PHP package to parse raw data into ChartJS

php-chartjs

Usage example

First of all is needed load the js file from cdn, for this you can retrieve like this:, _(*1)

        $chartJS = new ChartFactory();
        $jsUrl = $chartJS->getJsFileUrl();

Load at the end of page, before other chart scripts, _(*2)

NOTE: you can getJsFileUrl from any new XXXChart(); if you don't need to load from another file in template., _(*3)

Then you will generate the chart:, _(*4)

        $statsByDate = Customers::getDataList(); //in this case return [total,day]

        $barChart = new BarChart();
        $barChartData = $barChart->getData();
//        $barChartOptions = $barChart->getOptions(); // you can configure colors, sizes, etc.

        $barChartDataset = $barChartData->newDataset();
        foreach($statsByDay as $day){
            $barChartData->addLabel($day['date']);
            $barChartDataset->setLabel('Label for legend for this dataset color')->addData($day['total']);
        }

        $barChartHtmlCanvas = $barChart->getHtmlCanvas();
        $barChartHtmlScript = $barChart->getHtmlScript();

And add canvas in body where chart should appear, and script after previous $chartJS was included in page., _(*5)
