How to use Vue to create flowcharts?-Vue.js-php.cn

With the development of the Internet, more and more applications require the production of flow charts, such as work flow charts, circuit diagrams, etc. As a very popular front-end framework, Vue.js provides excellent interactivity and maintainability, so it is widely used to build complex flowchart applications.

This article will introduce how to use Vue to implement flow chart production, including the following steps:

Install the necessary dependencies
Write the basic component structure
Implement drag and drop function
Implement connection line
Implement node editing
Export flow chart
Install necessary dependencies

First, we need to install the vue-draggable-resizable library, which is a very easy-to-use Vue plug-in that can realize dragging and scaling functions of elements. We can use npm to install:

npm install vue-draggable-resizable --save

Write the basic component structure

We need to use Vue components to edit the flow chart. We need to create a FlowChart component that contains all the flowchart elements. Each node is a Node component that represents a step in the flowchart. Connection lines are Connection components used to connect different nodes.

First, we need to create an abstract FlowChart component in the FlowChart.vue file to contain all nodes and connecting lines:

<template>
  <div class="flowchart">
    <div class="nodes">
      <!-- 组件插槽，用于插入节点 -->
      <slot name="nodes"></slot>
    </div>
    <svg class="connections">
      <!-- 组件插槽，用于插入连接线 -->
      <slot name="connections"></slot>
    </svg>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
export default {
  name: 'FlowChart'
}
</script>

We place the nodes and connecting lines in the FlowChart component respectively in two slots.

Next, we need to create Node and Connection components to represent the nodes and connection lines of the flow chart:

Node.vue:

<template>
  <draggable-resizable :w="width" :h="height" :x="x" :y="y">
    <div class="node">
      <!-- 节点的内容 -->
      <div class="node-content">
        <slot></slot>
      </div>
    </div>
  </draggable-resizable>
</template>

<script>
import VueDraggableResizable from 'vue-draggable-resizable'

export default {
  name: 'Node',
  components: {
    VueDraggableResizable
  },
  props: {
    width: {
      type: Number,
      default: 100
    },
    height: {
      type: Number,
      default: 50
    },
    x: {
      type: Number,
      default: 0
    },
    y: {
      type: Number,
      default: 0
    }
  }
}
</script>

Connection.vue:

<template>
  <svg class="connection">
    <!-- SVG 路径元素，用于绘制连接线 -->
    <path :d="path"></path>
  </svg>
</template>

<script>
export default {
  name: 'Connection',
  props: {
    start: Object,
    end: Object
  },
  computed: {
    path () {
      // 计算连接线的路径
      const startX = this.start.x + this.start.width / 2
      const startY = this.start.y + this.start.height / 2
      const endX = this.end.x + this.end.width / 2
      const endY = this.end.y + this.end.height / 2
      return `M ${startX} ${startY} L ${endX} ${endY}`
    }
  }
}
</script>

We use the vue-draggable-resizable component to implement dragging and scaling of nodes, in which the width, height, x, y and other attributes of the node need to be passed. The connecting line is drawn using the SVG path element, and the path needs to be calculated based on the position and size of the node.

Implement the drag and drop function

In order to realize the drag and drop function of the node, we need to add v-on:drag, v-on:dragstop and v in the Node component -on:resize event listener. They respectively correspond to the dragging, ending dragging and resizing of the node:

<draggable-resizable
  :w="width"
  :h="height"
  :x="x"
  :y="y"
  v-on:drag="onDrag"
  v-on:dragstop="onDragStop"
  v-on:resize="onResize"
>
  <!-- 节点的内容 -->
</draggable-resizable>

<script>
export default {
  name: 'Node',
  methods: {
    onDrag (pos) {
      // 拖拽事件处理函数
      this.$emit('move', {
        x: pos.x,
        y: pos.y
      })
    },
    onDragStop (pos) {
      // 结束拖拽事件处理函数
      this.$emit('endMove', {
        x: pos.x,
        y: pos.y
      })
    },
    onResize (size) {
      // 调整大小事件处理函数
      this.$emit('resize', {
        width: size.width,
        height: size.height
      })
    }
  }
}
</script>

We send events to the parent component through the $emit method in these event handling functions to achieve real-time updates of the node position and size. In the FlowChart component, we need to listen to these events and update the node information:

