This package uses the following technologies (required) to generate Livewire charts:

  • Laravel Livewire v2
  • Alpine JS
  • Apex Charts

Once you have those requirements installed and set up, here’s how easy it can be to create a chart with this package on the backend:

$columnChartModel = (new ColumnChartModel())
->setTitle('Expenses by Type')
->addColumn('Food', 100, '#f6ad55')
->addColumn('Shopping', 200, '#fc8181')
->addColumn('Travel', 300, '#90cdf4')
;

Then on the frontend, you pass the variable to blade:

<livewire:livewire-column-chart
:column-chart-model="$columnChartModel"
/>

The code above are examples taken directly from the readme. Using the example code, you would have a chart that looks like the following:

At the time of writing, livewire-charts supports three types of charts:

  • Line chart
  • Column chart (as seen above)
  • Pie Chart

You can also enable interactions and provide listeners that will fire in Livewire components, along with the ability to make charts reactive. Be sure to check out the livewire-charts readme for full details on usage.
