Installation

  • Since v5.0

    # if you use npm
    npm install echarts -S
    npm install ngx-echarts -S
    
    # or if you use yarn
    yarn add echarts
    yarn add ngx-echarts
  • If you need ECharts GL support, please install it first:

    npm install echarts-gl -S
    
    # or
    yarn add echarts-gl
  • Import other extensions such as themes or echarts-gl in your main.ts: ECharts Extensions

Upgrade from v4.x

  1. import echarts and provide it in NgxEchartsModule.forRoot({ echarts }).
  2. NgxEchartsCoreModule is removed.

Usage

Please refer to the demo page.

Standalone

import NgxEchartsDirective and provideEcharts. Or you can use provideEchartsCore to do treeshaking custom build.

import { NgxEchartsDirective, provideEcharts } from 'ngx-echarts';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  standalone: true,
  imports: [CommonModule, NgxEchartsDirective],
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.scss'],
  providers: [
    provideEcharts(),
  ]
})
export class AppComponent {}

NgModule

import NgxEchartsModule:

import { NgxEchartsModule } from 'ngx-echarts';

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    NgxEchartsModule.forRoot({
      /**
       * This will import all modules from echarts.
       * If you only need custom modules,
       * please refer to [Custom Build] section.
       */
      echarts: () => import('echarts'), // or import('./path-to-my-custom-echarts')
    }),
  ],
})
export class AppModule {}

The echarts library will be imported only when it gets called the first time thanks to the function that uses the native import.

You can also directly pass the echarts instead which will slow down initial rendering because it will load the whole echarts into your main bundle.

import * as echarts from 'echarts';
import { NgxEchartsModule } from 'ngx-echarts';

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    NgxEchartsModule.forRoot({ echarts }),
  ],
})
export class AppModule {}

Directive

use echarts directive in a div which has pre-defined height. (From v2.0, it has default height: 400px)

  • html:
<div echarts [options]="chartOption" class="demo-chart"></div>
  • css:
.demo-chart {
  height: 400px;
}
  • component:
import { EChartsOption } from 'echarts';

// ...

chartOption: EChartsOption = {
  xAxis: {
    type: 'category',
    data: ['Mon', 'Tue', 'Wed', 'Thu', 'Fri', 'Sat', 'Sun'],
  },
  yAxis: {
    type: 'value',
  },
  series: [
    {
      data: [820, 932, 901, 934, 1290, 1330, 1320],
      type: 'line',
    },
  ],
};

API

Directive

echarts directive support following input properties:

Input Type Default Description
[options] object null The same as the options on the official demo site.
[merge] object null Used to update a part of the options, especially helpful when you need to update the chart data. In fact, the value of merge will be used in echartsInstance.setOption() with notMerge = false. Refer to ECharts documentation for details.
[loading] boolean false Used to toggle the echarts loading animation when your data is not ready.
[autoResize] boolean true If set to true, the chart will be automatically resized when the window's width is changed.
[initOpts] object null The value of [initOpts] will be used in echarts.init(). It may contain devicePixelRatio, renderer, width or height properties. Refer to ECharts documentation for details.
[theme] string null Used it to initialize echarts with theme. The theme file must also be imported in main.ts.
[loadingOpts] object null Input an object to customize the loading style. Refer to ECharts documentation for details.

By default, loadingOpts is:

{
  text: 'loading',
  color: '#c23531',
  textColor: '#000',
  maskColor: 'rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8)',
  zlevel: 0
}

ECharts API

If you need to access parts of the ECharts API such as echarts.graphic, please import it from echarts. For example:

import { graphic } from 'echarts';

new graphic.LinearGradient(/* ... */);

ECharts Instance

echartsInstance is exposed (since v1.1.6) in the (chartInit) event, enabling you to directly call functions like: resize(), showLoading(), etc. For example:

  • html:
<div echarts class="demo-chart" [options]="chartOptions" (chartInit)="onChartInit($event)"></div>
  • component:
onChartInit(ec) {
  this.echartsInstance = ec;
}

resizeChart() {
  if (this.echartsInstance) {
    this.echartsInstance.resize();
  }
}

ECharts Extensions

Import echarts theme files or other extension files after you have imported echarts core. For example:

import * as echarts from 'echarts';

/** echarts extensions: */
import 'echarts-gl';
import 'echarts/theme/macarons.js';
import 'echarts/dist/extension/bmap.min.js';

Service

NgxEchartsService has been obsolete since v4.0

Events

As ECharts supports the 'click', 'dblclick', 'mousedown', 'mouseup', 'mouseover', 'mouseout', and 'globalout' mouse events, our ngx-echarts directive also supports the same mouse events but with an additional chart prefix. For example:

  • html:
<div echarts class="demo-chart" [options]="chartOptions" (chartClick)="onChartClick($event)"></div>
  • The '$event' is same with the 'params' that ECharts dispatches.

