Include the ngFlowChart
module as a dependency to your module, alongside flowthings
for the official flowthings.io library:
angular.module('app', ['flowthings', 'ngFlowChart'])
Configure and start flowthings service (as per official docs):
angular.module('app')
.config(function (flowthingsProvider) {
flowthingsProvider.options.account = '< your username >';
flowthingsProvider.options.token = '< your token >';
})
.run(function(flowthings) {
flowthings.ws.connect()
});
Use the <flow-chart></flow-chart>
tag in your view, adding a chart plugin within:
<flow-chart flow-id="'f123...'" limit="20">
<flow-chart-js value-properties="['temperature', 'humidity']" chart-type="line"></flow-chart-js>
</flow-chart>
Angular Flow Chart accepts any JS chart library via a plugin. Example on top of the page uses ChartJS
