Area Chart

API information regarding each chart is not addressed in this document. Refer to the API Guide.

Creating the Chart

There are two different ways to create the Area chart. The Area chart can be created through the constructor function or the static function. The two methods both result in returning an instance of the chart. The HTML element in which the chart is drawn el, data data, and the options object options are taken as parameters. If the element in which the chart is drawn contains elements other than the chart itself, it may unintentionally affect the chart. Therefore, it is recommended that you use an empty HTML element.

import { AreaChart } from '@toast-ui/chart';

const chart = new AreaChart({el, data, options});

// or

import Chart from '@toast-ui/chart';

const chart = Chart.AreaChart({el, data, options});

Basic Chart

Data Type

categories values are shown on the x-axis, and the series value must be completed with the name and the data. The name is used to identify each series and its id must be unique.

const data = {
  categories: [
    'Jan',
    'Feb',
    'Mar',
    'Apr',
    'May',
    'June',
    'July',
    'Aug',
    'Sep',
    'Oct',
    'Nov',
    'Dec',
  ],
  series: [
    {
      name: 'Seoul',
      data: [20, 40, 25, 50, 15, 45, 33, 34, 20, 30, 22, 13],
    },
    {
      name: 'Sydney',
      data: [5, 30, 21, 18, 59, 50, 28, 33, 7, 20, 10, 30],
    },
    {
      name: 'Moskva',
      data: [30, 5, 18, 21, 33, 41, 29, 15, 30, 10, 33, 5],
    },
  ],
}

range Chart

Data Type

The main difference between the range chart and the basic chart is the type of the series data. The data must be entered as an array, and the starting value and the ending value must be entered according to the numerical order.

const data = {
  categories: [
    'Jan',
    'Feb',
    'Mar',
    'Apr',
    'May',
    'June',
    'July',
    'Aug',
    'Sep',
    'Oct',
    'Nov',
    'Dec',
  ],
  series: [
    {
      name: 'Seoul',
      data: [
        [-8.3, 0.3],
        [-5.8, 3.1],
        [-0.6, 9.1],
        [5.8, 16.9],
        [11.5, 22.6],
        [16.6, 26.6],
        [21.2, 28.8],
        [21.8, 30.0],
        [15.8, 25.6],
        [8.3, 19.6],
        [1.4, 11.1],
        [-5.2, 3.2],
      ],
    },
  ],
}

visible

Each series can have visible option. The visible option determines whether the series is displayed when the chart is first drawn. The default is true. Both basic chart and range chart use the same way.

const data = {
  categories: [
    'Jan',
    'Feb',
    'Mar',
    'Apr',
    'May',
    'Jun',
    'Jul',
    'Aug',
    'Sep',
    'Oct',
    'Nov',
    'Dec',
  ],
  series: [
    {
      name: 'Seoul',
      data: [20, 40, 25, 50, 15, 45, 33, 34, 20, 30, 22, 13],
      visible: false,
    },
    {
      name: 'Sydney',
      data: [5, 30, 21, 18, 59, 50, 28, 33, 7, 20, 10, 30],
    },
    {
      name: 'Moscow',
      data: [30, 5, 18, 21, 33, 41, 29, 15, 30, 10, 33, 5],
    },
  ],
}

If you create a chart by applying the above option, you can see that the checkbox is unchecked.

Options

options should be used as an object.

type options = {
  chart?: {
    // ...
  },
  xAxis?: {
    // ...
  },
  yAxis?: {
    // ...
  },
  legend?: {
    // ...
  },
  exportMenu?: {
    // ...
  },
  tooltip?: {
    // ...
  },
  plot?: {
    // ...
  },
  responsive?: {
    // ...
  },
  theme?: {
    // More explanations in the `theme` chapter.
  },
  series?: {
    showDot?: boolean;
    spline?: boolean;
    zoomable?: boolean;
    eventDetectType?: 'near' | 'nearest' | 'grouped';
    shift?: boolean;
    stack?: boolean | {
      type: 'normal' | 'percent';
    }
    dataLabels?: {
      visible?: boolean;
      anchor?: 'center' | 'start' | 'end' | 'auto' | 'outer';
      offsetX?: number;
      offsetY?: number;
      formatter?: (value) => string;
    }
  }
};

Common options that can be used with this chart are not addressed in this document. Refer to the respective options guide. (Links: chart Options, Axis, Legend, Export, Tooltip, Plot, responsive Options, Live Update )

stack

The stack option can be used to combine multiple series to form a stack chart. There are two types of stack charts: normal type and the percent type.

normal Type

const options = {
  series: {
    stack: {
      type: 'normal'
    }
  }
}

percent Type

const options = {
  series: {
    stack: {
      type: 'percent'
    }
  }
}

selectable

default: false

Makes the series selectable.

const options = {
  series: {
    selectable: true
  }
};

selectable option, accompanied by on API's selectSeries and unselectSeries, grants further control over the series.

spline

default: false

Fits the series into a smooth spline curve.

const options = {
  series: {
    spline: true
  }
}

eventDetectType

default: nearest

Defines ways to detect the data to be displayed on the tool tip.

Type	Details
`near`	Detects the data when it is within a specified range of the mouse. If there are more than one data sets within a specified range, they are all detected.
`nearest`	Event is detected within the entire area of the chart. Only the series that is closest to the mouse is detected.
`grouped`	All data that are equal with respect to the x-axis are detected.
`point`	Detected when hovering over the series data point area.

const options = {
  series: {
    eventDetectType: 'grouped'
  }
};

zoomable

default: false

zoomable can be used to zoom into the chart.

const options = {
  series: {
    zoomable: true
  }
}

dataLabels

Data labels display information regarding the series on the chart. The following are the options for dataLabels.

type options = {
  ...
  series?: {
    dataLabels?: {
      visible?: boolean;
      offsetX?: number;
      offsetY?: number;
      formatter?: (value) => string;
    }
  }
};

Name	Type	Details
`visible`	boolean	Whether to make the data label visible
`offsetX`	number	X offset of the data label position
`offsetY`	number	Y offset of the data label position
`formatter`	function	Takes the value of the data as its parameter and defines the format to be displayed

// basic
const options = {
  series: {
    dataLabels: { visible: true }
  }
};

The theme can be added through the theme value in the options object. For example, let's change the opacity and the line width of a series area.

const options = {
  theme: {
    series: {
      areaOpacity: 0.8,
      lineWidth: 3,
    }
  }
};

The result of the above option is shown as shown below.

The code below applies a theme to the data label to use text bubbles and to change the text styles.

const options = {
  series: {
    dataLabels: { visible: true, offsetY: -10 }
  },
  theme: {
    series: {
      dataLabels: {
        fontFamily: 'monaco',
        fontSize: 10,
        fontWeight: 300,
        useSeriesColor: true,
        textBubble: {
          visible: true,
          arrow: {
            visible: true,
            width: 5,
            height: 5,
            direction: 'bottom'
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
};
