@nodl/react

A React-implementation of the Nodl framework.

This library is powered by MobX under the hood; and may be observed by an external MobX-instance for UI reactivity.

API

Circuit

The fundamental piece which renders a surface with fully interactive Nodes & Connections.

Supports the following props:

• store: CircuitStore A Circuit store which holds the internal circuit state along with associated nodes.
• className?: string An optional className to assign the Circuit.
• nodeWindowResolver?: (node: Node) => JSX.Element An optional function which can be used to render a custom "window" for given nodes.
• onConnection?(connection: Connection<unknown>) An optional callback which fires when new connections are made.
• onConnectionRemoval?(connection: Connection<unknown>) An optional callback which fires when connections are removed.
• onNodeRemoval?(node: Node) An optional callback which fires when nodes are removed.
• onSelectionChanged?(nodes: Node[]) An optional callback which fires when selected nodes changes.

const store = new CircuitStore();

store.setNodes([
    [additionNode1, { x: -220, y: 100 }],
    [additionNode2, { x: -220, y: -100 }],
    [additionNode3, { x: 220, y: 0 }]
]);

export const App = () => {
    return <Circuit store={store} />;
};

Circuit Store

The manager which is responsible for the circuit state.

Properties

• nodes: Node[] The associated nodes.
• selectedNodes: Node[] The currently selected nodes.
• selectionBounds: Bounds | null The current selected area's bounds.
• mousePosition: MousePosition Current mouse position within the Circuit surface.

Methods

• setNodes(nodesWithPosition: [Node, {x: number, y: number}][]) Used to initialize the store with nodes along with their position.
• removeNode(nodeId: Node['id']) Removes a node from the store.
• selectNodes(nodes: Node[]) Selects the given nodes.
• dispose() Disposes the store and its internal reactions.

Example

import { Node, Input, Output, schema } from '@nodl/core';
import { Circuit, CircuitStore } from '@nodl/react';
import * as React from 'react';
import { combineLatest, map } from 'rxjs';
import { z } from 'zod';

/** Declare a zod schema for value validation */
const NumberSchema = schema(z.number());

class Addition extends Node {
    name = 'Addition';

    inputs = {
        a: new Input({ name: 'A', type: NumberSchema, defaultValue: 0 }),
        b: new Input({ name: 'B', type: NumberSchema, defaultValue: 0 })
    };

    outputs = {
        output: new Output({
            name: 'Output',
            type: NumberSchema,
            observable: combineLatest([this.inputs.a, this.inputs.b]).pipe(
                map(inputs => inputs.reduce((sum, value) => sum + value), 0)
            )
        })
    };
}

/** Declare 3 addition nodes */
const additionNode1 = new Addition();
const additionNode2 = new Addition();
const additionNode3 = new Addition();

/** Connect them together */
additionNode1.outputs.output.connect(additionNode3.inputs.a);
additionNode2.outputs.output.connect(additionNode3.inputs.b);

const store = new CircuitStore();

store.setNodes([
    [additionNode1, { x: -220, y: 100 }],
    [additionNode2, { x: -220, y: -100 }],
    [additionNode3, { x: 220, y: 0 }]
]);

export const App = () => {
    return <Circuit store={store} />;
};

The React-package injects the Inter-typeface using a preconnect-link and stylesheet-link in the header when imported.
