翻译I have searched a lot to find a good example for generating a Google Chart using MySQL table data as the data source. I searched for a couple of days and realised that there are few examples available for generating a Google Chart (pie, bar, column, table) using a combination of PHP and MySQL. I finally managed to get one example working.
I have previously received a lot of help from StackOverflow, so this time I will return some.
I have two examples; one uses Ajax and the other does not. Today, I will only show the non-Ajax example.
Usage:
Requirements: PHP, Apache and MySQL Installation: --- Create a database by using phpMyAdmin and name it "chart" --- Create a table by using phpMyAdmin and name it "googlechart" and make sure table has only two columns as I have used two columns. However, you can use more than 2 columns if you like but you have to change the code a little bit for that --- Specify column names as follows: "weekly_task" and "percentage" --- Insert some data into the table --- For the percentage column only use a number --------------------------------- example data: Table (googlechart) --------------------------------- weekly_task percentage ----------- ---------- Sleep 30 Watching Movie 10 job 40 Exercise 20
PHP-MySQL-JSON-Google Chart Example:
'Weekly Task', 'type' => 'string'), array('label' => 'Percentage', 'type' => 'number') ); $rows = array(); while($r = mysql_fetch_assoc($sth)) { $temp = array(); // the following line will be used to slice the Pie chart $temp[] = array('v' => (string) $r['Weekly_task']); // Values of each slice $temp[] = array('v' => (int) $r['percentage']); $rows[] = array('c' => $temp); } $table['rows'] = $rows; $jsonTable = json_encode($table); //echo $jsonTable; ?>
