interpolated-charts v1.3.1

Interpolated Charts

Configurable d3 v4 charts with interpolation and missing data range. Inspired by Britecharts

Angular component here

Live demo

Description

• Configurable line chart with tooltip and markers
• Gasps between data points (missing data range)
• Compute and display interpolated values between data points

Iterpolation values are calculated on svg path element using the binary search method. It means that after changing chart curve type (d3.curveBasis, d3.curveCatmullRom, ...) computed values can change. Do not rely on this data if you need high accuracy.

Installation

1. Install with npm

npm install interpolated-charts --save

2. Import JS dependencies

import * as d3 from 'd3';
import { line, stackBar, chartEvents, verticalDivider, markers, tooltip } from 'interpolated-charts';

3. Import CSS

@import 'interpolated-charts/src/index.css'

Usage

Package include line chart and three plugins: vertical divider, markers highlight, tooltip information. Line chart dispatch mouse events (chartMouseEnter, chartMouseLeave, chartMouseMove, chartMouseClick), defined in chartEvents. Default configuration for chart with plugins:

const verticalDividerPlugin = verticalDivider();
const markersPlugin = markers();
const tooltipPlugin = tooltip();

const lineChart = line()
  // subscribe plugins to chart events
  .on(chartEvents.chartMouseEnter, () => {
    verticalDividerPlugin.show();
  })
  .on(chartEvents.chartMouseLeave, () => {
    verticalDividerPlugin.remove();
    markersPlugin.remove();
    tooltipPlugin.remove();
  })
  .on(chartEvents.chartMouseMove, (options) => {
    verticalDividerPlugin.update(options);
    markersPlugin.show(options);
    tooltipPlugin.show(options);
  });

// create chart with data
const chartContainer = d3.select('.default-chart');
chartContainer.datum(lineChartData).call(lineChart);

// bind plugins to chart
const metadataContainer = d3.select('.default-chart .metadata-container');
metadataContainer.datum([]).call(verticalDividerPlugin);
metadataContainer.datum([]).call(markersPlugin);
metadataContainer.datum([]).call(tooltipPlugin);

Chart data example:

const lineChartData = [
  // each object represent chart line dataset
  {
    'name': 'Minsk',
    // optional color
    'color': 'darkblue',
    'data': [
      { 'date': new Date('2015-01-01T00:00:00'), 'value': 20 },
      { 'date': new Date('2015-01-02T00:00:00'), 'value': 16 }
    ]
  }
]

Default chart is first example on demo page.

Package include internal @types for Typescript.

Line Chart

Usage

// create chart with custom config
const lineChart = line({ width: 900 });
// set property on existing chart
lineChart.curve(d3.curveCatmullRom);
// get d3 selection for chart container
const chartContainer = d3.select('.default-chart');
const lineChartData = [/* PathDataSet[] */];
// bind selection with data and call chart creation
chartContainer.datum(lineChartData).call(lineChart);

Chart data format

interface PathDataSet {
  name: string;
  color?: string;
  data: { date: Date, value: number }[];
}

Events

chartEvents.chartMouseEnter - mouse entered chart boundary. Arguments - mouse coordinates x, y relative to chart;

chartEvents.chartMouseLeave - mouse leaved chart boundary. Arguments - mouse coordinates x, y relative to chart;

chartEvents.chartMouseMove - mouse moved inside chart boundary. Event treshhold (mouseMoveTimeTreshold, ms) - min time between events. Arguments - { x: number, y: number, selectedDate: Date, data: PointData[] }. data - array of closest chart points data based on mouse current position:

interface PointData {
  // concrete values from PathDataSet and their coordinates on graph
  date: Date;
  value: number;
  x: number;
  y: number;
  // interpolated values, closest to mouse position
  interpolatedX: number;
  interpolatedY: number;
  interpolatedDate: Date;
  interpolatedValue: number;

  name: string;
  color: string;
}

chartEvents.chartMouseClick - mouse click inside chart boundary. Arguments - { x: number, y: number, selectedDate: Date, data: PointData[] }.

CSS

Chart grid lines css classes:

.line-chart .horizontal-grid-line, .line-chart .vertical-grid-line

Chart data format

Array of

interface StackBarData {
