intro-to-d3 VS echarts

For learning D3, I'd start with a tutorial like this and then check out the D3 graph gallery for inspiration

There's a possibly relevant tutorial for data binding and the source code. In one of the examples, the click handler for a button press updates some graph - that's probably similar to the setup you want. It doesn't matter if you pass the value into the update function or throw it in a global, it should work as long as you call your graph update function right after.

import puppeteer from "puppeteer"; import fs from "node:fs"; import { storiesTpl, storiesArgs, generOptions, generOptionsWithFn, } from "./template.mjs"; const ECHARTS_BASE_URL = "https://echarts.apache.org/examples/en/index.html"; function capitalizeFirstLetter(str) { if (!str || str.length === 0) { return ""; } str = str.toLowerCase(); return str.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + str.slice(1); } (async function () { const browser = await puppeteer.launch(); const page = await browser.newPage(); // Navigate the page to a URL await page.goto(ECHARTS_BASE_URL); // Set screen size await page.setViewport({ width: 1080, height: 1024 }); // Type into search box // const examples = await page.type([".example-list-panel"]); const searchResultSelector = ".example-list-panel > div"; const results = await page.$$(searchResultSelector); for (const element of results) { // gener namespace const ele = await element.$(".chart-type-head"); const title = await ele.evaluate((el) => el.textContent); let namespace = title.split(" ").filter(Boolean); namespace = namespace.slice(0, namespace.length - 1); namespace = namespace .map((item) => item.replace("\n", "").replace("/", "")) .filter(Boolean) .join(""); console.log(`${namespace} start`); const instances = await element.$$(".row .example-list-item"); const components = []; for (const instance of instances) { // title const titleElement = await instance.$(".example-title"); const subTitle = await titleElement.evaluate((el) => el.textContent); const titles = subTitle .split(" ") .filter(Boolean) .map((item) => item .replace(/\+/g, "") .replace(/\(/g, "") .replace(/\)/g, "") .replace(/-/g, "") ); const title = titles.map((item) => capitalizeFirstLetter(item)).join(""); const link = await instance.$(".example-link"); const newPagePromise = new Promise((resolve) => { browser.on("targetcreated", async (target) => { if (target.type() === "page") { const targetPage = await target.page(); const url = await targetPage.url(); if (url.includes("editor")) { resolve(targetPage); } } }); }); await link.click(); const newPage = await newPagePromise; await newPage.setViewport({ width: 40000, height: 20000 }); await newPage.waitForSelector(".ace_text-layer"); await new Promise((resolve) => { setTimeout(() => { resolve(); }, 3000); }); let content = await newPage.evaluate( () => document.querySelector(".ace_text-layer").innerText ); content = content .replace(/\[\]/g, "[] as any") .replace(//g, "") .replace(/var/g, "let"); let options; if (content.includes("myChart")) { options = generOptionsWithFn({ options: content }); } else { options = generOptions({ options: content }); } components.push({ options, title }); await newPage.close(); } const args = components .filter(({ options }) => { if (options.includes("$")) return false; return true; }) .map(({ options, title }) => storiesArgs({ options: options, name: title }) ) .join("\r\n"); const scripts = storiesTpl({ namespace: `Charts/${namespace}`, components: args, }); fs.writeFileSync(`./bots/assests/${namespace}.stories.ts`, scripts); console.log(`${namespace} end`); } })();

I want to know where my money goes. I like to look at stacked-area (or column) charts of the categories of spending. To make this work I have some software I made ~20 years ago that does double-entry book-keeping. At the end of the month, I import statements from financial service providers (eg: Wells Fargo, Chase, PayPal, Stripe, etc). Lots of stuff is repeat purchases (eg: Shell Gas) and my software automatically categorises. Some transactions I have to categorise manually. Each category / vendor becomes an expense-account and my banks and CCs exist as assets and liabilities.

Once the import and reconciliation is done I pull up a my column chart that shows where the money went -- and can compare over time -- see a full year of movement. I've been through various charting libraries with it and most recently moved to ECharts[0] -- so I'm planning to expand with Treemap and Sankey style visuals.

The import process, which I do monthly takes maybe an hour. I'm importing from like 5 bank accounts, 3 payment processors, 4 CC providers. The part that takes the longest is signing into their slow sites, navigating past pop-up/interstitial, getting to their download page and waiting for it to download. Loads of these sites (WF, Chase) have been "modernised" and have some real bullshit UI/UX going on -- lags, no keyboard, elements jump around, forms can't remember state, ctrl+click won't open in a new page cause that damned link isn't actually a link but some nested monster of DIVs with 19 event listeners on each one -- and somehow still all wrong.

I think the most-best feature would be to have some tool automatically get all my transactions from all these providers into one common format. Gimmee some JSON with like 10 commonly-named fields for the normal stuff and then 52 other BS fields that each provider likes to add (see a PayPal CSV for example). Does that exist and I just don't know?

Coded mainly in Perl and Gnuplot, recently extended by Python Pandas and JavaScript Tabulator and ECharts

Dashboards have a lot of charts for different forms and data. This is another common requirement. This template recommends Apache ECharts, a powerful, easy-to-use, and flexible JavaScript visualization library.

We have developed an open source graphics library for react native APP, which is based on Apache ECharts and uses RNSVG or RNSkia for rendering in a way that is almost identical to using it in the web, and can satisfy most graphics situations. The project source code is available at https://github.com/wuba/wrn-echarts .

How are you importing the definition? Assuming you are using "apache/echarts" and not some other lib named "echarts", you should be able to import DatasetModel directly and let tree shaking trim out what you're not using.
