Java-chartjs provides you with a way to configure and use ChartJs from Java and Java-based web frameworks such as Apache Wicket.
In Java:
SimpleChartJsConfigBuilder<LocalDate, Integer> config =
SimpleChartJsConfigBuilder.lineChart();
SortedMap<LocalDate, Integer> dataPoints = createUserCountMap();
config.data()
.addDataset()
.withDataPoints(dataPoints)
.withLabel("activeUsers")
.withBorderColor(ChartJsRGBAColor.BLUE);
LocalDate smallestXValue = dataPoints.firstKey();
SimpleChartJsOptionsBuilder<LocalDate, Integer> optionsBuilder = config.options();
optionsBuilder.withResponsive(true);
optionsBuilder.hoverConfig().withIntersect(true).withMode(ChartJsInteractionMode.NEAREST);
optionsBuilder.tooltipConfig().withIntersect(false).withMode(ChartJsInteractionMode.INDEX);
SimpleChartJsLocalDateAxisConfigBuilder xAxisBuilder =
optionsBuilder.scalesConfig().withLocalDateXAxisConfig();
xAxisBuilder.withDisplay(true).labelConfig().withDisplay(true).withLabelString("days");
xAxisBuilder.tickConfig().withForcedMinimum(smallestXValue);
SimpleChartJsLinearAxisConfigBuilder yAxisBuilder =
optionsBuilder.scalesConfig().withLinearYAxisConfig();
yAxisBuilder.withDisplay(true).labelConfig().withDisplay(true).withLabelString(
"active users");
String chartJsConfigAsJson = ChartJsObjectMapperFactory.createObjectMapper(true).writeValueAsString(config.build());In HTML/Javascript
var ctx = document.getElementById('graphPanel').getContext('2d');
new Chart(ctx, chartJsConfigAsJson);If you use Wicket, you can go straight from building the config to displaying it in the provided SimpleGraphPanel:
public GraphPage()
{
add(new SimpleGraphPanel("graphPanel", getChartJsConfigModel(), Model.of("My graph")));
}Java-chartjs is available from Maven Central. Simply add the relevant artifacts to your dependencies.
<dependency>
<groupId>nl.crashdata.java-chartjs</groupId>
<artifactId>java-chartjs-data</artifactId>
<version>0.90</version>
</dependency>java-chartjs-data contains a set of POJOs annotated with Jackson annotations for easy serialization.
It also contains a set of builders to help in creating a full ChartJsConfig.
java-chartjs-serialization contains helper code for easy serialization of config based on java-chartjs-data classes to a JSON config object for chartjs.
java-chartjs-wicket contains a simple wicket SimpleGraphPanel, as well as up-to-date ChartJs and moment.js libraries and assorted ResourceReferences.
