cytoscape.js

Documentation

You can find the documentation on the project website, or you may be interested in downloading the library. This readme is mostly for developers of Cytoscape.js.

Acknowledgements

Arbor was used in one of Cytoscape.js's included layouts. We made some modifications to the library, written by Samizdat Drafting Co., so that it would work with multiple instances of Cytoscape.js and that it would work on lesser browsers, like IE. Information about this library can be found at the Arbor website and on GitHub where the original code was forked.

Adding source files

When adding source (.js) files to the repository, there are several files that should be updated accordingly:

  • Makefile : Include the file in the build process so that the concatenated and minified files generated for distribution include the new file.

  • src/debug/index.html : Update the <script> tag list with the file so that the debug page can continue to be used to visually test the library.

  • tests/index.html : Update the list of JavaScript files that the testing framework considers to consistute the library. Otherwise, the tests will almost certainly fail.

Build dependencies

You need a number of executables installed on your system to successfully run make to build the project.

Their paths are defined in Makefile, so you can revise the paths to these executables and still run make successfully. You should be able to run make without modification on any well configured Unix-like machine, such as Linux or Mac OS X---Mac needs XCode with command line tools installed to run make.

Build instructions

Run make in the console. The targets are:

  • all : build everything (default)
  • minify : build the production minified JS
  • zip : minify and make a ZIP file for release
  • clean : deletes built files

A note to developers:

For zip, make sure to define VERSION in Makefile if you're making an actual release ZIP.

Release instructions

  1. Make sure the qunit tests are passing on jQuery 1.4-latest (may need to add new versions to the tests).
  2. Update package.json with the new version number.
  3. Make a release ZIP: make zip
  4. Put the release ZIP -- after upload -- on the download page.
  5. Build and upload the docs to gh-pages.
  6. Update bower.json.
  7. Tag the repo with the version number.

Tests

QUnit tests are found in the tests directory. The tests are automatically run against different versions of jQuery.
