Create Pie chart for each Json object

I have one Json with multiple array and foreach array I want to create Pie chart, but I don't know how to do it.
This is the array thet I have. And this is what I tried :
function Pie() {
$.getJSON("/Admin/Attivita/OreOggi", function (data) {
console.log(data);
var oreTecico = [];
var oreTecico = [];
var oreMalatia = [];
var oreStraordinario = [];
var oreInfortunio = [];
var oreFerie = [];
for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
nomeTecnico.push(data[i].nome);
oreTecico.push(data[i].odinario);
oreMalatia.push(data[i].malatia);
oreStraordinario.push(data[i].straordinario);
oreInfortunio.push(data[i].infortunio);
oreFerie.push(data[i].ferie);
};
// Build the chart
Highcharts.chart('zdravko', {
chart: {
plotBackgroundColor: null,
plotBorderWidth: null,
plotShadow: false,
type: 'pie'
},
title: {
text: 'Ore segnate oggi'
},
tooltip: {
pointFormat: '<b>{point.name}</b>: {point.y:.1f} h.'
},
accessibility: {
point: {
valueSuffix: '%'
}
},
plotOptions: {
pie: {
allowPointSelect: true,
cursor: 'pointer',
dataLabels: {
enabled: false
},
showInLegend: true
}
},
series: [{
name: nomeTecnico[0],
colorByPoint: true,
data: [{
name: '',
y:0,
sliced: true,
selected: true
}, {
name: 'Odinario',
y: oreTecico[0]
}, {
name: 'Malatia',
y: oreMalatia[0]
}, {
name: 'Straordinario',
y: oreStraordinario[0]
}, {
name: 'Infortunio',
y: oreInfortunio[0]
}, {
name: 'Ferie',
y: oreFerie[0]
}]
}]
});
});
}
It shows only the last "data". I want to make fo each array one pie. If i have 100 arrays I want 100 pies.
UPDATE:
I added this :
data.forEach(function (el) {
var chartData = [el.data1, el.data2];
var chartContainer = document.createElement('div');
document.getElementById('zdravko').append(chartContainer);
Highcharts.chart(chartContainer, {
series: [{
type: 'pie',
data: chartData
}]
});
});
The chartData is array of undefined objects.
Is it possible to make for or foreach inside Highcharts?

You need to use the Highcharts.chart method in a loop, for example:
var data = [{
data1: 12,
data2: 25
}, {
data1: 67,
data2: 11
}];
data.forEach(function(el) {
var chartData = [el.data1, el.data2];
var chartContainer = document.createElement('div');
document.getElementById('container').append(chartContainer);
Highcharts.chart(chartContainer, {
series: [{
type: 'pie',
data: chartData
}]
});
});

Cant display data from JSON in canvasjs

hi and sorry for silly question i miss some part of code and cant figure it out, I did from this lesson https://canvasjs.com/javascript-charts/json-data-api-ajax-chart/ and when I'm editing code to put my json api and values nothing happens....(values from json are telemetry only 'timestamp' and 'cpu' value)
my code is :
window.onload = function() {
var dataPoints = [];
var cpuPoints = [];
var chart = new CanvasJS.Chart("chartContainer", {
animationEnabled: true,
theme: "light2",
title: {
text: "consume timeline"
},
axisY: {
title: "cpu use",
titleFontSize: 24,
},
data: [{
type: "column",
yValueFormatString: "#,### Units",
dataPoints: dataPoints
}]
});
function addData(data) {
for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
dataPoints.push({
x: new Date(data[i].timestamp),
y: data[i].cpu
});
}
chart.render();
}
$.getJSON("http://192.168.13.60:12345/api/metric/cpu", addData);
}
please can somebody help me figure it out. I think i miss some variable to declare

