Introduction

Custom edges for React Flow that never intersect with other nodes, using grid-based A* pathfinding.

Install

With npm:

npm install @tisoap/react-flow-smart-edge

With yarn:

yarn add @tisoap/react-flow-smart-edge

This package requires React Flow v12+ (@xyflow/react).

What you get

• SmartBezierEdge: smart equivalent to React Flow's BezierEdge
• SmartStraightEdge: smart equivalent to StraightEdge
• SmartStepEdge: smart equivalent to StepEdge
• SmartSmoothStepEdge: smart equivalent to SmoothStepEdge
• SmartSimpleBezierEdge: smart equivalent to SimpleBezierEdge
• SmartFloatingEdge: floating edges example with obstacle routing
• SmartEditableEdge: editable edge example with pathfinding between segments
• SmartCheckpointEdge: fixed waypoints from edge.data.checkpoints (library-only; no React Flow example)
• createSmartEdge: configure presets at module scope
• getSmartEdge: build fully custom smart edges
• SmartEdgeBatchRoutingProvider and useSmartEdgeRoute: route large graphs off the main thread on a Web Worker
