algorithm in his paper, Drawing Non-layered Tidy Trees in Linear Time. The author also provided a working Java application on GitHub at https://github.com/cwi-swat/non-layered-tidy-trees
This package take it to the next level by allowing also side nodes, very useful if you are drawing family trees and pedigrees.
npm i entitree-flex
OR
yarn add entitree-flex
It does come with TS definitions
const { layoutFromMap } = require("entitree-flex")
//or
import { layoutFromMap } from "entitree-flex"
const flatTree = {
1: {
name: "root",
width: 14,
children: [2, 3],
parents: [7]
},
2: { name: "child2" },
3: { name: "child3", children: [4, 5], spouses: [6] },
4: { name: "grandChild4" },
5: { name: "grandChild5" },
6: { name: "spouse of child 3" },
7: { name: "parent of root" },
};
const { map, maxBottom, maxLeft, maxRight, maxTop, nodes, rels } = layoutFromMap(1, flatTree [, settings])
You can play live in your browser with random trees or make your own tree for testing.
Just run yarn browser
and then open the file playground/index.html
in your broser and see the results.
Edit the playground/source.js
file to see changes.
Structure and defaults of the settings
defaultSettings = {
clone: false, // returns a copy of the input, if your application does not allow editing the original object
enableFlex: true, // has slightly better perfomance if turned off (node.width, node.height will not be read)
firstDegreeSpacing: 15, // spacing in px between nodes belonging to the same source, eg children with same parent
nextAfterAccessor: "spouses", // the side node prop used to go sideways, AFTER the current node
nextAfterSpacing: 10, // the spacing of the "side" nodes AFTER the current node
nextBeforeAccessor: "siblings", // the side node prop used to go sideways, BEFORE the current node
nextBeforeSpacing: 10, // the spacing of the "side" nodes BEFORE the current node
nodeHeight: 40, // default node height in px
nodeWidth: 40, // default node width in px
orientation: "vertical", // "vertical" to see parents top and children bottom, "horizontal" to see parents left and
rootX: 0, // set root position if other than 0
rootY: 0, // set root position if other than 0
secondDegreeSpacing: 20, // spacing in px between nodes not belonging to same parent eg "cousin" nodes
sourcesAccessor: "parents", // the prop used as the array of ancestors ids
sourceTargetSpacing: 10, // the "vertical" spacing between nodes in vertical orientation, horizontal otherwise
targetsAccessor: "children", // the prop used as the array of children ids
