links

Description

Optional. An array of objects containing the links data

Usage

links?: [
{
id: string | number,
masterId: string | number,
slaveId: string | number,
relation: "relatesTo" | "requiredFor" | "duplicate" | "parent",
},
{...} // other links data
];

Parameters

For each link you can specify the following parameters (data):

  • id - (required) the ID of the link
  • masterId - (required) the card ID which expresses a dominant role in the link (e.g. “Is required for”)
  • slaveId - (required) the card ID which expresses a passive role in the link (e.g. “Depends on”)
  • relation - (required) the type of link. Here you can specify the following types:
    • "relatesTo" - defines dependency between tasks where the current task is bound to other one
    • "requiredFor" - defines dependency between tasks where one task requires the other one to be done
    • "duplicate" - defines dependency between duplicated tasks
    • "parent" - defines dependency between parent (master) and child (slave) tasks
info

If you want to load new data for links dynamically, you can use the parse() method!

Example

const links = [
{
id: 1,
masterId: 2,
slaveId: 5,
relation: "relatesTo",
},
{...}
];

new kanban.Kanban("#root", {
columns,
cards,
links
// other parameters
});

Change log: The property was added in v1.4
