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.

end

#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.



362

364
# File 'lib/gruff/base.rb', line 362

def replace_colors(color_list = [])
  @colors = color_list
end

#theme=(options) ⇒ Object

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

g = Gruff::Bar.new
g.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
