How to Write a Chart Variation

This guide explains how to create new chart variations for the ECharts SVG Rendering Framework. The framework supports multiple variation types (ECharts Python, ECharts JavaScript, and D3.js), and uses a variation system to render various chart types.

Variation Types

The framework supports three types of variations:

1. ECharts Python Variations (echarts_py/): Python modules that generate ECharts options
2. ECharts JavaScript Variations (echarts-js/): JavaScript files that create ECharts instances
3. D3.js Variations (d3-js/): JavaScript files that create D3.js charts

Variation Requirements

All variations must include a requirements section at the beginning of the file. This section defines metadata for the variation and specifies the data requirements.

Requirements Format

The requirements section must follow this exact structure:

REQUIREMENTS_BEGIN
{
    "chart_type": "Your Chart Type",
    "chart_name": "unique_chart_name",
    "is_composite": false,
    "required_fields": ["field1", "field2"],
    "required_fields_type": [["numerical", "categorical"], ["numerical"]],
    "required_fields_range": [[1, 10], [5, 100]],
    "required_fields_icons": ["x"],
    "required_other_icons": ["primary", "man"],
    "required_fields_colors": ["x"],
    "required_other_colors": ["primary", "secondary"],
    "supported_effects": ["shadow", "radius_corner"],
    "min_height": 300,
    "min_width": 400,
    "background": "no",
    "icon_mark": "none",
    "icon_label": "none",
    "has_x_axis": "yes",
    "has_y_axis": "yes"
}
REQUIREMENTS_END

Key Requirements Fields

注意：requirement字段仅为描述用途，所有的信息都是关于你的variation的描述信息。你不需要根据里面的值决定你的绘制。

Field	Description	Example
chart_type	图表类型，用于模板选择	"Bar Chart"
chart_name	模板的唯一标识符	"simple_bar_chart_01"
is_composite	是否为复合图表	false
required_fields	图表所需的数据字段数组 - 如果is_composite=false，是一维数组 - 如果is_composite=true，是二维数组	普通：["x", "y", "group"] 复合：[["x", "y"], ["x", "y2"]]
required_fields_type	每个字段允许的数据类型 - 二维数组，每个字段可以有多种可选类型 - 如果is_composite=true，是三维数组	普通：[["categorical"], ["numerical"], ["categorical"]] 复合：[[["categorical"], ["numerical"]], [["categorical"], ["numerical"]]]
required_fields_range	字段值的范围限制 - 对于numerical类型，限制数值范围 - 对于categorical/temporal类型，限制不同值的数量	[[1, 10], [5, 100]]
required_fields_icons	指定需要为哪些字段提供图标，与required_fields中的字段对应	["x"]
required_other_icons	需要的其他图标 - 使用primary表示主题相关图标 - 使用具体名称表示特定图标	["primary", "man"]
required_fields_colors	指定需要为哪些字段提供颜色	["x"]
required_other_colors	需要的其他颜色，使用具体名称表示特定的颜色需求。primary表示chart的主题色，secondary表示composite chart中的第二种颜色（一般用不到）	["primary", "secondary"]
supported_effects	模板支持的视觉效果，只列出实际实现的效果	["shadow", "radius_corner"]
min_height	图表的最小高度（像素）	300
min_width	图表的最小宽度（像素）	400
background	数据可视化区域的背景风格 - no: 没有 - styled: 具有条纹、网格线或参考线	"no"
icon_mark	如何在可视化中使用小图标与数据标记 - overlay: 小图标放置在mark上（例如，条形顶部的图标） - replace: 使用图标代替mark（例如，用堆叠的图标表示条形） - side: 图标放置在数据标记旁边进行注释 - none: 没有使用图标与标记	"none"
icon_label	如何将图标集成到坐标轴标签中 - side: 图标与坐标轴文本结合使用（例如，国家名称前的国旗） - replace: 使用图标代替文本标签 - none: 纯文本标签，没有图标	"none"
has_x_axis	图表是否显示X轴 - yes: 显示X轴 - no: 不显示X轴	"yes"
has_y_axis	图表是否显示Y轴 - yes: 显示Y轴 - no: 不显示Y轴	"yes"

图标使用说明

在模板代码中，可以通过以下方式获取图标：

1. 字段相关图标：通过dataJson["images"]["field"][value]获取，格式为base64的ImageUrl

   // 直接获取字段图标
   // 假定required_fields_icons = ["x"], 而x的取值包括US和China
   const usIcon = dataJson.images.field["US"];
   const chinaIcon = dataJson.images.field["China"];
   

