JavaScript/jQuery Sankey Options
This section describes properties that configure the Sankey UI component's contents, behavior and appearance.
See Also
adaptiveLayout
The adaptive layout enables the UI component to hide optional elements if they do not fit in the container. Elements are hidden in the following sequence:
- Title
- Export menu icon
- Labels (can be saved by setting the adaptiveLayout.keepLabels property to true)
Use the height and width properties in the adaptiveLayout object to specify the minimum container size at which the layout begins to adapt.
alignment
A string value aligns all node columns uniformly. An array of strings allows you to align each node column individually. For example, the Sankey UI component contains four columns, and the alignment property is specified as follows:
jQuery
$(function() { $("#sankeyContainer").dxSankey({ // ... alignment: ["top", "bottom", "bottom"] }); });
Angular
<dx-sankey ... [alignment]="['top', 'bottom', 'bottom']"> </dx-sankey>
import { DxSankeyModule } from "devextreme-angular"; // ... export class AppComponent { // ... } @NgModule({ imports: [ // ... DxSankeyModule ], // ... })
Vue
<template> <DxSankey ... :alignment="['top', 'bottom', 'bottom']"> </DxSankey> </template> <script> import DxSankey from 'devextreme-vue/sankey'; export default { components: { DxSankey } } </script>
React
import React from 'react'; import Sankey from 'devextreme-react/sankey'; const alignmentValues = [ 'top', 'bottom', 'bottom' ]; class App extends React.Component { render() { return ( <Sankey ... alignment={alignmentValues}> </Sankey> ); } } export default App;
With this setting, the leftmost node column is aligned to the top, and the next two columns are aligned to the bottom. The rightmost column does not have a value in the alignment array and is aligned to the center (according to the default value).
dataSource
The Sankey works with collections of objects.
Depending on your data source, bind the Sankey to data as follows. In each case, also specify the sourceField, targetField, and weightField properties.
Data Array
Assign the array to the dataSource option. View DemoRead-Only Data in JSON Format
Set the dataSource property to the URL of a JSON file or service that returns JSON data.OData
Implement an ODataStore.Web API, PHP, MongoDB
Use one of the following extensions to enable the server to process data according to the protocol DevExtreme UI components use:Then, use the createStore method to configure access to the server on the client as shown below. This method is part of DevExtreme.AspNet.Data.
jQuery
JavaScript$(function() { let serviceUrl = "https://url/to/my/service"; $("#sankeyContainer").dxSankey({ // ... dataSource: DevExpress.data.AspNet.createStore({ key: "ID", loadUrl: serviceUrl + "/GetAction", insertUrl: serviceUrl + "/InsertAction", updateUrl: serviceUrl + "/UpdateAction", deleteUrl: serviceUrl + "/DeleteAction" }) }) });

Any other data source
Implement a CustomStore.
Regardless of the data source on the input, the Sankey always wraps it in the DataSource object. This object allows you to sort, filter, group, and perform other data shaping operations. To get its instance, call the getDataSource() method.
Review the following notes about data binding:
If you wrap the store into the DataSource object explicitly, set the paginate property to false to prevent data from partitioning.
Data field names cannot be equal to
this
and should not contain the following characters:.

export
These features allow a user to export your UI component into a document or print it. When exporting is enabled, the "Exporting/Printing" button appears in the UI component. A click on it invokes a drop-down menu that lists exporting and printing commands. The following formats are supported for exporting into: PNG, PDF, JPEG, SVG and GIF.

loadingIndicator
When the UI component is bound to a remote data source, it can display a loading indicator while data is loading.
To enable the automatic loading indicator, set the enabled property to true.
If you want to change the loading indicator's visibility, use the show property or the showLoadingIndicator() and hideLoadingIndicator() methods.
margin

Angular
<dx-sankey ... (onOptionChanged)="handlePropertyChange($event)"> </dx-sankey>
import { Component } from '@angular/core'; @Component({ selector: 'app-root', templateUrl: './app.component.html', styleUrls: ['./app.component.css'] }) export class AppComponent { // ... handlePropertyChange(e) { if(e.name === "changedProperty") { // handle the property change here } } }
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'; import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'; import { AppComponent } from './app.component'; import { DxSankeyModule } from 'devextreme-angular'; @NgModule({ declarations: [ AppComponent ], imports: [ BrowserModule, DxSankeyModule ], providers: [ ], bootstrap: [AppComponent] }) export class AppModule { }
Vue
<template> <DxSankey ... @option-changed="handlePropertyChange" /> </template> <script> import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css'; import DxSankey from 'devextreme-vue/sankey'; export default { components: { DxSankey }, // ... methods: { handlePropertyChange: function(e) { if(e.name === "changedProperty") { // handle the property change here } } } } </script>
React
import React from 'react'; import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css'; import Sankey from 'devextreme-react/sankey'; const handlePropertyChange = (e) => { if(e.name === "changedProperty") { // handle the property change here } } export default function App() { return ( <Sankey ... onOptionChanged={handlePropertyChange} /> ); }
palette
This property accepts either the name of a predefined palette or an array of colors. The array can include the following colors:
- Hexadecimal colors
- RGB colors
- RGBA colors
- Predefined/cross-browser color names
- Predefined SVG colors
See Also
paletteExtensionMode
Specifies how to extend the palette when it contains less colors than the number of sankey nodes.
The following variants are available:
"blend"
Create a blend of two neighboring colors and insert it between these colors in the palette."alternate"
Repeat the full set of palette colors, alternating their normal, lightened, and darkened shades in that order."extrapolate"
Repeat the full set of palette colors, changing their shade gradually from dark to light.

pathModified
redrawOnResize
Specifies whether to redraw the UI component when the size of the container changes or a mobile device rotates.
rtlEnabled
When this property is set to true, the UI component text flows from right to left, and the layout of elements is reversed. To switch the entire application/site to the right-to-left representation, assign true to the rtlEnabled field of the object passed to the DevExpress.config(config) method.
DevExpress.config({ rtlEnabled: true });
size
You can specify a custom width and height for the component:
Fixed | Relative |
---|---|
Assign values to the size object's height and width properties or specify a container for the component. | Specify a container for the component. The component occupies the container area. |
Assign 0 to the size object's height and width properties to hide the component.
jQuery
$(function() { $("#sankeyContainer").dxSankey({ // ... size: { height: 300, width: 600 } }); });
Angular
<dx-sankey ... > <dxo-size [height]="300" [width]="600"> </dxo-size> </dx-sankey>
import { Component } from '@angular/core'; @Component({ selector: 'app-root', templateUrl: './app.component.html', styleUrls: ['./app.component.css'] }) export class AppComponent { // ... }
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'; import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'; import { AppComponent } from './app.component'; import { DxSankeyModule } from 'devextreme-angular'; @NgModule({ declarations: [ AppComponent ], imports: [ BrowserModule, DxSankeyModule ], providers: [ ], bootstrap: [AppComponent] }) export class AppModule { }
Vue
<template> <DxSankey ... > <DxSize :height="300" :width="600" /> </DxSankey> </template> <script> import DxSankey, { DxSize } from 'devextreme-vue/sankey'; export default { components: { DxSankey, DxSize }, // ... } </script>
React
import React from 'react'; import Sankey, { Size } from 'devextreme-react/sankey'; class App extends React.Component { render() { return ( <Sankey ... > <Size height={300} width={600} /> </Sankey> ); } } export default App;
Alternatively, you can use CSS to style the UI component's container:
jQuery
$(function() { $("#sankey").dxSankey({ // ... }); });
#sankey { width: 85%; height: 70%; }
Angular
<dx-sankey ... id="sankey"> </dx-sankey>
#sankey { width: 85%; height: 70%; }
Vue
<template> <DxSankey ... id="sankey"> </DxSankey> </template> <script> import DxSankey from 'devextreme-vue/sankey'; export default { components: { DxSankey }, // ... } </script> <style> #sankey { width: 85%; height: 70%; } </style>
React
import React from 'react'; import Sankey from 'devextreme-react/sankey'; class App extends React.Component { render() { return ( <Sankey ... id="sankey"> </Sankey> ); } } export default App;
#sankey { width: 85%; height: 70%; }
sortData
The sorting order depends on the node's weight: the heavier the node, the lower it is in the column. All nodes have the same weight initially (equals 1).
For example, without the sortData object, source nodes in the following code would be sorted as declared in the data source (top to bottom): Australia, New Zealand, Japan. Weights in the sortData object specify the following sorting order: New Zealand, Japan, Australia.
jQuery
$(function() { $("#sankeyContainer").dxSankey({ dataSource: [ { source: "Australia", target: "Portugal", weight: 5 }, { source: "New Zealand", target: "Portugal", weight: 1 }, { source: "Japan", target: "Senegal", weight: 3 } ], sortData: { "Australia": 3, "New Zealand": 1, "Japan": 2 } }); });
Angular
import { DxSankeyModule } from "devextreme-angular"; // ... export class AppComponent { data: Array<{ source: string, target: string, weight: number }> = [ { source: "Australia", target: "Portugal", weight: 5 }, { source: "New Zealand", target: "Portugal", weight: 1 }, { source: "Japan", target: "Senegal", weight: 3 } ]; sortData = { "Australia": 3, "New Zealand": 1, "Japan": 2 }; } @NgModule({ imports: [ // ... DxSankeyModule ], // ... })
<dx-sankey [dataSource]="data" [sortData]="sortData"> </dx-sankey>
theme
A theme is a UI component configuration that gives the UI component a distinctive appearance. You can use one of the predefined themes or create a custom one. Changing the property values in the UI component's configuration object overrides the theme's corresponding values.
title
The UI component's title is a short text that usually indicates what is visualized. If you need to specify the title's text only, assign it directly to the title property. Otherwise, set this property to an object with the text and other fields specified.
The title can be accompanied by a subtitle elaborating on the visualized subject using the title.subtitle object.
