Hey all, I'm in a constant struggle with Google's visualization api, but I really don't see anything better, so I'm coming to you all with my bind. Let's say we have some data, like the number of tweets per language for a set of tweets. In this case, our breakdown may look something like:
+----------+-------+ | label | value | +----------+-------+ | German | 21 | | English | 448 | | Spanish | 30 | | French | 7 | | Italian | 2 | | Japanese | 1 | +----------+-------+ So, I set up a service on my site that exposes this data in the fashion I have seen to work with google charts, and a little piece of code to access and draw() the graph. Altogether, the snippet would look something like this pastie: http://pastie.org/2281512. So, my question is pretty simple. I don't want to pre-sort everything on the database end, as it would get particularly messing in determining what to sort by (as the code on that level is very abstracted from the business of displaying any particular graph). It would be better to sort it once loaded in js, and spit the sorted version out in the graph. How would one sort this particular graph by something like value (the number of people per language)? Would it just make more sense to load direct json like that located at http://test.140kit.com/test.json, and then sort and display that? what would the js look like for that? As you can tell, i know some programming but I'm basically useless and utterly defeated/hopeless when it comes to js. Any help would be very, very welcome. Thanks much. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Visualization API" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
