18 Nov 20186 minutes to read

This section briefly explains how to include Blazor Accumulation Chart component in a Blazor Server App using Visual Studio, Visual Studio Code, and the .NET CLI.

• Visual Studio
• Visual Studio Code
• .NET CLI

Prerequisites

• System requirements for Blazor components

Create a new Blazor App in Visual Studio

Create a Blazor Server App by using the Blazor Web App template in Visual Studio via Microsoft Templates or the Syncfusion® Blazor Extension. For detailed instructions, refer to the Blazor Server App Getting Started documentation.

Prerequisites

• System requirements for Blazor components

Create a new Blazor App in Visual Studio Code

Create a Blazor Server App using Visual Studio Code via Microsoft Templates or the Syncfusion® Blazor Extension. For detailed instructions, refer to the Blazor Server App Getting Started documentation.

Alternatively, create a Server application using the following command in the integrated terminal (Ctrl+`).

Blazor Server App

dotnet new blazor -o BlazorApp -int Server
cd BlazorApp

Prerequisites

Install the latest version of .NET SDK. If the .NET SDK is already installed, determine the installed version by running the following command in a command prompt (Windows), terminal (macOS), or command shell (Linux).

.NET CLI

dotnet --version

Create a Blazor Server App using .NET CLI

Run the following command to create a new Blazor Server App in a command prompt (Windows) or terminal (macOS) or command shell (Linux). For detailed instructions, refer to the Blazor Server App Getting Started documentation.

.NET CLI

dotnet new blazor -o BlazorApp -int Server
cd BlazorApp

NOTE

Configure the appropriate Interactive render mode and Interactivity location while creating a Blazor Server App. For detailed information, refer to the interactive render mode documentation.

Install required Blazor packages

Install the Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts NuGet package in your project using the NuGet Package Manager in Visual Studio (Tools → NuGet Package Manager → Manage NuGet Packages for Solution), or the integrated terminal in Visual Studio Code (dotnet add package Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts –version 34.1.29), or the .NET CLI.

Alternatively, run the following commands in the Package Manager Console to achieve the same.

Package Manager

Install-Package Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts -Version 34.1.29

NOTE

All Syncfusion Blazor packages are available on nuget.org. See the NuGet packages topic for details.

Add import namespaces

After the packages are installed, open the ~/_Imports.razor file and import the Syncfusion.Blazor and Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts namespaces.

NOTE

The ~/ notation represents the root directory of your project. This file is typically located in your project’s root folder.

~/_Imports.razor

@using Syncfusion.Blazor
@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts

Register Blazor service

Register the Blazor service in the Program.cs file of your Blazor Server App. This step enables the Syncfusion components to work in your application.

Program.cs

....
using Syncfusion.Blazor;
....
builder.Services.AddSyncfusionBlazor();
....

Add script resources

The Syncfusion JavaScript library needs to be included in your application. The script can be accessed from NuGet through Static Web Assets. Include the script reference in the ~/Components/App.razor file (this is the root layout file of your application).

<script src="_content/Syncfusion.Blazor.Core/scripts/syncfusion-blazor.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

NOTE

Check out the Adding Script Reference topic to learn different approaches for adding script references in the Blazor application.

Add Blazor Accumulation Chart component

Add the Blazor Accumulation Chart component in the ~/Components/Pages/Home.razor file. If the interactivity location is set to Per page/component, define a render mode at the top of the ~Pages/Home.razor file.

NOTE

If the Interactivity Location is set to Global, the render mode is automatically configured in the App.razor file by default.

RAZOR

@* desired render mode defined here *@
@rendermode InteractiveServer

Home.razor

<!-- SfAccumulationChart is the root container component for the accumulation chart -->
<SfAccumulationChart>
    <!-- Container for defining chart series -->
    <AccumulationChartSeriesCollection>
        <!-- AccumulationChartSeries defines a data series with its data source and axis mappings -->
        <AccumulationChartSeries DataSource="@MedalDetails" XName="Country" YName="Medals">
        </AccumulationChartSeries>
    </AccumulationChartSeriesCollection>
</SfAccumulationChart>

@code{
    public class ChartData
    {
        public string Country { get; set;}
        public double Medals { get; set;}
    }

    public List<ChartData> MedalDetails = new List<ChartData>
    {
        new ChartData { Country= "United States of America", Medals= 46 },
        new ChartData { Country= "Great Britain", Medals= 27 },
        new ChartData { Country= "China", Medals= 26 },
        new ChartData { Country= "United Kingdom", Medals= 23 },
        new ChartData { Country= "Australia", Medals= 16 },
        new ChartData { Country= "India", Medals= 36 },
        new ChartData { Country= "Nigeria", Medals= 12 },
        new ChartData { Country= "Brazil", Medals= 20 },
     };
}

Press Ctrl+F5 (Windows) or ⌘+F5 (macOS) to launch the application. This will render the Blazor Accumulation Chart component in the default web browser.
