Neo4j graph visualization using D3.js.

neo3jd3.js

Features

  • Compaptible with the Neo4j data format and the D3.js data format.
  • Force simulation.
  • Info panel that shows nodes and relationships information on hover.
  • Double click callbacks.
  • Custom node colors by node type.
  • Text nodes + Font Awesome icon nodes + SVG image nodes (e.g. using Twitter Emoji)).
  • Sticky nodes (drag to stick, single click to unstick).
  • Dynamic graph update (e.g. double click a node to expand it).
  • Highlight nodes on init.
  • Relationship auto-orientation.
  • Zoom, pan, auto fit.
  • Compatible with D3.js v4.

Running

First of all, make sure you have ruby and sass gem installed. Then, clone the repository, install all dependencies, build and serve the project.

> gem install sass
> git clone https://github.com/eisman/neo4jd3.git

JavaScript API

Function Description
appendRandomDataToNode(d, maxNodesToGenerate) Generates between 1 and maxNodesToGenerate random nodes connected to node d and updates the graph data.
neo4jDataToD3Data(data) Converts data from Neo4j data format to D3.js data format.
randomD3Data(d, maxNodesToGenerate) Generates between 1 and maxNodesToGenerate random nodes connected to node d.
size() Returns the number of nodes and relationships.
Example:
{
    nodes: 25,
    relationships: 50
}
updateWithD3Data(d3Data) Updates the graph data using the D3.js data format.
