# Geometry The type of the chart is determined by geometry. ```javascript chart.() .position() .size() .color() .shape() .adjust() .style() .animate(); ``` The following is a simple grammar for a basic bar chart.. ```javascript chart.interval().position('x*y').color('x'); ``` **NOTE: The return of the above method `chart.interval()` is a geom instance, not a chart instance.** Currently we support 7 geometry types： | **Type** | **Description** | | ---------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- | | `point` | point, used for drawing point chart, scatter chart, bubble chart. | | `path` | path, a line of unordered connected. | | `line` | line, used for drawing line chart, and the data will be ordered. | | `area` | area, used for drawing area chart | | `interval` | used to form a bar chart or a pie chart. | | `polygon` | It is usually used to form heat map chart or map. | | `schema` | Used to form a candlesticks chart or box chart. | ## Properties ```javascript chart.({ generatePoints: {Boolean}, sortable: {Boolean}, startOnZero: {Boolean}, connectNulls: {Boolean} }) ``` ### `generatePoints` * type: `Boolean` * description: Wether to generate multiple points to draw charts, if true, multiple points will be generated. * default: false for line and path, other geometry types default to be true. ```javascript chart.line({ generatePoints: true }) ``` ### `sortable` * type: `Boolean` * description: Whether to sort the data according to the corresponding field of the x-axis, and sort it when true * default: `true` for area and line, other geometry types default to be false. **Note: When drawing a line or area chart, if your data has been sorted, you can set this property to `false` to improve performance.** ```javascript chart.line({ sortable: false }) ``` ### `startOnZero` * type: `Boolean` * description: Wether to set the baseline of the y-axis starting from 0, default to be true, means starts from 0. * default: true ```javascript chart.line({ startOnZero: false }) ``` The usage scenarios for this property are as follows: | `startOnZero: true` | `startOnZero: false` | | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | [![](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/a03204b2b0ff11bd440af83602676ca785f38278/68747470733a2f2f67772e616c697061796f626a656374732e636f6d2f7a6f732f726d73706f7274616c2f5a5171775543637a616c724b71476761674f56702e706e67)](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/a03204b2b0ff11bd440af83602676ca785f38278/68747470733a2f2f67772e616c697061796f626a656374732e636f6d2f7a6f732f726d73706f7274616c2f5a5171775543637a616c724b71476761674f56702e706e67) | [![](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/f18b3a9ff0994c86ebdbae3f2903915fbef9d237/68747470733a2f2f67772e616c697061796f626a656374732e636f6d2f7a6f732f726d73706f7274616c2f795073776b615876557043594f64686f634777422e706e67)](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/f18b3a9ff0994c86ebdbae3f2903915fbef9d237/68747470733a2f2f67772e616c697061796f626a656374732e636f6d2f7a6f732f726d73706f7274616c2f795073776b615876557043594f64686f634777422e706e67) | ### connectNulls * type: `Boolean` * description: Used to set whether to connect empty data (for line, area and path types) * default: false ```javascript chart.line({ connectNulls: true // connect empty data });

chart.line().position([ 'x', 'y' ]); ``` The following code will render a bar chart, which the x-axis representing the `fruit` and the y-axis representing the `price`. ```javascript const data = [ { fruit: 'apple', price: 2 }, { fruit: 'orange', price: 1.5 }, { fruit: 'banana', price: 0.8 } ]; const chart = new F2.Chart({ id: 'mountNode', pixelRatio: window.devicePixelRatio }); chart.source(data); chart.interval().position('fruit*price'); chart.render(); ``` ![](https://2543643007-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LHpLji2HmId7esWiRt3%2F-LI0YbUrpq1GT49fuF8_%2F-LI0oBVnor9yAU6vMrZj%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=df0a2e65-8f1e-4f46-b8bc-d182d547c865) ### `color()` A method of mapping data values ​​to the color of the geometry. ```javascript chart.line().color('red'); // Color chart.line().color('fieldName'); // use the built-in colors to map field chart.line().color('fieldName', [ 'red', 'blue' ]) // specify colors chart.line().color('fieldName', (type) => { // use callback to map data to colors if (type === 'a') { return 'red'; } return 'blue'; }); chart.line().color('fieldName*value', (type, value) => { // multiple parameters, use callback to map if (type === 'a' && value > 100) { return 'red'; } return 'blue'; }); ``` #### **color(value)** * `value`: String At this time, value can be: * The data field mapped to the color attribute. If the field name does not exist in the data, it will be parsed as a constant. This time, the default color provided by F2 will be used. * also can be a specific color value, such as 'red', '#ddd', '#dddddd', 'rgb(255, 10, 30)' or `'l(0) 0:#ffffff 0.5:#7ec2f3 1:#1890ff'`. ```javascript chart.point().position('x*y').color('x'); // use the built-in color to map the data field of x-axis chart.point().position('x*y').color('red'); // all points are mapped to red chart.area().position('x*y').color('l(0) 0:#ffffff 0.5:#7ec2f3 1:#1890ff'); // fill a gradient ``` #### **color(fieldName, colors)** * `fieldName`: String Data field name mapped to colors, multiple fields are supported. * `colors`: String / Array / Function * If colors is null, the built-in colors are used; * If you need to specify colors, you need to pass in an color array. ```javascript chart.point().position('x*y').color('z'); // use default colors chart.point().position('x*y').color('z', [ 'red', 'blue' ]); // specify colors ``` * When the map field is a linear scale type(for continuous quantitative data), you can declare the gradient color as follows, detailed demo [here](https://antv.alipay.com/zh-cn/f2/3.x/demo/other/heatmap.html). ```javascript chart.polygon().position('name*day').color('sales', '#BAE7FF-#1890FF-#0050B3') ``` * Colors can also be a callback function, the parameters of the callback are the data field values. If the function is going to map multiple data fields, parameters will be passed in the declared order, for example: ![](https://2543643007-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LHpLji2HmId7esWiRt3%2F-LI0rNNZokBVSj5vOeRh%2F-LI0yaRihHTSZjIcd8YD%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=336e3064-d475-499e-946e-77e1605eb284) ```javascript const data = [ { fruit: "apple", price: 2 }, { fruit: "orange", price: 1.5 }, { fruit: "banana", price: 0.8 } ]; const chart = new F2.Chart({ id: 'mountNode', pixelRatio: window.devicePixelRatio }); chart.source(data); chart.interval().position('fruit*price').color('fruit', val => { if (val === 'apple') { return '#CD0110'; } else if (val === 'orange') { return '#F88825'; } else if (val === 'banana') { return '#FAD639'; } }); chart.render(); ``` ### `shape()` A method of mapping data values ​​to the shape of the geometry. ```javascript chart.point().shape('circle'); // a specific shape chart.point().shape('fieldName'); // use the built-in shapes to map the data field chart.point().shape('fieldName', [ 'circle', 'hollowCircle', 'rect' ]); // specify shapes chart.point().shape('fieldName', (type) => { // use callback do the mapping if(type === 'a') { return 'circle'; } return 'rect'; }); ``` #### **shape(shapeName)** * `shapeName`: String Specify the shape that the geometry draws. The following table lists the shapes supported by different geometry types: | **Geometry Type** | **Supported Shape** | **Description** | | ----------------- | -------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- | | point | 'circle', 'hollowCircle', 'rect' | 'circle' is default | | line | 'line', 'smooth', 'dash' | 'line' is default, 'dash': dash line, 'smooth': smooth line | | area | 'area', 'smooth' | 'area' is default | | interval | 'rect' | | | polygon | 'polygon' | | | schema | 'candle' | only candlestick chart is supported currently | ```javascript chart.point().position('x*y').shape('rect'); // all the points's shapes are rectangles ``` #### **shape(fieldName, shapes)** * `fieldName`: String The name of the data field that maps to the shape attribute. * `shapes`: String / Array / Function `shapes` is an optional parameter. * ``` * If this parameter is not provided, shapes will be rendered defaultly. ``` ```` ```javascript // use default point shapes, 'circle', 'hollowCircle', 'rect' chart.point().position('x*y').shape('z'); ``` * Users can also specify shapes to render. The specific shapes are listed above. ```javascript chart.point().position('x*y').shape('z', [ 'circle', 'rect' ]); // specify shapes ``` * `shapes` can also be a callback function, the parameters of the callback are the data field values. If the function is going to map multiple data fields, parameters will be passed in the declared order, for example: ```` ![](https://2543643007-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LHpLji2HmId7esWiRt3%2F-LI100IFEqLrJWJc7HvO%2F-LI12rsonHaO8N_3Kn-b%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=3f38ca63-e289-4089-b910-e318ba686dca) ```javascript const data = [ { fruit: "apple", price: 2 }, { fruit: "orange", price: 1.5 }, { fruit: "banana", price: 0.8 } ]; const chart = new F2.Chart({ id: 'mountNode', pixelRatio: window.devicePixelRatio }); chart.source(data); chart.point().position('fruit*price').shape('fruit', val => { if (val === 'apple') { return 'rect'; } else if (val === 'orange') { return 'hollowCircle'; } else if (val === 'banana') { return 'circle'; } }); chart.render(); ``` ### size() A method of mapping data values ​​to the size of the geometry. ```javascript chart.point().size(10); // specific size chart.point().size('fieldName'); // the value mapped to the size chart.point().size('fieldName', [ 0, 10 ]); // the value mapped to the size, and specify maximum and minimum values chart.point().size('fieldName', val => { // 回调函数 if (val > 5) { return 10; } return 5; }); ``` **size(field, \[ min, max ])** Map the size of the geometry based on the value of the field, the maximum value (default to 10) and minimum value (default to 1) are specified by max and min. ```javascript // map the value in field z to size, the maximum mapped value is 100, minimum mapped value is 10. chart.point().position('x*y').size('z', [ 10, 100 ]); ``` #### **size(field, callback)** Use callback function to calculate the size of the geometry. ```javascript chart.point().position('x*y').size('z', value => { if (value === 1) { return 5; } return 10; }); ``` ### `adjust()` Declare the data adjustment method for the geometry instance, which can be used to draw stacked charts, grouped charts, etc. F2 supports two kinds of data adjustment: `stack` and `dodge`. ```javascript chart.interval().adjust('stack'); chart.interval().adjust({ type: 'stack' }); chart.interval().adjust([{ type: 'dodge', marginRatio: 0, // Values from 0 to 1 are used to adjust the space between bars in a group }]); ``` ![](https://2543643007-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LHpLji2HmId7esWiRt3%2F-LI15jyVy7-ZaXfJmFIo%2F-LI1692YBJUfiW4T1m7p%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=1f78af8d-43d9-4352-9cb2-4cd6653f3a27) ```javascript const data =[ { city: 'London', month: 'Jan.', rainfall: 18.9 }, { city: 'London', month: 'Feb.', rainfall: 28.8 }, { city: 'London', month: 'Mar.', rainfall: 39.3 }, { city: 'London', month: 'Apr.', rainfall: 81.4 }, { city: 'London', month: 'May.', rainfall: 47 }, { city: 'London', month: 'Jun.', rainfall: 20.3 }, { city: 'London', month: 'Jul.', rainfall: 24 }, { city: 'London', month: 'Aug.', rainfall: 35.6 }, { city: 'Berlin', month: 'Jan.', rainfall: 12.4 }, { city: 'Berlin', month: 'Feb.', rainfall: 23.2 }, { city: 'Berlin', month: 'Mar.', rainfall: 34.5 }, { city: 'Berlin', month: 'Apr.', rainfall: 99.7 }, { city: 'Berlin', month: 'May.', rainfall: 52.6 }, { city: 'Berlin', month: 'Jun.', rainfall: 35.5 }, { city: 'Berlin', month: 'Jul.', rainfall: 37.4 }, { city: 'Berlin', month: 'Aug.', rainfall: 42.4 } ]; const chart = new F2.Chart({ id: 'mountNode', pixelRatio: window.devicePixelRatio }); chart.source(data, { rainfall: { tickCount: 5 } }); chart.interval().position('month*rainfall').color('city').adjust('stack'); chart.render(); ``` ### `style()` Used to configure the display the geometries, see [Canvas](https://antv.gitbook.io/f2/api/canvas-api-in-f2) for more details. There are two ways to use `style()` method: #### `style(cfg)` * `cfg`: Object, configuration for graphical attributes, see [Canvas](https://antv.gitbook.io/f2/api/canvas-api-in-f2) for more details. ```javascript chart.line().style({ // style for all shapes lineWidth: 2 }); ``` #### `style(field, cfg)` Mapping from data fields to style configuration. * `field`: String, field name of data * `cfg`: Object, configuration for graphical attributes, **callback is also supported here** ```javascript chart.ling().style('city', { lineDash(val) { if (val === 'HZ') { return [ 2, 2 ]; } return null; } }) ``` ### `animate()` Configuration for geometry's animation.Includes animation type, duration time and easing function and so on. ```javascript chart.point().animate(false); // turn off animation chart.point().animate({ appear: { animation: {String}, // animation name easing: {String}, // easing function duration: {Number}, // duration time of the animation, ms is the unit delay: {Number} // delay of the animation, ms is the unit }, // entrance animation update: { animation: {String}, easing: {String}, duration: {Number}, delay: {Number} }, // updating animation enter: { animation: {String}, easing: {String}, duration: {Number}, delay: {Number} }, // animation for the change of the source data leave: { animation: {String}, easing: {String}, duration: {Number}, delay: {Number} } // destroy animation }); ``` For more about animations, see [Animation](https://antv.gitbook.io/f2/api/animation).