<template>
  <div class="flowchart">
    <div class="nodes">
      <!-- 将节点插入到插槽中 -->
      <slot name="nodes"></slot>
    </div>
    <svg class="connections">
      <!-- 将连接线插入到插槽中 -->
      <slot name="connections"></slot>
      <!-- 鼠标跟随的连接线 -->
      <Connection v-if="showConnection"
                  :start="{x: start.x + start.width / 2, y: start.y + start.height / 2, width: start.width, height: start.height}"
                  :end="{x: end.x + end.width / 2, y: end.y + end.height / 2, width: end.width, height: end.height}"/>
    </svg>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
import Node from './Node.vue'
import Connection from './Connection.vue'

export default {
  name: 'FlowChart',
  components: {
    Node,
    Connection
  },
  data () {
    return {
      showConnection: false,
      start: null, // 起点节点
      end: null // 终点节点
    }
  },
  methods: {
    onNodeMove (node, pos) {
      // 节点拖拽时的事件处理函数
      node.x = pos.x
      node.y = pos.y
    },
    onNodeEndMove (node, pos) {
      // 节点结束拖拽时的事件处理函数
      node.x = pos.x
      node.y = pos.y
      this.showConnection = false
      this.start = null
      this.end = null
    },
    onNodeResize (node, size) {
      // 节点调整大小时的事件处理函数
      node.width = size.width
      node.height = size.height
    },
    connectNodes (start, end) {
      // 连接两个节点
      this.showConnection = true
      this.start = start
      this.end = end
    }
  }
}
</script>

We have defined three event handling functions onNodeMove, onNodeEndMove and onNodeResize to respond to the dragging, end dragging and adjustment of the node. size. The connectNodes function is used to connect two nodes.

Implementing the connection line

In the FlowChart component, we define a showConnection variable and two variables start and end to save the information of the connection line. We need to update this information through mouse events to draw the connection line.

First, we need to add listening for v-on:mousedown and v-on:mouseup events in the Node component. These events are used to detect whether the user has selected a node:

<draggable-resizable
  :w="width"
  :h="height"
  :x="x"
  :y="y"
  v-on:drag="onDrag"
  v-on:dragstop="onDragStop"
  v-on:resize="onResize"
  v-on:mousedown="onMouseDown"
  v-on:mouseup="onMouseUp"
>
  <!-- 节点的内容 -->
</draggable-resizable>

<script>
export default {
  name: 'Node',
  methods: {
    ...
    onMouseDown () {
      // 鼠标按下时选中当前节点
      this.$emit('select', this)
    },
    onMouseUp () {
      // 鼠标松开时取消选中
      this.$emit('unselect')
    }
  }
}
</script>

Copy after login

We send a select event to the parent component in the onMouseDown event handler function to select the current node. In the FlowChart component, we need to listen to this event:

<template>
  <div class="flowchart">
    <div class="nodes">
      <!-- 将节点插入到插槽中 -->
      <slot name="nodes"></slot>
    </div>
    <svg class="connections">
      <!-- 将连接线插入到插槽中 -->
      <slot name="connections"></slot>
      <!-- 鼠标跟随的连接线 -->
      <Connection v-if="showConnection"
                  :start="{x: start.x + start.width / 2, y: start.y + start.height / 2, width: start.width, height: start.height}"
                  :end="{x: end.x + end.width / 2, y: end.y + end.height / 2, width: end.width, height: end.height}"/>
    </svg>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
import Node from './Node.vue'
import Connection from './Connection.vue'

export default {
  name: 'FlowChart',
  components: {
    Node,
    Connection
  },
  data () {
    return {
      showConnection: false,
      start: null, // 起点节点
      end: null // 终点节点
    }
  },
  methods: {
    ...
    onSelectNode (node) {
      // 选中节点时的事件处理函数
      if (this.start) {
        // 已选择起点，连接当前节点
        this.end = node
        this.connectNodes(this.start, this.end)
      } else {
        // 选择起点
        this.start = node
      }
    },
    onUnselectNode () {
      // 取消选中节点时的事件处理函数
      this.start = null
      this.end = null
      this.showConnection = false
    }
  }
}
</script>

We determine whether the starting point node is currently selected in the onSelectNode event handler function, and if so, connect the current node; otherwise, set the current node as the starting point. In the onUnselectNode event handler, unselect the node and reset the connection line information.

