Range Chart API

Shade the spread, not a single line - the API for min-max bands and forecast cones. See the Range Chart demo for examples and usage.

Import

ts
import "@michi-vz/wc/range-chart";
// <michi-vz-range-chart> is now defined
ts
import { mountRangeChart } from "@michi-vz/core";

const chart = mountRangeChart(el, props);

Props

PropTypeDefaultDescription
timelineboolean | TimelinePeriodConfig-Opt-in "play through years" (cumulative): the marks draw UP TO the active period and extend as the timeline steps; `interpolate` sweeps smoothly between years, `false` jump-cuts. Headless controller via `chart.timeline()` plus the built-in play button + scrubber. Off by default; wins over `progressiveDraw` when both are set.
progressiveDrawboolean | ProgressiveDrawConfig-Opt-in reveal animation: wipes the marks in left to right on mount (a clip reveal; axes and titles stay put). `true` uses defaults (1200 ms, easeInOutCubic); a config tunes durationMs, easing, autoplay, and replayOnUpdate (`tipLabel` is LineChart-only and ignored here). Off by default; respects prefers-reduced-motion (renders fully drawn instantly) and `replay()` re-runs it.
dataSet*RangeDataItem[]-Array of series, each drawn as a filled valueMin..valueMax band over time with an optional median line
titlestring-Optional chart title rendered above the plot
xAxisDataType"date_annual" | "date_monthly" | "number""number"How x values are parsed and formatted: yearly dates, monthly dates, or plain numbers
xAxisFormat(d: number | string) => string-Formats an x tick value into its display label
yAxisFormat(d: number | string) => string-Formats a y tick value into its display label
yAxisDomain[number, number]-Explicit [min, max] for the value (y) axis; overrides the auto domain derived from the bands
ticksnumber5Approximate number of axis ticks to generate
tickValuesArray<number | Date>-Explicit tick values, overriding the generated ones
curve"curveBumpX" | "curveLinear" | "curveMonotoneX"-Line interpolation: curveLinear, curveMonotoneX, or curveBumpX
fillOpacitynumber0.8band fill opacity (default 0.8).
tooltipFormatter(d: RangeDataPoint, item: RangeDataItem) => string-Returns custom tooltip HTML for a hovered datum (sanitized before it is inserted)
onHighlightItem(labels: string[]) => void-Called when the hovered/highlighted label(s) change
Common props - shared by every chart (14)
PropTypeDefaultDescription
widthnumber1000Chart width in pixels
heightnumber500Chart height in pixels
marginMargin{ top: 50, right: 50, bottom: 50, left: 60 }Inner margins (top/right/bottom/left, in px); default 8 (36 top with a title)
colorsstring[]-Categorical palette for rings without an explicit colour or colorsMapping entry
colorsMappingRecord<string, string>-Explicit label -> colour map; takes precedence over the palette and per-item colours
highlightItemsstring[]-Labels to emphasise (active styling); others keep their base opacity
disabledItemsstring[]-Labels to hide entirely (ring + track removed; remaining rings keep their radii order)
renderer"svg" | "canvas" | "webgpu""svg"Render as inline SVG (default) or to a canvas / WebGPU layer; getContext() is identical either way
localestring-BCP-47 locale used for number formatting
skipColorMappingDispatchbooleanfalseExternal-CSS mode: unmapped labels resolve to transparent and onColorMappingGenerated is not emitted, so arc colours come from your CSS via the data-label-safe contract
enableTransitionsbooleantrueAnimate opacity/arc changes with CSS transitions (SVG renderer; default true)
onColorMappingGenerated(mapping: Record<string, string>) => void-Called with the resolved label -> colour map after the chart assigns colours
onChartDataProcessed(context: ChartContext) => void-Called with the renderer-agnostic ChartContext whenever the data is (re)processed
onDataWarning(warnings: DataWarning[]) => void-Called with any non-fatal data warnings (out-of-range values, duplicate labels, ...)

Events

The web component dispatches these bubbling CustomEvents (the engine exposes the same via the on* callbacks in the table above):

EventDetailFires when
michi-vz:highlightstring[]hover highlight changes
michi-vz:colormappingRecord<string, string>a color mapping is generated
michi-vz:dataprocessedChartContextdata is (re)processed
michi-vz:datawarningDataWarning[]input warnings are detected

getContext()

mountRangeChart(el, props).getContext() returns a renderer-agnostic RangeChartContext (structured stats + a deterministic natural-language summary + an a11y table). See LLM context.

Props are typed as RangeChartProps in @michi-vz/core.
