API

ArcherContainer

ArcherElement

The Relation type has the following shape:

{
  from: {
    anchor: 'top' | 'bottom' | 'left' | 'right'
  },
  to: {
    anchor: 'top' | 'bottom' | 'left' | 'right'
    id: string
  },
  label: React.Node
}

TODO

• Automatic anchoring option
• Options to customize the path shape more (straight line, right angle line, smoothed right angle path)
• Add a Code Sandbox
