draw.io Interception Docker

This repo is for a Docker container which creates and runs draw.io with some modifications for interception of some commands.

Setup, Install, and Running

The only requirement is Docker. All configuration is handled through the main.js and modals.js files.

Install Docker (https://www.docker.com/)
Download this repo (https://github.com/MarsCapone/drawio-docker/archive/master.zip)
Unzip it and enter the directory.

Build the container.

docker --no-cache --rm -it casperc/drawio --network=host .

Run the container, making sure to mount the main.js, and modals.js files. When running the container, you must decide which port it is going to run on.

docker run --rm --name="draw" \
   -p <host-port>:8080 \
   -p 8443:8443 \
   -v /full/path/to/main.js>:/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/draw/js/interception/main.js \
   -v /full/path/to/modals.js>:/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/draw/js/interception/modals.js \
   -it casperc/drawio

The build script is included in build.sh. The run script is included in run.sh.

Configuration

There are two sections that need configuration, the onpage modal display, and the edge text configuration.

Modal Display

As there is no longer an file to edit, modals that were going to be included in HTML, now need to be included as string elements of the array Modals in modals.js. Some examples are provided in the file.

In order to utilise the modal control, the data action of any given node should be:

data:action/customjs,{"fun": "<function_name>", "args": <list_of_args> }

<function_name> can be any function that is a member of the Interception object. <list_of_args> should be an array of arguments that will be provided to the function.

Default Action

The default action is to display a modal from the Modals array by referencing the id of the modal.

data:action/customjs,{"fun": "onpage","args":["include"]}

This example runs the Interception.onpage function, which displays the modal with the id include.

Edge Text Interception

In order to configure edge texts in ex mode, you must modify the main.js file. This exposes the Interception object.

The function Interception.edge(e, b) is run for each visible edge in ex-mode.

An example is provided in main.js.

In order to utilise this function, edges should have text in the form:
