ember-highcharts-mixin v0.0.2

Highcharts-mixin

Takes care of the hard stuff so you can focus on building charts.

Installation

ember install ember-highcharts-mixin

Usage

This mixin will automagicify a component with auto chart-drawing and refreshing. Include it with:

import HighchartsMixin from 'ember-highcharts-mixin';

At the top of your component's file. Your component only needs to provide two things:

1. An options property that returns a POJO of Highcharts options. This would be the same object you'd pass to Highcharts, see documentation. The only difference is you won't include your series here.
2. A series property that returns an array of objects representing your series. This would be the same array you'd normally have as a series property of the Highcharts options object.

And that's it! You can now place your component in your templates.

Why the separation of series from options? Because it's very unlikely your data is already formatted as Highcharts series. And each series is unique to that specific chart. Separating the series allows you to define it as a computed property that takes in data from elsewhere and massages it into the format you want for this particular chart. Everything is live bound, so if the data changes, your series array will change, and your chart will redraw.
