This section explains briefly about how to create a PivotGauge control in your application with Angular. This section covers only the minimal features that you need to know to get started with the PivotGauge.

Getting started with SystemJS

To quick start with Syncfusion JavaScript Angular components run the below commands to clone the repository for SystemJS starter and installing required dependency packages.

  • JAVASCRIPT
    • > git clone https://github.com/syncfusion/angular2-seeds/ -b systemjs

 > cd angular2-seeds

 > npm install

    The below steps describes to add component with above cloned seed application.

    Syncfusion JavaScript components source configuration and sample creation

    • Copy required Syncfusion Angular source component(s) from the below build location and add it in src/ej folder (For ex., consider the pivotgauge component).
  • JAVASCRIPT
    • (Installed Location)\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\25.1.35\JavaScript\assets-src\angular2\

    NOTE

    core.ts file is mandatory for all Syncfusion JavaScript Angular components. The repository having the source file from Essential Studio for JavaScript v25.1.35.

    • Create pivotgauge folder inside src folder.

    • Create pivotgauge.component.html view file inside src/pivotgauge folder and render ejPivotGauge Angular component using the below code example.

  • HTML
    • <ej-pivotgauge></ej-pivotgauge>
    • Create pivotgauge.component.ts model file inside the folder src/pivotgauge and create sample component using the below code example.
  • TS
    • import { Component } from '@angular/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'ej-app',
  templateUrl: 'app/components/pivotgauge/pivotgauge.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['app/components/pivotgauge/pivotgauge.component.css'], 
})

export class PivotGaugeComponent {
    //..
}

    Configure the routes for the Router

    Before adding router configuration for above created ejPivotGauge component, we recommend you to go through the Angular Routing configuration to get the deeper knowledge about Angular routing.

    • Now, we are going to configure the route navigation link for created PivotGauge sample in src/app.component.html file.
  • HTML
    • <div>
	<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
		. . . .
		<li><a data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#skeleton-navigation-navbar-collapse.in" href="#pivotgauge" [routerLink]="['/pivotgauge']">PivotGauge </a></li>
	</ul>
</div>
<main>
	<router-outlet></router-outlet>
</main>
    • Import the ejPivotGauge sample component and define the route in src/app.routes.ts file.
  • JAVASCRIPT
    • import { Routes } from '@angular/router';
. . . . 
import { PivotGaugeComponent } from './pivotgauge/pivotgauge.component';

export const rootRouterConfig: Routes = [
    { path: '', redirectTo: 'home', pathMatch: 'full' },
    . . . . 
    { path: 'pivotgauge', component: PivotGaugeComponent }
];
    • Import and declare the Syncfusion source component and ejPivotGauge sample component into app.module.ts like the below code snippet.
  • JAVASCRIPT
    • import { NgModule, enableProdMode, ErrorHandler } from '@angular/core';
. . . . . 
import { EJ_PIVOTGAUGE_COMPONENTS } from './ej/pivotgauge.component';
import { PivotGaugeComponent } from './pivotgauge/pivotgauge.component';

import { rootRouterConfig } from './app.routes';
. . . . 
@NgModule({
  imports: [BrowserModule, FormsModule, HttpModule, RouterModule.forRoot(rootRouterConfig, { useHash: true })],
  declarations: [. . . . , EJ_PIVOTGAUGE_COMPONENTS,PivotGaugeComponent],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

    Relational

    This section covers the information that you need to know to populate a simple PivotGauge with Relational data source.

    Control Initialization

    Add necessary HTML elements in pivotgauge.component.html to render PivotGauge

  • HTML
    • <ej-pivotgauge [dataSource.data]="data" [dataSource.rows]="rows" [dataSource.columns]="columns" [dataSource.values]="values" [isResponsive]="true" [enableTooltip]="true" [backgroundColor]="transparent" [scales]="scales" >
</ej-pivotgauge>

    Create a CSS page and add necessary CSS elements for PivotGauge

  • CSS
    • ej-pivotgauge{
    height: 340px; 
    width: 100%; 
    overflow: auto; 
    float: left; 
    position:relative
}

    Populate PivotGauge with data

    Let us now see how to populate the PivotGauge control using a sample JSON data as shown below.

