Quick start
Here is a basic sample that shows how to add a chart:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en" ng-app="MyApp">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Anychart AngularJS plugin demo</title>
<script src="angular.min.js"></script>
<script src="anychart-bundle.min.js"></script>
<script src="anychart-angularjs.js"></script>
<style>
html, body {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
</style>
<script>
(function() {
'use strict';
angular
.module('MyApp', ['anychart-angularjs'])
.controller('MyCtrl', ['$scope', function($scope) {
$scope.myData = [
["Chocolate", 5],
["Rhubarb compote", 2],
["Crêpe Suzette", 2],
["American blueberry", 2],
["Buttermilk", 1]
];
}]);
})();
</script>
</head>
<body ng-controller="MyCtrl">
<div
anychart
ac-type="pie"
ac-data="myData"
ac-title="Simple Pie Demo"
ac-legend="true"
style="width: 100%; height: 100%">
</div>
</body>
</html>
AnychartService
AnychartService is an Angular Service. It is used to share data between scopes and to provide more opportunities for developers. To use it in your module use the standard Angular DI mechanism.
By default, AnychartService, as a shareable object, contains two fields:
AnychartService.charts
- an array that contains chart instances for
dashboarding purposes.AnychartService.chart
- current chart. Auto or manually created.
It is useful for any deferred actions like async data loading.
angular
.module('MyApp', ['anychart-angularjs'])
.controller('MyCtrl', ['$scope', '$http', 'AnychartService', function($scope, $http, AnychartService) {
var service = AnychartService;
$http.get('sample1.json').then(function(response) {
if (service.chart)
service.chart.data(response.data);
});
}]);
Available Directives
Directive | Code sample | Description |
---|
anychart | <div anychart></div> | Supports attributes specific to this directive and generates a chart from anychart module (not gantt, map or stock chart types) |
anygantt | <div anygantt></div> | Supports attributes specific to this directive and generates a chart from anygantt module (ganttResource and ganttProject ) |
anymap | <div anymap></div> | Supports attributes specific to this directive and generates a chart from anymap module (choropleth , bubbleMap , etc.). |
anystock | <div anystock></div> | Supports attributes specific to this directive and generates a chart from anystock module (anychart.stock ). |
anychart-stage | <div anychart-stage></div> | Generates anychart stage to deal with complex charts and any kind of custom drawing. |
anychart
directive attributes
This directive is used to work with charts from anychart module.
Attribute | View Sample | Controller Sample | Description |
---|
ac-type | <div anychart ac-type="line"></div> | - | Kind of chart to create. In a sample, anychart.line() constructor is called. |
ac-data | <div anychart ac-data="myData"></div> | $scope.myData = [ ... ]; | Data to be put into a $scope of your controller in a field named myData . This value is a data source for a chart. Please note that for anychart directive we set the data with chart.data() -method. If chart doesn't have this method, use ac-instance directive instead (described below). |
ac-title | <div anychart ac-title="My Custom Title"></div> | - | Sets a string value to a chart title. |
ac-legend | <div anychart ac-legend="true"></div> | - | A string representation of a boolean flag. Enables/disables a legend. |
ac-instance | <div anychart ac-instance="myChart"></div> | $scope.myChart = chart; | Chart instance is created in a controller manually and it is used instead of auto-created. In this case a chart can be configired using Anychart API and access to the settings is not available via these ac -attributes. To make it work, create an instance manually, configure it and put into a $scope in specified field. |
ac-chart-draw | <div anychart ac-chart-draw="afterDrawHandler"></div> | $scope.afterDrawHandler = function(chart) { ... }; | Function called after the chart is drawn. Takes a chart itself as and argument. |
Please note: No need to set a container of a chart and call chart.draw()
. The plugin does it automatically.
Sample:
<div anychart ac-data="myData" ac-type="pie" ac-chart-draw="afterDrawHandler"></div>
angular
.module('MyApp', ['anychart-angularjs'])
.controller('MyCtrl', ['$scope', function($scope) {
$scope.myData = [
["Chocolate", 5],
["Rhubarb compote", 2],
["Crêpe Suzette", 2],
["American blueberry", 2],
["Buttermilk", 1]
];
$scope.afterDrawHandler = function(chart) {
chart.title('After draw title');
}
}]);
anychart-stage
directive attributes
This directive is used to draw anychart stage for custom drawing and complex charts.
