The easiest way to use jquery-fusioncharts
plugin is to install it from npm
and include it in your own build process (using Browserify, Webpack etc).
npm install jquery-fusioncharts --save
jQuery needs to be imported before the jquery-fusioncharts
plugin is included in the project. Note that in order to support IE 6/7/8, jQuery 1.x versions need to be used.
var $ = require('jquery');
var FusionCharts = require('fusioncharts');
// Load charts module to render Column2D chart
var Charts = require('fusioncharts/fusioncharts.charts');
require('jquery-fusioncharts');
$('document').ready(function() {
// Once the window with a document is ready, execute the Chart module
// and pass FusionCharts as a dependency
Charts(FusionCharts);
// Render the chart using `insertFusionCharts` method
$('#chart-container').insertFusionCharts({
type: 'column2d',
width: '600',
height: '400',
dataFormat: 'json',
dataSource: {
chart: {
caption: 'Countries With Most Oil Reserves [2017-18]',
subCaption: 'In MMbbl = One Million barrels',
xAxisName: 'Country',
yAxisName: 'Reserves (MMbbl)',
numberSuffix: 'K'
},
data: [
{
label: 'Venezuela',
value: '290'
},
{
label: 'Saudi',
value: '260'
},
{
label: 'Canada',
value: '180'

}
]
}
});
});
import $ from 'jquery';
import FusionCharts from 'fusioncharts';
// Load charts module to render Column2D chart
import Charts from 'fusioncharts/fusioncharts.charts';
import 'jquery-fusioncharts';
$('document').ready(function() {
// Once the window with a document is ready, execute the Chart module
// and pass FusionCharts as a dependency
Charts(FusionCharts);
// Render the chart using `insertFusionCharts` method
$('#chart-container').insertFusionCharts({
type: 'column2d',
width: '600',
height: '400',
dataFormat: 'json',
dataSource: {
chart: {
caption: 'Countries With Most Oil Reserves [2017-18]',

yAxisName: 'Reserves (MMbbl)',

{
label: 'US',

},
{
label: 'China',
value: '30'
}
]
}
});
});
You can also use the standalone build by including package/jquery-fusioncharts.js
in your page. If you use this, make sure you have included jQuery, FusionCharts and FusionCharts charts module.
To set up the FusionCharts jQuery plugin, follow the steps given below:
<script type="text/javascript" src="path/to/local/jquery.min.js"></script>
jQuery needs to be imported before the FusionCharts jQuery plugin is included in the project. Note that in order to support IE 6/7/8, jQuery 1.x versions need to be used.
- Copy fusioncharts.js from the FusionCharts Download Package > js folder in your project
- Add reference to the file in your code
<script type="text/javascript" src="path/to/local/fusioncharts.js"></script>
- Copy fusioncharts.jqueryplugin.js from the FusionCharts Download Package > js folder in your project
- Add reference to the file in your code
<script
type="text/javascript"
src="path/to/local/fusioncharts.theme.fusion.js"
></script>
This step is optional, the chart will render with the default theme even if the theme file is not included.
<script
type="text/javascript"
src="path/to/local/fusioncharts.jqueryplugin.js"
></script>
This completes the setup and you are now ready to begin using the FusionCharts jQuery plugin.
In addition to using all the existing features, the jQuery plugin lets you do the following:
- Render jQuery charts that work across PCs (including IE6/7/8), Macs, iPads, iPhones, and Android devices seamlessly
- Update chart type, data, and individual cosmetic properties at run-time
- Insert, prepend, and append multiple charts in an existing chart container
- Customize the look and feel of all elements on the chart
- Plot charts from data contained in HTML tables

