React Area Charts & Graphs

Area charts are achieved by rendering a series of data points over time, connecting those data points with line segments, and then filling the area between the line and axisX with color. Below example shows Area Chart along with sample react code that you can try running locally.

/* App.js */
var React = require('react');
var Component = React.Component;
var CanvasJSReact = require('./canvasjs.react');
var CanvasJS = CanvasJSReact.CanvasJS;
var CanvasJSChart = CanvasJSReact.CanvasJSChart;
class App extends Component {
	render() {
		const options = {
			theme: "light2",
			animationEnabled: true,
			exportEnabled: true,
			title: {
				text: "Number of iPhones Sold"
			},
			axisY: {
				title: "Number of iPhones ( in Million )",
				includeZero: false,
			},
			data: [
			{
				type: "area",
				xValueFormatString: "YYYY",
				yValueFormatString: "#,##0.## Million",
				dataPoints: [
					{ x: new Date(2017, 0), y: 7.6},
					{ x: new Date(2016, 0), y: 7.3},
					{ x: new Date(2015, 0), y: 6.4},
					{ x: new Date(2014, 0), y: 5.3},
					{ x: new Date(2013, 0), y: 4.5},
					{ x: new Date(2012, 0), y: 3.8},
					{ x: new Date(2011, 0), y: 3.2}
				]
			}
			]
		}
		return (
		<div>
			<CanvasJSChart options = {options}
				/* onRef={ref => this.chart = ref} */
			/>
			{/*You can get reference to the chart instance as shown above using onRef. This allows you to access all chart properties and methods*/}
		</div>
		);
	}
}
module.exports = App;

Related Customization

You can customize the color and opacity of the filled area in using color and fillOpacity properties respectively.
