    Graph view for a Dataset using Flot graphing library.

    Initialization arguments (in a hash in first parameter):

    • model: recline.Model.Dataset
    • state: (optional) configuration hash of form:

       {
         group: {column name for x-axis},
         series: [{column name for series A}, {column name series B}, ... ],
         // options are: lines, points, lines-and-points, bars, columns
         graphType: 'lines',
         graphOptions: {custom [flot options]}
       }
      

    NB: should not provide an el argument to the view but must let the view generate the element itself (you can then append view.el to the DOM.

    There are issues generating a Flot graph if either:

    • The relevant div that graph attaches to his hidden at the moment of creating the plot — Flot will complain with Uncaught Invalid dimensions for plot, width = 0, height = 0
    • There is no data for the plot — either same error or may have issues later with errors like ‘non-existent node-value’
        var areWeVisible = !jQuery.expr.filters.hidden(this.el);
        if ((!areWeVisible || this.model.records.length === 0)) {
          this.needToRedraw = true;

    check we have something to plot

    oddly x comes through as milliseconds string (rather than int or float) so we have to reparse

          x = new Date(parseFloat(x)).toLocaleDateString();
        } else if (this.xvaluesAreIndex) {
          x = parseInt(x, 10);
  • ¶

    HACK: deal with bar graph style cases where x-axis items were strings In this case x at this point is the index of the item in the list of records not its actual x-axis value

          x = this.model.records.models[x].get(this.state.attributes.group);
        }

    getGraphOptions

  • ¶

    convert x to a string and make sure that it is not too long or the tick labels will overlap TODO: find a more accurate way of calculating the size of tick labels

            var label = self._xaxisLabel(x) || "";