It supports following event outputs:

@Output Event
chartInit Emitted when the chart is initialized
chartClick echarts event: 'click'
chartDblClick echarts event: 'dblclick'
chartMouseDown echarts event: 'mousedown'
chartMouseMove echarts event: 'mousemove'
chartMouseUp echarts event: 'mouseup'
chartMouseOver echarts event: 'mouseover'
chartMouseOut echarts event: 'mouseout'
chartGlobalOut echarts event: 'globalout'
chartContextMenu echarts event: 'contextmenu'
chartHighlight echarts event: 'highlight'
chartDownplay echarts event: 'downplay'
chartSelectChanged echarts event: 'selectchanged'
chartLegendSelectChanged echarts event: 'legendselectchanged'
chartLegendSelected echarts event: 'legendselected'
chartLegendUnselected echarts event: 'legendunselected'
chartLegendLegendSelectAll echarts event: 'legendselectall'
chartLegendLegendInverseSelect echarts event: 'legendinverseselect'
chartLegendScroll echarts event: 'legendscroll'
chartDataZoom echarts event: 'datazoom'
chartDataRangeSelected echarts event: 'datarangeselected'
chartGraphRoam echarts event: 'graphroam'
chartGeoRoam echarts event: 'georoam'
chartTreeRoam echarts event: 'treeroam'
chartTimelineChanged echarts event: 'timelinechanged'
chartTimelinePlayChanged echarts event: 'timelineplaychanged'
chartRestore echarts event: 'restore'
chartDataViewChanged echarts event: 'dataviewchanged'
chartMagicTypeChanged echarts event: 'magictypechanged'
chartGeoSelectChanged echarts event: 'geoselectchanged'
chartGeoSelected echarts event: 'geoselected'
chartGeoUnselected echarts event: 'geounselected'
chartAxisAreaSelected echarts event: 'axisareaselected'
chartBrush echarts event: 'brush'
chartBrushEnd echarts event: 'brushend'
chartBrushSelected echarts event: 'brushselected'
chartGlobalCursorTaken echarts event: 'globalcursortaken'

Custom Build

Treeshaking Custom Build

Since version 5.0.1 ECharts supports Treeshaking with NPM.

The app.modules.ts should look like this:

import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { HttpClientModule } from '@angular/common/http';

import { NgxEchartsDirective, provideEchartsCore } from 'ngx-echarts';

import { AppComponent } from './app.component';

// Import the echarts core module, which provides the necessary interfaces for using echarts.
import * as echarts from 'echarts/core';

// Import bar charts, all suffixed with Chart
import { BarChart } from 'echarts/charts';

// Import the tooltip, title, rectangular coordinate system, dataset and transform components
import {
  TitleComponent,
  TooltipComponent,
  GridComponent,
  DatasetComponent,
  TransformComponent
} from 'echarts/components';

// Features like Universal Transition and Label Layout
import { LabelLayout, UniversalTransition } from 'echarts/features';

// Import the Canvas renderer
// Note that including the CanvasRenderer or SVGRenderer is a required step
import { CanvasRenderer } from 'echarts/renderers';

// Import the theme
import 'echarts/theme/macarons.js';

// Register the required components
echarts.use([
  BarChart,
  TitleComponent,
  TooltipComponent,
  GridComponent,
  DatasetComponent,
  TransformComponent,
  LabelLayout,
  UniversalTransition,
  CanvasRenderer
]);

@NgModule({
  declarations: [AppComponent],
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    HttpClientModule,
    // import standalone directive:
    NgxEchartsDirective,
  ],
  providers: [{ 
    // Provide custom builded ECharts core:
    provideEchartsCore({ echarts })
  }],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent],
})
export class AppModule {}

Legacy Custom Build

Please refer to ECharts Documentation for more details.

If you want to produce a custom build of ECharts, prepare a file like custom-echarts.ts:

// custom-echarts.ts
export * from 'echarts/src/echarts';

import 'echarts/src/chart/line';
import 'echarts/src/chart/bar';
// component examples:
import 'echarts/src/component/tooltip';
import 'echarts/src/component/title';
import 'echarts/src/component/toolbox';

And then inject it in your NgxEchartsModule:

import { NgxEchartsModule } from 'ngx-echarts';
import * as echarts from './custom-echarts';

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    NgxEchartsModule.forRoot({
      echarts,
    }),
  ],
})
export class AppModule {}

And if you want to use the global echarts object, please import it from lib or src instead:

import * as echarts from 'echarts/lib/echarts';

If you need to import theme files, remember to change the 'echarts' path to 'echarts/lib/echarts', for example:

// ... part of echarts/theme/dark.js:
function (root, factory) {
    if (typeof define === 'function' && define.amd) {
        // AMD. Register as an anonymous module.
        define(['exports', 'echarts/lib/echarts'], factory);
    } else if (typeof exports === 'object' && typeof exports.nodeName !== 'string') {
        // CommonJS
        factory(exports, require('echarts/lib/echarts'));
    } else {
        // Browser globals
        factory({}, root.echarts);
    }
}

Custom Locale

You can change the chart locale registering a built-in locale (located in node_modules/echarts/lib/i18n/) or a custom locale object. To register a locale, you will need to change the module that echart is being imported (usually app.module.ts).

import {NgxEchartsModule} from "ngx-echarts";
import * as echarts from 'echarts/core';
import langCZ from 'echarts/lib/i18n/langCZ';

echarts.registerLocale("CZ", langCZ)

@NgModule({
  imports: [NgxEchartsModule.forRoot({echarts})],
  declarations: [],
  providers: [],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})

and in your HTML file use:

<div echarts [initOpts]="{ locale: 'CZ' }" [options]="options" class="demo-chart"></div>