    <ej-pivotgauge [dataSource.data]="data" [dataSource.rows]="rows" [dataSource.columns]="columns" [dataSource.values]="values" [isResponsive]="true" [enableTooltip]="true" [backgroundColor]="transparent" [scales]="scales" >
</ej-pivotgauge>
    //..

export class PivotGaugeComponent {
    public data; rows; columns;values; 
    constructor() {
    this.data = [
            { Amount: 100, Country: "Canada", Date: "FY 2005", Product: "Bike", Quantity: 2, State: "Alberta" },
            { Amount: 200, Country: "Canada", Date: "FY 2006", Product: "Van", Quantity: 3, State: "British Columbia" },

        ];
        this.rows = [{ fieldName: "Country", fieldCaption: "Country" }, { fieldName: "State", fieldCaption: "State" }];
        this.columns = [{ fieldName: "Product", fieldCaption: "Product" }];
        this.values = [{ fieldName: "Amount", fieldCaption: "Amount" }, { fieldName: "Quantity", fieldCaption: "Quantity" }];
        this.scales = [{
                        showRanges: true,
                        radius: 150, showScaleBar: true, size: 1,

                            }]
                    }];
    }
}

    The above code will generate a simple PivotGauge as shown in below figure.

    OLAP

    This section covers the information that you need to know to populate a simple PivotGauge with OLAP data source.

    Control Initialization

    Add necessary HTML elements in pivotgauge.component.html to render PivotGauge

  • HTML
    • <ej-pivotgauge [dataSource.data]="data" [dataSource.catalog]="catalog" [dataSource.cube]="cube" [dataSource.rows]="rows" [dataSource.columns]="columns" [dataSource.values]="values" [isResponsive]="true" [enableTooltip]="true" [backgroundColor]="transparent" [scales]="scales" >
</ej-pivotgauge>

    Create a CSS page and add necessary CSS elements for PivotGauge

  • CSS
    • ej-pivotgauge{
    height: 340px; 
    width: 100%; 
    overflow: auto; 
    float: left; 
    position:relative
}

    Populate PivotGauge with data

    Let us now see how to populate the PivotGauge control using a sample JSON data as shown below.

    <ej-pivotgauge dataSource.data="http://bi.syncfusion.com/olap/msmdpump.dll" dataSource.catalog="Adventure Works DW 2008 SE" dataSource.cube="Adventure Works" [dataSource.rows]="rows" [dataSource.columns]="columns" [dataSource.values]="values" [isResponsive]="true" [enableTooltip]="true" [backgroundColor]="transparent" [scales]="scales" >
</ej-pivotgauge>
    //..

    constructor() {
        this.rows = [{ fieldName: "[Date].[Fiscal]", filterItems: { filterType: "include", values: ["[Date].[Fiscal].[Fiscal Year].&amp;[2004]"] } }];
        this.columns = [{ fieldName: "[Customer].[Customer Geography]" }];
        this.values = [{ measures: [{ fieldName: "[Measures].[Internet Sales Amount]", }, { fieldName: "[Measures].[Internet Revenue Status]" }, { fieldName: "[Measures].[Internet Revenue Trend]" }, { fieldName: "[Measures].[Internet Revenue Goal]" },], axis: "columns" }];
        this.scales = [{
                            showRanges: true,
                            radius: 150, showScaleBar: true, size: 1,

                                }, {
                                    position: { x: 180, y: 150 },
                                    font: { size: "12px", fontFamily: "Segoe UI", fontStyle: "Normal" }, color: "#666666"
                                }]
                        }];
    }
}

    The above code will generate a simple PivotGauge as shown in below figure.
