Description

This is an effort to revive the SVG::Graph library by Sean Russell. I'd also like to thank Claudio Bustos for giving me permissions to continue publishing the gem under it's original name: svg-graph

Changelog

Pull requests are very welcome :-)

Usage

For a complete list of configuration options please have a look at the source - most important Graph.rb, also checkout the subclasses (Pie, Bar, etc.) as they might provide additional options.

You can require everything at once

require 'svggraph'

or only the individual parts you need

require 'SVG/Graph/Bar'
require 'SVG/Graph/Line'
...

In the following some examples to get you up to speed.

Bar

require 'SVG/Graph/Bar'

x_axis = ['1-10', '10-30', '30-50', '50-70', 'older']

options = {  
  :width             => 640,
  :height            => 300,
  :stack             => :side,  # the stack option is valid for Bar graphs only
  :fields            => x_axis,
  :graph_title       => "kg per head and year chocolate consumption",
  :show_graph_title  => true,
  :show_x_title      => true,
  :x_title           => 'Age in years',
  :show_y_title      => true,
  :y_title           => 'kg/year',
  :y_title_location  => :end,
  :no_css            => true
}

male_data   = [2, 4, 6, 4, 2]
female_data = [1, 5, 4, 5, 2.7]

g = SVG::Graph::Bar.new(options)

g.add_data( {
    :data => female_data,
    :title => "Female"
  })
g.add_data( {
    :data => male_data,
    :title => "Male"
  })

# graph.burn            # this returns a full valid xml document containing the graph  
# graph.burn_svg_only   # this only returns the <svg>...</svg> node
File.open('bar.svg', 'w') {|f| f.write(g.burn_svg_only)}

Also have a look at the original SVG::Graph web page, but note that this repository has already added some additional functionality, not available with the original.
