HorizGauge

Draw a horizontal svg gauge.

Play with the settings of the horiz-gauge by visiting the horiz-gauge playground.

Install in your Node project with

npm i horiz-gauge

and use it inside your code via

const gauge = require('horiz-gauge');

or, alternatively

import gauge from 'horize-gauge';

Create the new gauge objects via

let diagram = gauge(settings);

Parameters

• settings Object The configuration object for the gauge. All data for the gauge is provided with this object.
  • settings.svg Object The DOM tree element, wich must be an svg tag. The gauge will be attached to this DOM tree element. Example:

    settings.svg = document.getElementById('gauge');

    'gauge' is the id of a svg tag.
  • settings.id String? The id of a domtree svg element, to which the gauge will be bound to. The id will only be used in case settings.svg is not provided.
  • settings.fraction Number? Progress indication for the gauge. A value of 0 is indicating no progress, 1.0 is indicating completion. Default is 0.0
  • settings.fractionLabel String? A label to show for the progress fraction. Default is ''.
  • settings.fractionColor String? The color for the fraction indication. Default is '#222'
  • settings.fractionExceedColor String? The color to use in case fraction > 1.0.
  • settings.emptyColor String? Color for the non-progress area of the gauge. Default is borderColor
  • settings.emptyPattern Boolean? When true, the empty area will be a pattern made of fractionColor and emptyColor
  • settings.progressWidth Number? Width in pixels for the progress gauge without borders and margins. Default is 200.
  • settings.progressHeight Number? Height in pixels for the progress gauge without borders and margins. Default is fontSize + 2.
  • settings.borderColor String? Color of the border of the progress gauge. Default is '#ccc'
  • settings.borderWidth Number? Width in pixels for the border of the progress gauge. Default is 0
  • settings.fontSize Number? Size in pixels for all labels. Default is 16
  • settings.fontFamily String? The font to use for all labels. Default is sans-serif.
  • settings.margin {top: Number, right: Number, bottom: Number, left: Number}? The margin for the gauge. Markers and labels are drawn inside of the margin. Default values are:

    settings.margin = {
    top: 0,
    right: 0,
    bottom: 0,
    left: 0 }
    

  • settings.leftLabel {label: String, color: String, textAnchor: String}? A label to put to the left of the progress gauge. Must fit into the left margin. Allowed values for textAnchor are 'start', 'middle', 'end'. Default values are:

    settings.leftLabel = {
    label: '',
    color: '#222',
    textAnchor: 'start'
    }
    

  • settings.rightLabel {label: String, color: String, textAnchor: String}? A label to put to the right of the progress gauge. Must fit into the right margin. Allowed values for textAnchor are 'start', 'middle', 'end'. Default values are:

    settings.rightLabel = {
    label: '',
    color: '#222',
    textAnchor: 'start'
    }
    

  • settings.markers Array<{fraction: Number, label: String, color: String, position: String, distance: Number, textAnchor: String}>? Highlight fractions outside of the gauge. Each marker is an object with a fraction for the marker and some optional settings. A marker must fit into the margins of the gauge. Allowed values for position are 'top', 'bottom' Allowed values for textAnchor are 'start', 'middle', 'end' Example:

    settings.markers = [
    { fraction: 0.0, label: 'G1', distance: 20 },
    { fraction: 0.2, label: 'G2' },
    { fraction: 0.8, label: 'G3', color: 'lightgray', position: 'bottom', textAnchor: 'start'}];

  • settings.dividers Array<{fraction: Number, color: String}>? Highlight fractions inside of the gauge. Each divider is an object with a fraction and an optional color. The default for color is emptyColor. Example:

    settings.markers = [
    { fraction: 0.1 },
    { fraction: 0.2, color: 'green' },
    { fraction: 0.8, color: 'red'}];
