Diagram Library for JavaScript and TypeScript

A diagram library that enables you to build any type of graph, flowchart, tree, org chart, diagram, process chart, database schema and much more. Includes a huge variety of prdefined node and link shapes, automatic layout algorithms, many import and export options.

Installing

For the latest stable version:

npm install @mindfusion/diagramming

New in version 4.9

CSS Styling

The styling system now supports defining item appearance through external CSS files. You can style different item types using custom element selectors such as mfd-shapenode, mfd-diagramlink, or mfd-tablenode. The system maps CSS Custom Properties to the internal Style properties. For example, use --brush for backgrounds, --stroke for outlines, and --font-size for text. The new cssClass property on DiagramItem allows for more granular styling using standard class selectors in your CSS. To ensure high performance, computed styles are cached globally, and the system automatically resolves style inheritance across class hierarchies (e.g., a ShapeNode will resolve styles from mfd-shapenode, mfd-diagramnode, and mfd-diagramitem selectors in that order).

/* Style all shape nodes */
mfd-shapenode {
    --brush: #f9f9f9;
    --stroke: #333;
    --stroke-thickness: 1px;
    --font-name: 'Verdana';
}

/* Specific styling via the new cssClass property */
mfd-shapenode.urgent {
    --brush: #ffcccc;
    --stroke: #ff0000;
    --stroke-thickness: 2px;
}

/* Style table captions using custom properties */
mfd-tablenode {
    --caption-brush: #e0e0e0;
    --text-color: #000066;
} 

Compact Multi-graph Layout

A new MinimalArea option has been added to the MultipleGraphsPlacement enumeration, which uses a bin-packing algorithm to arrange connected components in a compact, square-like area. This ensures a more efficient use of space compared to horizontal or vertical arrangements when laying out multiple independent graphs.

Polygonal Text Layout

The ShapeNode class now supports a polygonalTextLayout property, enabling text to wrap and align precisely within the geometric boundaries of non-rectangular shapes like triangles, diamonds, and custom polygons. This feature supports both plain and styled text across all alignment modes.

React support

The DiagramView React component allows integrating the MindFusion.Diagramming API into React applications. It renders a Diagram instance assigned to "diagram" prop as its model. Most diagram properties can be set from JSX, and all diagram events can be handled through JSX syntax as well. For more information, see the Integration with React topic.

Vue.js support

The diagram-view Vue.js component allows integrating the MindFusion.Diagramming API into Vue.js applications. It renders a Diagram instance assigned to "diagram" prop as its model. Most diagram properties can be set from the vue template, and all diagram events can be handled through the v-on directive as well. For more information, see the Integration with Vue.js topic.

Angular support

The diagram-view Angular component allows integrating the MindFusion.Diagramming API into Angular applications. It renders a Diagram instance assigned to "diagram" property as its model. Most diagram properties can be set from the html template, and all diagram events can be handled through event binding syntax as well. For more information, see the Integration with Angular topic.
