ZingChart Locale

This repository contains example locale variables you can include in your ZingChart library.

The locale render method option lets you change the labels used for various elements of a chart, including the context-menu, and the bug reporter menu. This can really improve usability and make your charts feel really localized. Within your JSON, but outside the graphset object, include “locale”:”MYLOCALE” in which MYLOCALE is the name used in your locale JavaScript object, which we will use to set the labels.

Example:

zingchart.i18n.en_us =  {

Installation

3. Install with npm using the command npm install zingchart.

Usage

To ease including locales into your environment, we have provided a few different ways to use into your application.

Script inclusion

1. After zingchart has been loaded, include the desired locale into your html file after zingchart has been loaded.

   ...
   <script src="./path/to/zingchart.min.js"></script>
   <script src="./path/to/locales/zingchart-i18n-en-us.min.js"></script>
   ...

2. Reference the locale key from the file loaded in your json. In this case, 'en_us' will be our key

     zingchart.render({
         id: 'myChart',
         data: {
         locale: 'en_us'
         graphset:[{
             type: 'line',
             series: [{
                 values: [1,2,3,4,5];
             }]
         }]
       }
     });

Including it as a module (npm)

This method is useful for those who want to package up their locales with a build tool such as browserify.

1. After zingchart has been loaded, include the desired module and store it into a variable inside of zingchart.i18n..

     var zingchart = require('zingchart');
     zingchart.i18n.en_us = require('zingchart-locale').en_us;

2. Reference the locale key from the file loaded in your json. In this case, 'en_us' will be our key.

     zingchart.render({
         id: 'myChart',
         data: {
         locale: 'en_us'
         graphset:[{
             type: 'line',
             series: [{
                 values: [1,2,3,4,5];
             }]
         }]
       }
     });

Contributing

Please follow the example file zingchart-i18n-en-us.js as a template which has the required structure necessary for the bower and npm package managers. Your filename should be prefixed with zingchart-i18n- and an appropriate language abbreviation, while the variable with underscores as necessary e.g. zingchart.i18n.en_us
