React Plotly.js in JavaScript
How to use the Plotly.js React component.
New to Plotly?
Plotly is a free and open-source graphing library for JavaScript. We recommend you read our Getting Started guide for the latest installation or upgrade instructions, then move on to our Plotly Fundamentals tutorials or dive straight in to some Basic Charts tutorials.
Use react-plotly.js to embed D3 charts in your React-powered web application. This React component takes the chart type, data, and styling as Plotly JSON in its data and layout props, then draws the chart using Plotly.js. See below about how to get started with react-plotly.js.
$ npm install react-plotly.js plotly.js
The easiest way to use this component is to import and pass data to a plot component:
import React from 'react';
import Plot from 'react-plotly.js';
class App extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<Plot
data={[
{
x: [1, 2, 3],
y: [2, 6, 3],
type: 'scatter',
mode: 'lines+markers',
marker: {color: 'red'},
},
{type: 'bar', x: [1, 2, 3], y: [2, 5, 3]},
]}
layout={ {width: 320, height: 240, title: 'A Fancy Plot'} }
/>
);
}
}
