Constructor Details

#initialize(target_width = DEFAULT_TARGET_WIDTH) ⇒ Base

If one numerical argument is given, the graph is drawn at 4/3 ratio according to the given width (800 results in 800x600, 400 gives 400x300, etc.).

Or, send a geometry string for other ratios ( ‘800x400’, ‘400x225’).

Parameters:

  • target_width (Numeric, String) (defaults to: DEFAULT_TARGET_WIDTH) —

    The graph image width.

#data(name, data_points = [], color = nil) ⇒ Object

Note:

If you want to use a preset theme, you must set it before calling #data.

Input the data in the graph.

Parameters are an array where the first element is the name of the dataset and the value is an array of values to plot.

Can be called multiple times with different datasets for a multi-valued graph.

If the color argument is nil, the next color from the default theme will be used.

Examples:

data("Bart S.", [95, 45, 78, 89, 88, 76], '#ffcc00')

Parameters:

  • name (String, Symbol) —

    The name of the dataset.

  • data_points (Array) (defaults to: []) —

    The array of dataset.

  • color (String) (defaults to: nil) —

    The color for drawing graph of dataset.

#replace_colors(color_list = []) ⇒ Object

Replace the entire color list with a new array of colors. Also aliased as the #colors= setter method.

If you specify fewer colors than the number of datasets you intend to draw, it will cycle through the array, reusing colors as needed.

Note that (as with the #theme= method), you should set up your color list before you send your data (via the #data method). Calls to the #data method made prior to this call will use whatever color scheme was in place at the time data was called.

Examples:

replace_colors ['#cc99cc', '#d9e043', '#34d8a2']

Parameters:

  • color_list (Array) (defaults to: []) —

    The array of colors.

  @colors = color_list
end

#theme=(options) ⇒ Object

You can set a theme manually. Assign a hash to this method before you send your data.

graph.theme = {
  colors: %w(orange purple green white red),
  marker_color: 'blue',
  background_colors: ['black', 'grey'],
  background_direction: :top_bottom
}

background_image: ‘squirrel.png’ is also possible.

background_direction accepts one of following parameters.

  • :top_bottom

  • :bottom_top

  • :left_right

  • :right_left

  • :topleft_bottomright

  • :topright_bottomleft

(Or hopefully something better looking than that.)

Parameters:

  • options (Hash) —

    The optional setting for theme
