Props

Property	Type	Default	Description
data	array	[]	An array of objects that contain the data of the chart (see section below).
baseline	number	null	If you want the chart to have a baseline, add its number here. Could be useful for charts that include negative values.
iterationTimeout	number	200	Number of milliseconds you want between iterations.
startAutomatically	boolean	true	Whether the visualization should start running automatically. Default is true.
startRunningTimeout	number	0	Number of milliseconds you want before running the visualization.
onRunStart	function	null	A callback function that being called once the visualization starts.
onRunEnd	function	null	A callback function that being called once the visualization ends.
showTitle	boolean	true	Whether you want to show each iteration's title.
barHeight	number	50	The height (in pixels) of each bar item.
showStartButton	boolean	false	Show a start button that triggers the animation.
startButtonText	string	'Start'	The text that will appear in the start button.
mainWrapperStyles	object	{}	Styles object for the component's main wrapper.
chartWrapperStyles	object	{}	Styles object for the chart wrapper.
baselineStyles	object	{}	Styles object for the baseline element.
iterationTitleStyles	object	{}	Styles object for the title element.
labelStyles	object	{}	Styles object for the chart's labels.
startButtonStyles	object	{}	Styles object for the start button.

Data

The data property in expected to be an array of objects. Each object will present an interation and will include the following fields:

Property	Type	Description
name	string	The name of the iteration.
values	array	An array of data objects (see below).

Each value in the values array will contain the following properties:

Property	Type	Description
id	string / number	A unique idetifier for the item. Note that it should be consistent across all interations.
label	string / React Node	The label of the item.
value	number	A numeric value of the item.
color	string / array	Set a fixed color for the item. Could be also an array of colors that will generate a gradient effect. By default, if not set, each item will get a random color.

Here's an example of a data object:

[
  {
    "name": "Round 1",
    "values": [
      {
        "id": 1,
        "label": "Test 1",
        "value": 0,
        "color": "red"
      },
      {
        "id": 2,
        "label": "Test 2",
        "value": 0,
        "color": ["yellow", "green"]
      }
    ]
  },
  {
    "name": "Round 2",
    "values": [
      {
        "id": 1,
        "label": "Test 1",
        "value": 10,
        "color": "red"
      },
      {
        "id": 2,
        "label": "Test 2",
        "value": 5,
        "color": ["yellow", "green"]
      }
    ]
  },
  {
    "name": "Round 3",
    "values": [
      {
        "id": 1,
        "label": "Test 1",
        "value": 12,
        "color": "red"
      },
      {
        "id": 2,
        "label": "Test 2",
        "value": 21,
