@liquidcars/atlas-geometry-processes

Independent 3D geometry pack for standard process and flowchart symbols in @liquidcars/atlas.

import "@liquidcars/atlas";
import "@liquidcars/atlas-geometry-processes";

The import registers the process.* geometry namespace. The pack is declarative from the host's point of view: it contributes canonical sizes, typed parameters, local palette colors, named anchors and compound parts, but does not depend on Three.js.

Included symbols

| Geometry | Use | | --- | --- | | process.terminator | Start / end | | process.activity | Task, subprocess or call activity | | process.decision | Decision/gateway | | process.data | Data input/output | | process.manual-operation | Manual operation | | process.document | Document or record | | process.predefined-process | Reusable named routine | | process.stored-data | Persistent data store | | process.internal-storage | Internal storage | | process.direct-data | Disk/drum-like direct data | | process.manual-input | Manual data entry | | process.preparation | Preparation/setup | | process.parallel-mode | Parallel execution | | process.loop-limit | Bounded loop | | process.display | User-facing display | | process.connector | In-page sequence/junction | | process.off-page-reference | Continuation on another page | | process.annotation | Note attached to a symbol | | process.control-transfer | Control-flow transfer | | process.condition | Condition/rule gate |

The symbols are intentionally process-oriented rather than generic primitives: they preserve the visual vocabulary of flowcharts while remaining volumetric, selectable and compatible with Atlas relations.

Studio presents the everyday vocabulary as Processes · Essentials and the specialized flowchart vocabulary as Processes · Advanced. This grouping changes only discovery and display names; all existing geometry ids remain stable and backwards compatible.

Example

- id: receive-order
  name: Receive order
  geometry: process.terminator
  geometryOptions:
    kind: start

- id: validate-order
  name: Validate order
  geometry: process.activity
  geometryOptions:
    variant: task

- id: order-valid
  name: Order valid?
  geometry: process.decision
  geometryOptions:
    outcome: neutral

- id: rejected
  name: Rejected
  geometry: process.document
  geometryOptions:
    copies: 2

relations:
  - from: receive-order
    to: validate-order
    label: begins
  - from: validate-order
    to: order-valid
    label: checks
  - from: order-valid
    to: rejected
    label: "no"

A local palette can override the default colors without changing the model semantics:

{
  "geometry": "process.display",
  "geometryOptions": {
    "screen": "active"
  },
  "geometryPalette": {
    "body": "#263746",
    "accent": "#f4d35e"
  }
}

Images are optional on the few symbols where a real visual asset is useful. The pack deliberately avoids text-based icon fields because entity labels are the semantic caption and front-face text competes with them. Images accept browser-loadable URLs or data URIs; external hosts must permit cross-origin loading when required by the browser.

Design notes

The symbols follow common flowchart semantics while remaining volumetric. The terminator is a single rounded pill, documents use a light paper face with a wave at the lower edge, connectors face the camera as compact discs, and notes use the familiar folded-corner Post-it silhouette.

The pack uses namespace process and registers itself on import:

import processGeometryPack from "@liquidcars/atlas-geometry-processes";

console.log(processGeometryPack.geometries.map(geometry => geometry.id));
