NODE_REGISTRY

How to store nodes in the registry?

The nodes need:

ID: string/string/string

I could imagine something like jimfx/nature/branch

INPUTS:

We need a way to define how the UI should render the input ui. Could be something like:

{
  "inputs": [
    “a”: {
      “type”: “select”,
      “options”: [
        “curly”,
        “straight”
      ]
    },
    "b": {
      "type":"float",
      "value": 0.5,
      "max": 10.0,
      "min": 0
    },
    "res":{
      "type": "integer",
      "value": 5,
      "setting":"leaves/resolution"
    }
  ]
}

OUTPUTS

The nodes output, could look something like this:

{
  "outputs": ["stem","float"]
}

How to store serialized nodes

{
  "id":"jimfx/nature/branch",
  "inputs": [0,8.4],
  "position": [0.6, 10]
  "meta": {
    "title":"Branch Node" 
  }
}
