So, What I have is a condition in a MySQL to show the first 1000 data points first and then the other 2000 datapoints after that in Highcharts.
if lastindex==0:
cur.execute("SELECT data,value FROM table where id<1001")
else:
cur.execute("SELECT data,value FROM table where id>1001 and id<3000")
data = cur.fetchall()
//python Code to fetch SQL data
Now what I am doing is that I am rendering that data into the Highcharts, the data is being rendered. but the problem arises that after showing the first 1000 data points, the Highcharts value starts from 0 and then shows the other 2000 points
the data is not displaying continuously as it should plot the send array data just after the end of the first data.
I think the Highcharts is being called Twice, What can I do to append the 2nd set of data to the first set without reloading the whole chart.
Here's a snip of my Highchart's js
Highcharts.chart("chartcontainer", {
chart: {
type: 'line',
animation: Highcharts.svg, // don't animate in old IE
marginRight: 10,
events: {
load: function() {
var series = this.series[0],
chart = this;
setInterval(function() {
//some logic regarding the chart
//..
v = {
y: y,
x: x
};
console.log("V value", v);
series.addSeries(v, false, true);
counter++;
localcounter++;
} else
{
oldcounter=counter;
flagToreload=1;
}
}, 1000/130);
setInterval(function() {
chart.redraw(false);
}, 100);
}
}
},
time: {
useUTC: false
},
title: {
text: 'Live random data'
},
xAxis: {
type: 'Value',
gridLineWidth: 1
},
yAxis: {
title: {
text: 'Value'
},
plotLines: [{
value: 0,
width: 1,
color: '#808080'
}],
gridLineWidth: 1
},
tooltip: {
headerFormat: '<b>{series.name}</b><br/>',
pointFormat: '{point.x:%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S}<br/>{point.y:.2f}'
},
exporting: {
enabled: false
},
series: [{
animation: false,
name: 'Random data',
data: (function() {
// generate an array of random data
var data = [],
time = counter,
i;
for (i = -1000; i <= 0; i += 1) {
data.push([
counter,
null
]);
}
return data;
}())
}]
});
What I want is just to append the event data rather than loading the whole chart.
How can I reload a particular Highchart value without reloading the whole chart ?
What do you think about updating the current series with new data, which will be an array of old data merged with the new one?
chart: {
events: {
load(){
let chart = this,
currentSeries = chart.series[0],
newData;
newData = [...currentSeries.userOptions.data, ...data1]
setTimeout(()=> {
chart.series[0].update({
data: newData
})
}, 5000)
}
}
},

I have this fiddle JSfiddle
Here is the reproduced code:
$(function () {
$('#container').highcharts({
chart: {
type: 'bar'
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['Heroku', 'Ruby','Lisp','Javascript','Python','PHP']
},
yAxis: {
categories: ['low','medium','high'],
title: {
text: 'expertise',
align: 'high'
},
labels: {
overflow: 'justify'
}
},
tooltip: {
valueSuffix: ' millions'
},
plotOptions: {
bar: {
dataLabels: {
enabled: true
}
}
},
series: [{
data: ['low','high','low','medium','medium']
}]
});
});
If you look at the fiddle the yAxis does not render and has a value of for every x category. I've been looking at the highcharts api, but I can't seem to get this right. The code makes sense to me but I'm obviously doing something wrong. Can someone point out why the YAxis is not displaying correctly?
As mentioned in my comment, you need to supply the numeric value of the category, not the category name.
In the case of categories, the numeric value is the array index.
Also, in your case, the way you are trying to plot the values, I would add an empty category at the beginning, otherwise your first category of low gets plotted as 0, which doesn't seem right.
So,
categories: ['low','medium','high']
Becomes
categories: ['','low','medium','high'],
And
data: ['low','high','low','medium','medium']
Becomes
data: [1,3,1,2,2]

Trick is to utilize the formatter function. You can use a similar formatter function on y-axis labels too if that's desired. Though it seems like you need it for data labels for this problem.
$(function() {
$('#container').highcharts({
chart: {
type: 'bar'
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['Heroku', 'Ruby', 'Lisp', 'Javascript', 'Python', 'PHP']
},
yAxis: {
title: {
text: 'expertise',
align: 'high'
},
labels: {
overflow: 'justify',
}
},
tooltip: {
valueSuffix: ' millions'
},
plotOptions: {
bar: {
dataLabels: {
enabled: true,
formatter: function() {
if (this.y == 0) {
return 'low'
} else if (this.y == 1) {
return 'medium'
} else {
console.log(this.y);
return 'high'
}
}
}
}
},
series: [{
data: [0, 2, 0, 1, 1]
}]
});
});
In my opinion, it is kinda unlikely for a line graph to have a y-axis category, since it speaks more of amount or value. In your case, "low, medium, and high" speaks of ranges, with which a certain value can be assigned to any of it.
