Dirk Frederickx commented on JSPWIKI-1102:
------------------------------------------
Alex,
Congrat's you got it working!
Some remarks with the propsed implementation:
-Since %%chartist would be a new behaviour that you add to JSPWiki, I'd
suggest you add it to the Wiki.Behaviours.js file, which contains all
behaviours. It probably also simplifies things, as you don't need the
charity() helper call.
-You have added additional CSS and JS links to the commonheader.jsp. This
means that for every wiki page, these external files will be loaded (and may
slow down the page reder time), even when never used!
I'd suggest you'd keep the initial javascript code which dynamically add's the
external css and js links in case a page invokes the %%chartist behaviour.
-there are now hardcoded references to a specific version of the chartist
library. (currently the latest) Probably it would be better to have those
links configurable, and not hardcoded.
BR,
dirk
BTW, a similar and very useful extension to JspWiki may be the Math Behaviour !

> Add a charting library to JSPWiki for easy rendering data in TABLE's as line,
> pie- or bar-charts.
> The charting library should provide well chosen defaults to keep the extra
> markup as little as possible.
> Proposal:
> Include [https://gionkunz.github.io/chartist-js/] (MIT license) in the
> standard JSPWiki's distribution.
> * small footprint (10K zipped JS; only loaded in pages with require charts)
> * usage of svg; high quality device independent
> * highly customizable; but using 'convention over configuration' (great
> defaults)
> * responsive (great output on mobile devices)
>
> Prereq: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JSPWIKI-1040
