@types/d3-force
Advanced tools
@types/d3-force provides TypeScript type definitions for the d3-force module, which is part of the D3.js library. D3-force is used for creating and managing force-directed graphs, which are a type of network visualization where nodes are positioned based on physical simulation of forces.
Force Simulation
This feature allows you to create a force simulation with nodes. The simulation applies forces to the nodes, such as charge and centering forces, to position them in a visually appealing way.
const simulation = d3.forceSimulation(nodes)
.force('charge', d3.forceManyBody())
.force('center', d3.forceCenter(width / 2, height / 2));Force Links
This feature allows you to create links between nodes in the force simulation. The links can have properties such as distance, which determines how far apart the nodes should be.
const linkForce = d3.forceLink(links)
.id(d => d.id)
.distance(50);
simulation.force('link', linkForce);Force Collide
This feature adds a collision force to the simulation, which prevents nodes from overlapping by specifying a radius for each node.
const collideForce = d3.forceCollide(10);
simulation.force('collide', collideForce);Force X and Y
These features allow you to apply forces that pull nodes towards specific x and y coordinates, respectively. The strength of the force can be adjusted.
const forceX = d3.forceX(width / 2).strength(0.1);
const forceY = d3.forceY(height / 2).strength(0.1);
simulation.force('x', forceX).force('y', forceY);ngraph.forcelayout is a force-directed layout algorithm for graph visualization. It is similar to d3-force in that it provides a way to position nodes based on physical simulation, but it is part of the ngraph ecosystem and is designed to work with other ngraph modules.
Sigma is a JavaScript library dedicated to graph drawing. It provides built-in support for force-directed layouts and is designed to handle large graphs efficiently. Unlike d3-force, Sigma is a standalone library specifically focused on graph visualization.
Cytoscape is a graph theory library for visualization and analysis. It includes various layout algorithms, including force-directed layouts. Cytoscape is more feature-rich compared to d3-force, offering a wide range of graph analysis tools and plugins.
