@inputless/visualization
Graph visualization package for the Inputless Analytics SDK using Sigma.js.
Purpose
Provides interactive graph visualization capabilities for displaying behavioral analytics data from Neo4j, enabling visual exploration of:
- User journey patterns
- Event correlations and relationships
- Behavioral pattern networks
- Graph RAG query results
- Anomaly detection visualizations
- Natural language querying via chat interface (like Cursor AI)
Why Sigma.js?
Sigma.js is the ideal choice for graph visualization in the Inputless SDK because:
- Performance: Handles large graphs (10,000+ nodes) with smooth rendering
- WebGL Rendering: Hardware-accelerated graphics for interactive experiences
- Flexibility: Rich plugin ecosystem and customization options
- TypeScript Support: Full TypeScript definitions included
- React Integration: Works seamlessly with React components
- Layout Algorithms: Built-in support for force-directed and other layout algorithms

Features
Example 1: Basic Local Graph Visualization (No Backend)
Create and visualize graph data locally without a backend:
import { GraphVisualization } from '@inputless/visualization';
import type { Node, Edge } from '@inputless/visualization';
// Create local graph data (no backend required)
const nodes: Node[] = [
{
id: '1',
label: 'User A',
type: 'User',
color: '#3498db',
size: 20,
x: 100,
y: 100,
attributes: {
name: 'John',
age: 30,
},
},
{ id: '2', label: 'Event X', type: 'Event', color: '#e74c3c', size: 15 },
{ id: '3', label: 'Page Y', type: 'Page', color: '#2ecc71', size: 15 },
];
const edges: Edge[] = [
{
id: 'e1',
source: '1',
target: '2',
label: 'PERFORMED',
color: '#3498db',
size: 2,
attributes: {
timestamp: Date.now(),
},
},
{ id: 'e2', source: '2', target: '3', label: 'HAPPENED_ON', color: '#2ecc71' },
];
// Render graph visualization
<GraphVisualization
nodes={nodes}
edges={edges}
height={600}
width="100%"
/>Example 2: Converting Neo4j Data Locally (No Backend)
Convert Neo4j data format to visualization format locally:
import { sigmaAdapter, GraphVisualization } from '@inputless/visualization';
import type { Neo4jGraphData } from '@inputless/visualization';
// Neo4j data format
const neo4jData: Neo4jGraphData = {
nodes: [
{
id: '1',
labels: ['User'],
properties: {
name: 'John',
age: 30,
},
identity: 1,
},
{
id: '2',
labels: ['Event'],
properties: { type: 'click', timestamp: 1234567890 },
},
],
relationships: [
{
type: 'PERFORMED',
start: '1',
end: '2',
properties: {
timestamp: 1234567890,
},
},
],
};
// Convert Neo4j data to Sigma.js format
const graphData = sigmaAdapter(neo4jData);
// Returns: {
// nodes: [{ id: '1', label: 'John', type: 'User', color: '#3498db', ... }, ...],
// edges: [{ id: 'e1', source: '1', target: '2', label: 'PERFORMED', ... }]
// }
// Render visualization
<GraphVisualization
nodes={graphData.nodes}
edges={graphData.edges}
height={600}
width="100%"
/>Example 3: Using Graphology for Layout Algorithms (Local Only)
Convert graph data to Graphology format for layout algorithms:
import { graphologyAdapter, graphologyToGraphData, GraphVisualization } from '@inputless/visualization';
import type { GraphData } from '@inputless/visualization';
import Graph from 'graphology';
// Local graph data
const graphData: GraphData = {
nodes: [
{ id: '1', label: 'User A', type: 'User', x: 0, y: 0 },
{ id: '2', label: 'Event X', type: 'Event', x: 100, y: 100 },
],
edges: [
{ id: 'e1', source: '1', target: '2', label: 'PERFORMED' },
],
};
// Convert to Graphology Graph
const graphologyGraph: Graph = graphologyAdapter(graphData);
// Apply layout algorithm (e.g., force-directed) using Graphology
// Note: Layout algorithms are placeholders
// Full implementation coming soon
// Convert back to GraphData
const updatedGraphData = graphologyToGraphData(graphologyGraph);
// Render visualization
<GraphVisualization
nodes={updatedGraphData.nodes}
edges={updatedGraphData.edges}
height={600}
width="100%"
/>Layout Algorithms
Sigma.js supports various layout algorithms for different visualization needs:
Force-Directed Layout
- Use Case: General network visualization
- Best for: Discovering communities and relationships
- Performance: Good for < 1000 nodes
Circular Layout
- Use Case: Hierarchical or sequential data
- Best for: User journeys, event sequences
- Performance: Excellent for any graph size
Grid Layout
- Use Case: Organized, structured data
- Best for: Categorical relationships
- Performance: Excellent for any graph size
Hierarchical Layout
- Use Case: Parent-child relationships
- Best for: Taxonomy, organizational structures
- Performance: Good for < 500 nodes

error, // Error | null
graphData, // { nodes: Node[], edges: Edge[] } | null
} = useChatQuery({
apiEndpoint: 'https://api.example.com/graph/query',
apiKey: 'your-api-key',
enableGraphVisualization: true,
autoScroll: true,
maxHistory: 50,
placeholder: 'Ask a question...',
headers: {},
});
return (
<div>
<button onClick={() => sendQuery('Show me all users')}>
Query Users
</button>
{isLoading && <div>Loading...</div>}
{error && <div>Error: {error.message}</div>}
{graphData && (
<GraphVisualization

Performance Optimization
Large Graph Handling
For graphs with 1000+ nodes:
- Clustering: Group related nodes
- Level of Detail (LOD): Render detail only for visible nodes
- Virtualization: Only render nodes in viewport
- Progressive Loading: Load graph data in chunks
<GraphVisualization
nodes={nodes}
edges={edges}
performance={{
maxNodes: 5000,
clustering: true,
lod: true,
virtualization: true,
progressiveLoading: true,
}}
/>Accessibility
- Keyboard navigation support
- Screen reader compatibility
- High contrast mode
- ARIA labels and roles
Browser Support
- Chrome/Edge: ✅ Full support
- Firefox: ✅ Full support
- Safari: ✅ Full support
- IE11: ❌ Not supported (use polyfills if needed)
Examples
See /examples directory for:
- Basic graph visualization
