## Foreword
First of all, thanks a lot for [wesnolte](https://github.com/wesnolte)'s great work:blush: -- [jOrgChart](https://github.com/wesnolte/jOrgChart). The thought that using nested tables to build out the tree-like orgonization chart is amazing. This idea is more simple and direct than its counterparts based on svg
Unfortunately, it's long time not to see the update of jOrgChart. on the other hand, I got some interesting ideas to add, so I choose to create a new repo.
- Since version 3.0, we use nested ul to construct tree-like chart instead of nested table.
- Since version 4.0, users build up the ajax datasoure by themselves.

## Features
- Supports both local data and remote data (JSON).
- Smooth expand/collapse effects based on CSS3 transitions.
- Align the chart in 4 orientations.
- Allows user to change orgchart structure by drag/drop nodes.
- Allows user to edit orgchart dynamically and save the final hierarchy as a JSON object.
- Supports exporting chart as a picture or pdf document.
- Supports pan and zoom.
- Allows user to customize the internal structure for every node.
- Users can adopt multiple solutions to build up a huge organization chart(please refer hybrid layout sections).
- touch-enabled plugin for mobile device.

## CDN
Users could find the related CDN support for OrgChart's CSS and JavaScript.

[![cdnjs](https://img.shields.io/cdnjs/v/orgchart)](https://cdnjs.com/libraries/orgchart) https://cdnjs.com/libraries/orgchart

## Installation
Of course, you can directly use the standalone build by including dist/js/jquery.orgchart.js and dist/css/jquery.orgchart.css in your webapps.
### Install with Bower
```
# From version 1.0.2 on, users can install orgchart and add it to bower.json dependencies
$ bower install orgchart
```

### Install with npm
```
# From version 1.0.4 on, users can install orgchart with npm
$ npm install orgchart
```
require('orgchart') will load orgchart plugin onto the jQuery object. The orgchart module itself does not export anything.

## [Demos on github pages](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/)
## [Demos based on nested ul](https://codepen.io/collection/xKmPeK)
## [Demos based on nested table](https://codepen.io/collection/AWxGVb/) (obsolete)

### online demos
- [using ul datasource](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/ul-datasource.html)(this feature comes from [Tobyee's good idea :blush:](https://github.com/dabeng/OrgChart/issues/1))

- [using local datasource](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/local-datasource.html)

- [I wanna pan&zoom the orgchart](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/pan-zoom.html)

- I wanna align orgchart with different orientation**(this feature comes from [the good idea of fvlima and badulesia :blush:](https://github.com/dabeng/OrgChart/issues/5))

Top to Bottom -- default direction, as you can see all other examples on this page.

[Bottom to Top](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/bottom2top.html)

[Left to Right](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/left2right.html)

[Right to Left](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/right2left.html)

- [I wanna show/hide left/right sibling nodes respectively by clicking left/right arrow](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/toggle-sibs-resp.html)

- [I wanna load datasource through ajax](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/ajax-datasource.html)

- [I wanna load data on-demand](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/ondemand-loading-data.html)

![ondemand-loading-data](http://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/img/ondemand-loading-data.gif)

**Note:** users use should set the relationship property of datasource by themselves. All of these staff are used to generate the correct expanding/collapsing arrows for nodes.

- [I wanna customize the structure of node](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/option-createNode.html)

- [I wanna export the organization chart as a picture](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/export-chart.html)

Here, we need the help from [html2canvas](https://github.com/niklasvh/html2canvas).

**Note:**

(1) if you wanna export something in IE or Edge, please introduce [es6-promise.auto.js](https://github.com/stefanpenner/es6-promise) firstly.

(2) if your OS is windows, please check your display scaling settings. For the perfact exported picture, you'd better adjust "Change the size of text, apps, and other items" to 100%.(thanks for [sayamkrai](https://github.com/sayamkrai)'s [exploration](https://github.com/dabeng/OrgChart/issues/152))

(3) Besides, if you wanna export a pdf format or your orgchart includes picture, you have to introduce [jspdf](https://github.com/MrRio/jsPDF) and set "exportFileextension" option to "pdf".

- [I wanna export the orgchart with nodes containing pictures](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/export-chart-with-pictures.html)

You need to set crossorigin to anonymous for your img tags.

![export-chart-with-pictures](http://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/img/export-chart-with-pictures.png)

- [I wanna itegrate organization chart with geographic information](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/integrate-map.html)

Here, we fall back on [OpenLayers](https://github.com/openlayers/ol3). It's the most aewsome open-source js library for Web GIS you sholdn't miss.

- [I wanna edit orgchart](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/edit-chart.html)

With the help of exposed core methods(addParent(), addSiblings(), addChildren(), removeNodes()) of orgchart plugin, we can finish this task easily.

- [I wanna drag & drop the nodes of orgchart](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/drag-drop.html)

Users are allowed to drag & drop the nodes of orgchart when option "draggable" is assigned to true(**Note**: this feature doesn't work on IE due to its poor support for HTML5 drag & drop API).

Furthermore, users can make use of option dropCriteria to inject their custom limitations on drag & drop. As shown below, we don't want an manager employee to be under a engineer under no circumstance.

