[![NPM Downloads][npm-downloads-img]][npm-downloads-url]

React bindings for the **force-graph** [suite](https://vasturiano.github.io/react-force-graph/example/forcegraph-dependencies) of components: [force-graph](https://github.com/vasturiano/force-graph) (2D HTML Canvas), [3d-force-graph](https://github.com/vasturiano/3d-force-graph) (ThreeJS/WebGL), [3d-force-graph-vr](https://github.com/vasturiano/3d-force-graph-vr) (A-Frame) and [3d-force-graph-ar](https://github.com/vasturiano/3d-force-graph-ar) (AR.js).



  



This module exports 4 React components with identical interfaces: `ForceGraph2D`, `ForceGraph3D`, `ForceGraphVR` and `ForceGraphAR`. Each can be used to represent a graph data structure in a 2 or 3-dimensional space using a force-directed iterative layout.

For dependency convenience, all of the components are also available as stand-alone packages: `react-force-graph-2d`, `react-force-graph-3d`, `react-force-graph-vr` and `react-force-graph-ar`.

Uses canvas/WebGL for rendering and [d3-force-3d](https://github.com/vasturiano/d3-force-3d) for the underlying physics engine. 

Supports zooming/panning, node dragging and node/link hover/click interactions.

See also the [react-three-fiber component](https://github.com/vasturiano/r3f-forcegraph).

### Render control

| Prop | Type | Default | Description | 2D | 3D | VR | AR |

| --- | :--: | :--: | --- | :--: | :--: | :--: | :--: |

| rendererConfig | object | `{ antialias: true, alpha: true }` | Configuration parameters to pass to the [ThreeJS WebGLRenderer](https://threejs.org/docs/#api/en/renderers/WebGLRenderer) constructor. This prop only has an effect on component mount. | | :heavy_check_mark: | | |

| extraRenderers | array | `[]` | If you wish to include custom objects that require a dedicated renderer besides `WebGL`, such as [CSS3DRenderer](https://threejs.org/docs/#examples/en/renderers/CSS3DRenderer), include in this array those extra renderer instances. | | :heavy_check_mark: | | |

| autoPauseRedraw | bool | `true` | Enable performance optimization to automatically pause redrawing the 2D canvas at every frame whenever the simulation engine is halted. If you have custom dynamic objects that rely on a constant redraw of the canvas, it's recommended to switch this option off. | :heavy_check_mark: | | | |

| minZoom | number | 0.01 | Lowest zoom out level permitted on the 2D canvas. | :heavy_check_mark: | | | |

| maxZoom | number | 1000 | Highest zoom in level permitted on the 2D canvas. | :heavy_check_mark: | | | |

| onRenderFramePre | func | *-* | Callback function to invoke at every frame, immediately before any node/link is rendered to the canvas. This can be used to draw additional external items on the canvas. The canvas context and the current global scale are included as parameters: `.onRenderFramePre(, )`. | :heavy_check_mark: | | | |

| onRenderFramePost | func | *-* | Callback function to invoke at every frame, immediately after the last node/link is rendered to the canvas. This can be used to draw additional external items on the canvas. The canvas context and the current global scale are included as parameters: `.onRenderFramePost(, )`. | :heavy_check_mark: | | | |

| Method | Arguments | Description | 2D | 3D | VR | AR |

| --- | :--: | --- | :--: | :--: | :--: | :--: |

| pauseAnimation | *-* | Pauses the rendering cycle of the component, effectively freezing the current view and cancelling all user interaction. This method can be used to save performance in circumstances when a static image is sufficient. | :heavy_check_mark: | :heavy_check_mark: | | |

| resumeAnimation | *-* | Resumes the rendering cycle of the component, and re-enables the user interaction. This method can be used together with `pauseAnimation` for performance optimization purposes. | :heavy_check_mark: | :heavy_check_mark: | | |

| centerAt | ([x], [y], [ms]) | Set the coordinates of the center of the viewport. This method can be used to perform panning on the 2D canvas programmatically. Each of the `x, y` coordinates is optional, allowing for motion in just one dimension. An optional 3rd argument defines the duration of the transition (in ms) to animate the canvas motion. | :heavy_check_mark: | | |

| zoom | ([number], [ms]) | Set the 2D canvas zoom amount. The zoom is defined in terms of the scale transform of each px. A value of `1` indicates unity, larger values zoom in and smaller values zoom out. An optional 2nd argument defines the duration of the transition (in ms) to animate the canvas motion. By default the zoom is set to a value inversely proportional to the amount of nodes in the system. | :heavy_check_mark: | | |

| zoomToFit | ([ms], [px], [nodeFilterFn]) | Automatically zooms/pans the canvas so that all of the nodes fit inside it. If no nodes are found no action is taken. It accepts two optional arguments: the first defines the duration of the transition (in ms) to animate the canvas motion (default: 0ms). The second argument is the amount of padding (in px) between the edge of the canvas and the outermost node (default: 10px). The third argument specifies a custom node filter: `node => `, which should return a truthy value if the node is to be included. This can be useful for focusing on a portion of the graph. | :heavy_check_mark: | :heavy_check_mark: | | |

| cameraPosition | ([{x,y,z}],[lookAt], [ms]) | Re-position the camera, in terms of `x`, `y`, `z` coordinates. Each of the coordinates is optional, allowing for motion in just some dimensions. The optional second argument can be used to define the direction that the camera should aim at, in terms of an `{x,y,z}` point in the 3D space. The 3rd optional argument defines the duration of the transition (in ms) to animate the camera motion. A value of 0 (default) moves the camera immediately to the final position. By default the camera will face the center of the graph at a `z` distance proportional to the amount of nodes in the system. | | :heavy_check_mark: | | |

| lights | ([array]) | Getter/setter for the list of lights to use in the scene. Each item should be an instance of [Light](https://threejs.org/docs/#api/en/lights/Light). | | :heavy_check_mark: | | |

Use this to add post-processing [rendering effects](https://github.com/mrdoob/three.js/tree/dev/examples/jsm/postprocessing) to the scene. By default the composer has a single pass ([RenderPass](https://github.com/mrdoob/three.js/blob/dev/examples/jsm/postprocessing/RenderPass.js)) that directly renders the scene without any effects. | | :heavy_check_mark: | | | 

| controls | *-* | Access the internal ThreeJS controls object. | | :heavy_check_mark: | | |

| refresh | *-* | Redraws all the nodes/links. | | :heavy_check_mark: | :heavy_check_mark: | :heavy_check_mark: |

| d3Force | (string, [func]) | Access to the internal forces that control the d3 simulation engine. Follows the same interface as `d3-force-3d`'s [simulation.force](https://github.com/vasturiano/d3-force-3d#simulation_force).

Each of these forces can be reconfigured, or new forces can be added to the system. Only applicable if using the d3 simulation engine. | :heavy_check_mark: | :heavy_check_mark: | :heavy_check_mark: | :heavy_check_mark: |

| d3ReheatSimulation | () | Reheats the force simulation engine, by setting the `alpha` value to `1`. Only applicable if using the d3 simulation engine. | :heavy_check_mark: | :heavy_check_mark: | :heavy_check_mark: | :heavy_check_mark: |
