Line Chart

In Lowcoder, the Line Chart component is a powerful tool for visualizing trends and changes over time or across categories. It connects individual data points with lines, making it ideal for tracking progressions, comparisons, and patterns within datasets.

Key Features

1. Data Binding

The Line Chart component supports data binding through arrays of JavaScript objects. Each object represents a data point with specific fields corresponding to chart axes. For example:

[
  { "date": "2022-03-01", "category": "A", "value": 10 },
  { "date": "2022-03-02", "category": "B", "value": 15 },
  { "date": "2022-03-03", "category": "A", "value": 20 }
]

This structure allows for straightforward mapping of data onto the chart's axes. Additionally, you can utilize JavaScript within {{ }} to reference or transform data dynamically, enabling integration with other components or queries.

2. Chart Configuration

Customize the Line Chart through the Properties panel:

X-Axis Configuration: Define the X-axis to represent categories, values, time, or logarithmic scales, depending on your data.
Series Management: Manage multiple data series to compare different datasets within the same chart.

These configurations allow for a tailored visualization that aligns with your specific data representation needs.

3. Dynamic Data Transformation

Leverage JavaScript transformers to manipulate and format data before rendering:

let dates = query1.data.date;
let categories = query1.data.category;
let values = query1.data.value;
let result = [];

for (let i = 0; i < dates.length; i++) {
  result.push({ date: dates[i], category: categories[i], value: values[i] });
}

return result;

This approach is particularly useful when dealing with data from queries that require restructuring to fit the chart's expected format.

4. Styling and Theming

Enhance the visual appeal of your Line Chart by customizing styles:

Colors and Fonts: Adjust colors, fonts, and other stylistic elements to match your application's theme.
ECharts Integration: For advanced customization, integrate Apache ECharts by providing a JSON configuration in the chart's settings.

These styling options ensure that your chart aligns with the overall design aesthetics of your application.
