Chart Library

Anyone know any good examples of making really high quality charts in Corona? [import]uid: 160288 topic_id: 33309 reply_id: 333309[/import]

I haven’t had a chance to look at this yet, but this might help: https://github.com/GlitchGames/GGChart [import]uid: 110228 topic_id: 33309 reply_id: 132289[/import]

Thanks, I did see that one. I’m looking for something with support for more chart types and preferably a better supported api like YUI 3 or something. [import]uid: 160288 topic_id: 33309 reply_id: 132299[/import]

You might want to look again.

You can easily modify his code to support all kinds of charts (https://developers.google.com/chart/image/docs/gallery/chart_gall):

Bar, Box, Candlestick, Compound, Google-O-Meter, GraphViz, Line, Map, Pie, Radar, Sscatter, Venn.

Note: I do understand your concern about support though. This service (via Google) is only guaranteed until sometime in 2015. [import]uid: 110228 topic_id: 33309 reply_id: 132377[/import]

As Emaurina has said you are fully welcome to add new chart types to the lib and also please push these back up so that they can be included for everyone.

If you are after a specific type I can try to put it in myself but can’t guarantee how soon. [import]uid: 119420 topic_id: 33309 reply_id: 132410[/import]

I’d love to see some gauges and would need to look to see what else I am missing. I was wondering, how hard you think it would be to wrap Yahoo’s Charting YUI 3 in the same fashion?

I’m fairly new to Corona, was doing the Google charts difficult?
My understanding is Google Charts are now pretty much unsupported, where YUI is still in active development, also the Yahoo library is a lot nicer.

I really want to use something like HighCharts JS as they have the best charting library I have seen, but not sure if it is worth the effort to force it into Corona over native. [import]uid: 160288 topic_id: 33309 reply_id: 132636[/import]

I can’t promise anything in regards to wrapping up the YUI 3 lib as I’ve never used that before and the GG libs are mainly created when we actually need them ourselves in our projects, the charting one being an exception to that as it’s just the Charts code I created a couple of years ago.