Implement node editing

In order to implement node editing, we need to add an edit button in Node.vue and listen to its click event:

<template>
  <draggable-resizable ...>
    <div class="node">
      <div class="node-content" v-on:click="$emit('edit')">
        <!-- 节点的内容 -->
      </div>
      <button class="edit-button" v-on:click="$emit('edit')">
        编辑
      </button>
    </div>
  </draggable-resizable>
</template>

<script>
export default {
  name: 'Node'
}
</script>

<style>
.edit-button {
  position: absolute;
  bottom: 5px;
  right: 5px;
}
</style>

Copy after login

Next, listen to the edit event in FlowChart.vue and display an input box on the selected node:

<template>
  <div class="flowchart">
    <div class="nodes">
      <!-- 将节点插入到插槽中 -->
      <slot name="nodes"></slot>
    </div>
    <svg class="connections">
      <!-- 将连接线插入到插槽中 -->
      <slot name="connections"></slot>
      <!-- 鼠标跟随的连接线 -->
      <Connection v-if="showConnection"
                  :start="{x: start.x + start.width / 2, y: start.y + start.height / 2, width: start.width, height: start.height}"
                  :end="{x: end.x + end.width / 2, y: end.y + end.height / 2, width: end.width, height: end.height}"/>
    </svg>

    <!-- 编辑区域 -->
    <div class="edit-panel" v-if="selectedNode">
      <h3>编辑节点</h3>
      <form v-on:submit.prevent="saveNode">
        <label for="node-label">节点名称</label>
        <input id="node-label" type="text" v-model="nodeLabel">
        <button type="submit">保存</button>
      </form>
    </div>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
export default {
  name: 'FlowChart',
  data () {
    return {
      showConnection: false,
      start: null, // 起点节点
      end: null, // 终点节点
      selectedNode: null, // 选中的节点
      nodeLabel: '' // 当前节点的标签
    }
  },
  methods: {
    ...
    onSelectNode (node) {
      // 选中节点时的事件处理函数
      if (this.start) {
        // 已选择起点，连接当前节点
        this.end = node
        this.connectNodes(this.start, this.end)
        this.selectedNode = null
      } else {
        // 选择起点
        this.start = node
      }
    },
    onUnselectNode () {
      // 取消选中节点时的事件处理函数
      this.start = null
      this.end = null
      this.showConnection = false
      this.selectedNode = null
    },
    onEditNode (node) {
      // 编辑节点时的事件处理函数
      this.selectedNode = node
      this.nodeLabel = node.$slots.default[0].text.trim()
    },
    saveNode () {
      // 保存节点编辑后的信息
      this.selectedNode.$slots.default[0].text = this.nodeLabel
      this.selectedNode = null
    }
  }
}
</script>

<style>
.edit-panel {
  position: absolute;
  top: 0;
  right: 0;
  width: 300px;
  height: 100%;
  background: #fff;
  padding: 20px;
  box-shadow: -1px 0 10px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);
}
</style>

We added this.selectedNode = null in the onSelectNode event handler function to hide the node Edit box. In the onEditNode event handler, we send an edit event to the parent component to display an input box to edit the selected node. We save the edited information of the node in the saveNode event handler function.

Export flow chart

Finally, we can add an export button in FlowChart.vue to export the current flow chart to JSON format:

<template>
  <div class="flowchart">
    <div class="nodes">
      <!-- 将节点插入到插槽中 -->
      <slot name="nodes"></slot>
    </div>
    <svg class="connections">
      <!-- 将连接线插入到插槽中 -->
      <slot name="connections"></slot>
      <!-- 鼠标跟随的连接线 -->
      <Connection v-if="showConnection"
                  :start="{x: start.x + start.width / 2, y: start.y + start.height / 2, width: start.width, height: start.height}"
                  :end="{x: end.x + end.width / 2, y: end.y + end.height / 2, width: end.width, height: end.height}"/>
    </svg>

    <!-- 编辑区域 -->
    ...

    <!-- 导出按钮 -->
    <button class="export-button" v-on:click="exportFlowchart">导出</button>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
export default {
  name: 'FlowChart',
  methods: {
    ...
    exportFlowchart () {
      // 导出流程图
      const nodes = []
      const connections = []
      this.$slots.nodes.forEach(vnode => {
        const node = vnode.componentInstance
        nodes.push({
          x: node.x,
          y: node.y,
          width: node.width,
          height: node.height,
          label: node.$slots.default[0].text.trim()
        })
      })
