DUMN: Interactive Graph Generator

Demo: https://dumn.herokuapp.com

Getting Started

API Usage

To use the API, add the following to your HTML header:

<script defer type="text/javascript" src="https://dumn.herokuapp.com/dumn.js"></script>

To use the API, you need to create a canvas element with a unique ID. You will be generating all the graphs on your own canvas element.

An example:

<canvas id="myCanvas"></canvas>

In your script file, you can pass the following options to the API and generate a graph:

• networkSize: size of the graph you want to generate. Here the size refers to the number of nodes.
• nodeSize: size of each node within your graph.
• canvasId: id of the canvas element. In the example above, the id is myCanvas.
• color: the graph will be generated in this color. The color can be either names (e.g. black, red) or HEX code (e.g. #F0F0F0). If you enter an invalid color or not entering color at all, the graph will be generated in black by default.

After the options are all set, generate the graph by calling nnGenerator(options). An example usage:

// An example option
options = {"networkSize": 10, "nodeSize": 50, "canvasId": "myCanvas", "color": "black"}
nnGenerator(options)

To add edges to the graph,

• edges: the edges within the graph. For example, to include edges (1, 3) and (2, 3), the edges will be

edges = [
    { v1: 1, v2: 3 },
    { v1: 2, v2: 3 }
]

where v1 and v2 are the labels of nodes (see demo for example of node labelling).

In your own canvas，you will be able to drag the nodes around using mouse (see demo for an interactive use). Additionally, the generated graph can be directly saved as an image file.
