npm i d3-org-chart

.render();
In general, we encourage to look into the source code to understand how it works. The chart code is basically a single class. At the top of the class, we have a state object called attrs
which stores the state of the org chart and each single property is overridable by the user.
For example, one of the property name inside attrs
object is duration
, which controls animation duration for chart, when expanding or collapsing nodes.
If we want to get the value, we can either do
chart.getChartState().duration
or directly
chart.duration()
chart
in the above case is an instance of OrgChart
class. We can get it using new OrgChart()
If we want to set property, we can pass argument to the same function and it will automatically set the value
chart.duration(3000) // This will become very slow moving chart
You can see list of all properties , their description of what each property does in the actual source code.
Line 41 in 5be7e09
Be aware that they are chainable, so if we wanted to set multiple properties, we would do this
const chart = new OrgChart()
.data(ourData)
.container(ourDomElementOrCssSelector)
.duration(ourDuration)
.render()
// We can keep chaining values in runtime
chart.data(updatedData).render()
Have you impressively customized an organizational chart and want to be featured on this page? Just email me at [email protected] and include screenshot of your org chart and it will be featured on this page (dimensions of image should be 500 X 500).

I created this org-chart when I was hired by TeamApps.
Although this Org chart was specifically created for teamapps java web application framework , it's very flexible and can be used in any environment, where d3 and DOM is accessible.
Big thanks to Matthias and Yann, who assembled requirements for org-chart and had valuable pieces of advice afterwads.
Also, thanks all people who made generous donations, it gives me motivation to further improve this org chart component.
Thanks contractzen for the significant contribution, which made implementation of some of the most important features (optimal layout, exporting ) possible.
