Gantt diagrams

A Gantt chart is a type of bar chart, first developed by Karol Adamiecki in 1896, and independently by Henry Gantt in the 1910s, that illustrates a project schedule. Gantt charts illustrate the start and finish dates of the terminal elements and summary elements of a project.

Mermaid can render Gantt diagrams.

Comments

Comments can be entered within a gantt chart, which will be ignored by the parser. Comments need to be on their own line, and must be prefaced with %% (double percent signs). Any text after the start of the comment to the next newline will be treated as a comment, including any diagram syntax

Styling

Styling of the a gantt diagram is done by defining a number of css classes. During rendering these classes are extracted from the

Classes used

Class Description
actor Style for the actor box at the top of the diagram.
text.actor Styles for text in the actor box at the top of the diagram.
actor-line The vertical line for an actor.
messageLine0 Styles for the solid message line.
messageLine1 Styles for the dotted message line.
messageText Defines styles for the text on the message arrows.
labelBox Defines styles label to left in a loop.
labelText Styles for the text in label for loops.
loopText Styles for the text in the loop box.
loopLine Defines styles for the lines in the loop box.
note Styles for the note box.
noteText Styles for the text on in the note boxes.

Sample stylesheet

.grid .tick {
    stroke: lightgrey;
    opacity: 0.3;
    shape-rendering: crispEdges;
}
.grid path {
    stroke-width: 0;
}

#tag {
    color: white;
    background: #FA283D;
    width: 150px;
    position: absolute;
    display: none;
    padding:3px 6px;
    margin-left: -80px;
    font-size: 11px;
}

#tag:before {
    border: solid transparent;
    content: ' ';
    height: 0;
    left: 50%;
    margin-left: -5px;
    position: absolute;
    width: 0;
    border-width: 10px;
    border-bottom-color: #FA283D;
    top: -20px;
}
.taskText {
    fill:white;
    text-anchor:middle;
}
.taskTextOutsideRight {
    fill:black;
    text-anchor:start;
}
.taskTextOutsideLeft {
    fill:black;
    text-anchor:end;
}

Configuration

Is it possible to adjust the margins for rendering the gantt diagram.

This is done by defining the ganttConfig part of the configuration object. How to use the CLI is described in the mermaidCLI page.

mermaid.ganttConfig can be set to a JSON string with config parameters or the corresponding object.

mermaid.ganttConfig = {
    titleTopMargin:25,
    barHeight:20,
    barGap:4,
    topPadding:75,
    sidePadding:75
}

Possible configration params:

Param Descriotion Default value
mirrorActor Turns on/off the rendering of actors below the diagram as well as above it false
bottomMarginAdj Adjusts how far down the graph ended. Wide borders styles with css could generate unwantewd clipping which is why this config param exists. 1
