Timeline

+ +

Overview

+

+ The Timeline is an interactive visualization chart to visualize data in time. + The data items can take place on a single date, or have a start and end date (a range). + You can freely move and zoom in the timeline by dragging and scrolling in the + Timeline. Items can be created, edited, and deleted in the timeline. + The time scale on the axis is adjusted automatically, and supports scales ranging + from milliseconds to years. +

+

+ Timeline uses regular HTML DOM to render the timeline and items put on the + timeline. This allows for flexible customization using css styling. +

+ +

Loading

+

+ Install or download the vis.js library. + in a subfolder of your project. Include the libraries script and css files in the + head of your html code: +

+ +
+<script src="vis/dist/vis.js"></script>
+<link href="vis/dist/vis.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
+
+ + The constructor of the Timeline is vis.Timeline + 
var timeline = new vis.Timeline(container, items, options);
+ or when using groups: + 
var timeline = new vis.Timeline(container, items, groups, options);
+ + The constructor accepts four parameters: + + +

Data Format

+ +

+ The timeline can be provided with two types of data: +

+ + +

Items

+

+ The Timeline uses regular Arrays and Objects as data format. + Data items can contain the properties start, + end (optional), content, + group (optional), className (optional), + editable (optional), and style (optional). +

+ +

+ A table is constructed as: +

+ +
+var items = [
+  {
+    start: new Date(2010, 7, 15),
+    end: new Date(2010, 8, 2),  // end is optional
+    content: 'Trajectory A'
+    // Optional: fields 'id', 'type', 'group', 'className', 'style'
+  }
+  // more items...
+]);
+
+ +

+ The item properties are defined as: +

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
NameTypeRequiredDescription
classNameStringnoThis field is optional. A className can be used to give items + an individual css style. For example, when an item has className + 'red', one can define a css style like: + 
+.vis-item.red {
+  color: white;
+  background-color: red;
+  border-color: darkred;
+}
+ More details on how to style items can be found in the section + Styles. +
contentStringyesThe contents of the item. This can be plain text or html code.
endDate or number or string or MomentnoThe end date of the item. The end date is optional, and can be left null. + If end date is provided, the item is displayed as a range. + If not, the item is displayed as a box.
groupany typenoThis field is optional. When the group column is provided, + all items with the same group are placed on one line. + A vertical axis is displayed showing the groups. + Grouping items can be useful for example when showing availability of multiple + people, rooms, or other resources next to each other.
+
idString or NumbernoAn id for the item. Using an id is not required but highly + recommended. An id is needed when dynamically adding, updating, + and removing items in a DataSet.
startDate or number or string or MomentyesThe start date of the item, for example new Date(2010,9,23).
styleStringno + A css text string to apply custom styling for an individual item, for + example "color: red; background-color: pink;". +
subgroupString or NumbernoneThe id of a subgroup. + Groups all items within a group per subgroup, and positions them on the + same height instead of staking them on top of each other. can be ordered + by specifying the option subgroupOrder of a group. +
titleStringnoneAdd a title for the item, displayed when holding the mouse on the item. + The title can only contain plain text. +
typeStringnoThe type of the item. Can be 'box' (default), 'point', 'range', or 'background'. + Types 'box' and 'point' need a start date, the types 'range' and 'background' needs both a start and end date. +
editableBooleannoOverride the editable option of the timeline for a specific item.
+ +

Groups

+

+ Like the items, groups are regular JavaScript Arrays and Objects. + Using groups, items can be grouped together. + Items are filtered per group, and displayed as + + Group items can contain the properties id, + content, and className (optional). +

+

+ Groups can be applied to a timeline using the method setGroups or supplied in the constructor. + A table with groups can be created like: +

+ +
+var groups = [
+  {
+    id: 1,
+    content: 'Group 1'
+    // Optional: a field 'className', 'style'
+  }
+  // more groups...
+]);
+
+ + +

