useNodesInitialized()

useNodesInitialized

Source on GitHub (opens in a new tab)

This hook tells you whether all the nodes in a flow have been measured and given a width and height. When you add a node to the flow, this hook will return false and then true again once the node has been measured.

import { useReactFlow, useNodesInitialized } from 'reactflow';
import { useEffect, useState } from 'react';
 
const options = {
  includeHiddenNodes: false,
};
 
export default function useLayout() {
  const { getNodes } = useReactFlow();
  const nodesInitialized = useNodesInitialized(options);
  const [layoutedNodes, setLayoutedNodes] = useState(getNodes());
 
  useEffect(() => {
    if (nodesInitialized) {
      setLayoutedNodes(yourLayoutingFunction(getNodes()));
    }
  }, [nodesInitialized]);
 
  return layoutedNodes;
}
