DeckTraceGraph
DeckTraceGraph is the main React component for rendering one mounted TraceEngine with the
shared deck.gl trace renderer.
import {DeckTraceGraph} from '@deck.gl-community/trace-layers/react';
Responsibilities
DeckTraceGraph:
- accepts one mounted
TraceEngine - reads prepared layouts and scenes from the engine through
useSyncExternalStore - dispatches selection and collapse interactions back into the engine
- wires deck.gl hover, selection, zoom, minimap, and time-range interactions
- hosts built-in widgets and host-provided widgets
- exposes customization hooks for tooltips, picked objects, graph-global event cards, JSON output, help links, and external OmniBox results
Common props
The source type is DeckTraceGraphProps. The public boundary is intentionally small:
type DeckTraceGraphProps = {
engine: TraceEngine;
className?: string;
reactConfig?: DeckTraceGraphConfig;
};
Sync durable TraceGraph, settings, paths, selected refs, color scheme, and default expanded
process ids into TraceEngineInputs. Persist source IDs only at application boundaries, then
resolve them back to refs before syncing the engine.
Imperative handle
DeckTraceGraphHandle exposes imperative navigation for mounted viewers. Use it for host-owned
search, breadcrumbs, or deep-link restore flows rather than mutating deck state from the outside.
