Each marker is an object with a date for the marker and an optional label. Example:settings.markers = [ { date: '2018-09-03', label: 'M1' }, { date: '2018-09-10', label: 'M2' }];
  • settings.drawOptions Array<String>? An array to determine the parts to be drawn.

  • settings.data {keys: Array<String>, entries: Array<Object>} The data for the diagram. Example:settings.data = { keys: ['Low', 'Medium', 'High', 'Highest'], entries: [ { date: '2018-09-03', Highest: 0, High: 0, Medium: 0, Low: 0 }, { date: '2018-09-04', Highest: 1, High: 0, Medium: 0, Low: 0 }, { date: '2018-09-05', Highest: 1, High: 1, Medium: 0, Low: 0 }, { date: '2018-09-06', Highest: 1, High: 0, Medium: 1, Low: 1 }, { date: '2018-09-07', Highest: 2, High: 1, Medium: 0, Low: 2 }, { date: '2018-09-08', Highest: 1, High: 1, Medium: 2, Low: 2 }, { date: '2018-09-09', Highest: 0, High: 0, Medium: 1, Low: 5 }, { date: '2018-09-10', Highest: 1, High: 1, Medium: 0, Low: 5 } ]}Each entry object must contain a date and the counts for the keys. Each key will be rendered as a stacked layer. The rendering of the stacked layers will follow the order of the keys. Hereby left to right keys leads to stacked areas from bottom to top.
