Working with Data

Local Data

There are two ways to provide local data to chart.

1. You can bind the data to the chart by using the dataSource property of the series and then you need to map the X and Y value with the xName and yName properties respectively.

NOTE

For the OHLC type series, you have to map four dataSource fields (high, low, open and close) to bind the data source and for the bubble series you have to map the size field along with the xName and yName.

JAVASCRIPT

var chartData = [
          { month: 'Jan', sales: 35 }, { month: 'Feb', sales: 28 },  { month: 'Mar', sales: 34 },
          { month: 'Apr', sales: 32 },{ month: 'May', sales: 40 },{ month: 'Jun', sales: 32 },
          { month: 'Jul', sales: 35 },  { month: 'Aug', sales: 55 }, { month: 'Sep', sales: 38 },
          { month: 'Oct', sales: 30 }, { month: 'Nov', sales: 25 }, { month: 'Dec', sales: 32 }];

       var series=[
        {
	        dataSource: chartData,
	        xName: "month",
	        yName: "sales"	
        }
       ];
       ReactDOM.render(
    <EJ.Chart id="default_chart_sample_0"
    series={series}
    >
        
            
    </EJ.Chart>,
		  document.getElementById('chart-default')
    );

2.You can also plot data to chart using points option in the series. Using this property you can customize each and every point in the data.

JAVASCRIPT

"use strict";
      var series = [{
               //Adding data points using x and y field of points
               points: [{ x: "John", y: 10000 }, { x: "Jake", y: 12000 }, { x: "Peter", y: 18000 },
                        { x: "James", y: 11000 }, { x: "Mary", y: 9700 }],
               // ...
           }];
    ReactDOM.render(
    <EJ.Chart id="chart1" series = {series} ></EJ.Chart>,
          document.getElementById('chart-default')
    );

Remote Data

You can bind the remote data to the chart by using the DataManager and you can use the query property of the series to filter the data from the dataSource.

JAVASCRIPT

"use strict";
     //Remote URL           
        var dataManger = new ej.DataManager({
            url: "http://mvc.syncfusion.com/Services/Northwnd.svc/"
        });
        // Query creation
        var query = ej.Query().from("Orders").take(6);
       var series = [{
                type: 'column',
                dataSource: dataManger,
                xName: "ShipCity",
                yName: "Freight",
                query: query,
            }];
           
           
    ReactDOM.render(
        <EJ.Chart id="chart1" series = {series} ></EJ.Chart>,
            document.getElementById('chart-default')
    );
