IafKgraphUI

Use iaf-kgraph-ui to render a knowledge graph with the Canvas component and utilize its store and various context controllers and hooks.

Install

npm install @dtplatform/iaf-kgraph-ui

Import

import {  Canvas,  ConfigContext,  ConfigController,  RightMenuController,  GraphBoundsController,  store,  NodeMenuController,  LoadMoreDialogController,} from "@dtplatform/iaf-kgraph-ui";

Usage

Create your own KnowledgeGraph component by using the available library components and your own customizations.

For the most basic knowledge graph canvas, import and use the components described in Basic knowledge graph canvas.

To add an on-node-click menu above each node that the user can use to edit, delete, or hightlight the clicked node, or add a new node in relation to the current, see NodeMenu and NodeMenuController.

To add a right-click menu for nodes, see RightMenuController.

To add functionality to load an additional 25 nodes at each button click, see LoadMoreDialogController.

Important: To ensure that your KnowledgeGraph component has access to the necessary context data and functions, when you import and use the component in a parent component, wrap it in the context controllers described in Higher-level wrappers.

Basic knowledge graph canvas

For the most basic setup of just the knowledge graph canvas, nest the following components as described below:

<ConfigController graphConfig={graphConfig}>  <Provider store={store}>    <GraphBoundsController>      <GraphContainer>        <Canvas />      </GraphContainer>    </GraphBoundsController>  </Provider></ConfigController>

Canvas

Places graph nodes on a canvas. The Canvas component and any custom components require a graph container you define.

GraphContainer

Create your own GraphContainer component to define the viewport for the knowledge graph canvas.

The following example invokes the width and height values from ConfigContext as well as some style properties.

function GraphContainer({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) {  useConfigSync();
  const { config } = useContext(ConfigContext)!;
  return (    <div      id={"knowledge-graph-container"}      style={{        position: "relative",        width: config.width,        height: config.height,        overflow: "hidden",        ...config.style,      }}      className={config.className}    >      {children}    </div>  );}

You can then wrap the Canvas component with your GraphContainer component.

  <ConfigController graphConfig={graphConfig}>    <Provider store={store}>      <GraphBoundsController>        <GraphContainer>          <Canvas />        </GraphContainer>      </GraphBoundsController>    </Provider>  </ConfigController>

GraphBoundsController

Controls the graph boundaries

Store provider

Stores the reducers and middleware

ConfigController

Maintains context of your config

NodeMenu and NodeMenuController

To add a menu for each node that the user can use to edit, delete, or hightlight the clicked node, or add a new node in relation to the current, use the NodeMenu component and wrap it with the NodeMenuController context component:

  <ConfigController graphConfig={graphConfig}>    <Provider store={store}>      {/* Controls the node menu */}      <NodeMenuController>         <GraphBoundsController>          <GraphContainer>            <Canvas />            {/* Added NodeMenu component */}            <NodeMenu />          </GraphContainer>        </GraphBoundsController>      </NodeMenuController>    </Provider>  </ConfigController>

RightMenuController

To add a right-click menu for nodes, import and use the RightMenuController wrapper component:

  <ConfigController graphConfig={graphConfig}>    <Provider store={store}>      {/* Added RightMenuController wrapper */}      <RightMenuController>        <NodeMenuController>          <GraphBoundsController>            <GraphContainer>              <Canvas />              <NodeMenu />            </GraphContainer>          </GraphBoundsController>        </NodeMenuController>      </RightMenuController>    </Provider>  </ConfigController>

LoadMoreDialogController

By default, 25 nodes load. To add functionality to load an additional 25 nodes at each button click, use the LoadMoreDialogController wrapper.

  <ConfigController graphConfig={graphConfig}>    <Provider store={store}>      {/* Added controller */}      <LoadMoreDialogController>        <GraphBoundsController>          <GraphContainer>            <Canvas />          </GraphContainer>        </GraphBoundsController>      <LoadMoreDialogController>    </Provider>  </ConfigController>

Example

import React, { Dispatch, SetStateAction, memo, useContext } from "react";import { Provider } from "react-redux";import {  Canvas,  ConfigContext,  ConfigController,  RightMenuController,  GraphBoundsController,  store,  NodeMenuController,  LoadMoreDialogController,} from "@dtplatform/iaf-kgraph-ui";import "@dtplatform/iaf-kgraph-ui/dist/style.css";import NodeMenu from "../components/NodeMenu";import SearchBar from "../components/SearchBar";import FilterBar from "../components/FilterBar";import useConfigSync from "../_hooks_/useConfigSync";
function GraphContainer({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) {  useConfigSync();
  const { config } = useContext(ConfigContext)!;
  return (    <div      id={"knowledge-graph-container"}      style={{        position: "relative",        width: config.width,        height: config.height,        overflow: "hidden",        ...config.style,      }}      className={config.className}    >      {children}    </div>  );}
function Graph(graphConfig) {  const { openModal } = useModal();
  return (    <div      style={{        height: "100vh",        width: "100vw",        overflow: "hidden",      }}    >         <div style={{ position: "relative" }}>        <ConfigController graphConfig={graphConfig}>          <Provider store={store}>            <LoadMoreDialogController>              <RightMenuController>                <NodeMenuController>                  <GraphBoundsController>                    <GraphContainer>                      <ModalDialogs />                      <SearchBar />                      <FilterBar />                      <Canvas />                      <NodeMenu />                    </GraphContainer>                  </GraphBoundsController>                </NodeMenuController>              </RightMenuController>            </LoadMoreDialogController>          </Provider>        </ConfigController>      </div>    </div>  );}
export default memo(Graph); 

Higher-level wrappers

In the parent component that imports and uses your knowledge graph component, wrap the knowledge graph component in the DataStateProvider and ActiveGraphController wrappers.

  return (    <div onContextMenu={preventDefaultContextMenu}>      <DataStateProvider>        <ActiveGraphController>          <Grid container spacing={1}>            <Grid item xs={6}>              <KnowledgeGraph                explore={getConnection}                onClickAddon={handleClickAddon}              />            </Grid>          </Grid>        </ActiveGraphController>      </DataStateProvider>    </div>  );

ActiveGraphController

Controls which graph is the currently active graph

DataStateProvider

Maintains data state
