1. Install dependencies in your application with bower
Install these if you don't already have it.
bower install angular --save
bower install d3 --save
bower install nvd3 --save
bower install angularjs-nvd3-directives --save
2. Create basic Angular.js application
Create a html page and start with the following code. For d3.js it is important that the page include <meta charset="utf-8">
, otherwise you will get error messages about special characters.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
Include the downloaded dependencies in the <head>
section of the html.
<script src="bower_components/angular/angular.js"></script>
<script src="bower_components/d3/d3.js"></script>
<script src="bower_components/nvd3/nv.d3.js"></script>
<script src="bower_components/angularjs-nvd3-directives/dist/angularjs-nvd3-directives.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="bower_components/nvd3/nv.d3.css"/>
Create a <script>
block for the angular application
<script>
var app = angular.module("nvd3TestApp", ['nvd3ChartDirectives']);
function ExampleCtrl($scope){
$scope.exampleData = [
{

For this example we are hardcoding the data to make it easer to quickly create a chart. In the wild, this would obviously not be ideal, but it is more involved than a basic quick start can accomplish.
Close out the head
</head>
Setup the <body>
and the rest of the angular application
<body ng-app='nvd3TestApp'>
The add the ng-app
attribute to the <body>
element, and set the value to nvd3TestApp
, which is the same value used in the script block above angular.module('nvd3TestApp', ...)
.
Add the Directive to the body of the application
<div ng-controller="ExampleCtrl">
<nvd3-line-chart
data="exampleData"
showXAxis="true"
showYAxis="true"
tooltips="true"
interactive="true">
</nvd3-line-chart>
</div>
The directive is wrapped inside of a <div>
that has a ng-controller
attribute that has the same value as the name of the function created in the <script>
block above.
Close out the body
and html
elements.
</body>
</html>
If everything is setup correctly, you should be able to open the page and see a basic line chart.
For those of you wanting to debug, fix, enhance angularjs-nvd3-directives, follow the steps below after cloning this repository:
npm install
grunt bower-install
You can now run the unit tests simply by typing:
grunt test
If you wish to issue a pull request, please add a unit test for the change you are making, ensure that it is shown to fail without your fix and pass with your fix.
NOTE: we are just starting to add the foundations for unit testing here, so please chip in to help enhance the stability of this framework and be patient with us as we work towards that goal.
