sections: - title: Line chart examples level: 3 items: - type: live-example data: title: Simple line chart level: 4 id: simple-line-chart classes: ct-golden-section intro: An example of a simple line chart with three series. You can edit this example in realtime. - type: live-example data: title: Holes in data level: 4 id: example-line-data-holes classes: ct-golden-section intro: > Chartist does not freak out if you have holes in your data. Instead it will render the lines in segments and handles these holes gracefully. This also allows you to introduce a line at a later point or to terminate the series before others. - type: live-example data: title: Filled holes in data level: 4 id: example-line-data-fill-holes classes: ct-golden-section intro: > Sometimes you don't want your data looking so fragmented, even when it really is. That's why you can also configure Chartist to smooth over holes in your data. - type: live-example data: title: Only whole numbers level: 4 id: example-line-only-integer classes: ct-golden-section intro: > You're dealing with series that contain only whole numbers? It looks weird that Chartist is creating a scale that contains fractions even if your data does not? No problem! Tell the Chartist guy to only use integers and he'll do the math! - type: live-example data: title: Line scatter diagram with responsive settings level: 4 id: line-scatter-random classes: ct-golden-section intro: > This advanced example uses a line chart to draw a scatter diagram. The data object is created with a functional style random mechanism. There is a mobile first responsive configuration using the responsive options to show less labels on small screens. - type: live-example data: title: Line chart with area level: 4 id: example-line-area classes: ct-golden-section intro: > This chart uses the showArea option to draw line, dots but also an area shape. Use the low option to specify a fixed lower bound that will make the area expand. You can also use the areaBase property to specify a data value that will be used to determine the area shape base position (this is 0 by default). - type: live-example data: title: Bi-polar Line chart with area only level: 4 id: example-bipolar-line-area classes: ct-golden-section intro: > You can also only draw the area shapes of the line chart. Area shapes will always be constructed around their areaBase (that can be configured in the options) which also allows you to draw nice bi-polar areas. - type: live-example data: title: Using events to replace graphics level: 4 id: example-line-modify-drawing classes: ct-golden-section intro: > Chartist has fixed graphical representations that are chosen because of their flexibility and to provide a high level of separation of the concerns. However, sometimes you probably would like to use different shapes or even images for your charts. One way to achieve this is by using the draw events and replace or add custom SVG shapes. - type: live-example data: title: Advanced SMIL Animations level: 4 id: example-line-svg-animation classes: ct-golden-section intro: > Chartist provides a simple API to animate the elements on the Chart using SMIL. Usually you can achieve most animation with CSS3 animations but in some cases you'd like to animate SVG properties that are not available in CSS. - type: live-example data: title: SVG Path animation level: 4 id: example-line-path-animation classes: ct-golden-section intro: > Path animation is made easy with the SVG Path API. The API allows you to modify complex SVG paths and transform them for different animation morphing states. - type: live-example data: title: Line Interpolation / Smoothing level: 4 id: example-line-simple-smoothing classes: ct-golden-section intro: > By default Chartist uses a cardinal spline algorithm to smooth the lines. However, like all other things in Chartist, this can be customized easily! Check out the API Documentation for more smoothing options. - type: live-example data: title: Series Overrides level: 4 id: example-line-series-override classes: ct-golden-section intro: > By naming your series using the series object notation with a name property, you can enable the individual configuration of series specific settings. showLine, showPoint, showArea and even the smoothing function can be overriden per series! And guess what? You can even override those series settings in the responsive configuration! Check the example code for more details. - title: Bar chart examples level: 3 items: - type: live-example data: title: Bi-polar bar chart level: 4 id: bi-polar-bar-interpolated classes: ct-golden-section intro: > A bi-polar bar chart with a range limit set with low and high. There is also an interpolation function used to skip every odd grid line / label. - type: live-example data: title: Overlapping bars on mobile level: 4 id: overlapping-bars classes: ct-golden-section intro: > This example makes use of label interpolation and the seriesBarDistance property that allows you to make bars overlap over each other. This then can be used to use the available space on mobile better. Resize your browser to see the effect of the responsive configuration. - type: live-example data: title: Add peak circles using the draw events level: 4 id: example-bar-with-circle-modify-drawing classes: ct-golden-section intro: > With the help of draw events we are able to add a custom SVG shape to the peak of our bars. - type: live-example data: title: Multi-line labels level: 4 id: example-multiline-bar classes: ct-golden-section intro: > Chartist will figure out if your browser supports foreignObject and it will use them to create labels that re based on regular HTML text elements. Multi-line and regular CSS styles are just two of many benefits while using foreignObjects! - type: live-example data: title: Stacked bar chart level: 4 id: stacked-bar classes: ct-golden-section intro: > You can also set your bar chart to stack the series bars on top of each other easily by using the stackBars property in your configuration. - type: live-example data: title: Horizontal bar chart level: 4 id: example-bar-horizontal classes: ct-golden-section intro: > Guess what! Creating horizontal bar charts is as simple as it can get. There's no new chart type you need to learn, just passing an additional option is enough. - type: live-example data: title: Extreme responsive configuration level: 4 id: example-bar-extreme-responsive classes: ct-golden-section intro: > As all settings of a chart can be customized with the responsive configuration override mechanism of Chartist, you can create a chart that adopts to every media condition! - type: live-example data: title: Distributed series level: 4 id: example-bar-distributed-series classes: ct-golden-section intro: > Sometime it's desired to have bar charts that show one bar per series distributed along the x-axis. If this option is enabled, you need to make sure that you pass a single series array to Chartist that contains the series values. In this example you can see T-shirt sales of a store categorized by size. - type: live-example data: title: Label placement level: 4 id: example-bar-label-position classes: ct-golden-section intro: > You can change the position of the labels on line and bar charts easily by using the position option inside of the axis configuration. - title: Pie chart examples level: 3 items: - type: live-example data: title: Simple pie chart level: 4 id: simple-pie-chart classes: ct-golden-section ct-negative-labels intro: A very simple pie chart with label interpolation to show percentage instead of the actual data series value. - type: live-example data: title: Pie chart with custom labels level: 4 id: pie-with-custom-labels classes: ct-golden-section intro: > This pie chart is configured with custom labels specified in the data object. On desktop we use the labelOffset property to offset the labels from the center. Also labelDirection can be used to control the direction in which the labels are expanding. - type: live-example data: title: Gauge chart level: 4 id: simple-gauge-chart classes: ct-golden-section ct-negative-labels intro: This pie chart uses donut, startAngle and total to draw a gauge chart. - type: live-example data: title: Animating a Donut with Svg.animate level: 4 id: example-donut-animation classes: ct-golden-section intro: > Although it'd be also possible to achieve this animation with CSS, with some minor suboptimal things, here's an example of how to animate donut charts using Chartist.Svg.animate and SMIL.
