PyJSONCanvas is a Python library for working with JSON Canvas (previously known as Obsidian Canvas) files. It provides a simple and intuitive API for creating, editing, and manipulating canvas objects, nodes, and edges.

Features

• Create, load, and save canvas files in JSON format
• Add, remove, and modify nodes (text, file, link, group)
• Add, remove, and modify edges with various styles and colors
• Validate canvas, nodes, and edges for integrity
• Get connections and adjacent nodes for a given node
• Extensive error handling and helpful exception messages

Installation

You can install PyJSONCanvas using pip:

pip install PyJSONCanvas

Usage

Here's a basic example of how to use PyJSONCanvas:

from pyjsoncanvas import (
    Canvas,
    TextNode,
    FileNode,
    LinkNode,
    GroupNode,
    GroupNodeBackgroundStyle,
    Edge,
    Color,
)

# Create a new canvas
canvas = Canvas(nodes=[], edges=[])

# Add some nodes
text_node = TextNode(x=100, y=100, width=200, height=100, text="Hello, world!")
canvas.add_node(text_node)

file_node = FileNode(x=300, y=100, width=100, height=100, file="/path/to/file.png")
canvas.add_node(file_node)

# Add an edge
edge = Edge(
    fromNode=text_node.id,
    fromSide="bottom",
    toNode=file_node.id,
    toSide="top",
    color=Color("#FF0000"),
    label="Edge 1",
)
canvas.add_edge(edge)

# Save the canvas as JSON
json_str = canvas.to_json()

# Load the canvas from JSON
loaded_canvas = Canvas.from_json(json_str)

# Get a node
node = loaded_canvas.get_node(text_node.id)

# Get connections for a node
connections = loaded_canvas.get_connections(text_node.id)
