Datum

• Simplest form, array of numbers: [1,2,3,4...]. View Datum result on Bricks
• Datum includes parameters, Index and Value which form the datum [{ "l": 1,"v":1},{"l": 4,"v":6}], "l" represent the Index and "v" the Value. The simple datum generate a line starting at (1,1) and ending at (4,6). View Datum result on Bricks.
• A set of line charts that can be achieved using different Value creating the datum [{"l":1,"v":[1,2,3]},{"l":2,"v":[3,2,1]},{"l":3,"v":[2,1,3]}], the advantage of using this datum format is that the different line charts can be stacked using the stacked property. View Datum result on Bricks.
• Else generating each line separately in a datum array [[{"l":1,"v":3},{"l":2,"v":5}],[{"l":1,"v":1},{"l":6,"v":7}]], great for populating distinct chart. View Datum result on Bricks.
• Datum also supports Unix timestamp (or epoch time) data-set which can be easily converted into specific calendar date using string specifiers. An example of a datum using epoch datum [ { "l" : 1461456000000, "v" : [ 12, 3 ] }, { "l" : 1461542400000, "v" : [ 5, 11 ] }, { "l" : 1461628800000, "v" : [ 8, 7 ]}], in this example the Index is set to epoch format. View Datum result on Bricks, in the example I used labelTime property to convert the Unix timestamp using the smart formatter call 'multi' and using tickCountIndex property to display only 4 ticks.

Time

The two main time formatter available in UTC or Local Time. UTC uses the time standard applied across the world which is unaffected by Daylight Saving Time whereas Local Time is set to your local timezone. To use any of the formatter a function is parsed to labelTime function. To apply UTC format, d3.utcFormat(specifier) is used, argument being the string specifiers and when using Local Time, only the string specifiers can be supply since by default the time format is set to Local Time.

timeMultiFormat is a smart formatter that displays the time in UTC using 'multi' as an argument which is parsed to the labelTime function. Use 'multi-local' to enable local timezone ticks. The tick display can be customised using the tickCountIndex function displaying the number of ticks for the Index. Bricks Example
