Chart

Beautiful charts. Built using Unovis. Copy and paste into your apps.

Introducing Charts. A collection of chart components that you can copy and paste into your apps.

Charts are designed to look great out of the box. They work well with the other components and are fully customizable to fit your project.

Browse the Charts Library.

Component

We use Unovis under the hood.

We designed the chart component with composition in mind. You build your charts using Unovis components and bring in custom components, such as ChartTooltipContent, when and where you need it.

import { VisArea, VisTooltip } from "@unovis/solid"
 
import {
  ChartContainer,
  ChartCrosshair,
  ChartTooltipContent,
} from "@/components/ui/charts"
 
const MyChart = () => {
  return (
    <ChartContainer data={data} type="xy" config={chartConfig}>
      <VisArea
        ...
      />
      <ChartCrosshair
       ...
        template={(props) => (
          <ChartTooltipContent labelKey="month" indicator="line" {...props} />
        )}
      />
      <VisTooltip ... />
    </ChartContainer>
  )
}
export default MyChart

Installation

Run the following command to install chart.tsx

pnpm dlx shadcn-solid@latest add chart

Check the Manual tab for the CSS file based on your CSS framework

Chart Config

The chart config is where you define the labels, icons and colors for a chart.

It is intentionally decoupled from chart data.

This allows you to share config and color tokens between charts. It can also works independently for cases where your data or color tokens live remotely or in a different format.

import { Monitor } from "lucide-solid"
 
import { type ChartConfig } from "@/components/ui/chart"
 
const chartConfig = {
  desktop: {
    label: "Desktop",
    icon: Monitor,
    // A color like 'hsl(220, 98%, 61%)' or 'var(--color-name)'
    color: "#2563eb",
    // OR a theme object with 'light' and 'dark' keys
    theme: {
      light: "#2563eb",
      dark: "#dc2626",
    },
  },
} satisfies ChartConfig

Theming

Charts has built-in support for theming. You can use css variables (recommended) or color values in any color format, such as hex, hsl or oklch.

CSS Variables

Define your colors in your css file

app.css
@layer base {
    :root {
    --background: 0 0% 100%;
    --foreground: 240 10% 3.9%;
    // ...
    --chart-1: 12 76% 61%;
    --chart-2: 173 58% 39%;
    }
 
    [data-kb-theme="dark"] {
        --background: 240 10% 3.9%;
        --foreground: 0 0% 100%;
        // ...
        --chart-1: 220 70% 50%;
        --chart-2: 160 60% 45%;
    }
}

Add the color to your chartConfig

const chartConfig = {
  desktop: {
    label: "Desktop",
    color: "hsl(var(--chart-1))",
  },
  mobile: {
    label: "Mobile",
    color: "hsl(var(--chart-2))",
  },
} satisfies ChartConfig

hex, hsl or oklch

You can also define your colors directly in the chart config. Use the color format you prefer.

const chartConfig = {
  desktop: {
    label: "Desktop",
    color: "#2563eb",
  },
} satisfies ChartConfig

Using Colors

To use the theme colors in your chart, reference the colors using the format var(--color-KEY).

Components

<VisArea ... color="var(--color-desktop)" />

Chart Data

const data = [
  { browser: "chrome", visitors: 275, fill: "var(--color-chrome)" },
  { browser: "safari", visitors: 200, fill: "var(--color-safari)" },
]

Tooltip

A chart tooltip contains a label, name, indicator and value. You can use a combination of these to customize your tooltip.

You can turn on/off any of these using the hideLabel, hideIndicator props and customize the indicator style using the indicator prop.

Use labelKey and nameKey to use a custom key for the tooltip label and name.

Chart comes with the <ChartCrosshair> and <ChartTooltipContent> components. You can use these two components to add custom tooltips to your chart.

import { ChartCrosshair, ChartTooltipContent } from "@/components/ui/chart"
<ChartCrosshair
  template={(props) => (
    <ChartTooltipContent labelKey="month" indicator="line" {...props} />
  )}
/>

Or

<VisTooltip
  triggers={{
    [StackedBar.selectors.bar]: (d: DataRecord, x) => {
      const container = document.createElement("div")
      const Component = () => (
        <ChartTooltipContent
          data={d}
          x={x}
          config={chartConfig}
          labelKey="month"
        />
      )
      render(() => <Component />, container)
      return container.innerHTML
    },
  }}
/>

Props

Use the following props to customize the tooltip.

PropTypeDescription
labelKeystringThe config or data key to use for the label.
nameKeystringThe config or data key to use for the name.
indicatordot line or dashedThe indicator style for the tooltip.
hideLabelbooleanWhether to hide the label.
hideIndicatorbooleanWhether to hide the indicator.

Colors

Colors are automatically referenced from the chart config.

Custom

To use a custom key for tooltip label and names, use the labelKey and nameKey props.

const data = [
  { browser: "chrome", visitors: 187, fill: "var(--color-chrome)" },
  { browser: "safari", visitors: 200, fill: "var(--color-safari)" },
]
 
const chartConfig = {
  visitors: {
    label: "Total Visitors",
  },
  chrome: {
    label: "Chrome",
    color: "hsl(var(--chart-1))",
  },
  safari: {
    label: "Safari",
    color: "hsl(var(--chart-2))",
  },
} satisfies ChartConfig
<ChartCrosshair
  template={(props) => <ChartTooltipContent labelKey="visitors" {...props} />}
/>

This will use Total Visitors for label and Chrome and Safari for the tooltip names.
