!OrgChart

Perhaps you'd prefer the jQuery version

Perhaps you'd prefer the Web Components version

Foreword

- First of all, thanks a lot for wesnolte's great work:blush: -- 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.
- Font Awesome provides us with administration icon, second level menu icon and loading spinner.

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.
- Supports pan and zoom
- Users can adopt multiple solutions to build up a huge organization chart(please refer to multiple-layers or hybrid layout sections)
- touch-enabled plugin for mobile divice

Getting started

gulp serve
Now, you can try out all the demos on http://localhost:3000.

Note: your nodejs version should be 4+.

Demo

- using ul datasource(this feature comes from Tobyee's good idea:blush:)

`
!local datasource

- I wanna pan&zoom the orgchart

!pan & zoom

- I wanna align orgchart with different orientation(this feature comes from the good idea of fvlima and badulesia :blush:)

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

Bottom to Top
`js
// sample of core source code
let orgchart = new OrgChart({
'chartContainer': '#chart-container',
'data' : datascource,
'nodeContent': 'title',
'direction': 'b2t'
});
`
!Bottom to Top

Left to Right
`js
// sample of core source code
let orgchart = new OrgChart({
'chartContainer': '#chart-container',
'data' : datascource,
'nodeContent': 'title',
'direction': 'l2r'
});
`
!Left to Right

Right to Left
`js
// sample of core source code
let orgchart = new OrgChart({
'chartContainer': '#chart-container',
'data' : datascource,
'nodeContent': 'title',
'direction': 'r2l'
});
`
!Right to Left

- I wanna show/hide left/right sibling nodes respectively by clicking left/right arrow
`js
// sample of core source code
let orgchart = new OrgChart({
'chartContainer': '#chart-container',
'data' : datascource,
'nodeContent': 'title',
'toggleSiblingsResp': true
});
`
!toggle siblings respectively

- I wanna load datasource through ajax
`js
// sample of core source code
let orgchart = new OrgChart({
'chartContainer': '#chart-container',
'data' : '/orgchart/initdata',
'depth': 2,
'nodeContent': 'title'
});
`
!ajax datasource

- I wanna load data on-demand

Note: when users use ajaxURL option to build orghchart, they must use json datasource(both local and remote are OK) and set the relationship property of datasource by themselves. All of these staff are used to generate the correct expanding/collapsing arrows for nodes.
`js
// sample of core source code
let datascource = {
'id': '1',
'name': 'Su Miao',
'title': 'department manager',
'relationship': '111',
'children': [
{ 'id': '2','name': 'Tie Hua', 'title': 'senior engineer', 'relationship': '110' },
{ 'id': '3','name': 'Hei Hei', 'title': 'senior engineer', 'relationship': '111' }
]
},
ajaxURLs = {
'children': '/orgchart/children/',
'parent': '/orgchart/parent/',
'siblings': function(nodeData) {
return '/orgchart/siblings/' + nodeData.id;
},
'families': function(nodeData) {
return '/orgchart/families/' + nodeData.id;
}
},
orgchart = new OrgChart({
'chartContainer': '#chart-container',
'data' : datascource,
'ajaxURL': ajaxURLs,
'nodeContent': 'title',
'nodeId': 'id'
});
`
!on-demand loading data

- I wanna customize the structure of node
`js
// sample of core source code
let orgchart = new OrgChart({
'chartContainer': '#chart-container',
'data' : datascource,
'depth': 2,
'nodeContent': 'title',
'nodeID': 'id',
'createNode': function(node, data) {
let secondMenuIcon = document.createElement('i'),
secondMenu = document.createElement('div');

secondMenuIcon.setAttribute('class', 'fa fa-info-circle second-menu-icon');
secondMenuIcon.addEventListener('click', (event) => {
event.target.nextElementSibling.classList.toggle('hidden');
});
secondMenu.setAttribute('class', 'second-menu hidden');
secondMenu.innerHTML = ;
node.appendChild(secondMenuIcon)
node.appendChild(secondMenu);
}
});
`
!option--createNode

- I wanna export the organization chart as a picture

Here, we need the help from html2canvas.
`js
// sample of core source code
let orgchart = new OrgChart({
'chartContainer': '#chart-container',
'data' : datascource,
'depth': 2,
'nodeContent': 'title',
'exportButton': true,
'exportFilename': 'MyOrgChart'
});
`
!export orgchart

- I wanna itegrate organization chart with geographic information

Here, we fall back on OpenLayers. It's the most aewsome open-source js library for Web GIS you sholdn't miss.
`js
// sample of core source code
let map = new ol.Map({
layers: [
new ol.layer.Tile({

- I wanna edit orgchart

With the help of exposed core methods(addParent(), addSiblings(), addChildren(), removeNodes()) of orgchart plugin, we can finish this task easily.
`js
import OrgChart from '../js/orgchart.min.js';

function addNodes(orgchart) {
let chartContainer = document.getElementById('chart-container'),
nodeVals = [];

