Charts and Graphs in Drupal 7

Wed, 2013-03-27 11:07 | Franco

I have been struggling to find a solution to creating graphs from views in Drupal 7 for some time and recently while working on the SPARCS project and at long last I have done the hard work to get it going.

If you want to just create a simple graph easily, use the CHART module. This will use the google charts api and draw simple but many different graphs:

drush dl chart
drush en chart_views

if you need a bit more control of the graph but dont need as many different kinds, you will want to use google_chart_tools. The image above shows the use of google_chart_tools from views.

drush dl google_chart_tools
drush en google_chart_tools_views
