I am following the instructions from http://www.highcharts.com/docs/getting-started/your-first-chart to create a sample chart. I have saved the main chunk of javascript locally, and am add the <script src="/chart.js"></script> tag in my html to reference it.
On my side, I am using python flask to render a html template containing the script.
@app.route('/view', methods=['POST', 'GET'])
def show_graph_view():
query= request.form['query']
data = get_current_data(query)
return render_template('graph.html', data=data)
I have a function to prepare some custom and current data I want to plot instead and I want the data to be available once the client brower loads. How do I add this data into the charts?
Assuming a globally accessible function, just call it in the module with the data converted to json on the server with the tojson and safe filters.
<script type=text/javascript> doSomethingWith({{ data|tojson|safe }}); </script>
It's a bit hard to follow the logic when you mix together server side templating and client side scripting like this. But sometimes you gotta do it.
