I am using .net core 2.0 web socket to generate some data. I want to send the data to this chart and draw the chart.
In the code below I want to show the live data without default values. I tried a lot but I wasn't successful. If I remove default value from 'series', chart will disappear. IS that possible to draw this chart on the fly?
Highcharts.setOptions({
global: {
useUTC: false
}});
Highcharts.stockChart('container', {
chart: {
events: {
load: function () {
// set up the updating of the chart each second
var series = this.series[0];
setInterval(function () {
var x = (new Date()).getTime(), // current time
y = Math.round(Math.random() * 100);
series.addPoint([x, y], true, true);
}, 1000);
}
}
},
rangeSelector: {
buttons: [{
count: 1,
type: 'minute',
text: '1M'
}, {
count: 5,
type: 'minute',
text: '5M'
}, {
type: 'all',
text: 'All'
}],
inputEnabled: false,
selected: 0
},
title: {
text: 'Live random data'
},
exporting: {
enabled: false
},
series: [{
name: 'Random data',
data: (function () {
// generate an array of random data
var data = [],
time = (new Date()).getTime(),
i;
for (i = -999; i <= 0; i += 1) {
data.push([
time + i * 1000,
Math.round(Math.random() * 100)
]);
}
return data;
}())
}]});
Finally I could find the solution. I needed to add xAxis property to my chart. By adding the code below, problem solved. Now it starts from current time.
xAxis: {
type: 'datetime',
tickPixelInterval: null,
maxZoom: 10 * 1000,
min: new Date().getTime()
}

So I have a project where I am trying to update chart. in which 100 points to be displayed in each second.
For that I am trying this example from the Highcharts.
But the chart stops responding to such event.
The code:
jsfiddle
Highcharts.chart('container', {
chart: {
type: 'spline',
animation: Highcharts.svg, // don't animate in old IE
marginRight: 10,
events: {
load: function () {
// set up the updating of the chart each second
var series = this.series[0];
setInterval(function () {
var x = (new Date()).getTime(), // current time
y = Math.random();
series.addPoint([x, y], true, true);
}, 10);
}
}
},
time: {
useUTC: false
},
title: {
text: 'Live random data'
},
xAxis: {
type: 'datetime',
tickPixelInterval: 150
},
yAxis: {
title: {
text: 'Value'
},
plotLines: [{
value: 0,
width: 1,
color: '#808080'
}]
},
tooltip: {
headerFormat: '<b>{series.name}</b><br/>',
pointFormat: '{point.x:%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S}<br/>{point.y:.2f}'
},
legend: {
enabled: false
},
exporting: {
enabled: false
},
series: [{
name: 'Random data',
data: (function () {
// generate an array of random data
var data = [],
time = (new Date()).getTime(),
i;
for (i = -19; i <= 0; i += 1) {
data.push({
x: time + i * 1000,
y: Math.random()
});
}
return data;
}())
}]
});
You can set redraw parameter in addPoint method to false and call chart.redraw() at longer intervals:
chart: {
...,
events: {
load: function() {
// set up the updating of the chart each second
var series = this.series[0],
chart = this;
setInterval(function() {
var x = (new Date()).getTime(), // current time
y = Math.random();
series.addPoint([x, y], false, true);
}, 10);
setInterval(function() {
chart.redraw();
}, 500);
}
}
}

API Reference:
https://api.highcharts.com/class-reference/Highcharts.Series#addPoint
https://api.highcharts.com/class-reference/Highcharts.Chart#redraw
In the combination of series with and without dynamic data,the series with dynamic data can be easily shifted but where as the other series which are not dynamic do not get shifted out completely.
I have reproduced the issue in the following link: https://jsfiddle.net/8uxepk21/
Here as you can see there are two series. The series with static data appears to be shifting but if you increase the size of the rang-selector,then the series with static data do not get shifted out of the chart completely but still stays unlike the other series.
Is there any option to shift data explicitly without using series.addpoint() method.
I have used series.data[0].remove() and it obviously works fine but when a new data has to arrive for the same series after some time,this remove() method would remove the arriving point aswell. Further if I provide any condition for the maximum points to be in series while shifting,even then it will cause performance issue.
EXPECTED RESULT: Both the series data have to be shifted completely irrespective of the data being static or dynamic.

To achieve it you can add points with null values to the second series. Check the code and demo posted below.
Code:
chart: {
events: {
load: function() {
var chart = this,
series1 = chart.series[0],
series2 = chart.series[1],
x, y;
setInterval(function() {
x = (new Date()).getTime();
y = Math.round(Math.random() * 100);
series1.addPoint([x, y], false, true);
series2.addPoint([x, null], false, true);
chart.redraw();
}, 2000);
}
}
}

Expected behaviour
I hope to let the chart also dynamic update when I drag scrollbar and it is not in left boundary or right boundary.
Thanks for your help.
Actual behaviour
It is a Stationary state when I selected a range via scrollbar and it is not in left boundary or right boundary

I'm using highcharts and am I trying to develop a chart, which can handle live data.
Here is my first try:
var data = [],
chart_interval = undefined;
Highcharts.setOptions({
global: {
useUTC: false
}
});
function addRandomData(dataSet, frequency, yMax, count) {
for (var i = 1; i <= count; i++) {
var x = new Date((new Date()).getTime() + i * frequency),
y = Math.random() * yMax;
dataSet.push({
x: x,
y: y
});
}
return dataSet;
}
function addDataInterval(dataSet, frequency, yMax) {
return setInterval(function() {
var x = new Date(dataSet[dataSet.length - 1].x.getTime() + frequency),
y = Math.random() * yMax;
dataSet.push({
x: x,
y: y
});
}, frequency);
}
// Parameters: dataSet, frequency, yMax, count
addRandomData(data, 1000, 10000, 60);
// Parameters: dataSet, frequency, yMax
addDataInterval(data, 500, 10000);
// Create the chart
Highcharts.stockChart('container', {
chart: {
zoomType: 'x',
events: {
load: function() {
// set up the updating of the chart each second
var series = this.series[0];
setInterval(function() {
series.update({
data: data
}, true);
}, 1000);
}
}
},
rangeSelector: {
buttons: [{
count: 1,
type: 'minute',
text: '1M'
}, {
count: 5,
type: 'minute',

text: 'All'
}],

Problem: If already existing data has different time intervals, such as the newly generated data, the freely selectable zoom don't work.
Have I somewhere make mistake or is this a bug of highcharts?
Highcharts wants time values as timestamps in milliseconds instead of Date objects:
What format does the highcharts js library accept for dates?
Highcharts X-Axis time from JS date
Change how you generate your x values, and the zooming magically starts working again:
var x = (new Date()).getTime() + i * frequency,
...
var x = dataSet[dataSet.length - 1].x + frequency,

I want to use Highcharts graph and update y axis dynamically. Actually I want to update nsw, Tas, ACT every 5 sec. How do I do it ?
Here is my code.
$(function () {
$('#container').highcharts({
title: {
text: 'Histogram',
x: -20 // center
},
subtitle: {
text: 'Source: www.trove.com',
x: -20
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['NSW', 'Tas', 'ACT','QLD','VIC','SA','WA']
},
yAxis: {
title: {
text: 'Hits'
},
plotLines: [{
value: 0,
width: 1,
color: '#808080'
}]
},
tooltip: {
valueSuffix: '°C'
},
legend: {
layout: 'vertical',
align: 'right',
verticalAlign: 'middle',
borderWidth: 0
},
series: [{
name: 'States',
data: [nsw, Tas, ACT,qld,vic,sa,wa]
}]
});
});
});
In the Documentation you can find an example from Highcharts in jsfiddle. Check it out http://jsfiddle.net/gh/get/jquery/1.9.1/highslide-software/highcharts.com/tree/master/samples/highcharts/demo/dynamic-update/. In the example every second a new point will be added. Here comes the relevant code part:
chart: {
type: 'spline',
animation: Highcharts.svg, // don't animate in old IE
marginRight: 10,
events: {
load: function () {
// set up the updating of the chart each second
var series = this.series[0];
setInterval(function () {
var x = (new Date()).getTime(), // current time
y = Math.random();
series.addPoint([x, y], true, true);
}, 1000);
}
}
},
`
The easiest way to do it would be to use the javascript function "setInterval()" to call it.
Here is a link where you can find a way to do it :
http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_timing.asp
If you are not really good at javascript, you might need this declaration of functions : var functionName = function() {} vs function functionName() {}
Use:
events: {
load: function () {
// set up the updating of the chart each second
var series = this.series[0];
setInterval(function () {
var x = (new Date()).getTime(), // current time
y = Math.random(),
l = series.data.length;
for(var i = 0; i < l; i++) {
series.data[i].update({
y: getHits(i) // or something else
});
}
}, 5000); // 5 seconds
}
}
Where index is index (count from 0) of nsw/Tas/ACT in data array. (for nsw = 0, for Tas = 1 etc.)
