I currently have graphs on my Rails app that I implement using Chartkick. The following code is what I have in my view to render the actual graph. The path graphs_site_hot_water_status_path(@site) connects to a controller where I have all the logic for how my data is being queried from the database, which ideally would stay the same as it is quite complex.
<%= line_chart graphs_site_hot_water_status_path(@site), colors: ['#AE42CE', '#DD6539','#093FF7', '#B2461F', '#A8BCFD', '#E68F6F'], refresh: @refresh_rate, ytitle: t(".fahrenheit"), xtitle: t(".timestamp") %>
My goal is to be able to format my graph using Highcharts customization, but I can't figure out how to input my data the same way when using Highcharts because I can't pass it into Javascript using Ruby code. Is there a way to pull my data in the same manner I currently am, but without using Chartkick?
I think you could use daru-view to use Highcharts with Ruby on Rails. For more about that, you can read these articles:
