tsParticles Links Preset
tsParticles preset for creating a particles web created by link lines between them.
Sample
How to use it
CDN / Vanilla JS / jQuery
The first step is installing tsParticles following the instructions for vanilla javascript in the main project here
Once installed you need one more script to be included in your page (or you can download that from jsDelivr:
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/tsparticles-engine@2/tsparticles.engine.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/tsparticles-interaction-particles-links@2/tsparticles.interaction.particles.links.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/tsparticles-move-base@2/tsparticles.move.base.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/tsparticles-shape-circle@2/tsparticles.shape.circle.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/tsparticles-updater-color@2/tsparticles.updater.color.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/tsparticles-updater-opacity@2/tsparticles.updater.opacity.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/tsparticles-updater-out-modes@2/tsparticles.updater.out-modes.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/tsparticles-updater-size@2/tsparticles.updater.size.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/tsparticles-preset-links@2/tsparticles.preset.links.min.js"></script>This script MUST be placed after the tsParticles one.
Bundle
A bundled script can also be used, this will include every needed plugin needed by the preset.
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/tsparticles-preset-links@2/tsparticles.preset.links.min.js"></script>Usage
Once the scripts are loaded you can set up tsParticles like this:
(async () => {
await loadLinksPreset(tsParticles); // this is required only if you are not using the bundle script
await tsParticles.load("tsparticles", {
preset: "links",
});
})();Customization
Important ⚠️
You can override all the options defining the properties like in any standard tsParticles installation.
tsParticles.load("tsparticles", {
particles: {
shape: {
type: "square", // starting from v2, this require the square shape script
},
},
preset: "links",
});Like in the sample above, the circles will be replaced by squares.
React.js / Preact / Inferno
The syntax for React.js, Preact and Inferno is the same.
This sample uses the class component syntax, but you can use hooks as well (if the library supports it).
`typescript jsx
import Particles from "react-particles";
import type { Engine } from "tsparticles-engine";
import { loadLinksPreset } from "tsparticles-preset-links";
export class ParticlesContainer extends React.PureComponent<IProps> { // this customizes the component tsParticles installation async customInit(engine: Engine): Promise<void> { // this adds the preset to tsParticles, you can safely use the await loadLinksPreset(engine); }
render() { const options = { preset: "links", };
return <Particles options={options} init={this.customInit} />;} }
### Vue (2.x and 3.x)
_The syntax for `Vue.js 2.x` and `3.x` is the same_
```vue
<Particles id="tsparticles" :particlesInit="particlesInit" :options="particlesOptions" />const particlesOptions = {
preset: "links",
};
async function particlesInit(engine: Engine): Promise<void> {
await loadLinksPreset(engine);
}Angular
<ng-particles [id]="id" [options]="particlesOptions" [particlesInit]="particlesInit"></ng-particles>const particlesOptions = {
preset: "links",
};
async function particlesInit(engine: Engine): Promise<void> {
await loadLinksPreset(engine);
}Svelte
<Particles
id="tsparticles"
options={particlesOptions}
particlesInit={particlesInit}
/>let particlesOptions = {
preset: "links",
};
let particlesInit = async (engine) => {
await loadLinksPreset(engine);