Highcharts data value from variable array string

Got a column called ChartData in database with a string value of 4,11,25,36,50. Trying to assign this value to a hidden variable so JS can read the value of this and put this value in the data option using high charts. I have console.log the variable and looks like its appearing as a string rather than an array when being parsed across the server side to the client side.
C# code
string str = reader["ChartData"].ToString();
string[] strList = str.Split(','); //seperate the hobbies by comma
// convert it in json
dataStr = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(strList, Formatting.None);
hiddenvariable.Value = dataStr;
JS code:
function CreateBoxPlot() {
var hv = $('#hiddenvariable').val();
alert(hv); //["40","61","65","74","77"]
var chart;
var titleText = 'Test Chart Title';
var subTitleText = 'Test Chart Subtitle';
var type = 'boxplot';
var data = hv;
console.log(data); //["40","61","65","74","77"]
$(function () {
$('#container').highcharts({
chart: { type: type, inverted: true },
title: { text: titleText },
subtitle: { text: subTitleText },
legend: { enabled: false },
tooltip: {
shared: true,
crosshairs: true
},
plotOptions: {
series: {
pointWidth: 50
}
},
xAxis: {
visible: false
},
yAxis: {
visible: true,
title: {
text: 'Values'
},
plotLines: [{
value: 80,
color: 'red',
width: 2
}]
}
});
chart = $('#container').highcharts();
chart.addSeries({ data: data });
});
}
However when i hardcode data to the below value this works. How do i format this correctly when its parsed over to the JS side:
var data = [[40,61,65,74,77]]

You have to convert the string '["40","61","65","74","77"]' to js array with numbers. To make it work on each browser you can follow this approach:
Parse the string to js array using JSON.parse()
Loop through the created array and convert each element to number:
var json = '["40","61","65","74","77"]',
dataString = JSON.parse(json),
data = [],
i;
for (i = 0; i < dataString.length; i++) {
data[i] = +dataString[i];
}
Code:
$(function() {
var json = '["40","61","65","74","77"]',
dataString = JSON.parse(json),
data = [],
i;
for (i = 0; i < dataString.length; i++) {
data[i] = +dataString[i];
}
$('#container').highcharts({
chart: {
inverted: true
},
legend: {
enabled: false
},
tooltip: {
shared: true,
crosshairs: true
},
plotOptions: {
series: {
pointWidth: 50
}
},
xAxis: {
visible: false
},
yAxis: {
visible: true,
title: {
text: 'Values'
},
plotLines: [{
value: 80,
color: 'red',
width: 2
}]
}
});
chart = $('#container').highcharts();
chart.addSeries({
data: data
});
});

Taking reference from the comments, add this to your code and then try.
var data = hv.map(function (element) {
return +element;
});

Dynamically load in series HighCharts

I am trying to dynamically load in a number of series, depending on projects chosen by the user. I am using Laravel 5.2, PHP 5.6 and HighCharts.
I have managed to load in one JSON file, which is generated when the user selects projects. But I would like it if the JavaScript could parse the different series from the JSON file and dynamically load this into the series.
This is the code which I am using:
$(function () {
// Set up the chart
var processed_json = new Array();
$.getJSON('/uploads/test.json', function(data) {
for (i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
processed_json.push([data[i].key, data[i].value]);
}
var chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo: 'container',
type: 'column',
options3d: {
enabled: true,
alpha: 0,
beta: 0,
depth: 0,
viewDistance: 25
}
},
title: {
text: 'Grades'
},
subtitle: {
text: 'Dataset'
},
plotOptions: {
column: {
depth: 0
}
},
series: [{
name: 'Grades',
data: processed_json
}],
credits: {
enabled: false
}
});
function showValues() {
$('#alpha-value').html(chart.options.chart.options3d.alpha);
$('#beta-value').html(chart.options.chart.options3d.beta);
$('#depth-value').html(chart.options.chart.options3d.depth);
}
// Activate the sliders
$('#sliders input').on('input change', function () {
chart.options.chart.options3d[this.id] = this.value;
showValues();
chart.redraw(false);
});
showValues();
});
});
My JSON is formatted like:
[{"key":"Math","value":6},{"key":"Biology","value":"8"},{"key":"English","value":"7"},{"key":"Gym","value":"4"}]
So I would like to have more JSONs like so, in one file to be parsed in the Javascript and be loaded in into the series.
Thank you!
EDIT
thanks for your reply. I have edited my code:
$(function () {
var processed_json = new Array();
var options = {
chart: {
renderTo: 'container',
type: 'column',
options3d: {
enabled: true,
alpha: 0,
beta: 0,
depth: 0,
viewDistance: 25
}
},
title: {
text: 'Grades'
},
subtitle: {
text: 'Dataset'
},
plotOptions: {
column: {
depth: 0
}
},
series: [{
}],
credits: {
enabled: false
}
};
$.getJSON('/uploads/test.json', function(data) {
for (i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
processed_json.push([data[i].key, data[i].value]);
}
});
options.series[0].remove();
options.series[0].setData = {
name: 'Grades',
data: processed_json
}
var chart = new Highcharts.Chart(options);
chart.redraw(true);
function showValues() {
$('#alpha-value').html(chart.options.chart.options3d.alpha);
$('#beta-value').html(chart.options.chart.options3d.beta);
$('#depth-value').html(chart.options.chart.options3d.depth);
}
// Activate the sliders
$('#sliders input').on('input change', function () {
chart.options.chart.options3d[this.id] = this.value;
showValues();
chart.redraw(false);
});
showValues();
});
But nothing is displayed anymore and the following error is given
TypeError: options.series[0].remove is not a function
I have also tried
var chart = new Highcharts.Chart(options);
chart.series[0].remove();
chart.series[0].setData = {
name: 'Grades',
data: processed_json
}
chart.redraw(true);
But this gives:
TypeError: Cannot set property 'setData' of undefined

