Constructor & Destructor Documentation

__construct()

core\chart_base::__construct

(

)

Constructor.

Must not take any argument.

Most of the time you do not want to extend this, rather extend the method self::set_defaults to set the defaults on instantiation.

Member Function Documentation

add_series()

core\chart_base::add_series

(

chart_series

$serie

)

Add a series to the chart.

Parameters

chart_series

$serie

The serie.

get_labels()

core\chart_base::get_labels

(

)

Get the labels of the X axis.

Return values

string[]

get_series()

core\chart_base::get_series

(

)

Get the series.

Return values

chart_series[]

get_title()

core\chart_base::get_title

(

)

Get the title.

Return values

string

get_type()

core\chart_base::get_type

(

)

Get the chart type.

Return values

string

get_xaxes()

core\chart_base::get_xaxes

(

)

Get the X axes.

Return values

chart_axis[]

get_xaxis()

core\chart_base::get_xaxis	(		$index = 0,
			$createifnotexists = false
	)

Get an X axis.

Parameters

int	$index	The index of the axis.
bool	$createifnotexists	When true, create an instance of the axis if none exist at this index yet.

Return values

chart_axis

get_yaxes()

core\chart_base::get_yaxes

(

)

Get the Y axes.

Return values

chart_axis[]

get_yaxis()

core\chart_base::get_yaxis	(		$index = 0,
			$createifnotexists = false
	)

Get a Y axis.

Parameters

int	$index	The index of the axis.
bool	$createifnotexists	When true, create an instance of the axis if none exist at this index yet.

Return values

chart_axis

jsonSerialize()

core\chart_base::jsonSerialize

(

)

Serialize the object.

Return values

array

Reimplemented in core\chart_pie, core\chart_line, and core\chart_bar.

set_defaults()

core\chart_base::set_defaults ( )

protected

Set the defaults for this chart type.

Child classes can extend this to set default values on instantiation.

In general the constructor could be used, but this method is here to emphasize and self-document the default values set by the chart type.

Return values

void

Reimplemented in core\chart_bar.

set_labels()

core\chart_base::set_labels

(

array

$labels

)

Set the chart labels.

Parameters

string[]

$labels

The labels.

set_title()

core\chart_base::set_title

(

$title

)

Set the title.

Parameters

string

$title

The title.

set_xaxis()

core\chart_base::set_xaxis	(	chart_axis	$axis,
			$index = 0
	)

Set an X axis.

Note that this will override any predefined axis without warning.

Parameters

chart_axis	$axis	The axis.
int	$index	The index of the axis.

set_yaxis()

core\chart_base::set_yaxis	(	chart_axis	$axis,
			$index = 0
	)

Set an Y axis.

Note that this will override any predefined axis without warning.

Parameters

chart_axis	$axis	The axis.
int	$index	The index of the axis.

validate_axis()

core\chart_base::validate_axis (   $xy, chart_axis  $axis,   $index = 0  )

protected

Validate an axis.

We validate this from PHP because not doing it here could result in errors being hard to trace down. For instance, if we were to add axis at keys without another axis preceding, we would effectively contain the axes in an associative array rather than a simple array, and that would have consequences on serialisation.

Parameters

string	$xy	Accepts x or y.
chart_axis	$axis	The axis to validate.
index	$index	The index of the axis.