Array.from(document.getElementById('new-nodelist').querySelectorAll('.new-node'))
.forEach(item => {
let validVal = item.value.trim();

if (validVal) {
nodeVals.push(validVal);
}
});
let selectedNode = document.getElementById(document.getElementById('selected-node').dataset.node);

if (!nodeVals.length) {
alert('Please input value for new node');
return;
}
let nodeType = document.querySelector('input[name="node-type"]:checked');

if (!nodeType) {
alert('Please select a node type');
return;
}
if (nodeType.value !== 'parent' && !document.querySelector('.orgchart')) {
alert('Please creat the root node firstly when you want to build up the orgchart from the scratch');
return;
}
if (nodeType.value !== 'parent' && !selectedNode) {
alert('Please select one node in orgchart');
return;
}

if (nodeType.value === 'parent') {
if (!chartContainer.children.length) {// if the original chart has been deleted
orgchart = new OrgChart({
'chartContainer': '#chart-container',
'data' : { 'name': nodeVals[0] },
'exportButton': true,
'exportFilename': 'SportsChart',
'parentNodeSymbol': 'fa-th-large',
'createNode': function(node, data) {
node.id = getId();
}
});
orgchart.chart.classList.add('view-state');
} else {
orgchart.addParent(chartContainer.querySelector('.node'), { 'name': nodeVals[0], 'Id': getId() });
}
} else if (nodeType.value === 'siblings') {
orgchart.addSiblings(selectedNode, {
'siblings': nodeVals.map(item => {
return { 'name': item, 'relationship': '110', 'Id': getId() };
})
});
} else {
let hasChild = selectedNode.parentNode.colSpan > 1;

if (!hasChild) {
let rel = nodeVals.length > 1 ? '110' : '100';

orgchart.addChildren(selectedNode, {
'children': nodeVals.map(item => {
return { 'name': item, 'relationship': rel, 'Id': getId() };
})
});
} else {
orgchart.addSiblings(closest(selectedNode, el => el.nodeName === 'TABLE').querySelector('.nodes').querySelector('.node'),
{ 'siblings': nodeVals.map(function(item) { return { 'name': item, 'relationship': '110', 'Id': getId() }; })
});

node.id = getId();
}
});

document.getElementById('btn-add-nodes').addEventListener('click', () => addNodes(orgchart));

});
`
!edit orgchart

- I wanna drag & drop the nodes of orgchart

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).

!drag & drop

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.
`js
// sample of core source code
let orgchart = new OrgChart({
'chartContainer': '#chart-container',
'data' : datascource,
'nodeContent': 'title',
'draggable': true,
'dropCriteria': function(draggedNode, dragZone, dropZone) {
if(draggedNode.querySelector(':scope > .content').textContent.includes('manager') &&
dropZone.querySelector(':scope > .content').textContent.includes('engineer')) {
return false;
}
return true;
}
});
`

- I want a method that can decribe the hierarchy of orgchart

That's where getHierarchy() comes in.
`html


• Lao Lao
  
  
  
  • Bo Miao
  
  
  • Su Miao
    
    
    
    • Tie Hua
    
    
    • Hei Hei
      
      
      
      • Pang Pang
      
      
      • Xiang Xiang
      
      
      
      
    
    
    
    
  
  
  
  


`
`js
let orgchart = new OrgChart({
'chartContainer': '#chart-container',
'data' : '#ul-data'
});

document.querySelector('#btn-export-hier').addEventListener('click', () => {
if (!document.querySelector('pre')) {
let pre = document.createElement('pre'),
hierarchy = orgchart.getHierarchy();

pre.innerHTML = JSON.stringify(hierarchy, null, 2);
document.querySelector('body').insertBefore(pre, document.querySelector('.home-link'));
}
});
`
!get hierarchy

- I want a color-coded chart

It's a so easy task, we just need to append id or className property to node data.
`js
let datasource = {
'name': 'Lao Lao',
'title': 'general manager',
'className': 'top-level',
'children': [
{ 'name': 'Bo Miao', 'title': 'department manager', 'className': 'middle-level',
'children': [
{ 'name': 'Li Jing', 'title': 'senior engineer', 'className': 'bottom-level' },
{ 'name': 'Li Xin', 'title': 'senior engineer', 'className': 'bottom-level' }
]
}
};
`
`css
.orgchart .top-level .title {
background-color: #006699;
}
.orgchart .top-level .content {
border-color: #006699;
}
.orgchart .middle-level .title {
background-color: #009933;
}
.orgchart .middle-level .content {
border-color: #009933;
}
.orgchart .bottom-level .title {
background-color: #993366;
}
.orgchart .bottom-level .content {
border-color: #993366;
}
`
!color coded

- I want a multiple-layers chart

In fact, this is a wonderful solution to display a orgchart which includes a huge number of node data.

!multiple layers

- I want a hybrid(horizontal + vertical) chart

This feature is inspired by the issues(Aligning Children Vertical, Hybrid(horizontal + vertical) OrgChart). Thank mfahadi and Destructrix for their constructive suggestions:blush:

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

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.

`js
let orgchart = new OrgChart({
'chartContainer': '#chart-container',
'data' : datascource,
'nodeContent': 'title',
'verticalDepth': 3, // From the 3th level of orgchart, nodes will be aligned vertically.
'depth': 4
});
`
!hybrid layout