Thus, Highcharts accepts series data in numeric form. But you can work around it by setting ['low', 'medium', 'high'] in the category attribute of yAxis, then setting series data as an array of number corresponding to the index of the category, i.e. [0,1,1,2,...] and tweaking the tooltip to display the category instead of the y value using formatter attribute.
Here is the code:
$(function() {
yCategories = ['low', 'medium', 'high'];
$('#container').highcharts({
title: {
text: 'Chart with category axes'
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['Heroku', 'Ruby','Lisp','Javascript','Python','PHP']
},
yAxis: {
categories: yCategories
},
tooltip: {
formatter: function() {
return this.point.category + ': ' + yCategories[this.y];
}
},
series: [{
data: [0, 1, 2, 2, 1]
}]
});
});
Here is a working example : JSFiddle
I have a Highchart bar graph (column type) which will show the data for each of the dates. Now it is getting the values through AJAX and date range
can be selected. Because of size limitations, I need to display the date labels in 5 day interval if the date range selected is more than 10 days.
That is all bars needs to be shown, but the interval for labels should be in 5 days interval if the date range is more than 10 days. If it is 10 days or lower, it should show all the dates.
My graph config is like the following :
var chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
credits: {
enabled: false
},
legend: {
align: 'right',
verticalAlign: 'top',
layout: 'vertical',
x: 20,
y: 10
},
chart: {
renderTo: 'id_name',
type: 'column'
},
xAxis: {
categories: dates,
crosshairs: true
},
yAxis: {
title: {
text: 'Y Axis Title'
}
},
colors: ['#1A7BB9', '#18A689', '#21B9BB', '#F7A54A', '#EC4758'],
title: {
text: 'My title goes here'
},
subtitle: {
text: 'my subtitle goes here'
},
series: PHP formatted data goes here
});
I'm not sure about the interval (every fifth label should be displayed? Or you want to compare time-range to determine that?), but in general you have two solutions:
easier one: disable dataLabels by default (series.dataLabels.enabled = false) but enable that for a specific points, for example:
series: [{
data: [{
x: timestamp_1,
y: timestamp_1,
dataLabels: {
enabled: true
}
}, [timestamp_2, value_2], [timestamp_3, value_3], ... , {
x: timestamp_N,
y: timestamp_N,
dataLabels: {
enabled: true
}
}]
}]
harder one: wrap drawDataLabels method, and remove unnecessary labels:
(function (H) {
H.wrap(H.seriesTypes.column.prototype, 'drawDataLabels', function (p) {
var step = H.pick(this.options.dataLabels.step, 0),
iterator = 0;
p.call(this);
if(step) {
H.each(this.points, function (point) {
if (point.dataLabel) {
if (iterator % step !== 0) {
point.dataLabel = point.dataLabel.destroy();
}
iterator ++;
}
});
}
});
})(Highcharts)

I want to dynamically update a hightstock Chart with Points from Ajax Calls. For Example i use setInterval(addPoints,3000); How can i develope the code, that the highstock Charts display an definied time, e.g. 1 Minute, and the Chart beginn to draw from the Left without this "time poping and squeezing?

Please help
The "popping" is the data being added and the line connecting the last point to the new point and the yAxis re-scaling. To minimize this I would set the yAxis.max to a value that is the maximum possible. Secondly I would look at the animation and see which kind you want to use when it adds a new point.
To handle the "sqeezing" you can set your "viewable" range and your adding of points such that when you add a new point the last point on the left falls out of the viewable area.
You can also call setExtremes to set range on the xAxis.
I am trying to prepare a Tornado Chart using the column chart in Highcharts. Here is my fiddle.