+ Groups can have the following properties: +

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
NameTypeRequiredDescription
classNameStringnoThis field is optional. A className can be used to give groups + an individual css style. For example, when a group has className + 'red', one can define a css style + + .red { + color: red; + } + . + More details on how to style groups can be found in the section + Styles. +
contentStringyesThe contents of the group. This can be plain text or html code.
idString or NumberyesAn id for the group. The group will display all items having a + property group which matches the id + of the group.
styleStringno + A css text string to apply custom styling for an individual group label, for + example "color: red; background-color: pink;". +
subgroupOrderString or FunctionnoneOrder the subgroups by a field name or custom sort function. + By default, groups are ordered by first-come, first-show. +
titleStringnoneA title for the group, displayed when holding the mouse on the groups label. + The title can only contain plain text. +
+ + + +

Configuration Options

+ +

+ Options can be used to customize the timeline. + Options are defined as a JSON object. All options are optional. +

+ +
+var options = {
+  width: '100%',
+  height: '30px',
+  margin: {
+    item: 20
+  }
+};
+
+ +

+ The following options are available. +

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
NameTypeDefaultDescription
alignString'center'Alignment of items with type 'box', 'range', and 'background'. Available values are 'auto' (default), 'center', 'left', or 'right'. For 'box' items, the 'auto' alignment is 'center'. For 'range' items, the auto alignment is dynamic: positioned left and shifted such that the contents is always visible on screen.
autoResizebooleantrueIf true, the Timeline will automatically detect when its container is resized, and redraw itself accordingly. If false, the Timeline can be forced to repaint after its container has been resized using the function redraw().
clickToUsebooleanfalseWhen a Timeline is configured to be clickToUse, it will react to mouse and touch events only when active. + When active, a blue shadow border is displayed around the Timeline. The Timeline is set active by clicking on it, and is changed to inactive again by clicking outside the Timeline or by pressing the ESC key.
configureboolean or functionfalseWhen true, a configurator is loaded where all configuration options of the Timeline can be changed live. + + The displayed options can be filtered by providing a filter function. This function is invoked with two arguments: the current option and the path (an Array) of the option within the options object. The option will be displayed when the filter function returns true. For example to only display format options: + 
+function (option, path) {
+  return option === 'format' || path.indexOf('format') !== -1;
+}
+
dataAttributesstring[] or 'all'falseAn array of fields optionally defined on the timeline items that will be appended as data- attributes to the DOM element of the items.
+ If value is 'all' then each field defined on the timeline item will become a data- attribute.
editableboolean or ObjectfalseIf true, the items in the timeline can be manipulated. Only applicable when option selectable is true. See also the callbacks onAdd, onUpdate, onMove, and onRemove. When editable is an object, one can enable or disable individual manipulation actions. + See section Editing Items for a detailed explanation. +
endDate or Number or String or MomentnoneThe initial end date for the axis of the timeline. + If not provided, the latest date present in the items set is taken as + end date.
formatObjectnone + Apply custom date formatting of the labels on the time axis. The default value of format is: +

+    second:     'D MMMM HH:mm',
+    minute:     'ddd D MMMM',
+    hour:       'ddd D MMMM',
+    weekday:    'MMMM YYYY',
+    day:        'MMMM YYYY',
+    month:      'YYYY',
+    year:       ''
+  }
+}
+ For values which not provided in the customized options.format, the default values will be used. + All available formatting syntax is described in the docs of moment.js. +
groupOrderString or FunctionnoneOrder the groups by a field name or custom sort function. + By default, groups are not ordered. +
heightnumber or StringnoneThe height of the timeline in pixels or as a percentage. + When height is undefined or null, the height of the timeline is automatically + adjusted to fit the contents. + It is possible to set a maximum height using option maxHeight + to prevent the timeline from getting too high in case of automatically + calculated height. +
hiddenDatesObjectnoneThis option allows you to hide specific timespans from the time axis. The dates can be supplied as an object: + {start: '2014-03-21 00:00:00', end: '2014-03-28 00:00:00', [repeat:'daily']} or as an Array of these objects. The repeat argument is optional. + The possible values are (case-sensitive): daily, weekly, monthly, yearly. To hide a weekend, pick any Saturday as start and the following Monday as end + and set repeat to weekly. +

orderfunctionnone +

Provide a custom sort function to order the items. The order of the + items is determining the way they are stacked. The function + order is called with two arguments containing the data of two items to be + compared. +

+

WARNING: Use with caution. Custom ordering is not suitable for large amounts of items. On load, the Timeline will render all items once to determine their width and height. Keep the number of items in this configuration limited to a maximum of a few hundred items.

