amcharts: reverse time (category) axis? - javascript

Is it possible to reverse the category axis of a time-based chart in amcharts? I know that the value axis can be easily flipped but I've not seen a solution for the category axis. I need to have the most relevant and therefore recent data on the left.
I'm using a time-based area chart. Here's a demo: http://jsfiddle.net/N5rpu/1/
In the example I've reversed the value axis and done the same to the category axis just to show that nothing happens.
var chart = AmCharts.makeChart("chartdiv", {
"type": "serial",
"theme": "none",
"pathToImages": "http://www.amcharts.com/lib/3/images/",
"dataProvider": chartData,
"valueAxes": [{
"position": "left",
"title": "Unique visitors",
"reversed": true
}],
"graphs": [{
"fillAlphas": 0.4,
"valueField": "visits"
}],
"chartScrollbar": {},
"chartCursor": {
"categoryBalloonDateFormat": "JJ:NN, DD MMMM",
"cursorPosition": "mouse"
},
"categoryField": "date",
"categoryAxis": {
"minPeriod": "mm",
"parseDates": true,
"reversed": true
}
});

In fact I had the opposite problem - dates in the AmCharts categoryAxis where being displayed in reverse from chronological order!
This was achieved by ordering the dates from most recent to less recent in the dataProvider array, i.e.
"dataProvider": [{
"value": 74,
"date": "2014-11-16"
},
{
"value": 73,
"date": "2014-11-15"
},
{
"value": 70,
"date": "2014-11-14"
}];

get the range values from AmCharts

I have an AmCharts working, this is the code:
var chart = AmCharts.makeChart("chartdiv", {
"type": "serial",
"theme": "light",
"precision":"3",
"decimalSeparator": ",",
"thousandsSeparator": ".",
"legend": {
"horizontalGap": 10,
"maxColumns": 3,
"position": "top",
"useGraphSettings": false,
"markerSize": 10,
"marginTop": 20,
"autoMargins":true,
"forceWidth":true,
"valueAlign":"right",
"labelWidth":85,
"valueWidth":85
},
"dataProvider": response,
"synchronizeGrid":true,
"valueAxes": [{
"axisAlpha": 0,
"position": "left",
"title": "Activos"
}],
/*"startDuration": 0.5,*/
"graphs": graphs,
"chartScrollbar": {},
"chartCursor": {
"cursorPosition": "mouse"
},
"categoryField": "diahora",
"categoryAxis": {
/*"parseDates": true,*/
"gridPosition": "start",
"axisColor": "#DADADA",
/*"minorGridEnabled": true*/
},
"export": {
"enabled": true,
"position": "top-right",
"class": "export-main",
"menu": [ {
"title": "Exportar el gráfico a archivo de imagen",
"label": "Descargar",
"menu": [ "PNG", "JPG", "PDF" ]
}]
}
});
I'm calling it with ajax with:
$.get(url, function(response){
So, I need to get the 2 values of the range of X of the graph that is being rendered on the browser after a zoom, any idea?
For example, when the graph starts, the range of the axis x are 0 and 100. If I zoom into some range, for example 40 and 60, I need to retrieve those values (40 and 60) because I will use them for another things in the page.
So, how could I save those ranges after every ajax call?
AmCharts provides the zoomed event, which gives you the start and end indices/values. You can use that and store the values for whatever you need, e.g.
AmCharts.makeChart("chartdiv", {
// ...
listeners: [{
event: "zoomed",
method: function(e) {
//e.startIndex and e.endIndex gives you the indicies in the dataProvider
//e.startValue and e.endValue gives you the start and end values
//e.startDate and e.endDate gives you the start and end dates if you're using parseDates
}
}]
});
Note that zoomed is also called on the initial load. If you don't want to capture the initial start/end values, you might need to keep track of the first load before storing those values on subsequent zoom events.

Amchart Dont show data where value =0

Im working in a graph where data comes from server like Object's Array.
I dont need some data to show in my graph, data where number=0, and i want to know if amchart have some function to dont show this.
Here is an example of the code:
var data =[
{'number':1, 'date':'11:00-11:59', 'duration': 3},
{'number':2, 'date':'12:00-12:59', 'duration':6},
{'number':4, 'date':'13:00-13:59', 'duration':12},
{'number':8, 'date':'14:00-14:59', 'duration':8},
{'number':0, 'date':'14:00-14:59', 'duration':0}
];
var chart = AmCharts.makeChart("chartdiv", {
"theme": "light",
"type": "serial",
"startDuration": 2,
"dataProvider": data,
"valueAxes": [{
"id": "number",
"position": "left",
"title": "N Llamadas"
},{
"id": "durationAxis",
"position": "right",
"title": "duration"
}],
"graphs": [{
"balloonText": "[[category]]: <b>[[value]]</b>",
"fillColorsField": "color",
"fillAlphas": 1,
"lineAlpha": 0.1,
"type": "column",
"valueField": "number"
},{
"bullet": "square",
"bulletBorderAlpha": 1,
"bulletBorderThickness": 1,
"dashLengthField": "dashLength",
"legendValueText": "[[value]]",
"title": "duration",
"fillAlphas": 0,
"valueField": "duration",
"valueAxis": "durationAxis"
}],
"depth3D": 20,
"angle": 30,
"chartCursor": {
"categoryBalloonEnabled": false,
"cursorAlpha": 0,
"zoomable": false
},
"categoryField": "date",
"categoryAxis": {
"gridPosition": "start",
"labelRotation": 0
},
"export": {
"enabled": true
}
});
In this case i dont want to show the last item of the array because number is 0, i shouldnt create a new array for reasons project.
Thanks in advance
Not showing a graph object when a value is 0 is pretty much impossible without modifying the array due to the bullets of the line chart (you can hide a column using alphaField, but you can't remove the bullet). You can write an init handler that nulls out zero values so that the chart doesn't show the point or column at all upon chart initialization:
//Nulls out any field that contains a zero, effectively hiding the point/column from the chart.
//Note that the category will still be visible if both points are null unless you null out that category as well.
AmCharts.addInitHandler(function(chart) {
var valueFields = chart.graphs.map(function(graph) {
return graph.valueField;
});
chart.dataProvider.forEach(function(dataItem) {
valueFields.forEach(function(valueField) {
if (dataItem[valueField] === 0) {
dataItem[valueField] = null;
}
})
})
}, ["serial"]);
Note that this will effect the data export (csv, xlsx, json) as well. If you want to re-add those zero values to the data export, you can use the processData callback in the export plugin to modify your data to re-add the zeroes:
"export": {
"enabled": true,
//re-add nulled out values as zeroes for data export:
"processData": function(data, cfg) {
var valueFields = this.setup.chart.graphs.map(function(graph) {
return graph.valueField;
});
data.forEach(function(dataItem) {
valueFields.forEach(function(valueField) {
if (dataItem[valueField] == null) {
dataItem[valueField] = 0;
}
});
});
return data;
}
}

AmCharts - Line Chart Overflowing graph container

I am trying to get a line graph to display correctly on my site, but for some reason it wants to overflow the graph container. I have tried reset the box-sizing to initial, setting overflow hidden on all child elements of the graph and nothing seems to be working. I have no idea why this is happening and was wondering if anyone had come across this issue before themselves?
I've added an image below of what I am currently getting and underneath that, the object that is being used to set up the line graph.
{
"type": "serial",
"theme": "light",
"marginRight": 80,
"autoMarginOffset": 20,
"marginTop": 7,
"dataProvider": queryData.data.result,
"valueAxes": [{
"axisAlpha": 0.2,
"dashLength": 1,
"position": "left"
}],
"mouseWheelZoomEnabled": true,
"graphs": [{
"id": "g1",
"balloonText": "[[value]]",
"bullet": "round",
"bulletBorderAlpha": 1,
"bulletColor": "#FFFFFF",
"hideBulletsCount": 50,
"title": "red line",
"valueField": "value",
"useLineColorForBulletBorder": true,
"balloon": {
"drop": true
}
}],
"chartScrollbar": {
"autoGridCount": true,
"graph": "g1",
"scrollbarHeight": 40
},
"chartCursor": {
"limitToGraph": "g1"
},
"categoryField": "name",
"dataDateFormat": "DD/MM/YYYY HH:NN:SS",
"categoryAxis": {
"parseDates": true,
"axisColor": "#DADADA",
"dashLength": 1,
"minorGridEnabled": true
},
"export": {
"enabled": true
}
}
This might be happening if you are using <base href> directive on your web page. In those cases references to masking filters in SVG do not work properly, hence lines protruding from plot area.
To avoid that simply add the global baseHref setting line to your code:
AmCharts.baseHref = true;
Please note that this must be a standalone line (not a part of chart config) and go before any of the code that creates charts.

How to add labels to pie charts in amCharts?

The following is the function used to generate a pie chart. Everything is working fine, except for the addLabel parameter.
graphSentiChart:function(graphData) {
if(graphData.length < 1){
$('.dataContentStatsPie').html('No data available')
}
// $(".dataContentAllPie").empty();
var piechart = AmCharts.makeChart("chartPie", {
"type": "pie",
"theme": "light",
"autoMargins": true,
"marginTop": 0,
"marginBottom": 10,
"marginLeft": 0,
"marginRight": 0,
"dataProvider": graphData,
"titleField":"key",
"valueField": "value",
"addLabel": (0, 25, 'Total Tweets= 360'),
"startDuration":0,
"responsive": {
"enabled":true
},
"legend":{
"autoMargins":false,
"marginLeft":20,
"enabled": true,
"spacing":20,
"markerType":"circle",
"horizontalGap" :20,
},
"labelsEnabled":false,
//"balloonText": "[[title]]<br><span style='font-size:14px'><b>[[value]]</b> ([[percents]]%)</span>",
"colorField": "color",
"innerRadius": "60%",
"export": {
"enabled": true,
"libs": {
"path": "http://amcharts.com/lib/3/plugins/export/libs/"
}
}
});
What I have given in the addLabel parameter is not being taken and the label is also not getting shown. Can anybody help me on this?
There is no such property in amCharts addLabel. There is a method, which can be used to add labels to an already existing chart object.
To specify labels in the JSON config of the chart, use allLabels:
"allLabels": [{
"x": 0,
"y": 25,
"text": "Total Tweets= 360"
}]

amcharts gantt axis reverting to time instead of date

I'm trying to build a Gantt chart based on amcharts. I will probably have only one item per line though, so I tried with the sample _JSON_ganttDateBased but when I leave only one item per row (John, Smith and Ben only have one task each), the X axis reverts to time instead of date.
I looked into floating bar as a possible way around but I'm not sure I can put dates on the axis.
Thanks
This happens because the total time span is small and there's plenty of space to put grid lines / labels on X axis. So the chart reverts to lines.
This can be easily resolved by enforcing the granularity for your value axis to daily:
"valueAxis": {
"type": "date",
"minPeriod": "DD"
}
That should revert your axis increments back to days.
Here's a working example:
var chart = AmCharts.makeChart( "chartdiv", {
"type": "gantt",
"period": "DD",
"valueAxis": {
"type": "date",
"minPeriod": "DD"
},
"brightnessStep": 10,
"graph": {
"fillAlphas": 1,
"balloonText": "[[open]] - [[value]]"
},
"rotate": true,
"categoryField": "category",
"segmentsField": "segments",
"dataDateFormat": "YYYY-MM-DD",
"startDateField": "start",
"endDateField": "end",
"dataProvider": [ {
"category": "John",
"segments": [ {
"start": "2015-01-02",
"end": "2015-01-03"
} ]
}, {
"category": "Smith",
"segments": [ {
"start": "2015-01-01",
"end": "2015-01-02"
} ]
}, {
"category": "Ben",
"segments": [ {
"start": "2015-01-06",
"end": "2015-01-09"
} ]
} ],
"chartCursor": {
"valueBalloonsEnabled": false,
"cursorAlpha": 0,
"valueLineBalloonEnabled": true,
"valueLineEnabled": true
},
"chartScrollbar": {
}
} );
