SubgraphLayoutStage

A SubgraphLayoutStage is an ILayoutStage that filters out all graph elements that are not part of a specific subgraph.

Remarks

The nodes that induce this subgraph can be defined via property subgraphNodes. They will be arranged by the coreLayout.

Optionally, the edges that are included in the subgraph can explicitly be defined via property subgraphEdges. This feature is useful to exclude specific edges from being handled by the coreLayout. If no provider is registered, all edges are included.

In the same way it is also possible to include/exclude node labels or edge labels via properties subgraphNodeLabels and subgraphEdgeLabels.

Constructors

Creates a new SubgraphLayoutStage instance with an optional coreLayout.

Parameters

coreLayout?: ILayoutAlgorithm
The core layout algorithm.

Properties

Gets or sets the core ILayoutAlgorithm that is wrapped by this stage.
final

Property Value

the core layout routine

Default Value

The default value is: null
Gets or sets a value that determines whether this stage should do anything but execute the coreLayout.

By default, when constructed, stages should be enabled. Users may disable a stage's functionality by setting this property to false.

Stages that can guarantee that the graph will not change can choose to not even execute the coreLayout when disabled.

final

Methods

Implementation of the ILayoutAlgorithm interface and main entry point for the layout calculation.
This implementation checks the enabled state and when it's not enabled, will delegate to the coreLayout, directly. When the stage is enabled, all the work will be delegated to applyLayoutImpl, instead.
final

Parameters

graph: LayoutGraph
The graph to apply the layout to.
Delegates the arrangement of the specified subgraph of the given graph to the coreLayout.
protected

Parameters

graph: LayoutGraph
The input graph
Returns an instance of LayoutData<TNode, TEdge, TNodeLabel, TEdgeLabel> that can be used to perform item-specific configurations for the SubgraphLayoutStage.
The generic type arguments of the created layout data are compatible with instances of LayoutGraph, but the layout data is not bound to a specific graph instance. Therefore, the created layout data still has to be passed as an argument of applyLayout in order to be applied.

Parameters

graph: LayoutGraph
the graph that determines the generic type arguments of the created layout data

Return Value

SubgraphLayoutStageData<LayoutNode, LayoutEdge, LayoutNodeLabel, LayoutEdgeLabel>
an instance of layout data that can be used to perform item-specific configurations for the given SubgraphLayoutStage.
Returns an instance of LayoutData<TNode, TEdge, TNodeLabel, TEdgeLabel> that can be used to perform item-specific configurations for the SubgraphLayoutStage.
The generic type arguments of the created layout data are compatible with instances of IGraph, but the layout data is not bound to a specific graph instance. Therefore, the created layout data still has to be passed as an argument of applyLayout in order to be applied.
This method is not available unless the module view-layout-bridge is loaded. Either load the module 'view-layout-bridge' explicitly or ensure that the LayoutExecutor type is available at runtime.

Parameters

graph?: IGraph
the graph that determines the generic type arguments of the created layout data

Return Value

SubgraphLayoutStageData<INode, IEdge, ILabel, ILabel>
an instance of layout data that can be used to perform item-specific configurations for the given SubgraphLayoutStage.
