Create Konvajs Shapes and Connections creating dynamically based on button click events

Question

I would like to create Rectangle Shapes and Connections using the Vue-Konva/Konvajs within my application. I do not want to create load the Static values rather I would like to create the Shapes when the user clicks on the Add Node button and create Connectors when the user clicks on the Add Connector button and build the connections between Shapes.

I looked into a few things and was able to do it using the mouse events but was unable to convert it to button clicks.

Following is the current code I have: CodeSandbox

Can someone please guide me on how to create shapes and connectors on click of the button events? Any suggestion or guidance is much appreciated.

I am looking something like this:
