Implement client-side "paging" on networks. #39

Closed josiah-wolf-oberholtzer closed 9 years ago

API queries should return all nodes and edges up to just beyond node/link limits. Each node and link should be associated with one or more "pages". For example, the center node should appear in all pages.

On the client-side, the entire network will be received, but only one " page" shown at a time. This will ensure that a) the visualization is always responsive and b) all 1-degree relations can be seen from the same center.

This will make visualizing non-alias, non-band relations much more palatable.

Done.
