How to add labels to KineticJS groups?

To add labels to KineticJS groups, you can follow these steps:

1. Create a new Kinetic.Label object to hold your label text.
2. Add a Kinetic.Text object as a child of the label object. Set the text content, font size, font family, color, and any other styling properties for the text.
3. Set the position of the label object relative to the group by adjusting its x and y coordinates.
4. Add the label object as a child of the group by using the add() method.
5. Finally, add the group to the Kinetic.Stage to display it on the canvas.

Here is an example of how you can add a label to a KineticJS group:

// Create a new Kinetic Group
var group = new Kinetic.Group();

// Create a label with text
var label = new Kinetic.Label({
  x: 10,
  y: 10,
});
var labelText = new Kinetic.Text({
  text: 'My Label',
  fontSize: 18,
  fontFamily: 'Arial',
  fill: 'black',
});
label.add(labelText);

// Add the label to the group
group.add(label);

// Add the group to the stage
stage.add(group);

This code snippet creates a group, adds a label with the text "My Label", and then adds the label to the group. Finally, the group is added to the stage to display the label on the canvas.
