current version

The Chart plugin allows to easily draw simple graphs on a wiki page.

Three graph formats are possible: line, bar and pie. In pie mode, negative values are ignored.

The browser must support SVG in order graphs to be displayed. If you are using a recent browser (Firefox, Opera, Chrome, Safari) then you should see the examples.

Usage

<<Chart width=200 height=200 legend="My legend" type=line color=green data="5, 7, 11, 3, 15" >>

        data="5, 7, 11, 3, 15"
        legend="Number of users"

Pie chart

        color=blue

Known Problems

With multiple Chart plugins on the same page the 2nd and subsequent ones will have the same width and height.
