Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Description

The Spread physics simulation layout for Cytoscape.js (demo) (proteins demo)

The spread layout uses a force-directed physics simulation with several external libraries. The layout tries to keep elements spread out evenly, making good use of constrained space.

The layout makes use of CoSE (MIT) and rhill-voronoi-core.js (MIT). CoSE is already bundled in Cytoscape.js, and rhill-voronoi-core.js is bundled in cytoscape-spread.

There are two phases to this layout:

(1) A force-directed layout provides initial positions for the nodes. By default, the embedded version of CoSE is used, because it is fast and because it does not increase your app's bundle size any more than using Cytoscape.js itself. You can use an alternative layout by specifying options.prelayout with the layout options you want to use for the first phase (e.g. { name: 'grid' }). Alternatively, you can specify options.prelayout: false (falsey) to just use the node's existing positions for the first phase.

(2) Voronoi is used to spread out the nodes in the remaining space.

Note that since you are composing layouts with phase (1), where options.prelayout is non-falsey, you will have more layout events. For example, you will have more than one layoutstop event -- one for the Spread layout overall and one for the prelayout within phase (1) of Spread.

If you skip phase (1) with options.prelayout falsey, you will not get extra events within Spread. You can use promise chaining with two layouts to get the same effect as running a layout in phase (1), i.e.:

var layout1 = cy.makeLayout({ name: 'cose' });
var layout2 = cy.makeLayout({ name: 'spread', prelayout: false });

var run = function(l){
  var p = l.promiseOn('layoutstop');

  l.run();

  return p;
};

(
  Promise.resolve()
  .then(function(){ return run(layout1); })
  .then(function(){ return run(layout2); })
  .then(function(){ console.log('done 1 and 2') })
);

Dependencies

  • Cytoscape.js ^3.0.0
  • Weaver.js ^1.2.0

Usage instructions

Download the library:

  • via npm: npm install cytoscape-spread,
  • via bower: bower install cytoscape-spread, or
  • via direct download in the repository (probably from a tag).

require() the library as appropriate for your project:

CommonJS:

var cytoscape = require('cytoscape');
var spread = require('cytoscape-spread');

spread( cytoscape ); // register extension

AMD:

require(['cytoscape', 'cytoscape-spread', 'weaverjs'], function( cytoscape, spread, weaver ){
  spread( cytoscape, weaver ); // register extension
});

Plain HTML/JS has the extension registered for you automatically, because no require() is needed. However, the weaverjs library must be included as well.

API

Call the layout, e.g. cy.layout({ name: 'spread', ... }), with options:

var defaults = {
  animate: true, // Whether to show the layout as it's running
  ready: undefined, // Callback on layoutready
  stop: undefined, // Callback on layoutstop
  fit: true, // Reset viewport to fit default simulationBounds
  minDist: 20, // Minimum distance between nodes
  padding: 20, // Padding
  expandingFactor: -1.0, // If the network does not satisfy the minDist
  // criterium then it expands the network of this amount
  // If it is set to -1.0 the amount of expansion is automatically
  // calculated based on the minDist, the aspect ratio and the
  // number of nodes
  prelayout: { name: 'cose' }, // Layout options for the first phase
  maxExpandIterations: 4, // Maximum number of expanding iterations
  boundingBox: undefined, // Constrain layout bounds; { x1, y1, x2, y2 } or { x1, y1, w, h }
  randomize: false // Uses random initial node positions on true
};

Build targets

  • npm run test : Run Mocha tests in ./test
  • npm run build : Build ./src/** into cytoscape-spread.js
  • npm run watch : Automatically rebuild on source changes
  • npm run lint : Run eslint on the source

N.b. all builds use babel, so modern ES features can be used in the src.

Publishing instructions

This project is set up to automatically be published to npm and bower. To publish:

  1. Build the extension : npm run build:release
  2. Commit the build : git commit -am "Build for release"
  3. Bump the version number and tag: npm version major|minor|patch
  4. Push to origin: git push && git push --tags
  5. Publish to npm: npm publish .
  6. If publishing to bower for the first time, you'll need to run bower register cytoscape-spread https://github.com/cytoscape/cytoscape.js-spread.git
  7. Make a new release for Zenodo.
