Real-Time Chart

12 May 20171 minute to read

Chart can be updated dynamically with the real time data. Whenever you add a point or remove a point from the dataSource, you can call the redraw method to request the chart to redraw its content.

NOTE

You can get the chart instance using instance method.

javascript

"use strict";
	window.setInterval(updateChart, 200);
        var series= [ 
                {  points: [ ] }
        ]; 
		    //Function that updates chart dynamically
	function updateChart(){

	        //Creating chart instance
		var chart =  $("#default_chart_sample_0").ejChart("instance");      
			
		if (chart.model.series[0].points.length > 10)
			chart.model.series[0].points.splice(0, 1);
		
		var point = chart.model.series[0].points;
		var xValue = point.length > 0 ? point[point.length - 1].x + 1 : 1;
		point[point.length] = { x:  xValue, y: getRandomNum( 1000 ) }
				
		//Update Chart dynamically using redraw option
		//chart.redraw() can also be used here instead of redraw option
		$("#default_chart_sample_0").ejChart("redraw");      
       }
        // ...
	ReactDOM.render(
		<EJ.Chart id="default_chart_sample_0"		
			
		>      
		</EJ.Chart>,
			document.getElementById('chart')
	);
