I did some searching of the archives and found the following :
1) Fusioncharts.com (care of Boris) -- Exactly what I'm after but I can't afford it for my 'hobby' site. 2) Flotr - Looks promising (javascript library) but would require some smalltalk front-end to do the interfacing 3) Plotkit in Cincom public store -- looks like it's possibly out of date (last update 9/07) but otherwise promising 4) Seaside's CSS Bar graph -- good if a bar graph is good enough.. I need more than just a bar graph... 5) Seachart - supports bar charts + plotkit Ultimately, I'd love something like #1 above but which is free and does more than just vanilla bar or pie charts. I can live with something that can run under Linux or preferably FreeBSD and perhaps have an API to use it via VW -- something I suspect #1 is setup like. So far with that criteria, #5 is closest but may be out of date as well (the VW version that is -- last update 9/07). This looks the most promising but may need more effort to bring it up to the current Squeak version.. Are there any others I've missed/overlooked? Thanks! -- Rick _______________________________________________ seaside mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/seaside |
Flotr does have a VisualWorks smalltalk front end. Karsten published
it to the public store at Seaside-Flotr. And as far as I know Fusioncharts can run off the free version http://www.fusioncharts.com/free/ What type af charts are you wanting to make? 2009/4/10 Rick Flower <[hidden email]>: > I did some searching of the archives and found the following : > > 1) Fusioncharts.com (care of Boris) -- Exactly what I'm after but I can't > afford it for my 'hobby' site. > 2) Flotr - Looks promising (javascript library) but would require some > smalltalk front-end to do the interfacing > 3) Plotkit in Cincom public store -- looks like it's possibly out of date > (last update 9/07) but otherwise promising > 4) Seaside's CSS Bar graph -- good if a bar graph is good enough..

I'm looking for, at a minimum, pie & bar/line charts. I'll be looking into others as time permits and I see what sort of data I can mine out of my archived data sets.. Boris - Did you check in your fusioncharts front-end that you mentioned back in 2007? Just thought I'd check.. -- Rick _______________________________________________ seaside mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/seaside |

Have you loaded scriptaculous, I left out the prototype.js file as it
was already served by scriptaculous so it is probably that. 2009/4/11 Rick Flower <[hidden email]>: > Ryan Simmons wrote: >> >> Flotr does have a VisualWorks smalltalk front end.

Hi Rick,
i actually noticed that Seaside-Flotr needs a newer version of the prototype library. You may go to the prototype page and grab the latest version, then it works just nicely.

Is there some automated tool I can use to translate the single/double quotes in the updated prototype javascript code to something that can to cut-n-pasted into the existing #prototypeJs method?

you can use the seaside file library editor to upload the new
prototype.js file. Or you use the VisualWorks inspector on String new, paste the string there, select accept from the context menu and then copy you can use "self printString" to have it double-quoted.

Good to know.. I figured there was a better more fool proof way! _______________________________________________ seaside mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/seaside |
By the way, just for completeness, I've stumbled across the following
extra packages that people can look into for graphing/charting in conjunction with Seaside: 1) Google Charts - I'm working on a port of the Squeak package to be used on VW, which is actually a part of the SeaChart package -- but not the VW version which is somewhat dated now.. 2) OpenFlashCharts which also has a Squeak package available and a demo. Main OFC page : __http://teethgrinder.co.uk/open-flash-chart-2/_ Squeak Source: __http://www.squeaksource.com/OpenFlashChart.html_ Seaside Example: __http://udos.seasidehosting.st/seaside/examples/ofc__ <http://www.squeaksource.com/OpenFlashChart.html> Anyway, just passing these along.. _______________________________________________ seaside mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/seaside |

The bundle name is "SeasideGoogleCharts".. There's some example code included but you may need to register a new application entry point.. I'm not sure why the example wouldn't auto-register like others do.. Anyway, not a big deal.. It works fine otherwise and you can try the different graphs out. Feel free to update if you find any problems specific to VW. -- Rick _______________________________________________ seaside mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/seaside |
