Class pv.Layout.Hierarchy


Extends pv.Layout.Network.
Represents an abstract layout for hierarchy diagrams. This class is a specialization of pv.Layout.Network, providing the basic structure for both hierarchical node-link diagrams (such as Reingold-Tilford trees) and space-filling hierarchy diagrams (such as sunbursts and treemaps).

Unlike general network layouts, the links property need not be defined explicitly. Instead, the links are computed implicitly from the parentNode attribute of the node objects, as defined by the nodes property. This implementation is also available as #links, for reuse with non-hierarchical layouts; for example, to render a tree using force-directed layout.

Correspondingly, the nodes property is represented as a union of pv.Layout.Network.Node and pv.Dom.Node. To construct a node hierarchy from a simple JSON map, use the pv.Dom operator; this operator also provides an easy way to sort nodes before passing them to the layout.

For more details on how to use this layout, see pv.Layout.Network.
Defined in: Hierarchy.js.

Class Detail
pv.Layout.Hierarchy()
Constructs a new, empty hierarchy layout. Layouts are not typically constructed directly; instead, they are added to an existing panel via pv.Mark#add.
