looker custom visualization using echarts

Am creating custom visualization and am using echarts for the visualization.
I have a source and everything but i am unable to make it work. Can anyone help in this how to achieve the below fiddle in looker custom visualization
import * as echarts from 'echarts';
var ROOT_PATH = 'https://echarts.apache.org/examples';
var chartDom = document.getElementById('main');
var myChart = echarts.init(chartDom);
var option;
myChart.showLoading();
$.getJSON(ROOT_PATH + '/data/asset/data/les-miserables.json', function (graph) {
myChart.hideLoading();
graph.nodes.forEach(function (node) {
node.label = {
show: node.symbolSize > 30
};
});
option = {
title: {
text: 'Les Miserables',
subtext: 'Default layout',
top: 'bottom',
left: 'right'
},
tooltip: {},
legend: [{
// selectedMode: 'single',
data: graph.categories.map(function (a) {
return a.name;
})
}],
animationDuration: 1500,
animationEasingUpdate: 'quinticInOut',
series: [
{
name: 'Les Miserables',
type: 'graph',
layout: 'none',
data: graph.nodes,
links: graph.links,
categories: graph.categories,
roam: true,
label: {
position: 'right',
formatter: '{b}'
},
lineStyle: {
color: 'source',
curveness: 0.3
},
emphasis: {
focus: 'adjacency',
lineStyle: {
width: 10
}
}
}
]
};
myChart.setOption(option);
});
option && myChart.setOption(option);
demo url
in the above snippet, they are passing json but in my requirement i need to fetch from selected dimensions or measures and I need to convert into looker custom viz
looker.plugins.visualizations.add({
});
Please do let me know any suggestions on this

Inside the object you pass to looker.plugins.visualizations.add, the updateAsync method ( that you will use to generate the echart options and series ) is async, and it passes you a done callback to be called when you are ready.
So you can call your json, process the data and then done()

control edge rendering of a network in vis.js

I am working on a control flow graph visualizer using vis.js. it's like the example provided by the maintainesr here.
the following image shows the result:
I want control the way edges are drawn: out arrows start from the bottom and in arrows end at the top of the node. is there a way to have such behavior in vis.js? also can I prevent edges from crossing nodes?
this is my options:
var opts = {
autoResize: true,
height: '100%',
width: '100%',
locale: 'en',
edges: {
arrows: { to: {enabled: true}},
smooth: { enabled: true}
},
nodes: {
font: {'face': 'monospace', 'align': 'left'}
},
layout: {
improvedLayout:true,
hierarchical: {
enabled: true,
sortMethod: "directed",
direction: "UD",
nodeSpacing: 200,
levelSeparation: 200,
}
},
physics: {
hierarchicalRepulsion: {
nodeDistance: 300
}
}
};
var network = new vis.Network(this.domRoot.find(".graph-placeholder")[0],
this.defaultCfgOuput, opts);

How to customize annotation's layout in HighCharts

I have been using HighCharts extensively for one of my project. Recently I started using Annotation.js along with it.
ALthough, the library works well but I can't configure its usage at all. The link here provides options but they are not working for me
My issues:
I have multiple charts on a page. As soon as I use annotation.js , each of them shows annotation. how do I show them on desired charts. I tried
annotations :[{ enabledButtons : false}]
and
annotationOptions :{ enabledButtons : false}
Both of them had no affect.
2.I want to display the pallette (containing icons like square, circle etc..) at top-right.
I used xValue, yValue attribute,
I used x, y attribute,
I used 'anchorX and anchorY` attribute.
None of the above works for me.
I want just to show the text icon. How can I hide other icons (line, square and circle). Didn't get any way to try for this one.
Am I missing something here. Kindly suggest. My basic way of using chart config is as below:
chart: {
type: chartData.Type.toLowerCase()
//annotations: [],
},
annotationsOptions: {
xValue: 234,
yValue:12
},
title: {
text: chartData.xTitle ? chartData.xTitle : ""
},
xAxis: {
categories: chartData.Categories
},
yAxis: {
allowDecimals: false,
min: 0,
title: {
text: chartData.yTitle ? chartData.yTitle : ""
},
plotLines: [{
value: 0,
width: 1,
color: "#808080"
}]
},
annotations: [{
xValue: 40,
yValue: 15
}],
plotOptions: {
line: {
marker: {
enabled: true
}
}
},
series: chartData['Series'][opt] ? chartData['Series'][opt] : chartData['Series'][opt.replace(/-|\s/g, "")],
}
I have tried annotations inside charts object as well.

