Apache eCharts integration

In recent work we were reviewing built-in and integrated charting capabilities of FM. While practical, current functionality is very limited.

In our work, we used eCharts to build dashboards for our customers. Their feedback has been very positive and ability to manage a lot of parameters by the end user has been a welcome benefit to our developers.

eCharts has become a de-facto standard for the industry. We are aware your team is preparing version 3.0. One of the reason for us to upgrade would be native integration with eCharts. 

Here are some parameters you may consider for report setting:

• custom color theme selection and integration from data
• multiple charts on a single page (summary as a pie chart for categories, columns for items)
• auto build, a function that builds the chart using various options (bar, line, combined)
• multiple tabs for different charts (has huge potential as end-users can select their preferred format)
• real-time updates
• Export of the chart only (using eCharts built-in functionality)

There is more to it 🙂

We have developers familiar with both, FM and eCharts, and can provide indispensable feedback from both, developers and end-user point of view.

eCharts is open source, high performance and has huge user base.

In our previous similar cooperation, we proposed Volkov labs to build full integration for eCharts and Grafana.  Today their business suite is the most used charting plugin in Grafana.
