FusionCharts - Build beautiful web & mobile dashboards

FusionCharts is a JavaScript charting library providing 100+ charts and 2,000+ maps for your web and mobile applications. All the visualizations are interactive and animated, which are rendered using webview. This plugin provides Flutter interface which integrates with FC Core JavaScript library using webview.

This package also contains FusionTime (timeseries charts), FusionWidgets (gauges, real-time charts), PowerCharts (statistical and advanced charts), and FusionMaps (choropleth geo maps).

Use CDN instead of FC Core local asset bundle #

In order to use FusionCharts over CDN, please set isLocal property to false while instantiating the FusionCharts widget like so:

FusionCharts fc = newFusionCharts(
...
isLocal: false
)

Using FusionCharts in your project #

  • Create an dart file which utilizes the FusionCharts widget. For a simple two-dimensional Column chart. Use the following example
/// Widget which uses flutter_fusioncharts to render column chart
class ColumnChart extends StatefulWidget {
  const ColumnChart({super.key});

  @override
  State<ColumnChart> createState() => _ColumnChartState();
}

class _ColumnChartState extends State<ColumnChart> {
  late FusionCharts _fusionChart2D;
  FusionChartsController fusionChartsController = FusionChartsController();

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();
    /// Prameters to define the chart configuations i.e captions, 
    /// x and y axis labels, style etc. There are hoards of options that 
    /// can be used to do customize the chart. Details here: 
    /// https://www.fusioncharts.com/dev/fusioncharts
    Map<String, dynamic> chart = {
      "caption": "Countries With Most Oil Reserves [2017-18]",
      "subCaption": "In MMbbl = One Million barrels",
      "logoURL":
      "https://static.fusioncharts.com/sampledata/images/Logo-HM-72x72.png",
      "logoAlpha": "100",
      "logoScale": "110",
      "logoPosition": "TL",
      "xAxisName": "Country",
      "yAxisName": "Reserves (MMbbl)",
      "numberSuffix": "K",
      "theme": "carbon",
      "baseFontSize": "35px",
      "captionFontSize": "35px",
      "subCaptionFontSize": "30px"
    };
    /// Provide the underlying data for the chart.
    List<dynamic> chartData = [
      {"label": "Venezuela", "value": "290"},
      {"label": "Saudi", "value": "260"},
      {"label": "Canada", "value": "180"},
      {"label": "Iran", "value": "140"},
      {"label": "Russia", "value": "115"},
      {"label": "UAE", "value": "100"},
      {"label": "US", "value": "30"},
      {"label": "China", "value": "30"}
    ];

    /// Final datasource to be fed to the FusionCharts 
    Map<String, dynamic> dataSource = {"chart": chart, "data": chartData};

    // Instantiate FusionCharts widget with following properties
    _fusionChart2D = FusionCharts(
        dataSource: dataSource, // Map constructed above
        type: "column2d", // Type of chart
        width: "100%", // Width of the chart (for best results, use 100% only)
        height: "100%", // Height of the chart (manage the chart size on page using Container/SizedBox)
        events: const ['chartClick'], // Specify list of chart events that you want to listen to. For example `chartClick` is being setup
        fusionChartEvent: callBackFromPlugin, // Calllback on trigger of event. You can use chart id and event type to build responsive charts
        fusionChartsController: fusionChartsController, // Optional controller using which you can subscribe to events, unsubscribe and execute JavaScript based APIs
        licenseKey: licenseKey); // Optional, previde valid license key to remove the Trial Version watermark
  }

  /// Event triggered from the Fusion Charts library which triggers this callback method
  void callBackFromPlugin(senderId, eventType) {
    if (kDebugMode) {
      print('Event Back to consumer: $senderId , $eventType');
    }
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(
        leading: IconButton(
            icon: const Icon(Icons.arrow_back),
            onPressed: () => Navigator.of(context).pop()),
        title: const Text('Fusion Charts - Column'),
      ),
      body: SizedBox(
          height: MediaQuery.of(context).size.height / 2,
          child: _fusionChart2D),
    );
  }
}

Using events & API in your project #

Above example shows usage of events while creating the Fusion Chart widget. You can add or remove events and even call Fusion Chart API functions. You will need to instantialize the FusionChartController which methods to support these features

Note you need to use globalFusionChart JavaScript variable is available when you make a API call. Within the JS script you provide, you can refer to globalFusionChart variable to be able to target the chart object (JavaScript)

Continuing with above example, please note the instance of FusionChartController is being passed to the constructor of FusionChart widget.

/// To register for new events, simply call method like so
  fusionChartsController.addEvents('chartClick,dataLabelRollClick');
/// To unregister existing events, simply call method like so
  fusionChartsController.removeEvents('chartClick,dataLabelRollClick');
/// To execute API calls, simply call method like so
String js =
  String js= 'globalFusionCharts.chartType() == "doughnut3d" ? globalFusionCharts.chartType("doughnut2d") : globalFusionCharts.chartType("doughnut3d")';
	fusionChartsController.executeScript(js);

/// Note the js is executed as is; so when you need to pass any String data
/// then you need to keep such values within "<var>" for example '"doughnut3d"' 
/// and not "doughnut3d"

Providing realtime data to the chart #

In case you want to use realtime charts and provide periodic realtime data then you should create a StreamController and pass the reference of the StreamController to the FusionChart widget. Subsequently you can emit data which is consumed by the FusionChart. As and when the data is received over the stream, the FusionChart will get updated accordingly

final streamController = StreamController<String>();

_fusionChart2D = FusionCharts(
...
...
streamController: streamController,
);

/// Subsequently anywhere in your code you can push the new data as so
streamController.add(nextData);
