AppRecharts
This guide outlines how to use Recharts
, a composable charting library built on React components, in conjunction with Material-UI styling within a Next.js application. For more information on Recharts, see the official documentation.
Overview
Recharts offers a suite of customizable chart components, making it straightforward to create and render various types of charts in your React applications. The library provides a simple yet flexible way to visualize data.
Styling Recharts
To ensure the charts from Recharts align with the Material-UI theme of your application, we use AppRecharts
, a styled component that modifies Recharts components to using Material-UI styles.
Styled Component: AppRecharts
AppRecharts
is a styled div component that applies Material-UI theming to Recharts elements, ensuring a consistent look and feel with the rest of your application.
Example: Defining AppRecharts
// MUI imports and styling
import { styled } from '@mui/material/styles';
// Styled Components
const AppRecharts = styled('div')(({ theme }) => ({
// Custom styles for Recharts components...
}));
export default AppRecharts;
This code snippet demonstrates how AppRecharts provides Material-UI themed styling to Recharts' graphical elements.
Implementing the Styled Recharts
Using AppRecharts
, you can easily incorporate beautifully styled charts into your Next.js application.
Example: Creating an Area Chart
// Next Imports
import dynamic from 'next/dynamic'
import { AreaChart, Area, XAxis, YAxis, CartesianGrid, Tooltip, ResponsiveContainer } from '@/libs/Recharts';
const AppRecharts = dynamic(() => import('@/libs/styles/AppRecharts'))
const RechartsAreaChart = () => {
...
// Sample data for the chart
const data = [
// Chart data...
];
return (
<Card>
<AppRecharts>
<div>
<ResponsiveContainer>
<AreaChart height={350} data={data} >
{/* Recharts components and configuration */}
</AreaChart>
</ResponsiveContainer>
</div>
</AppRecharts>
</Card>
);
};
export default RechartsAreaChart;
In this example, RechartsAreaChart
is a component that uses AppRecharts
to render an area chart. The chart follows the Material-UI theme.
