# Custom SVG Shapes Library
This library provides a collection of custom SVG shapes, utilities, and helpers for generating diagram components. The shapes are designed to be used within an SVG container and include a variety of common and complex shapes.
## Overview
## Shape Helpers and Utilities
Before starting with shape creation, it's essential to familiarize yourself with the utilities provided in the `utils.ts` file from `packages/mermaid/src/rendering-util/rendering-elements/shapes/util.js`. These utilities are designed to assist with various aspects of SVG shape manipulation and ensure consistent and accurate rendering.
## Available Utilities
### 1. `labelHelper`
- **Purpose**: This function creates and inserts labels inside SVG shapes.
- **Features**:
- Handles both HTML labels and plain text.
- Calculates the bounding box dimensions of the label.
- Ensures proper positioning of labels within shapes.
### 2. `updateNodeBounds`
- **Purpose**: Updates the bounding box dimensions (width and height) of a node.
- **Usage**:
- Adjusts the size of the node to fit the content or shape.
- Useful for ensuring that shapes resize appropriately based on their content.
### 3. `insertPolygonShape`
- **Purpose**: Inserts a polygon shape into an SVG container.
- **Features**:
- Handles the creation and insertion of complex polygonal shapes.
- Configures the shape's appearance and positioning within the SVG container.
### 4. `getNodeClasses`
- **Purpose**: Returns the appropriate CSS classes for a node based on its configuration.
- **Usage**:
- Dynamically applies CSS classes to nodes for styling purposes.
- Ensures that nodes adhere to the desired design and theme.
### 5. `createPathFromPoints`
- **Purpose**: Generates an SVG path string from an array of points.
- **Usage**:
- Converts a list of points into a smooth path.
- Useful for creating custom shapes or paths within the SVG.
### 6. `generateFullSineWavePoints`
- **Purpose**: Generates points for a sine wave, useful for creating wavy-edged shapes.
- **Usage**:
- Facilitates the creation of shapes with wavy or sine-wave edges.
- Can be used to add decorative or dynamic edges to shapes.
## Getting Started
To utilize these utilities, simply import them from the `utils.ts` file into your shape creation script. These helpers will streamline the process of building and customizing SVG shapes, ensuring consistent results across your projects.
```typescript
import {
labelHelper,
updateNodeBounds,
insertPolygonShape,
getNodeClasses,
createPathFromPoints,
generateFullSineWavePoints,
} from './utils.ts';
```
## Example Usage
Heres a basic example of how you might use some of these utilities:
```typescript
import { labelHelper, insertPolygonShape } from './utils.ts';
const svgContainer = document.getElementById('svgContainer');
// Insert a polygon shape
insertPolygonShape(svgContainer /* shape-specific parameters */);
// Create and insert a label inside the shape
labelHelper(svgContainer /* label-specific parameters */);
```
## Adding New Shapes
### 1. Create the Shape Function
To add a new shape:
- **Create the shape function**: Create a new file of name of the shape and export a function in the `shapes` directory that generates your shape. The file and function should follow the pattern used in existing shapes and return an SVG element.
- **Example**:
```typescript
import { Node, RenderOptions } from '../../types.ts';
export const myNewShape = async (
parent: SVGAElement,
node: Node,
renderOptions: RenderOptions
) => {
// Create your shape here
const shape = parent.insert('g').attr('class', 'my-new-shape');
// Add other elements or styles as needed
return shape;
};
```
### 2. Register the Shape
- **Register the shape**: Add your shape to the `shapes` object in the [main shapes module](../rendering-util/rendering-elements/shapes.ts). This allows your shape to be recognized and used within the system.
- **Example**:
```typescript
import { myNewShape } from './shapes/myNewShape';
const shapes = {
...,
{
semanticName: 'My Shape',
name: 'Shape Name',
shortName: '<short-name>',
description: '<Description for the shape>',
aliases: ['<alias-one>', '<al-on>', '<alias-two>', '<al-two>'],
handler: myNewShape,
},
};
```
# Shape Intersection Algorithms
This contains algorithms and utilities for calculating intersection points for various shapes in SVG. Arrow intersection points are crucial for accurately determining where arrows connect with shapes. Ensuring precise intersection points enhances the clarity and accuracy of flowcharts and diagrams.
## Shape Intersection Functions
### 1. `Ellipse`
Calculates the intersection points for an ellipse.
**Usage**:
```javascript
import intersectEllipse from './intersect-ellipse.js';
const intersection = intersectEllipse(node, rx, ry, point);
```
- **Parameters**:
- `node`: The SVG node element.
- `rx`: The x-radius of the ellipse.
- `ry`: The y-radius of the ellipse.
- `point`: The point from which the intersection is calculated.
### 2. `intersectRect`
Calculates the intersection points for a rectangle.
**Usage**:
```javascript
import intersectRect from './intersect-rect.js';
const intersection = intersectRect(node, point);
```
- **Parameters**:
- `node`: The SVG node element.
- `point`: The point from which the intersection is calculated.
### 3. `intersectPolygon`
Calculates the intersection points for a polygon.
**Usage**:
```javascript
import intersectPolygon from './intersect-polygon.js';
const intersection = intersectPolygon(node, polyPoints, point);
```
- **Parameters**:
- `node`: The SVG node element.
- `polyPoints`: Array of points defining the polygon.
- `point`: The point from which the intersection is calculated.
## Cypress Tests
To ensure the robustness of the flowchart shapes, there are implementation of comprehensive Cypress test cases in `newShapes.spec.ts` file. These tests cover various aspects such as:
- **Shapes**: Testing new shapes like `bowTieRect`, `waveRectangle`, `trapezoidalPentagon`, etc.
- **Looks**: Verifying shapes under different visual styles (`classic` and `handDrawn`).
- **Directions**: Ensuring correct rendering in all flow directions of arrows :
- `TB` `(Top -> Bottom)`
- `BT` `(Bottom -> Top)`
- `LR` `(Left -> Right)`
- `RL` `(Right -> Left)`
- **Labels**: Testing shapes with different labels, including:
- No labels
- Short labels
- Very long labels
- Markdown with `htmlLabels:true` and `htmlLabels:false`
- **Styles**: Applying custom styles to shapes and verifying correct rendering.
- **Class Definitions**: Using `classDef` to apply custom classes and testing their impact.
### Running the Tests
To run the Cypress tests, follow these steps:
1. Ensure you have all dependencies installed by running:
```bash
pnpm install
```
2. Start the Cypress test runner:
```bash
cypress open --env updateSnapshots=true
```
3. Select the test suite from the Cypress interface to run all the flowchart shape tests.

# Registering icon pack in mermaid
The icon packs available can be found at [icones.js.org](https://icones.js.org/).
We use the name defined when registering the icon pack, to override the prefix field of the iconify pack. This allows the user to use shorter names for the icons. It also allows us to load a particular pack only when it is used in a diagram.
Using JSON file directly from CDN:
```js
import mermaid from 'CDN/mermaid.esm.mjs';
mermaid.registerIconPacks([
{
name: 'logos',
loader: () =>
fetch('https://unpkg.com/@iconify-json/logos@1/icons.json').then((res) => res.json()),
},
]);
```
Using packages and a bundler:
```bash
npm install @iconify-json/logos@1
```
With lazy loading
```js
import mermaid from 'mermaid';
mermaid.registerIconPacks([
{
name: 'logos',
loader: () => import('@iconify-json/logos').then((module) => module.icons),
},
]);
```
Without lazy loading
```js
import mermaid from 'mermaid';
import { icons } from '@iconify-json/logos';
mermaid.registerIconPacks([
{
name: icons.prefix, // To use the prefix defined in the icon pack
icons,
},
]);
```

This example demonstrates how Mermaid dynamically adjusts the width of the columns to accommodate the widest block, in this case, 'a' and the composite block 'e'. This dynamic adjustment is essential for creating visually balanced and easy-to-understand diagrams.
