๐ŸŽฌ Usage

Check the examples directory.

import { Designer } from 'sequential-workflow-designer';

const placeholder = document.getElementById('placeholder');

const definition = { properties: { myProperty: 'my-value', // root properties... }, sequence: [ // steps... ], };

const configuration = { theme: 'light', // optional, default: 'light' isReadonly: false, // optional, default: false undoStackSize: 10, // optional, default: 0 - disabled, 1+ - enabled

steps: { // all properties in this section are optional

iconUrlProvider: (componentType, type) => { return icon-${componentType}-${type}.svg; },

isDraggable: (step, parentSequence) => { return step.name !== 'y'; }, isDeletable: (step, parentSequence) => { return step.properties['isDeletable']; }, isDuplicable: (step, parentSequence) => { return true; }, canInsertStep: (step, targetSequence, targetIndex) => { return targetSequence.length < 5; }, canMoveStep: (sourceSequence, step, targetSequence, targetIndex) => { return !step.properties['isLocked']; }, canDeleteStep: (step, parentSequence) => { return step.name !== 'x'; }, },

validator: { // all validators are optional

step: (step, parentSequence, definition) => { return /^[a-z]+$/.test(step.name); }, root: definition => { return definition.properties['memory'] > 256; }, },

toolbox: { isCollapsed: false, groups: [ { name: 'Files', steps: [ // steps for the toolbox group ], }, { name: 'Notification', steps: [ // steps for the toolbox group ], }, ], },

editors: { isCollapsed: false, rootEditorProvider: (definition, rootContext, isReadonly) => { const editor = document.createElement('div'); // ... return editor; }, stepEditorProvider: (step, stepContext, definition, isReadonly) => { const editor = document.createElement('div'); // ... return editor; }, },

controlBar: true, contextMenu: true, };

const designer = Designer.create(placeholder, definition, configuration); designer.onDefinitionChanged.subscribe(event => { // ... });

You can hide default UI components by setting the corresponding configuration property to false.

const configuration = {
  toolbox: false,
  editors: false,
  controlBar: false,
  contextMenu: false,
  // ...
};
