ConnectionDB.searchForClosest() method
Find the closest compatible connection to this connection.
Signature:
searchForClosest(conn: RenderedConnection, maxRadius: number, dxy: Coordinate): {
connection: RenderedConnection | null;
radius: number;
};
Parameters
| Parameter |
Type |
Description |
| conn |
RenderedConnection |
The connection searching for a compatible mate. |
| maxRadius |
number |
The maximum radius to another connection. |
| dxy |
Coordinate |
Offset between this connection's location in the database and the current location (as a result of dragging). |
Returns:
{ connection: RenderedConnection | null; radius: number; }
Contains two properties: 'connection' which is either another connection or null, and 'radius' which is the distance.