Attribute | View Sample | Controller Sample | Description |
---|
ac-instance | <div anychart-stage ac-instance="myStage"></div> | $scope.myStage = stage; | A stage instances is created in a controller manually and it is used instead of auto-created. In this case a stage is configured using Anychart API and access to the settings is not available via these ac -attributes. To make it work, create an instance manually, configure it and put into a $scope into a specified field. |
AnychartService can be used it to deal with anychart stage. Take a look at this sample:
angular
.module('MyApp', ['anychart-angularjs'])
.controller('MyCtrl', ['$scope', 'AnychartService', function($scope, AnychartService) {
var data = [
["Chocolate", 5],
["Rhubarb compote", 2],
["Crêpe Suzette", 2],
["American blueberry", 2],
["Buttermilk", 1]
];
var pie = anychart.pie(data);
pie.title("Top 5 pancake fillings");
pie.bounds(0, 0, '50%', '100%');
var line = anychart.line(data);
line.title("Top 5 pancake fillings");
line.bounds('50%', 0, '50%', '100%');
var afterDrawCallback = function(chart) {
chart.title('After Draw Title');
};
AnychartService.charts.push(
{
chart: pie,
chartDraw: afterDrawCallback
},
line
);
}]);
This is what happens in the sample above:
- Instances of
anychart.pie
and anychart.line
are created. - Data, bounds, title and so one are configured.
- Charts art put into
AnychartService.charts
. Note that we wrap pie
-chart
into an object with one additional field:: chartDraw
. chartDraw
is
a function that is called after pie
chart is drawn with a single argument
that is pie
chart itself. - Controller of
anychart-stage
directive processes the AnychartService.charts
array.
anygantt
directive attributes
This directive is used to deal with charts from anygantt module (ganttResource
, ganttProject
).
Attribute | View Sample | Controller Sample | Description |
---|
ac-type | <div anygantt ac-type="ganttProject"></div> | - | Kind of gantt chart to be created. In a sample, anychart.ganttProject() -constructor will be called. |
ac-data | <div anygantt ac-data="myData"></div> | $scope.myData = tree; | Just as the corresponding directive of anychart -directive, data tree is put into a $scope in a specified field. |
ac-title | <div anygantt ac-title="My Custom Title"></div> | - | Sets a string value to a chart title. |
ac-instance | <div anygantt ac-instance="myChart"></div> | $scope.myChart = chart; | Works with a predefined chart instance (see anychart directive). |
ac-chart-draw | <div anygantt ac-chart-draw="afterDrawHandler"></div> | $scope.afterDrawHandler = function(chart) { ... }; | Works the same way as described in anychart directive. |
ac-splitter-position | <div anygantt ac-splitter-position="300"></div> | - | Sets gantt chart splitter position. |
anymap
directive attributes
This directive is used to deal with charts from anymap module (choropleth
, bubbleMap
, etc).
Attribute | View Sample | Controller Sample | Description |
---|
ac-type | <div anymap ac-type="map"></div> | - | See anychart directive corresponding attribute. |
ac-data | <div anymap ac-data="myData"></div> | $scope.myData = data; | See anychart directive corresponding attribute. |
ac-title | <div anymap ac-title="My Custom Title"></div> | - | See anychart directive corresponding attribute. |
ac-legend | <div anymap ac-legend="true"></div> | - | See anychart directive corresponding attribute. |
ac-instance | <div anymap ac-instance="myChart"></div> | $scope.myChart = chart; | See anychart directive corresponding attribute. |
ac-chart-draw | <div anymap ac-chart-draw="afterDrawHandler"></div> | $scope.afterDrawHandler = function(chart) { ... }; | See anychart directive corresponding attribute. |
ac-geo-data | <div anymap ac-geo-data="anychart.maps.australia"></div> | - | Required attribute. Differs from ac-data : ac-geo-data sets geo data source, ac-data is a data for the default map series. |
anystock
directive attributes
Works only with ac-instance
and ac-chart-draw
attributes because of the specifics of Stock Chart setup.
