Node configuration

With Popoto you can customize the display of each specific node.

The node providers defines all the functions and properties used to generate nodes on graph or viewers. This provider must contain an entry for each node labels and can be overridden to customize node rendering.

 popoto.provider.node.Provider = {}

If some functions or properties are not set in popoto.provider.node.Provider, the rendering used the default node configuration.

To add configuration you must first define the target type of the configuration, to apply the configuration for all node of that type.

To do that, wrap your configuration into an javascript object with as name the label of the desired type.

For example if we want to customize all Person nodes write:

popoto.provider.node.Provider = {
    "Person": {}
}

Now we can add all the desired configuration for the Person Node

All configuration are listed below:
