<BaseEdge />

The BaseEdge component gets used internally for all the edges. It can be used inside a custom edge and handles the invisible helper edge and the edge label for you.

Usage​

import { BaseEdge } from 'reactflow';

function CustomEdge(props: EdgeProps) {
  const { sourceX, sourceY, targetX, targetY } = props;

  const [edgePath] = getStraightPath({
    sourceX,
    sourceY,
    targetX,
    targetY,
  });

  return <BaseEdge path={edgePath} {...props} />;
}
