JavaScript diagramming library that uses SVG and HTML for rendering.

简体中文 | English

Features

• 🌱　easy-to-customize: based on well known SVG/HTML/CSS or React/Vue to custom nodes and edges
• 🚀　out-of-the-box: built-in 10+ plugins, such as selection, dnd, redo/undo, snapline, minimap, etc.
• 🧲　data-driven: base on MVC architecture, you can focus on data logic and business logic
• 💯　highly-event-driven: you can react on any event that happens inside the graph

Installation

NPM/Yarn

# npm
$ npm install @antv/x6 --save

# yarn
$ yarn add @antv/x6

CDNs

For learning purposes, you can use the latest version with one of the CDN:

• https://unpkg.com/@antv/x6/dist/x6.js
• https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@antv/x6/dist/x6.js
• https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/antv-x6/1.3.20/x6.js

<script src="https://unpkg.com/@antv/x6/dist/x6.js"></script>

For production, we recommend linking to a specific version number to avoid unexpected breakage from newer versions:

• https://unpkg.com/@antv/x6@1.1.1/dist/x6.js
• https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@antv/x6@1.1.1/dist/x6.js
• https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/antv-x6/1.1.1/x6.js

<script src="https://unpkg.com/@antv/x6@1.1.1/dist/x6.js"></script>

Usage

Step 1: specify a container the render the diagram.

<div id="container" style="width: 600px; height: 400px"></div>

Step 2: render nodes and edges.

// import from node_modules
import { Graph } from '@antv/x6'
// or use the global variable `X6` exported from CDN links
// const { Graph } = X6

// Create an instance of Graph.
const graph = new Graph({
  container: document.getElementById('container'),
  grid: true
})

// Render source node.
const source = graph.addNode({
  x: 300,
  y: 40,
  width: 80,
  height: 40,
  label: 'Hello',
})

// Render target node.
const target = graph.addNode({
  x: 420,
  y: 180,
  width: 80,
  height: 40,
  label: 'World',
})

// Render edge from source to target.
graph.addEdge({
  source,
  target,
})

App Demos Build with X6

Flowchart

A flowchart is a type of diagram that represents a workflow or process. A flowchart can also be defined as a diagrammatic representation of an algorithm, a step-by-step approach to solving a task.

DAG

DAG is short for Directed Acyclic Graph, which is a directed graph with no directed cycles. It was originally a common data structure in the computer field. Due to the excellent characteristics brought by the unique topology structure, it is often used to deal with dynamic programming, searching for the shortest path in navigation, data compression and other algorithms.

ERD

An entity relationship diagram (ERD) shows the relationships of entity sets stored in a database. An entity in this context is an object, a component of data. An entity set is a collection of similar entities. These entities can have attributes that define its properties. By defining the entities, their attributes, and showing the relationships between them, an ER diagram illustrates the logical structure of databases.

Development

This repo is base on lerna with the following structor:

We need to install some necessary global tools before getting started.

# install yarn and lerna
$ npm install yarn -g
$ npm install lerna -g

# install deps and build
$ yarn bootstrap

Then we can cd to dirs to development and debugging.

Such as, we can start examples/x6-example-features locally:

cd examples/x6-example-features

yarn start

When need to fix some bugs of X6, we can start with watch mode:

cd packages/x6

// build esm to "em" dir
yarn build:watch:esm

// build commonjs to "lib" dir
yarn build:watch:cjs