I think highcharts has a method chart.addSeries for adding a new series. If you want to replace the current series with a new series, you can try removing first the current series using chart.series[0].remove( ) then add the new series with chart.addSeries. The parameter for the chart.addSeries can be an object like your
{
name: 'Grades',
data: processed_json
}

Then, define method with load data.. example:
function(chart) {
$.each(chart.series, function(i, v){
chart.series[i].remove(true);
});
chart.addSeries({your_data}, true);
}
check http://api.highcharts.com/highcharts/Chart.addSeries/Chart.addSeries
In my webapp, i use 10 of 15 types of graphs highchart and all dynamically load and work fine :) Highcharts is awesome.

File loading a Csv file into highcharts

I'm plotting Csv column data in highcharts. Instead of the:
$.get('5.csv', function(data)
I want input a local desktop Csv file using:
function handleFileSelect(evt) {
var files = evt.target.files; // FileList object
My current Javascript code is below :
var options = {
chart: {
renderTo: 'container',
defaultSeriesType: 'line'
},
title: {
text: 'Test'
},
xAxis: {
categories: []
},
yAxis: {
title: {
text: 'Units',
}
},
series: []
};
// $.get('5.csv', function(data) {
var file = event.target.file;
var reader = new FileReader();
var txt=reader.readAsText(file);
var lines = txt.split('\n');
var c = [], d = [];
$.each(lines, function(lineNo, line) {
if(lineNo > 0 ){
var items = line.split(',');
var strTemp = items[0];
c = [parseFloat(items[0]), parseFloat(items[1])];
d.push(c);
console.log(c);
}
});
options.xAxis.categories = c;
options.series = [{
data: d
}];
chart = new Highcharts.Chart(options);
});
How would I go about doing this ? I want to upload a Csv file from a local desktop machine. How do I link the File Reader upload of the file to highcharts to plot, instead of using the $.get(5.csv', function(data) { ? Or am I better using jquery-csv (https://github.com/evanplaice/jquery-csv). I know there are browser security issues. My file is a 3 column Csv with a one line header, column 1 is the x-axis, 2 is the y-axis, 3 will be the error bar, which I haven't yet implemented:
Q,I,E
0.009,2.40E-01,5.67E-02
0.011,2.13E-01,3.83E-02
0.013,2.82E-01,2.28E-02
etc ....

This works now upload by File API

Due to security reasons you can't load a file directly on the client-side
To do this you need to use the HTML5 File API which will give the user a file dialog to select the file.
If you plan to use jquery-csv here's an example that demonstrates how to do that.
File Handling Demo
I'm biased but I say use jquery-csv to parse the data, trying to write a CSV parser comes with a lot of nasty edge cases.

As an alternative, if jquery-csv doesn't meet your needs, PapaParse is very good too.
