New 2017-Oct-16: master is now webtreemap v2, a complete rewrite with bug fixes, more features, and a different (simpler) API. If you're looking for the old webtreemap, see the v1 branch.

A simple treemap implementation using web technologies (DOM nodes, CSS styling and transitions) rather than a big canvas/svg/plugin. It's usable as a library as part of a larger web app, but it also includes a command-line app that dumps a self-contained HTML file that displays a map.

Play with a demo.

The data format is a tree of Node, where each node is an object in the shape described at the top of tree.ts.

<script src='webtreemap.js'></script> <script> // Container must have its own width/height. const container = document.getElementById('myContainer'); // See typings for full API definition. webtreemap.render(container, data, options);

Install with

$ npm i webtreemap

Then run with:

$ webtreemap -o output_file < my_data

Input data format is space-separated lines of "size path", where size is a number and path is a '/'-delimited path. For example:

$ cat my_data 100 all 50 all/thing1 25 all/thing2

This is exactly the output produced by du, so this works:

$ du -ab some_path | webtreemap -o out.html

But note that there's nothing file-system-specific about the data format -- it just uses slash as a nesting delimiter.

The modules of webtreemap can be used both from the web and from the command line, so the build has two layers. The command line app embeds the output of the build into its output so it's a bit confusing.

To build everything, run yarn run build.

To hack on webtreemap, the pieces of the build are:

1. yarn run tsc builds all the .ts files;
2. yarn run webpack builds the UMD web version from JS of the above.

Because command line embeds the web version in its output, you need to run step 2 before running the output of step 1. Also note we intentionally don't use webpack's ts-loader because we want the TypeScript output for the command-line app.

Use yarn run tsc -w to keep the npm-compatible JS up to date, then run e.g.:

$ du -ab node_modules/ | node build/src/cli.js --title 'node_modules usage' -o demo.html
