Custom Nodes

Create custom nodes with unique styling and behavior.

Basic Custom Node

<flow-node-def name="custom.example" label="Custom Node" width="200" height="120" 
               category="Custom" icon="⭐" onExecute="customFunction">
  <node-body>
    <div class="title">⭐ Custom Node</div>
    <div class="body">
      <input type="text" data-key="text:value" placeholder="Enter text">
      <flow-socket type="input" name="input" label="Input"></flow-socket>
      <flow-socket type="output" name="output" label="Output"></flow-socket>
    </div>
  </node-body>
</flow-node-def>

Custom Styling

flow-node[type="custom.example"] {
  --node-bg: linear-gradient(135deg, #667eea 0%, #764ba2 100%);
  --node-border: #5a67d8;
  --node-text: #ffffff;
}

flow-node[type="custom.example"] .node-body {
  border-radius: 12px;
  box-shadow: 0 4px 12px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);
}

Custom Shapes

<flow-node-def name="custom.diamond" label="Diamond" width="100" height="100">
  <node-body>
    <div class="title">💎 Diamond</div>
    <div class="body">
      <flow-socket type="input" name="in" label="In"></flow-socket>
      <flow-socket type="output" name="out" label="Out"></flow-socket>
    </div>
  </node-body>
</flow-node-def>
flow-node[type="custom.diamond"] .node-body {
  clip-path: polygon(50% 0%, 100% 50%, 50% 100%, 0% 50%);
  background: #ff6b6b;
}

Execution Function

function customFunction(context) {
  const input = context.getInput('input');
  const text = context.getData('text');

  const result = {
    input: input,
    text: text,
    timestamp: Date.now()
  };

  context.setOutput('output', result);
}
