 Project Readme

Highcharts-Rails

This gem just includes Highcharts as an asset in the Rails 3.1 (or newer) asset pipeline. Highcharts is not free for commercial use, so make sure you have a valid license to use Highcharts.

If you are looking to include Highstock, Justin Kuepper has made highstock-rails, so check it out.

Installation

Add the gem to the Gemfile

gem "highcharts-rails"
# The gem version mirrors the included version of Highcharts

Changes

We have a tiny changelog for this gem, but since it's just a tiny wrapper gem, refer to the Highcharts changelog for the important things.

Usage

In your JavaScript manifest (e.g. application.js)

//= require highcharts
// to get the new features in 2.3.0:
//= require highcharts/highcharts-more

Including the modules you want and need

//= require highcharts/modules/annotations
//= require highcharts/modules/data
//= require highcharts/modules/drilldown
//= require highcharts/modules/exporting
//= require highcharts/modules/funnel
//= require highcharts/modules/heatmap
//= require highcharts/modules/no-data-to-display
//= require highcharts/modules/offline-exporting

Or one of the themes

//= require highcharts/themes/dark-blue
//= require highcharts/themes/dark-green
//= require highcharts/themes/gray
//= require highcharts/themes/grid
//= require highcharts/themes/skies

Some of the modules are meant to be loaded by Highcharts on-demand, such as canvas-tools (highcharts/highcharts#2311 (comment)), so don't require them on your own.

Other than that, refer to the Highcharts documentation

Licensing

Highcharts, which makes up the majority of this gem, has its own, separate licensing.

The gem itself is released under the MIT license
