Sika Graph

Given nodes, links, groups, an optional options object, and an optional filter, return the plottable graph data for a Sika Graph. The filter needs to be a part of this (instead of the data being passed in) to prevent the graph thrashing when all of the plot points for the data change.

Deploys to npm as @sikaeducation/sika-graph.

Installation

npm i @sikaeducation/sika-graph