**Merging Blocks Horizontally:**
In scenarios where you need to stack blocks horizontally, you can use column width to accomplish the task. Blocks can be arranged vertically by putting them in a single column. Here is how you can create a block diagram in which 4 blocks are stacked on top of each other:
```mermaid-example
block-beta
block
columns 1
a["A label"] b c d
end
```
```mermaid
block-beta
block
columns 1
a["A label"] b c d
end
```
In this example, the width of the merged block dynamically adjusts to the width of the largest child block.
With these advanced configuration options, Mermaid's block diagrams can be tailored to represent a wide array of complex systems and structures. The flexibility offered by these features enables users to create diagrams that are both informative and visually appealing. In the following sections, we will explore further capabilities, including different block shapes and linking options.

## Expanded Node Shapes in Mermaid Flowcharts (v11.3.0+)
Mermaid introduces 30 new shapes to enhance the flexibility and precision of flowchart creation. These new shapes provide more options to represent processes, decisions, events, data storage visually, and other elements within your flowcharts, improving clarity and semantic meaning.
New Syntax for Shape Definition
Mermaid now supports a general syntax for defining shape types to accommodate the growing number of shapes. This syntax allows you to assign specific shapes to nodes using a clear and flexible format:
```
A@{ shape: rect }
```
This syntax creates a node A as a rectangle. It renders in the same way as `A["A"]`, or `A`.
### Complete List of New Shapes

## Special shapes in Mermaid Flowcharts (v11.3.0+)
Mermaid also introduces 2 special shapes to enhance your flowcharts: **icon** and **image**. These shapes allow you to include icons and images directly within your flowcharts, providing more visual context and clarity.
### Icon Shape
You can use the `icon` shape to include an icon in your flowchart. To use icons, you need to register the icon pack first. Follow the instructions provided [here](../config/icons.md). The syntax for defining an icon shape is as follows:
```mermaid-example
flowchart TD
A@{ icon: "fa:user", form: "square", label: "User Icon", pos: "t", h: 60 }
```
```mermaid
flowchart TD
A@{ icon: "fa:user", form: "square", label: "User Icon", pos: "t", h: 60 }
```
### Parameters
- **icon**: The name of the icon from the registered icon pack.
- **form**: Specifies the background shape of the icon. If not defined there will be no background to icon. Options include:
- `square`
- `circle`
- `rounded`
- **label**: The text label associated with the icon. This can be any string. If not defined, no label will be displayed.
- **pos**: The position of the label. If not defined label will default to bottom of icon. Possible values are:
- `t`
- `b`
- **h**: The height of the icon. If not defined this will default to 48 which is minimum.
### Image Shape
You can use the `image` shape to include an image in your flowchart. The syntax for defining an image shape is as follows:
```mermaid-example
flowchart TD
A@{ img: "https://example.com/image.png", label: "Image Label", pos: "t", w: 60, h: 60, constraint: "off" }
```
```mermaid
flowchart TD
A@{ img: "https://example.com/image.png", label: "Image Label", pos: "t", w: 60, h: 60, constraint: "off" }
```
### Parameters
- **img**: The URL of the image to be displayed.
- **label**: The text label associated with the image. This can be any string. If not defined, no label will be displayed.
- **pos**: The position of the label. If not defined, the label will default to the bottom of the image. Possible values are:
- `t`
- `b`
- **w**: The width of the image. If not defined, this will default to the natural width of the image.
- **h**: The height of the image. If not defined, this will default to the natural height of the image.
- **constraint**: Determines if the image should constrain the node size. This setting also ensures the image maintains its original aspect ratio, adjusting the height (`h`) accordingly to the width (`w`). If not defined, this will default to `off` Possible values are:
- `on`
- `off`
These new shapes provide additional flexibility and visual appeal to your flowcharts, making them more informative and engaging.
## Links between nodes
Nodes can be connected with links/edges. It is possible to have different types of links or attach a text string to a link.
