nodeTemplateMap in typescript

GoJS
1

I have an issue with adding a nodeTemplateMap in typescript:

the code is :
let nodeTemplateMap: any = new go.Map(‘string’, go.Node);
nodeTemplateMap.add(‘serviceDevice’, this.nodeTemplate());
nodeTemplateMap.add(’’, this.nodeTemplate());
myDiagram.nodeTemplateMap = nodeTemplateMap;

the error I get is :
typeerror:b.de is not a function.

any ideas?

I would not declare : any on your variable.

What is the value returned by this.nodeTemplate()

3

if I don’t add :any, I get Type ‘Map<{},{}>’ is not assignable to type 'Map<string, Part>

this is another code that I copied from javascript where it was working and in TS I get the error

as for the template - it’s just a panel with a text block inside

4

I suspect that the problem is that the value of this.nodeTemplate() is a plain Panel but should be a Node.

5

spot on!!!

so I just add a node around it?

That depends on what you want the node to look like. Maybe it’s as simple as replacing go.Panel with go.Node.

great to see a product with such a good service.
