Force graph visualization #11

Open Dev1an opened 8 years ago

Visualize realtime messages in a force graph. https://github.com/d3/d3/wiki/Force-Layout

maccradar commented 8 years ago

I would immediately add a useful feature: display bottlenecks. the force graph on its own is neat but does not do anything useful, except for displaying the connections (which in zyre is a complete mesh).

If you add a feature which highlights connections or nodes that process a lot of messages, we could quickly identify potential bottlenecks. See also #20

Can I already link it to a collection which grabs zyre messages out of the database?

Dev1an commented 8 years ago

Yes the forcegraph is coupled to a Modules and Events collection, so if you run the zyre mediator alongside the meteor app you can see the zyre messages. I am now integrating this project in the Visualization project. When that is done, I will add an indicator for the sent and received message rate to identify bottlenecks.

In order to integrate this, I was waiting on the solution for #22.
