Props

Props	Description	Required	Type	Default
chart	The Chart data (type of FlowChart)	true	FlowChart	-

API

Every FlowChart starts by creating a new FlowChart instance with the FlowChart class:

FlowChart

data() {
  return {
    chart: new FlowChart()
  }
}

The creation currently allows the following options:

option	Description	Type	Default
direction	The direction in which the chart is built. Can be LR, TB, BT, RL	string	LR

Now you can work with the new chart variable

<FlowChart>.addElement(id, [options])

Used to add nodes to the chart. Every node needs an id, so this field is required. returns class FlowElement

Available options are:

option	Description	Type	Default
label	A label which shows up on the node	string	id

FlowElement

A FlowElement is returned by <FlowChart>.addElement. It represents one node

<FlowElement>.leadsTo(<FlowElement>, [options])

Used to connect two elements with an edge.

Available options are:

option	Description	Type	Default
label	A label which shows up on the edge	string	''

<FlowElement>.on(event, callback)

Used to add events to FlowElements. Can be any event.

Contributing

As my time is limited, I would be happy if someone contributes to this project. Simply clone the repo and start developing. At the end run yarn build to build the package to test it.

Then link the package using yarn link As vue is a peer dependency, I also had to link vue for development and testing:

cd node_modules/vue
yarn link
cd ../../

Now go into the example directory and use the links there

cd example
yarn link "vue-flowy"
yarn link "vue"

Now run the app to test it out

yarn serve
