Interactive Line Chart

Ninety days of daily visitors as one line, with header buttons that switch between desktop and mobile and show each total, in Svelte with TanStack Charts.

About

Use it when there are two series but only one should be on screen, and the totals matter as much as the shape. The header doubles as a summary: each button shows its series' total for the period. For both series at once, use the Multiple Line Chart; for a filled look with a range select, the Interactive Area Chart.

A monotone line runs through 91 days, April to June 2024, without dots. The x axis prints a date every week or two, and the tooltip shows the full date and the value, labeled Page Views. The chart is 250px tall and fills the card's width.

Customize

  • The rows are daily, { date, desktop, mobile }. One lineY reads x: "date" and y from the active series, and strokes with that series' var(--color-<key>).
  • The active series is state (React useState, a Vue ref, Svelte $state or a Solid signal) and the definition is derived from it, so a click rebuilds the line and the chart tweens to it.
  • The totals are summed once from chartData for the buttons; they don't depend on the active series.
  • Ninety-one dates don't fit as labels. The x axis thins them with tickLabels: { thin: { minGap: 32 } } and prints the rest as Apr 10 through its tick format. A crosshair({ y: false }) first in marks draws the hover line.
  • ChartContainer gets aspect-auto h-[250px] w-full on its class; its tooltip passes a labelFormatter for the full date and nameKey: "views" for the Page Views label.

FAQ

How does the series switch work?

Each header button sets the active key, desktop or mobile, held in React useState, a Vue ref, Svelte $state or a Solid signal. The definition is derived from that key, so the line's y and its var(--color-<key>) stroke change together, and the line tweens to the new values.

How do I add a third series?

Add the field to every row, an entry in chartConfig with a label and a --chart-N color, the key to the list the header buttons are built from, and its sum to the total object beside the definition.

How do I add a date range?

Keep the range in state next to the series, filter chartData by date before the definition reads it, and add a select, as the Interactive Area Chart does with its 7, 30 and 90 day options.

Why don't all the dates show on the axis?

Ninety-one labels would overlap. The x axis's tickLabels: { thin: { minGap: 32 } } drops any label closer than 32px to the one before, as Recharts' minTickGap does, and its tick format prints the rest as Apr 10. The tooltip shows the full date for any day you hover or reach with the arrow keys.

Why does the tooltip say Page Views, not Desktop?

ChartContainer's tooltip passes nameKey: "views", and chartConfig.views holds the label Page Views with no color. The header already says which series is on, so the tooltip names what's counted. Its labelFormatter prints the full date above it.

Are the header buttons accessible?

They're native buttons, so Tab reaches them and Enter or Space switches the series; each one reads as its label and total. The chart after them takes focus too: the arrow keys walk through the days, and Home and End jump to the first and last.

tooltip?(ChartTooltipContentOptions & { class?: string }) | false

ChartTooltipContent's options (indicator, hideLabel, labelFormatter…) for the default body, or false for TanStack's own tooltip body.

Type
(ChartTooltipContentOptions & { class?: string }) | false
renderTooltip?Snippet<[ChartTooltipBodySnippetContext]>

A whole tooltip body of your own, in place of ChartTooltipContent: it gets the focused points (each with its datum, group and color). A snippet.

Type
Snippet<[ChartTooltipBodySnippetContext]>
defaultIndex?number

The category whose tooltip shows before any pointer, as Recharts' defaultIndex.

height?number

A fixed height in pixels for the chart, in place of the container's.

aspectRatio?number

A width-to-height ratio for the chart, in place of the container's height.

initialWidth?number

The width the chart renders at before it's measured.

onFocusChange?(point: ChartPoint | null) => void

Called as the focused point changes: a pointer, a key or a tap.

Type
(point: ChartPoint | null) => void
onFocusGroupChange?(points: readonly ChartPoint[]) => void

Called with every point at the focused category (a stacked or grouped chart's).

Type
(points: readonly ChartPoint[]) => void
onSelect?(point: ChartPoint | null) => void

Called when a point is clicked or picked with Enter.

Type
(point: ChartPoint | null) => void
CSS variableType

Each config key's color (its theme color in light and dark), set on the container: the marks paint with var(--color-<key>).

ChartTooltipContent

<div>

PropType
pointsreadonly ChartPoint[]

The focused points, from the tooltip's context. ChartContainer passes them to its default body; a body of your own passes its context's.

labelKey?string

The datum field (or config key) the label is read from, looked up in config.

nameKey?string

The datum field (or config key) each row's series is read from: a pie's browser.