+
orientationString or Object'bottom'Orientation of the timelines axis and items. When orientation is a string, the value is applied to both items and axis. Can be 'top', 'bottom' (default), 'both', or 'none'.
selectablebooleantrueIf true, the items on the timeline can be selected. Multiple items can be selected by long pressing them, or by using ctrl+click or shift+click. The event select is fired each time the selection has changed (see section Events).
showCurrentTimebooleantrueShow a vertical bar at the current time.
showMajorLabelsbooleantrueBy default, the timeline shows both minor and major date labels on the + time axis. + For example the minor labels show minutes and the major labels show hours. + When showMajorLabels is false, no major labels + are shown.
showMinorLabelsbooleantrueBy default, the timeline shows both minor and major date labels on the + time axis. + For example the minor labels show minutes and the major labels show hours. + When showMinorLabels is false, no minor labels + are shown. When both showMajorLabels and + showMinorLabels are false, no horizontal axis will be + visible.
stackbooleantrueIf true (default), items will be stacked on top of each other such that they do not overlap.
snapfunction or nullfunctionWhen moving items on the Timeline, they will be snapped to nice dates like full hours or days, depending on the current scale. The snap function can be replaced with a custom function, or can be set to null to disable snapping. The signature of the snap function is: + 
function snap(date: Date, scale: string, step: number) : Date or number
+ The parameter scale can be can be 'millisecond', 'second', 'minute', 'hour', 'weekday, 'day, 'month, or 'year'. The parameter step is a number like 1, 2, 4, 5. +
startDate or Number or String or MomentnoneThe initial start date for the axis of the timeline. + If not provided, the earliest date present in the events is taken as start date.
templatefunctionnoneA template function used to generate the contents of the items. The function is called by the Timeline with an items data as argument, and must return HTML code as result. When the option template is specified, the items do not need to have a field content. See section Templates for a detailed explanation.
timeAxisObjectObjectSpecify a fixed scale and step size for the time axis.
typeStringnoneSpecifies the default type for the timeline items. Choose from 'box', 'point', 'range', and 'background'. Note that individual items can override this default type. If undefined, the Timeline will auto detect the type from the items data: if a start and end date is available, a 'range' will be created, and else, a 'box' is created. Items of type 'background' are not editable. +
widthString or Number'100%'The width of the timeline in pixels or as a percentage.
zoomablebooleantrue + Specifies whether the Timeline can be zoomed by pinching or scrolling in the window. + Only applicable when option moveable is set true. +
zoomMaxnumber315360000000000Set a maximum zoom interval for the visible range in milliseconds. + It will not be possible to zoom out further than this maximum. + Default value equals about 10000 years. +

Events

+

+ Timeline fires events when changing the visible window by dragging, when + selecting items, and when dragging the custom time bar. +

+ +

+ Here an example on how to listen for a select event. +

+ +
+timeline.on('select', function (properties) {
+  alert('selected items: ' + properties.nodes);
+});
+
+ +

+ A listener can be removed via the function off: +

+ +
+function onSelect (properties) {
+  alert('selected items: ' + properties.nodes);
+}
+
+// add event listener
+timeline.on('select', onSelect);
+
+// do stuff...
+
+// remove event listener
+timeline.off('select', onSelect);
+
+ + +

+ The following events are available. +

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
NamePropertiesDescription
click + Passes a properties object as returned by the method Timeline.getEventProperties(event). + Fired when clicked inside the Timeline. +
contextmenu + Passes a properties object as returned by the method Timeline.getEventProperties(event). + Fired when right-clicked inside the Timeline. Note that in order to prevent the context menu from showing up, default behavior of the event must be stopped: +
timeline.on('contextmenu', function (props) {
+  alert('Right click!');

Editing Items

+

+ When the Timeline is configured to be editable (both options selectable and editable are true), the user can: +

+ + +

Option editable accepts a boolean or an object. When editable is a boolean, all manipulation actions will be either enabled or disabled. When editable is an object, one can enable individual manipulation actions:

+ +
// enable or disable all manipulation actions
+var options = {
+  editable: true       // true or false
+};
+
+// enable or disable individual manipulation actions
+var options = {
+  editable: {
+    add: true,         // add new items by double tapping
+    updateTime: true,  // drag items horizontally
+    updateGroup: true, // drag items from one group to another
+    remove: true       // delete an item by tapping the delete button top right
+  }
+};
+ +