My current code is:
$('#container').highcharts({
chart: {
type: 'columnrange',
inverted: true
},
title: {
text: 'Net Sales'
},
subtitle: {
text: 'MM $'
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['Annual Revenue', 'Number of Years', 'Annual Costs']
},
yAxis: {
title: {
text: 'MM $'
}
},
plotOptions: {
columnrange: {
dataLabels: {
enabled: true,
formatter: function () {
return this.y;
}
}
},
scatter:{
marker:{
symbol:'line',
lineWidth:11,
radius:8,
lineColor:'#f00'
}
}
},
legend: {
enabled: false
},
series: [{
name: 'Temperatures',
data: [
[12.15, 46.86],
[15.45, 42.28],
[27.77, 31.24]
]
},
{
name:'Base',type: 'scatter',data:[120],
}]
});
The problem is that the last series (Annual Costs) does not show, as it is in reversed order. Also, I'd like the Tornado Chart to look more like this:
Note that the labels in this chart are different from the actual values plotted. Also note that the bar in the center - in the example code, there would be a vertical line at 29.5. I would also like to support a combined uncertainty bar like the one at the bottom. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Your last bat is not showing, because first number is lower than second, see: http://jsfiddle.net/kErPt/1/
If you want to display another values at labels, then add that info first. Example:
data: [{
low: 12,
high: 15,
lowLabel: 35,
highLabel: 46
}, {
low: 2,
high: 35,
lowLabel: 15,
highLabel: 26
} ... ]
And then use dataLabels.formatter for series.
To add vertical line use plotLines.
I'm not sure what is the last bar called 'combined uncertainty'.
I've used Highcharts with separate series (thanks jlbriggs) to create a Tornado Chart: http://jsfiddle.net/uRjBp/
var baseValue = 29.5;
var outputTitle = "Net Sales";
var chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo:'container',
//type:'column'
//type:'area'
//type:'scatter'
//type:'bubble'
},
credits: {},
exporting: {},
legend: {},
title: {
text: outputTitle
},
subtitle: {
text: "MM $"
},
tooltip: {
formatter: function() {
var msg = "";
var index = this.series.chart.xAxis[0].categories.indexOf(this.x);
var low = round(this.series.chart.series[0].data[index].y+baseValue);
var high = round(this.series.chart.series[1].data[index].y+baseValue);
if (this.x === "Combined Uncertainty") {
msg = "Combined Uncertainty in "+outputTitle+": "+low+" to "+high;
} else {
var lowLabel = this.series.chart.series[0].data[index].label;
var highLabel = this.series.chart.series[1].data[index].label;
msg = '<b>'+outputTitle+'</b> goes from '+ low +' to '+ high+'<br/> when '+this.x +
' goes from <br/> '+lowLabel+" to "+highLabel;
}
return msg;
}
},
plotOptions: {
series: {
dataLabels: {
enabled: true,
formatter: function () {
var index = this.series.chart.xAxis[0].categories.indexOf(this.x);
if (this.series.userOptions.labels === undefined) {
return this.y+baseValue;
}
return this.key === "Combined Uncertainty" ? "":this.series.userOptions.labels[index];
}
}
}
},
xAxis: {
title: {
text: 'Factor'
},
allowDecimals:false,
categories: ['Annual Revenue', 'Number of Years', 'Annual Costs', 'Combined Uncertainty']
},
yAxis: {
title: {
text: 'MM $'
},
labels: {
formatter:function() {
return this.value+baseValue;
}
}
},
series:[{
name: 'Low',
grouping:false,
type:'bar',
data:[{y:12.15-baseValue, label:10},{y:15.45-baseValue, label:1},{y:31.25-baseValue, label:2},{y:12.15-baseValue, color:'#99CCFF', label: ""}],
labels:[10,1,2,]
},{
name: 'High',
grouping:false,
type:'bar',
data:[{y:46.86-baseValue, label:30},{y:42.28-baseValue, label:3},{y:27.77-baseValue, label:4},{y:46.86-baseValue, color:'#99CCFF', label:""}],
labels:[30,3,4,]
},
{
name: 'Median',
type: 'scatter',
data: [null,null, null,27-baseValue],
marker: {
lineWidth: 2,
lineColor: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[3],
fillColor: 'white'
}
}]
});
function round(num) {
return Math.round(num*100)/100;
}
usually, this kind of chart is done using a separate series for the left and right portions
One way to do this is by setting one set of data as negative numbers, and then using the formatters to make the axis labels, datalabels, and tooltips display the absolute values
example:
http://jsfiddle.net/jlbriggs/yPLVP/68/
UPDATE:
to show a line as in your original chart, you can extend the marker symbols to include a line type, and use a scatter series to draw that point:
http://jsfiddle.net/jlbriggs/yPLVP/69/
If you don't want to have the extra code for the line marker type, you could use any of the other existing marker symbols for the scatter series.
