links

Description​

Optional. This is an array of objects that holds the links data.

Usage​

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

Parameters​

Each link includes the following data fields:

  • id - (required) the unique ID for the link
  • masterId - (required) the card ID representing the dominant role in the link (e.g. "Is required for")
  • slaveId - (required) the card ID representing the passive role in the link (e.g. "Depends on")
  • relation - (required) the type of link. The available types are:
    • "relatesTo" - indicates a dependency where the current task is connected to another one
    • "requiredFor" - shows a dependency where one task needs the other to be completed first
    • "duplicate" - marks a dependency between duplicated tasks
    • "parent" - sets a dependency between a parent (master) task and its child (slave) task
info

To dynamically load new links data, you can use the parse() method!

Example​

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

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