Britecharts
Britecharts makes it easier to build stunning D3.js-powered interactive charts with little code.
Britecharts is a client-side reusable Charting Library based on D3.js v5 that provides easy composition of charts and components to create amazing data visualizations.
Key Features
- 🛠 Reusable - Configure your charts to create different looks and behaviors.
- 🏗 Composable - Mix and match components to create insightful experiences.
- 🌈 Great design - Clean and vivid looks to amaze your users.
- ⚙️ Simple - The codebase is a regular D3.js code you can fork and modify.
Britecharts components have been written in ES2016 with a Test Driven methodology, so they are fully tested, and we are committed to keeping them that way.
Usage
The typical use of Britecharts involves creating a chart using its simple API, then rendering it on a container that has previously had data applied to it. The code will look like this:
import { select } from 'd3-selection';
import { bar } from '@britecharts/core';
const barChart = bar();
const barContainer = select('.bar-chart-container');
const dataset = [...];
barChart
.width(500)
.height(300);
barContainer.datum(dataset).call(barChart);
To use Britecharts with React, you will need to use the @britecharts/react
package. Also, if you use Angular, check out ngx-britecharts and their demos. We also include a set of wrappers in @britecharts/wrappers
that you can use to employ Britecharts with other web frameworks.
API
All the components expose common API methods like width, height, and margin. Additionally, each component exposes specific methods you can find in the documentation:
- API, Demo Line Chart
- API, Demo Bar Chart
- API, Demo Donut Chart
- API, Demo Stacked Bar Chart
- API, Demo Grouped Bar Chart
- API, Demo Bullet Chart
- API, Demo Brush Chart
- API, Demo Scatter Plot
- API, Demo Sparkline Chart
- API, Demo Stacked Area Chart
- API, Demo Step Chart
- API, Demo Mini Tooltip
- API, Demo Tooltip
- API, Demo Legend
Installation
Britecharts components are distributed in UMD modules and ES modules, each one exposing a D3.js component written with the Reusable API pattern. To use any of the Britecharts modules, you will need to require the chart in your JS file using CommonJS modules, ES modules, or adding a <script>
tag with the src
pointing to the file or CDN bundle. You would also need to load the d3-selection submodule to select the chart container.
npm install --save @britecharts/core d3-selection
# or
yarn add @britecharts/core d3-selection
Alternatively, you can load Britecharts from our CDN as we do in this demo page or play around in our CodePen demo projects.
Then, in your JavaScript module file you can now import and use charts:
import { bar } from '@britecharts/core';
import { select } from 'd3-selection';
const barChart = bar();
const container = select('#container');
const barData = [
{ name: 'Luminous', value: 2 },
{ name: 'Glittering', value: 5 },
{ name: 'Intense', value: 4 },
{ name: 'Radiant', value: 3 }
];
barChart
.margin({ left: 100 })
.isHorizontal(true)
.height(400)
.width(600);
container.datum(barData).call(barChart);
Britecharts comes with a basic set of CSS styles that you would load with a <link>
tag in your page's <head>
.
<link
rel="stylesheet"
href="./node_modules/britecharts/dist/css/britecharts.css"
/>*
You can customize CSS using new styles. Check our Styling Britecharts tutorial to get started.
