Time Series Charting Canvas API

Use

var chart = new Chart();
var ee = require('events').EventEmitter;
var datasource = new ee;

chart.series(datasource);
chart.to(document.getElementById('mychart'));

setInterval(function() {
    var random = Math.floor(Math.random()*100);
    datasource.emit('data',{y:random});
},1000);

Multiple Data sources

var d1 = new ee;
var d2 = new ee;

chart.series(d1);
chart.series(d2);

// or
chart.series([d1,d2])
    
// or
chart.series(d1,d2);

chart.series

Event types that chart.series responds to are

'data' - provides data for timeseries and optional labels

'stop' - stops the timeseries for that datastream

chart.legend

<canvas id='legend'></canvas>
chart.legend(document.getElementById('legend'));

Legend is automatically created with the data that is sent. To visualize and interact with a legend, use the .legend callback

Labels go with the value

datasorce.emit('data',{'units sold':9.2})

You can supply multiple labels

datasorce1.emit('data',{'units sold':9.2})
datasorce2.emit('data',{'current energy consumption':30})
