What is victory-voronoi-container?
The victory-voronoi-container package is a part of the Victory library, which provides a set of modular charting components for React. The victory-voronoi-container specifically allows for the creation of Voronoi overlays, which can be used to enhance data visualization by providing interactive regions that respond to user interactions such as mouse events.
What are victory-voronoi-container's main functionalities?
Basic Voronoi Container
This feature allows you to create a basic Voronoi container that displays labels when the user hovers over different regions of the chart. The labels show the x and y values of the data points.
const voronoiContainer = (
<VictoryVoronoiContainer
labels={({ datum }) => `x: ${datum.x}, y: ${datum.y}`}
/>
);
Custom Voronoi Container
This feature allows you to customize the Voronoi container by using a custom label component. In this example, a VictoryTooltip component is used to display the labels with a custom flyout style.
const customVoronoiContainer = (
<VictoryVoronoiContainer
labels={({ datum }) => `Custom label: ${datum.x}, ${datum.y}`}
labelComponent={<VictoryTooltip flyoutStyle={{ fill: 'white' }} />}
/>
);
Responsive Voronoi Container
This feature enables the Voronoi container to be responsive, adjusting to different screen sizes and orientations. The labels still display the x and y values of the data points.
const responsiveVoronoiContainer = (
<VictoryVoronoiContainer
responsive={true}
labels={({ datum }) => `x: ${datum.x}, y: ${datum.y}`}
/>
);