In addition to using all the existing features, the jQuery plugin lets you do the following:
- Render jQuery charts that work across PCs (including IE6/7/8), Macs, iPads, iPhones, and Android devices seamlessly
- Update chart type, data, and individual cosmetic properties at run-time
- Insert, prepend, and append multiple charts in an existing chart container
- Customize the look and feel of all elements on the chart
- Plot charts from data contained in HTML tables
For rendering new charts, you can use the following jQuery methods:
insertFusionCharts
appendFusionCharts
prependFusionCharts
Renders charts inside HTML elements. The HTML elements have to be selected using jQuery selector. In case, multiple HTML elements are selected using the jQuery selector, a chart will be rendered inside each selected HTML element. All existing elements inside the selected elements will be replaced by the rendered charts. This method returns the jQuery selected element to allow chaining with other jQuery methods.
An object of chart configurations (set of key, value pairs) can be passed as parameter. Click here to view complete list of chart configurations.
$("#chart-container").insertFusionCharts({
type: 'hlineargauge',
width: '400',
height: '150',
dataFormat: 'json',
dataSource: {
"chart": {
...
},
"colorRange": {
"color": [
...
]
},
"pointers": {
"pointer": [
...
]
}
}
});
Renders charts at the end of selected HTML elements. The HTML elements need to be selected using jQuery selector. In case multiple HTML elements are selected, chart will be rendered inside each selected HTML element. All existing elements inside the selected elements will be preserved. The method returns the original jQuery selection to allow chaining of other jQuery methods.
An object of chart configurations (set of key, value pairs) can be passed as parameter. Click here to view complete list of chart configurations.
$('#chart-container').insertFusionCharts({
type: 'pie2d',
width: '450',
height: '300',
dataFormat: 'json',
dataSource: {
"chart": {
...
},
"data": [...]
}
});
$('#btnClone').click(function() {
// Clone the chart to create a column chart representation of the same data
$('#chart-container').cloneFusionCharts(function() {
// Append the cloned chart to the same chart container
$('#chart-container').appendFusionCharts(this[0]);
}, {
'id': 'chart-clone',
'type': 'column2d'
});
});
In the above example, the horizontal linear gauge has been rendered using the insertFusionCharts method. The constructor object is passed as an argument to the insertFusionCharts method
In the above code snippet, the cloneFusionCharts method is used to create a column-chart clone of the existing pie-chart.This method finds all the charts in the selected element and returns of list of their clones.
The cloneFusionCharts method accepts two arguments:
- An anonymous callback function: An array of cloned charts (in this Array) is passed to this function for further processing
- A configuration object: An object containing chart configurations which are applied to each cloned chart
Renders and inserts charts at the beginning of selected HTML elements. The HTML elements need to be selected using jQuery selector. In case multiple HTML elements are selected, chart will be rendered inside each selected HTML element. All existing elements inside the selected elements will be preserved. The method returns the original jQuery selection to allow chaining of other jQuery methods.
An object of chart configurations (set of key, value pairs) can be passed as parameter. Click here to view complete list of chart configurations.
$('#chart-container').insertFusionCharts({
type: 'pie2d',
width: '450',
height: '300',
dataFormat: 'json',
dataSource: {
"chart": {
...
},
"data": [
...
]
}
});
$('#btnClone').click(function() {
// Clone the chart to create a column chart representation of the same data
$('#chart-container').cloneFusionCharts(function() {
// Prepend the cloned chart to the same chart container
$('#chart-container').prependFusionCharts(this[0]);
}, {
'id': 'chart-clone',
'type': 'column2d'
});
});
Similar to the appendFusionCharts method example, the cloneFusionCharts method is used here to clone the existing pie chart, which is then prepended as a column chart.
There! You have now seen the various methods you can use to render charts using the jQuery plugin.
More detailed information and documentation can be found here.
To attach events to FusionCharts element, you can use bind or on with jQuery selectors.
The event name string should be of the pattern 'fusioncharts[event name in lowercase]', eg. to attach an event listener to dataplotRollOver, the string will be 'fusionchartsdataplotrollover'.
$("#chart-container").on('fusioncharts[event name in lowercase]', function(eventObj, dataObj) {
[code goes here]
});

To call APIs we will need the chart object. To get the chart object, use the method getFusionCharts. It returns an array of all chart objects inside the given selector. Once you have the chart object, you can use any FusionCharts API on it.
var chartObjects = $("#chart-container").getFusionCharts();
chartObjects.forEach(function (chart) {
chart.[API Call]
});