- [I want a method that can describe the hierarchy of orgchart](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/get-hierarchy.html)

That's where getHierarchy() comes in.

- [I want a color-coded chart](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/color-coded.html)

It's a so easy task, we just need to append id or className property to node data.

- [I want a hybrid(horizontal + vertical) chart](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/vertical-level.html)

This feature is inspired by the issues([Aligning Children Vertical](https://github.com/dabeng/OrgChart/issues/46), [Hybrid(horizontal + vertical) OrgChart](https://github.com/dabeng/OrgChart/issues/61)). Thank [mfahadi](https://github.com/mfahadi) and [Destructrix](https://github.com/Destructrix) for their constructive suggestions:blush: Special thanks to [tedliang](https://github.com/tedliang) for his wonderful hybrid mode solution.

From now on, users never have to worry about how to align a huge of nodes in one screen of browser. The option "verticalLevel" allows users to align child nodes vertically from the given level.

**Note**: currently, this option is incompatible with many other options or methods, like direction, drag&drop, addChildren(), removeNodes(), getHierarchy() and so on. These conflicts will be solved one by one in the later versions.

- [I want to collapse some nodes by default](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/default-collapsed.html)

No problem. You just need to adjust a little detail of datasource with the help of option "collapse" and className "slide-up".

- [I want to refresh orgchart base on new options or datasource](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/reload-data.html)

It's not a big deal. You just turn to the method init().

- [I want to use complex template to customize the internal structure of every node](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/custom-template.html)

No problem. With the help of ES6 Template literals, we can customize the any complex node structure rather than the common title and content sections.

- [I want to position node in specific level. How can i do that ?](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/level-offset.html)

![level-offset](http://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/img/level-offset.png)

You need the solution based on new datasource structure with **levelOffset data prop** + callback createNode() + CSS custom properties(variables)

- [I want a orgchart with nodes of different widths](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/nodes-of-different-widths.html)

![nodes-of-different-widths](http://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/img/nodes-of-different-widths.png)

- [I want to drag&drop in the hybrid chart](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/drag-drop-hybrid-chart.html)

- [ I only want specific children of a certain branch of the chart to be displayed as vertical. Is it possible to set VerticalLevel by data?](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/data-prop-hybrid.html)

![data-prop-hybrid](http://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/img/data-prop-hybrid.png)

**hybrid data property** is designed for your use case. Once node data includes a "hybrid" prop with truthy value, its descendant nodes will be arranged vertically.

- [I want to replace built-in icons with Font Awesome icons](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/custom-icons.html)

- [ I want to alternate layout if children is too many](https://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/data-prop-compact.html)

![data-prop-compact](http://dabeng.github.io/OrgChart/img/data-prop-compact.png)

**compact data property** is designed for your use case. Once node data includes a "compact" prop with truthy value, itself and its descendant nodes will be arranged with compact mode.

### how to start up demos locally

- you have to install node.js v6+ because our unit tests are based on jsdom v11
- you have to install modern browsers because many behaviors of orgchart plugin are based on HTML5 and CSS3
- run ```npm install``` to install necessary dependencies
- run ```npm test``` to run all tests including unit tests, integration tests and e2e tests
- run ```npm run build``` to generate production js&css files of plugin
- run ```npm start``` to start up local web server to host all the demos

## Usage

### Instantiation Statement
```js
var oc = $('#chartContainerId').orgchart(options);
```

### Structure of Datasource
```js
{
'id': 'rootNode', // It's a optional property which will be used as id attribute of node
// and data-parent attribute, which contains the id of the parent node
'collapsed': true, // By default, the children nodes of current node is hidden.
'className': 'top-level', // It's a optional property
// which will be used as className attribute of node.

Event Type
Additional Parameters
Description

init.orgchart
chart
Initialisation complete event - fired when Organization Chart has been fully initialised and data loaded.


show-[relation].orgchart

This event is fired when related nodes of a node become visible.


hide-[relation].orgchart

This event if fired when related nodes of a node are collapsed.

### Tips
#### How can I deactivate expand/collapse feature of orgchart?
This use case is inspired by the [issue](https://github.com/dabeng/OrgChart/issues/25). Thanks [der-robert](https://github.com/der-robert) and [ActiveScottShaw](https://github.com/ActiveScottShaw) for their constructive discussions:blush:

Users can enable/disable exapand/collapse feature with className "noncollapsable" as shown below.
```js
$('.orgchart').addClass('noncollapsable'); // deactivate

$('.orgchart').removeClass('noncollapsable'); // activate
```

#### Why is the root node gone?
When I have a huge orgchart with enabled "pan" option, if I hide all the children of one of the topmost parents then the chart disappear from screen. It seems that we need to add a reset button to keep the chart visible.
For details, please refer to the [issue](https://github.com/dabeng/OrgChart/issues/85) opened by [manuel-84](https://github.com/manuel-84) :blush:

Users can embed any clear up logics into the click handler of the reset buttton as shown below.
```js
$('.orgchart').css('transform',''); // remove the tansform settings
```
