How to make use of it:

Install and download:

# NPM
$ npm i v-network-graph --save

1. Import and register the component.

import VNetworkGraph from "v-network-graph"
import "v-network-graph/style.css"
Vue.use(VNetworkGraph);

2. Add the v-grid graph component to the template.

<template>
  <v-network-graph
    :nodes="nodes"
    :edges="edges"
  />
</template>

3. Set up the node and edge data as follows:

import { defineComponent } from "vue"
export default defineComponent({
  setup() {
    const nodes = {
      node1: { name: "Node 1" },
      node2: { name: "Node 2" },
      node3: { name: "Node 3" },
      // ...
    }
    const edges = {
      edge1: { source: "node1", target: "node2" },
      edge2: { source: "node2", target: "node3" },
      // ...
    }
    return { nodes, edges }
  },
})

4. The default component props.

  type: Object as PropType<Nodes>,
  default: () => ({}),
},

  type: Object as PropType<Edges>,
  default: () => ({}),
},

  type: Object as PropType<UserConfigs>,
  default: () => ({}),
},
paths: {
  type: Array as PropType<Paths>,
  default: () => [],
},
layers: {
  type: Object as PropType<Layers>,
  default: () => ({}),
},
eventHandlers: {
  // Since a large number of events will be issued, to avoid
  // contaminating the event log of the development tools,
  // events are designed to be notified to a handler function
  // specified by the user.
  type: Object as PropType<EventHandlers>,
  default: () => ({}),
},
