OECD Simple Charts

A lightweight chartingtool. Visit the docs or checkout the code.

Usage

To get started, you can either install the library using npm

npm install oecd-simple-charts

or embed the bundle.min.js and bundle.min.css files, either downloading them from the repository or directly embedding them from a CDN service like unpkg or jsDelivr.

<script src="https://unpkg.com/oecd-simple-charts/build/bundle.min.js"></script>
<link href="https://unpkg.com/oecd-simple-charts/build/bundle.min.css" rel="stylesheet">

In order to create a chart you need to add a container DOM node. Then you can start with the configuration of the chart. You can set a title, change the size and color of the elements and add data points. Each chart has an update function, that takes an array of new data and updates the visualization.

Development

Clone the repository, install the dependencies, builds the application and starts a webserver with hot loading on localhost:3000:

$ git clone https://github.com/oecd-cyc/oecd-simple-charts.git
$ cd oecd-simple-charts
$ npm install
$ npm start

Build

Builds a minified version of the library in the build/ folder.

$ npm run build

Testing

Run the functional test-suite located in test/:

$ npm test

To run the visual-regression tests, you will first need a running webserver on port 3000 (see Development). Then you can start the tests running:

$ npm run test:visual

If the test fails, but you want to keep your changes run:

$ npm run test:visual:reference

This will save new screenshots in the screenshots/ folder and these will be used as reference to be tested against the next time you run the tests.

Update documentation

In order to generate the docs, run:

$ npm run docs