2. 其他图标：通过dataJson["images"]["other"][iconName]获取，格式为base64的ImageUrl

   // 直接获取其他图标
   // 假定required_other_icons = ["primary", "man"]
   const topicIcon = dataJson.images.other["primary"];
   const manIcon = dataJson.images.other["man"];
   

在variation的requirements中指定了required_fields_icons和required_other_icons后，框架会保证这些图标在input data中可用，无需进行错误处理或提供默认值。

颜色使用说明

在模板代码中，可以通过以下方式获取颜色：

1. 字段相关颜色：通过dataJson["colors"]["field"][value]获取，为颜色代码值（如"#FF0000"或"red"）

   // 直接获取颜色
   // 假定required_fields_colors = ["x"], 而x的取值包括US和China
   const usColor = dataJson.colors.field["US"];
   const chinaColor = dataJson.colors.field["China"];
   

2. 其他颜色：通过dataJson["colors"]["other"]获取，为颜色代码值

   // 直接获取颜色
   // 假定required_other_colors = ["primary", "secondary"]
   const primaryColor = dataJson.colors.other.primary;
   const secondaryColor = dataJson.colors.other.secondary;
   

3. 其他通用颜色：可以通过dataJson["colors"]["available_colors"]获取可用的颜色数组

   // 获取颜色数组
   const availableColors = dataJson.colors.available_colors;
   const firstColor = availableColors[0]; // 第一个可用颜色
   

4. 背景和文本颜色：通过dataJson["colors"]中的相应字段获取

   // 直接获取颜色
   const backgroundColor = dataJson.colors.background_color;
   const textColor = dataJson.colors.text_color;
   

在variation的requirements中指定了required_fields_colors和required_other_colors后，框架会保证这些颜色在input data中可用，无需进行错误处理或提供默认值。

复合图表说明

如果is_composite设置为true，表示这是一个复合图表，需要注意：

1. required_fields变为二维数组，每个子数组表示一个子图表所需的字段
2. required_fields_type变为三维数组，结构为[子图表][字段][类型]
3. required_fields内的变量符号不要重名。如果重名，则表示这是相同的列（例如都是Country）。

例如，一个组合了柱状图和折线图的复合图表可能这样定义：

{
    "is_composite": true,
    "required_fields": [["category", "value1"], ["category", "value2"]],
    "required_fields_type": [
        [["categorical"], ["numerical"]],
        [["categorical"], ["numerical"]]
    ],
    "required_fields_range": [
        [[3, 10], [0, 100]],
        [[3, 10], [0, 100]]
    ]
}

variation Directory Structure

variations should be placed in the appropriate directory based on their type:

variation/
├── d3-js/              # D3.js variations
│   └── examples/       # Example variations
├── echarts-js/         # ECharts JavaScript variations
│   └── examples/       # Example variations
└── echarts_py/         # Python variations
    └── examples/       # Example variations

You can organize variations in subdirectories if needed - the system will recursively scan for variations.

Creating a D3.js variation

Here's a step-by-step guide to creating a simple D3.js bar chart variation:

1. Create a new JavaScript file in the template/d3-js/ directory (or subdirectory)
2. Add the requirements section at the top of the file
3. Implement the makeChart function that renders the chart

简单的D3.js条形图示例 (Updated)

这里是一个更简化的D3.js条形图模板示例，使用新格式：

    const height = variables.height;
    const margin = { top: 30, right: 20, bottom: 40, left: 40 };
    const innerWidth = width - margin.left - margin.right;

        .domain([0, d3.max(chartData, d => d[yField])])
        .range([innerHeight, 0]);
    
    // 绘制条形
    g.selectAll(".bar")
        .data(chartData)

        .attr("width", xScale.bandwidth())
        .attr("height", d => innerHeight - yScale(d[yField]))
        .attr("fill", barColor);

        .style("font-size", typography.label.font_size)
        .style("fill", colors.text_color);
    
    return svg.node();
}

复合图表示例

下面是一个简单的复合图表示例，展示如何定义具有多个子图表的模板：

/*
REQUIREMENTS_BEGIN
{
    "chart_type": "Bar Line Composite Chart",
    "chart_name": "bar_line_composite",
    "is_composite": true,
    "required_fields": [["category", "value1"], ["category", "value2"]],
    "required_fields_type": [
        [["categorical"], ["numerical"]],
        [["categorical"], ["numerical"]]
    ],
    "required_fields_range": [
        [[3, 10], [0, 100]],
        [[3, 10], [0, 100]]
    ],

    "background": "styled",
    "icon_mark": "side",
    "icon_label": "side",
    "has_x_axis": "yes",
    "has_y_axis": "yes"
}
REQUIREMENTS_END
*/

function makeChart(containerSelector, data) {
    // 实现复合图表逻辑...
    // 第一部分数据用于条形图
    // 第二部分数据用于折线图
    // ...
}

Variation Registration

Variations are automatically registered when the framework starts up. The system scans the variation directories and builds a registry based on the requirements sections.

