[rt-users] Help with building Graphs

[Bryon Baker]

Hello all I am trying to create some custom graphs.  The issue I am have is 
getting the data in the right format for GD:Graph

Using data dumper I can see that I am getting the correct data.  Per GD::Graph 
when I pass the data object to GD::Graph it is in an invalid format.

In the code I use the object @data for the data from Request tracker.  The 
data2 object I built for testing and it works fine.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Here is my test code snippet.


my @data;
my @status = qw[new assigned opened evaluation closed];
for my $status (@status)
{
my $search = new RT::Tickets($RT::SystemUser);
$search-FromSQL(Queue = 'cerby' AND Status = '$status');
push @data, $search-Count;
#print Dumper(\@data);
print Dumper(\$search);
}
my @data2 = (
[1st,2nd,3rd,4th],
   [ 1, 3.5, 5, 6 ],
);

print Dumper(\@data2);
my $pie = GD::Graph::pie-new(400, 400);
$pie-set(
#   accentclr   = undef,
'3d'= 0,
) or die $pie-error;
my $img1 = $pie-plot(\@data2) or die $pie-error;
open(IMG, 'pie.png') or die $!;
binmode IMG;
print IMG $img1-png;

Thanks

Looking at your code, it seems that the two data structures would be
completely different.

The example data in @data2 consists of two array references: one for labels
and one for values.  Essentially, it's a 2D matrix.

Your @data array would just directly contain values not wrapped within an
array reference, and with no labels.

I haven't played with GD::Graph or read its documentation, so that format
may be acceptable.

To get the two arrays identical in structure though, you could add this
after the for loop:

@data = (\@status, \@data);
