Easy way for Chart Setup using Chart.SetChartDataRange method with Node.js via C++

Aspose.Cells now provides Chart.setChartDataRange(string, boolean) method to set up chart easily. Using this method, you will now not need to add series and category axis data separately.

The following sample code explains the use Chart.setChartDataRange(string, boolean) method to set up chart easily.

const path = require("path");
const AsposeCells = require("aspose.cells.node");

// The path to the documents directory.
const dataDir = path.join(__dirname, "data");

// Create new workbook
const workbook = new AsposeCells.Workbook(AsposeCells.FileFormatType.Xlsx);

// Access first worksheet
const worksheet = workbook.getWorksheets().get(0);

// Add data for chart

// Category Axis Values
worksheet.getCells().get("A2").putValue("C1");
worksheet.getCells().get("A3").putValue("C2");
worksheet.getCells().get("A4").putValue("C3");

// First vertical series
worksheet.getCells().get("B1").putValue("T1");
worksheet.getCells().get("B2").putValue(6);
worksheet.getCells().get("B3").putValue(3);
worksheet.getCells().get("B4").putValue(2);

// Second vertical series
worksheet.getCells().get("C1").putValue("T2");
worksheet.getCells().get("C2").putValue(7);
worksheet.getCells().get("C3").putValue(2);
worksheet.getCells().get("C4").putValue(5);

// Third vertical series
worksheet.getCells().get("D1").putValue("T3");
worksheet.getCells().get("D2").putValue(8);
worksheet.getCells().get("D3").putValue(4);
worksheet.getCells().get("D4").putValue(2);

// Create Column chart with easy way
const idx = worksheet.getCharts().add(AsposeCells.ChartType.Column, 6, 5, 20, 13);
const ch = worksheet.getCharts().get(idx);
ch.setChartDataRange("A1:D4", true);

// Save the workbook
workbook.save(path.join(dataDir, "output_out.xlsx"), AsposeCells.SaveFormat.Xlsx);
