React Gantt Demos

NPM package

Getting Started

npm run start Runs the app in the development mode.

Open http://localhost:3000 to view it in the browser.

Supported functionality

Common with DHTMLX Gantt

  • adding/editing/deleting tasks and links
  • tasks, projects and milestones
  • configurable scales and grids
  • configurable tooltips
  • time markers

Unique features

  • react widgets can be used for tasks rendering, tooltips and form controls
  • all configuration properties are reactive
  • full react sources are provided

Usage

Installation

  • add library to your react project
npm install @dhtmlx/trial-react-gantt

This will install trial version, for commercial one, use "@dhx/react-gantt"

  • place Gantt tag into the desired page
import { Gantt, DefaultTheme } from "@dhtmlx/trial-react-gantt";

export default function GanttBasic() {
  return (
    <DefaultTheme>
      <Gantt />
    </DefaultTheme>
  );
}

You can check the demo of mininal project here - https://stackblitz.com/edit/react-gantt-basic

Source code of the gantt can be checked in node_modules/@dhtmlx/trial-react-gantt/src

Themes

Package contains two predefined themes - Default and Material.

You can apply theme by wrapping Gantt into DefaultTheme or MaterialTheme tags

<div>
    <DefaultTheme>
        <Gantt />
    </DefaultTheme>
    <MaterialTheme>
        <Gantt />
    </MaterialTheme>
</div>

or you can just add theme tag on the page and add skin class to one of Gantt's parent tags

<div>
    <DefaultTheme />
    <MaterialTheme />

    <div class="wx-default"><Gantt /></div>
    <div class="wx-material"><Gantt /></div>
</div>

Initialization

You can define scales/columns/tasks/links during Gantt initialization

<Gantt scales={scales} columns={columns} tasks={tasks} links={links} />

where data may look like next

const scales = [
  { unit: "month", step: 1, format: "MMMM yyy" },
  { unit: "day", step: 1, format: "d" }
];

const columns = [
  { name: "text", label: "Task name", width: "100%" },
  { name: "start", label: "Start time", align: "center" },
  { name: "duration", label: "Duration", width: "70px", align: "center" },
  { name: "add-task", label: "", width: "50px", align: "center" }
];

const tasks = [
  {
    id: 1,
    open: true,
    start_date: "2020-11-06",
    duration: 8,
    text: "React Gantt Widget",
    progress: 60,
    type: "project"
  },
  {
    id: 2,
    parent: 1,
    start_date: "2020-11-06",
    duration: 4,
    text: "Lib-Gantt",
    progress: 80
  }
];

const links = [
  { source: 2, target: 1, type: 0 }
];

Integration with backend

Check https://github.com/web-widgets/react-gantt-demos/blob/master/src/GanttBackend.js

Code defines the action handler through save property. This handler will be triggered on any update and may be used to save changes to the persistent storage.

In the above example, the RestDataProvider is used https://github.com/web-widgets/gantt-data-provider/blob/master/src/providers/rest.ts You are not limited to this solution, though, and can extend the provided class or define a custom handler.

We provide 2 demo backends, with nodejs and go

again, you are not limited to this solution. The above RestDataProvider can work with any REST like service and you can implement a fully custom solution ( sockets, graphql, etc. ) through custom save handler.

Templates

The next elements can be customized through templates

  • task text
  • sidebar form

check https://github.com/web-widgets/react-gantt-demos/blob/master/src/GanttText.js

  • tooltip content

check https://github.com/web-widgets/react-gantt-demos/blob/master/src/GanttTooltips.js

API

Properties

    // templates for different elements of gantt
    let templates = {};
    // array of markers
    let markers = [];
    // supported task types
    let taskTypes = ["task", "project", "milestone"];
    // tasks data
    let tasks = [];
    // links data
    let links = [];
    // time scales configuration
    let scales = [
        { unit: "month", step: 1, format: "MMMM yyy" },
        { unit: "day", step: 1, format: "d" },
    ];
    // grid configuration
    let columns = [
        { name: "text", label: "Task name", width: "100%" },
        { name: "add-task", label: "", width: "50px", align: "center" },
    ];
    // time scale start
    let start = null;
    // time scale end
    let end = null;
    // width of scale cell
    let cellWidth = 100;
    // height of chart bar
    let cellHeight = 38;
    // height of scale cell
    let scaleHeight = 30;
    // readonly mode flag
    let readonly = false;
    // show or hide grid
    let grid = true;
    // show or hide tooltips
    let tooltip = null;
    // show or hide borders in the chart area
    let borders = "full";

Callbacks

    // will be called with DataStore value on Gantt initalization
    let store = null;
    // will be called on any action in the Gantt
    let actions = null;
    // will be called on any data modification in the Gantt
    let save = null;

Actions

Data modifications ( both action and save )

  • add-link
  • update-link
  • delete-link
  • add-task
  • update-task
  • delete-task

UI State ( action )

  • data-request
  • hide-details
  • move-task
  • scroll-chart
  • select-task
  • show-details
  • task-toggle
  • update-task-time

Example of callback usage

function handler({ action, obj, id }){
    if (action === "select-task")
        console.log(`Task ${id} was selected`);
}

<Gantt action={handler}/>

Methods

let store;

<Gantt store={v => store = v}/>

and now you can use store's API to get or modify data.

interface IStore {
    getTask(id:number):GanttItemData;
    updateTask(id:number, obj:any, noSave:boolean):void;
    updateLink(id:number, obj: any, noSave:boolean):void;
    action(id:number, action:string, obj:StringHash<any>, noSave?: boolean):number;
}

action method can be used to trigger any of above actions

store.action(taskId, "tasks-toggle");
store.action(linkId, "delete-link");
store.action(null, "add-link", { source: 1, target 2, type: 0 });
