C3: Loading json for multiple data lines timeseries chart

[gjj]

Hey there!

I was wondering if it's possible to load json data to create a chart with multiple data lines with its x-axis as a timeseries?

I used this example here (see https://groups.google.com/d/msg/c3js/UDQB8JorDho/up0gSEQQavUJ) but I realise the json parser is still severely limited to only certain formats, tried to crawl the Interwebs for examples but no luck. Was wondering if there are any workarounds?

Thanks! :)

Is this what you're trying? http://jsfiddle.net/7kYJu/424/

And I think it would be better to parse JSON when loading by yourself instead of use c3 JSON interface because there is a limitation of format to load.

Hey yeah, thanks! Got it working! :+1:

I am also having an issue with JSON where if a point is skipped in the timeseries, the line is not drawn. The example masayuki0812 provided above on JSFiddle is showing the same issue. Lines are not drawn for data2.

Found the problem. #516

This still seems broken in the jsfiddle above, with the latest master code. http://jsfiddle.net/7kYJu/424/

@keyscores Huh, right you are. Reopening...

I modified that JSFiddle to use the syntax as suggested by @masayuki0812 in #516 and it renders properly.

You can probably close this.

Closing as resolved.
