A simplified Gantt-Chart representation tool for the browser, leveraging the power of CSS-grid \o/

Usage

In the demo directory you find some examples on how to use this library. The recommended way is to use the library to load a JSON file from the server, containing all tasks to display in the Gantt-chart.

<script src="../dist/iife/garganttua.js" type="module" async></script>
<garganttua-gantt-chart src="./data.json" start="2020-12-01" end="2021-03-15" groups="collapsable"></garganttua-gantt-chart>

Element Config

The garganttua-gantt-chart custom element has some attributes you have to provide as configuration:

• src - Required. See "JSON data reference" for the format.
• start - Required. this reflects the start of the window for the Gantt chart. Tasks will be arranged related to the start and end date of the chart
• end - Required. this reflects the end of the window for the Gantt chart. Tasks will be arranged related to the start and end date of the chart
• groups - add "collapsable" as groups attribute if you want to have the sub groups hidden initially. Toggle Buttons to toggle the visibility are attached automatically.

JSON data reference

The type definitions can be found in lib/task-list.ts. But the data structure of the provided JSON data is very easy: (An extensive example can be seen in demo/data.json)

tasks.json

[
  {
    type: "task", // simple task
    description: "some string", // some short task description
    start?: "2021-01-01", // date formatted as ISO date string: yyyy-mm-dd
    end?: "2021-01-15", // date formatted as ISO date string: yyyy-mm-dd
    content?: "SGVsbG8gV29ybGQh" // b64 encoded HTML or text,
    state?: string, // adds state classes to the task schedules, so they can be styled
    link?: string // adds a link to the task description
  },
  ...
  {
    type: "group"
    description: "some string"
    tasks: [ ... ] // a group has some tasks or also new groups
  }
]
