c3-rails

c3 is a D3-based reusable chart library that enables deeper integration of charts into web applications.

c3-rails provides c3 for Rails 4 (it might work with Rails 3)

Installation

To install, add the following line to your Gemfile:

gem 'c3-rails'

Then add these to their respective file:

app/assets/javascripts/applications.js:

//= require c3

app/assets/stylesheets/applications.css:

*= require c3

Now you've included c3 into your rails project.

But wait, there's more!

Dependency: D3

c3 requires D3 which c3-rails does not include, to get D3 installed try one of the following gems:

• d3_rails
• d3-rails
• d3js-rails

or you could copy d3.js to your assets/javascripts manually which would defeat the purpose of having these gems in the first place...

Now you're ready to use c3 in any page that load assets handled by the asset pipeline.

Alternative install

If you want to have access to all of c3's source files you should add this line instead:

gem 'c3-rails', :git => 'https://github.com/SunnyLi/c3-rails', :submodules => true

Then you'll be able to include files like

    //= require c3/c3
    //= require c3/extensions/js/c3ext
    
    *= require c3/c3
    *= require c3/htdocs/css/bootstrap.min.css
