Types of bar chart

JavaScript Bar Charts are among the most common chart types that are used to compare frequency, count, total, or average of data in different categories with a horizontal bar. They are ideal for showing variations in the value of an item over time.

Default bar chart

To render a bar series, use series type as Bar and inject BarSeries module using Chart.Inject(BarSeries) method.

Chart.Inject(BarSeries);

let chart: Chart = new Chart({

        series: [

            {

                type: 'Bar',

           }

        ], 

});

chart.appendTo('#container');

Stacked bar chart

JavaScript Stacked bar charts are charts with Y values stacked over one another in the series order. Shows the relation between individual values to total sum of the points.To render a stacked bar series, use series type as StackingBar and inject StackingBarSeries module using Chart.Inject(StackingBarSeries) method.

Chart.Inject(StackingBarSeries);

let chart: Chart = new Chart({

        series: [

            {

                type: ‘StackingBar’,

           }

        ], 

});

chart.appendTo('#container');

100% stacked bar chart

JavaScript 100% stacked bar chart displays multiple series of data as stacked bars, ensuring that the cumulative proportion of each stacked element always totals 100%. Hence, the y-axis will always be rendered with the range 0–100. To render a 100% stacked bar series, use series type as StackingBar100 and inject StackingBarSeries module using Chart.Inject(StackingBarSeries) method.

Chart.Inject(StackingBarSeries);

let chart: Chart = new Chart({

        series: [

            {

                type: ‘StackingBar100’,

           }

        ], 

});

chart.appendTo('#container');
