How to use this template
What's it for?
Use this template to visualize one or more metrics that have a single value. Use it to highlight anything from key metrics to live electional forecasts.
Modes in the Gauge template
We have three modes in our Gauge template:
- Single gauge
- Grid of gauges
- Gauge with a filter
Whether your visualization displays a single gauge or a grid of gauges is controlled by the number of rows you supply in your data. Each new row will be added to your grid of gauges.
How to get started
1. Choose a Gauge starting point from the template chooser. You can choose between a simple gauge, a grid of gauges or a percentage gauge.
2.
In the Data tab, upload your data. Each row of your data will display as a new gauge.
3
4
- Gauge: This setting group lets you customize the look and feel of your gauge. You can customize:
- The gauge shape, choosing between a 90 degree radial extent, a 180 degree radial extent, a 270 degree radial extent, or a custom radial extent
- The inner radius of your gauge, choosing between an inner radius of 1, an inner radius of 0.75, an inner radius of 0.5, or a custom inner radius
- The scale domain, which lets you define a custom range for your gauge, allowing you to input a minimum and maximum value for the gauge to display. The range will apply across all gauges, regardless of whether you are using a filter or displaying a grid of gauges.
- The color, which lets you define a color for your gauge's background and border color. Note that if you have set your segments to fill the entire gauge in the Segments settings, the background color of your gauge won't display.
- Height: This setting group lets you customize the height of your gauge and grid of gauges. You can customize:
- The height mode, choosing between Auto (sets the height based on the mode), Standard (uses the default Flourish responsive sizing) and Aspect ratio (sets the aspect of each plot). Note that this setting is ignored when embedded in a fixed-height context such as a simple iframe embed.
- The grid settings in order to define the number of columns in your grid as well as the minimum width given to each gauge in a grid.
- Segments: This setting group lets you customize the height of your gauge and grid of gauges. You can customize:
- The segment size, choosing between a short segment size, a medium segment size, a full segment size, or a custom segment size.
- The number of segments, choosing between Auto (an automatically assigned number of segments), Fixed (a fixed number of segments of equal widths) or Custom (a custom number of segments with custom-defined widths). When selecting Custom, you can supply your segments in the following format:
- If you're using Fixed or Custom segments mode, you can additionally choose to display Labels on your segments. To supply these, type them into the Labels text area, supplying a label per line. You can additionally supply a size, a weight, a rotation mode (choosing from straight or curved), a color and padding for your labels.
- A color scheme for your gauge, choosing from categorical or numeric coloring
- Ticks: This setting group lets you customize the ticks displaying in your gauge(s). You can customize:
- The tick mode, choosing from None, Auto, Number and Custom. You can learn more about different tick modes in our help doc.
- The tick width (in rems) and color
- The tick length, choosing from a tick size of 0.1, a tick size of 0.2, a tick size of 1 or a custom tick size.
- Whether your ticks should animate, for example between two slides in a story
- Whether or not you would like to display intermediate ticks, and if so, how many, their size (as a proportion of the tick size) and their direction, choosing from an inwards or an outwards direction.
- Your tick labels, including whether to display them inside or outside your gauge and how much space they should have from your gauge, along with their color.
- Your tick label rotation, choosing from none, parallel or ring-shaped.
- Needle: This setting group lets you customize the needle displaying in your gauge(s). You can customize:
- The size/width of your needle, choosing from a thin, medium, thick or custom width needle
- The length of your needle, choosing from a short, medium, long or custom length needle
- The color of your needle, choosing to color the needle the same as the segment it is currently in (Gauge) or a custom color. You might want to use the gauge coloring to make it easier for your users to read the current value/stage your gauge is in.
- The size of the needle center, choosing from small, medium, large and custom, as well as the border width of the center of the needle and the border color
- The animation and animation duration of your needle, in seconds, between transitions of a filter or slides of a story
- The jitter and jitter amplitude of your needle, choosing between a low amplitude, a medium amplitude, a high amplitude, or a custom amplitude
-
Text: This setting group lets you customize the name and value text appearing with your gauge, choosing from
- The alignment of your text in relation to your gauge(s), choosing from left, center or right-aligned
- The positioning of your text in relation to your gauge(s), choosing from Name, Value, Gauge, Gauge, Name, Value or Name, Gauge, Value. For each of these options, you can also choose to flip the order.
API information
This section documents API usage specific to this template, so for an introduction we suggest you refer to the generic API documentation instead.
template: @flourish/gauge
version: 1
Template data
There are three different formats in which you can supply data to this template. The most convenient for you to use likely depends on the source of your data, as described below.
1. Array of arrays, and a bindings object
You can supply arrays of arrays to opts.data, which might look
like:
{
data: {
data: [
[ "DataColumn1Value1", "DataColumn2Value1",
[ "DataColumn1Value2", "DataColumn2Value2",
[ "DataColumn1Value3", "DataColumn2Value3",
...
]
}
}
where each array of arrays represents the rows in a data sheet.
To tell the API how the values from each column should be
associated with the keys that the template is expecting, you must also supply
an object attached to opts.bindings. (The meanings of the
keys in the bindings object are documented
below.) The minimal bindings you can
supply for this template are as shown in this example:
{
template: "@flourish/gauge",
version: "1",
bindings: {
data: {
name: 0, // index of a column in your data
}
},
data: {
data: [
[ "DataColumn1Value1", "DataColumn2Value1",
[ "DataColumn1Value2", "DataColumn2Value2",
[ "DataColumn1Value3", "DataColumn2Value3",
...
]
}
}
All possible bindings that you can supply are shown in this example:
{
template: "@flourish/gauge",
version: "1",
bindings: {
data: {
name: 0, // index of a column in your data
value: [1, 2, ...], // index(es) of column(s) in your data
}
},
data: {
data: [
[ "DataColumn1Value1", "DataColumn2Value1",
[ "DataColumn1Value2", "DataColumn2Value2",
[ "DataColumn1Value3", "DataColumn2Value3",
...
]
}
}
2. Array of objects with arbitrary keys, and a bindings object
This format is most likely useful when you have data from an external source,
such as CSV data loaded from d3-dsv.
You should supply this attached to the opts.data, which might look
like:
{
data: [
{ "DataHeader1": ..., "DataHeader2": ..., ... },
{ "DataHeader1": ..., "DataHeader2": ..., ... },
{ "DataHeader1": ..., "DataHeader2": ..., ... },
...
]
}
... but with the keys being the column headers from your
source data instead. You must also supply an object attached to
opts.bindings. The minimal bindings you can
supply for this template are as shown in this example:
{
template: "@flourish/gauge",
version: "1",
bindings: {
data: {
name: "DataHeader1",
}
},
data: {
data: [
{ "DataHeader1": ..., "DataHeader2": ..., ... },
{ "DataHeader1": ..., "DataHeader2": ..., ... },
{ "DataHeader1": ..., "DataHeader2": ..., ... },
...
]
}
}
All possible bindings that you can supply are shown in this example:
{
template: "@flourish/gauge",
version: "1",
bindings: {
data: {
name: "DataHeader1",
value: ["DataHeader2", "DataHeader3", ...],
}
},
data: {
data: [
{ "DataHeader1": ..., "DataHeader2": ..., ... },
{ "DataHeader1": ..., "DataHeader2": ..., ... },
{ "DataHeader1": ..., "DataHeader2": ..., ... },
...
]
}
}
(As before, the keys containing "Header" would be replaced by column names from your data source.)
3. Array of objects with template-defined keys
There is an alternative format you can use, which is likely to be easier to
use if your data is not from a spreadsheet source. With this alternative format
you supply your data to the template as
an array of objects, attached to opts.data, where the keys must
be those used by the template, as documented below. In this case
there is no need to supply a bindings object, since the key names are already
those expected by the template. The required properties in the data
object are as follows (scroll down for a
description of what each property is):
{
template: "@flourish/gauge",
version: "1",
data: {
data: [
{
name: ...,
value: [...]
},
...
]
},
...
}
And the full list of all possible properties is as follows:
{
template: "@flourish/gauge",
version: "1",
data: {
data: [
{
name: ...,
value: [...]
},
...
]
},
...
}
Meanings of the template data keys:
- data.name: name
- data.value: One or more columns of numbers
Template metadata
Note: metadata is optional, and the API will interpret your data for you if you do not specify it. A typical example of when specifying metadata can be useful is when column(s) in your data contain numbers or dates that you wish to format visually (e.g. to display a column containing MM/DD/YYYY dates in DD/MM/YYYY format).
This template supports an optional metadata property. metadata informs the template what type of data is in each of your columns, and how that data should be formatted visually.
You can specify metadata in one of three formats, depending on the format of opts.data.
1. Array of objects with column indexes as keys
You should supply metadata in this format when opts.data is in the previously described 'array of arrays' format. In this case, metadata should be an object with column index: column type object key/value pairs (column type objects must have type, type_id, and output_format_id keys, documented below):
{
template: "@flourish/gauge",
version: "1",
...
data: {
data: [
[ "DataColumn1Value1", "DataColumn2Value1",
[ "DataColumn1Value2", "DataColumn2Value2",
[ "DataColumn1Value3", "DataColumn2Value3",
...
]
},
metadata: {
data: {
0: { type: ..., type_id: ..., output_format_id: ... },
1: { type: ..., type_id: ..., output_format_id: ... },
}
},
...
}
2. Array of objects with column headers as keys
You should supply metadata in this format when opts.data is in the previously described 'array of objects with arbitrary keys' format. In this case, metadata should be an object with column header: column type object key/value pairs (column type objects must have type, type_id, and output_format_id keys, documented below):
{
template: "@flourish/gauge",
version: "1",
data: {
data: [
{ "DataHeader1": ..., "DataHeader2": ..., ... },
{ "DataHeader1": ..., "DataHeader2": ..., ... },
{ "DataHeader1": ..., "DataHeader2": ..., ... },
...
]
},
metadata: {
data: {
"DataHeader1": { type: ..., type_id: ..., output_format_id: ... },
"DataHeader2": { type: ..., type_id: ..., output_format_id: ... },
}
},
...
}
Column type objects:
Column type objects tell the API what type of data is in a column:
{
type: "number", // options also include 'string', and 'datetime'
type_id: "number$comma_point", // numbers in the format 13,429.17
output_format_id: "number$space_comma", // numbers in the format 13 429,17
}
For more information on valid column type values, see Recognized Type Formats.