+ Editing can be enabled/disabled for specific items. Setting the property editable to true or false on a data item will override the timeline option. +

+ +
+var items = new vis.DataSet([
+  {id: 1, content: 'read-only item', start: '2013-04-20', editable: false},
+  {id: 2, content: 'editable item', start: '2013-04-14'}
+]);
+
+ +

+ One can specify callback functions to validate changes made by the user. There are a number of callback functions for this purpose: +

+ + + +

+ Each of the callbacks is invoked with two arguments: +

+ + +

+ Example code: +

+ +
var options = {
+  onUpdate: function (item, callback) {
+    item.content = prompt('Edit items text:', item.content);
+    if (item.content != null) {
+      callback(item); // send back adjusted item
+    }
+    else {
+      callback(null); // cancel updating the item
+    }
+  }
+};
+
+ + A full example is available here: 08_manipulation_callbacks.html. + + +

Templates

+ +

+ Timeline supports templates to format item contents. Any template engine (such as handlebars or mustache) can be used, and one can also manually build HTML. In the options, one can provide a template handler. This handler is a function accepting an items data as argument, and outputs formatted HTML: +

+ +
var options = {
+  template: function (item) {
+    var html = ... // generate HTML markup for this item
+    return html;
+  }
+};
+
+ +

Create HTML manually

+ + The HTML for an item can be created manually: + +
var options = {
+  template: function (item) {
+    return '<h1>' + item.header + '</h1><p>' + item.description + '</p>';
+  }
+};
+
+ +

Using a template engine

+ + Using handlebars, one can write the template in HTML: + +
+<script id="item-template" type="text/x-handlebars-template">
+  <h1>{{header}}</h1>
+  <p>{{description}}</p>
+</script>
+
+ + Compile the template: + +
+var source = document.getElementById('item-template').innerHTML;
+var template = Handlebars.compile(source);
+
+ + And then specify the template in the Timeline options + +
var options = {
+  template: template
+};
+
+ +

Multiple templates

+ + In order to support multiple templates, the template handler can be extended to switch between different templates, depending on a specific item property: + +
+var templates = {
+  template1: Handlebars.compile(...),
+  template2: Handlebars.compile(...),
+  template2: Handlebars.compile(...),
+  ...
+};
+
+var options = {
+  template: function (item) {
+    var template = templates[item.template];  // choose the right template
+    return template(item);                    // execute the template
+  }
+};
+
+ + Now the items can be extended with a property template, specifying which template to use for the item. + + +

Localization

+

+ Timeline can be localized. For localization, Timeline depends largely on the localization of moment.js. Locales are not included in vis.js by default. To enable localization, moment.js must be loaded with locales. Moment.js offers a bundle named "moment-with-locales.min.js" for this and there are various alternative ways to load locales. +

+ +

+ To set a locale for the Timeline, specify the option locale: +

+ +
var options = {
+  locale: 'nl'
+};
+
+ +

Create a new locale

+ + To load a locale into the Timeline not supported by default, one can add a new locale to the option locales: + +
var options = {
+  locales: {
+    // create a new locale (text strings should be replaced with localized strings)
+    mylocale: {
+      current: 'current',
+      time: 'time',
+    }
+  },
+
+  // use the new locale
+  locale: 'mylocale'
+};
+
+ +

Available locales

+ +

+ Timeline comes with support for the following locales: +

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
LanguageCode
English + en
+ en_EN
+ en_US +
Dutch + nl
+ nl_NL
+ nl_BE +
+ + +

Styles

+

+ All parts of the Timeline have a class name and a default css style. + The styles can be overwritten, which enables full customization of the layout + of the Timeline. +

+ +

For example, to change the border and background color of all items, include the + following code inside the head of your html code or in a separate stylesheet.

+
<style>
+  .vis-item {
+    border-color: orange;
+    background-color: yellow;
+  }
+</style>
+
+ +

Grid Backgrounds

+

+ The background grid of the time axis can be styled, for example to highlight + weekends or to create grids with an alternating white/lightgray background. +

+

+ Depending on the zoom level, the grids get certain css classes attached. + The following classes are available: +

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
