Charticulator

Charticulator is a new charting tool that allows you to design charts by interactively specifying constraints.

Project Team

Build

Follow the following steps to prepare a development environment:

Install nodejs 8.0+: https://nodejs.org/
Install yarnjs 1.7+: https://yarnpkg.com/

Install node modules:

yarn

Copy the template configuration file and edit its contents:

cp config.template.yml config.yml
# (on windows, use copy instead of cp)

Run the following command to build Charticulator, which will create a self contained bundle in the dist folder:

yarn build

Run a local web server to test Charticulator:

# Serve Charticulator at http://localhost:4000
yarn server

# Serve Charticulator publicly at http://0.0.0.0:4000
# Use this if you want to enable access from another computer
yarn public_server

Development

For a live development environment, keep the following command running:

yarn start

This command watches for any change in src/ and sass/, and recompiles Charticulator automatically. Once this up, open http://localhost:4000/ to launch Charticulator. Now when you change the source code, the app can be updated by simply refreshing the browser page (you may need to disable browser cache).

In development mode, there is a test application for UI components, which can be accessed at http://localhost:4000/test.html.

The watch mode won't update when you change the following:

config.yml
THIRD_PARTY.yml
webpack.config.js

When you update these, please do yarn build again.

Sample Datasets

You can add custom sample datasets that can be used with Charticulator. To do so, create a datasets folder at the root of the repository(if it doesn't exist), add your .csv (or .tsv) to that folder, and finally create a files.json file in the folder with the following contents:

[
    {
        "name": "<Your dataset display name>",
        "description": "<Your dataset desription>",
        "tables": [
            {
                "name": "<Your dataset file name without extension>",
                "type": "<csv || tsv>",
                "url": "<Your dataset file name with extension>"
            }
        ]
    }
]

Testing

Charticulator currently include a rudimentary test code:

yarn test

More test cases are needed.
