API

cy.transform(options) To initialize the extension with given options.

let api = cy.transform('get') To get the extension instance after initialization.

api.flipVertical(nodes) Flip the given nodes vertically across the horizontal line passing through the center of their bounding box.

api.flipHorizontal(nodes) Flip the given nodes horizontally across the vertical line passing through the center of their bounding box.

api.rotate(nodes, angle) Rotate the given nodes around the center of their bounding box by the given angle (a positive angle rotates clockwise).

api.scale(nodes, scalingFactor) Scale the given nodes about the center of their bounding box by the given scaling factor.

Default Options

    var options = {
      animate: true, // whether to animate during transformations
      animationDuration: 1000, // when animate is true, the duration in milliseconds of the animation
    };

Dependencies

• Cytoscape.js ^3.3.0

Usage instructions

Download the library:

• via npm: npm install cytoscape-transform,
• via bower: bower install cytoscape-transform, or
• via direct download in the repository (probably from a tag).

Import the library as appropriate for your project:

ES import:

import cytoscape from 'cytoscape';
import transform from 'cytoscape-transform';

cytoscape.use( transform );

CommonJS require:

let cytoscape = require('cytoscape');
let transform = require('cytoscape-transform');

cytoscape.use( transform ); // register extension

AMD:

require(['cytoscape', 'cytoscape-fcose'], function( cytoscape, fcose ){
  fcose( cytoscape ); // register extension
});

Plain HTML/JS has the extension registered for you automatically, because no require() is needed.