The variation registry matches chart types to the appropriate variation based on:

1. Exact chart type match
2. Partial matches if no exact match is found
3. Engine preference order (default: Python -> JavaScript -> D3.js)

Expected Input Format

Variations receive a JSON object with the following structure:

{
    "data": {
        "data": [
            {"Country": "France", "Score": 88, "Retailer Type": "Pharmacy"},
            {"Country": "France", "Score": 10, "Retailer Type": "Online pharmacy"},
            {"Country": "Germany", "Score": 80, "Retailer Type": "Pharmacy"}
        ],
        "columns": [
            {"name": "Country", "importance": "primary", "description": "Country of the respondents", "role": "dimension"},
            {"name": "Score", "importance": "primary", "description": "Score value", "role": "measure", "unit": ""},
            {"name": "Retailer Type", "importance": "primary", "description": "Type of retailer", "role": "group"}
        ],
    },
    "variables": {
        "width": 800,
        "height": 500,
        "has_rounded_corners": true,
        "has_shadow": true,
        "has_gradient": false,
        "has_stroke": true,
        "has_spacing": true,
        "title": {
            "text": "Simple Bar Chart"
        }
    },
    "typography": {
        "title": {
            "font_family": "Arial, sans-serif",
            "font_size": "16px",
            "font_weight": "bold"
        },
        "label": {
            "font_family": "Arial, sans-serif",
            "font_size": "12px",
            "font_weight": "normal"
        },
        "annotation": {
            "font_family": "Arial, sans-serif",
            "font_size": "10px",
            "font_weight": "normal"
        }
    },
    "images": {
        "field": {
            "France": "data:image/svg+xml;base64,...",
            "Germany": "data:image/svg+xml;base64,..."
        },
        "other": {
            "primary": "data:image/svg+xml;base64,..."
        }
    },
    "colors": {
        "field": {
            "Pharmacy": "#1f77b4",
            "Online pharmacy": "#ff7f0e",
            "Other retail shop": "#2ca02c"
        },
        "other": {
            "primary": "#1f77b4",
            "secondary": "#ff7f0e"
        },
        "available_colors": ["#1f77b4", "#ff7f0e", "#2ca02c", "#d62728", "#9467bd", "#8c564b"],
        "background_color": "#FFFFFF",
        "text_color": "#0f223b"
    }
}

重要更新：新的数据访问模式

框架已进行更新，模板应使用以下模式访问数据：

1. 数据字段访问

不再使用 variables.x_axis.field 等路径，而是使用 data.columns 按顺序访问字段：

// 旧格式 - 不要使用
const xField = variables.x_axis.field;
const yField = variables.y_axis.field;
const groupField = variables.color.mark_color.field;

// 新格式 - 推荐使用
const xField = data.columns[0].name;  // 第一列
const yField = data.columns[1].name;  // 第二列
const groupField = data.columns[2].name;  // 第三列

2. 视觉效果属性访问

视觉效果属性现在位于 variables 对象的根级别：

// 旧格式 - 不要使用
const hasRoundedCorners = variables.mark.has_rounded_corners;
const hasShadow = variables.mark.has_shadow;

// 新格式 - 推荐使用
const hasRoundedCorners = variables.has_rounded_corners;
const hasShadow = variables.has_shadow;

3. 颜色应用

颜色应该使用以下模式分配：

// 获取类别的颜色
const getColor = (category) => {
    return colors.field && colors.field[category] ? 
        colors.field[category] : 
        colors.other.primary;
};

Best Practices

1. Keep variations focused: 每个模板应只处理一种特定图表类型
2. Support visual variations: 实现常见的视觉效果（阴影、渐变等）
3. Handle edge cases: 处理边缘情况，如空数据、数据点不足等
4. Use appropriate defaults: 为所有视觉属性提供合理的默认值
5. Document requirements clearly: 确保需求部分完整准确
6. Test with various data: 使用不同形状和大小的数据验证模板

Testing Your Variation

1. 将模板放入相应目录
2. 创建测试JSON输入文件
3. 运行框架：python make_svg.py --input your_test_input.json
4. 在tmp/目录中验证SVG输出

Troubleshooting

• 如果找不到模板，检查requirements部分格式是否正确
• 验证requirements中的chart_type是否与输入中请求的类型匹配
• 检查控制台输出中的错误信息
• 对于D3.js模板，确保正确实现了makeChart函数
• 对于Python模板，确保make_options函数返回有效的ECharts选项