You should be able to hide annotations buttons using:
annotationsOptions: {
enabledButtons: false
},
You can use annotationsOptions.buttons for changing the buttons you would like to display. Here you can see the code that will show only text butotn:
annotationsOptions: {
buttons: [{
annotationEvents: {
step: function() {}, // to be called during mouse drag for new annotation
stop: function(e) {
var ann = this,
chart = ann.chart,
index = chart.annotationInputIndex = chart.annotationInputIndex ? chart.annotationInputIndex : 1,
input = document.createElement('span'),
button;
input.innerHTML = '<input type="text" class="annotation-' + index + '" placeholder="Add text"><button class=""> Done </button>';
input.style.position = 'absolute';
input.style.left = e.pageX + 'px';
input.style.top = e.pageY + 'px';
document.body.appendChild(input);
input.querySelectorAll('input')[0].focus();
button = input.querySelectorAll('button')[0];
button.onclick = function() {
var parent = this.parentNode;
ann.update({
title: {
text: parent.querySelectorAll('input')[0].value
}
});
parent.parentNode.removeChild(parent);
};
chart.annotationInputIndex++;
} // to be called after mouse up / release
},
annotation: { // standard annotation options, used for new annotation
anchorX: 'left',
anchorY: 'top',
xAxis: 0,
yAxis: 0,
shape: {
// type: 'text'
}
},
symbol: { // button symbol options
shape: 'text', // shape, taken from Highcharts.symbols
size: 12,
style: {
'stroke-width': 2,
'stroke': 'black',
fill: 'red',
zIndex: 121
}
},
style: { // buton style itself
fill: 'black',
stroke: 'blue',
strokeWidth: 2,
},
size: 12, // buton size
states: { // states for button
selected: {
fill: '#9BD'
},
hover: {
fill: '#9BD'
}
}
}]
}
Here you can find an example how it may work: http://jsfiddle.net/7m3Mr/261/
You can move your buttons using:
annotationsOptions: {
buttonsOffsets: [0, -50],
},
Here you can find demo showing how it may work:

Open Highcharts in modal window

I'm working on a site where I use Highcharts quite heavily for presenting data in charts. I want to user to be able to "zoom" each chart into a modal window for better readability.
I know how to manipulate the chart with its API, but I'm not quite sure how I can clone the chart and refer to the new chart with an variable?
I've done alot of searching, and all I've found is how to open in modal window with Highcharts own modal library, but I'm using a modal library called Lightview.

I have got this working using jQuery modal panel.
On click of original chart I am calling a javascript function popupGraph which will create a new highchart by merging the options of the existing highchart. On close event of modalPanel I am destroying the highchart that we have created for popup.
Hope this helps..
Code for actual chart that I show in small size.
trackingChart = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo: 'container',
type: 'column',
events: {
load: loadChart,
click: function() {
popUpGraph(this);
}
}
},
xAxis: {
categories: []
},
yAxis: {
min: 0,
},
legend: {
layout: 'horizontal',
backgroundColor: '#FFFFFF',
align: 'center',
verticalAlign: 'bottom',
x: 10,
y: 0,
floating: false,
shadow: true
},
tooltip: {
formatter: function() {
return ''+
this.x +': '+ this.y +' points';
}
},
plotOptions: {
column: {
pointPadding: 0,
borderWidth: 0
}
},
exporting: {
enabled: false
},
series: [{
data: []
}, {
data: []
}]
});
Code for function opening modal panel
function dummy() {}
function popUpGraph(existingChart) {
var options = existingChart.options;
var popupChart = new Highcharts.Chart(Highcharts.merge(options, {
chart: {
renderTo: 'popup_chart',
height:300,
width:700,
zoomType: 'x',
events: {
load: dummy,
click: dummy
}
}
}));
$( "#dialog").dialog({
autoOpen: false,
height: 350,
width: 750,
modal: true,
show:'blind',
close: function(event, ui) { popupChart.destroy(); }
});
$("#dialog").dialog("open");
}

You can get the new range by the selection event and then get the respective position from the chart serie.
See my example.
http://jsfiddle.net/ricardolohmann/sZMFh/
So, if you want to show it inside the lightbox you have to change the following code:
chart2 = new Highcharts.StockChart({
chart: {
renderTo: 'container2'
},
series: newSeries
});
To this one, and set the container2 display to none
Lightview.show({ url: 'container2', type: 'inline' });

Further to Santhosh's answer, I added this at the end of popupGraph function to get data loaded up:
$.each(existingChart.series, function (prop, val) {
popupChart.series[prop].setData(val.options.data);
popupChart.series[prop].update(val.options);
});

Changing the height or adding padding to an EXTjs ext.tab.Tab component

I've got a a Tab panel with a few tabs inside. I'm using the iconCls property in the tabs to give each tab an image along with its title. I'm using the fam fam fam 16x16 icons and the default tab space is cutting the images off at the top/bottom.
I tried messing around with the icon's class by changing the margins but it's not helping. According to the documentation the ext.tab.Tab component has padding and height properties, but setting those is not having an effect on the tab at runtime.
Ext.define('AM.view.Tab.Standard', {
extend: 'Ext.tab.Panel',
alias: 'widget.TabStandard',
region: 'center', // a center region is ALWAYS required for border layout
deferredRender: false,
activeTab: 0, // first tab initially active
initComponent: function() {
this.items = this.buildItems();
this.callParent(arguments);
},
buildItems: function(){
var items =
[
{
padding: 10, // nope :(
title: 'Gantt',
autoScroll: true,
iconCls: 'gantt icon',
},
{
height: 10, // nope :(
title: 'Logs',
autoScroll: true,
iconCls: 'logs icon',
},
{
title: 'Help',
autoScroll: true,
iconCls: 'help icon',
}
];
return items
},
});
Perhaps I'm misunderstanding how those properties work, but the everything on the page looks the same.
EDIT: It appears I'm having the same problem with the "Headings" (the bar with the +/-) when used as an accordion panel.

You can customize tabs in a tab panel by using the tabBar property on tabPanel:
var tabpanel = new Ext.tab.Panel({
plain: true,
region: 'center',
tabBar: {
defaults: {
flex: 1, // if you want them to stretch all the way
height: 20, // set the height
padding: 6 // set the padding
},
dock: 'top'
}
});
