using replace to produce javascript code, django
- by durdenk
I want to use highcharts with my django site but it requires a comlex javascript code such as below.
So I wanted to get this script in my python code and replace apropriate portions then write it in my template, first question is, is this a dump way to do that for a person not knowing javascript. I can read it tough.
Second question is, Why I cant replace this string. Lets say this string is a variable like this.
lineChartsTemplate = """
...
...
"""
if I try and do
lineChartsTemplate .replace('dataCategory', dataCategory)
it basically suppossed to change dataCategory text with my dataCategory variable, but no such luck.
I need guidance here. thx.
$(function () {
var chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo: 'container',
type: 'bar'
},
xAxis: {
categories: dataCategory
},
yAxis: {
},
legend: {
layout: 'vertical',
floating: true,
backgroundColor: '#FFFFFF',
align: 'right',
verticalAlign: 'top',
y: 60,
x: -60
},
tooltip: {
formatter: function() {
return '<b>'+ this.series.name +'</b><br/>'+
this.x +': '+ this.y;
}
},
plotOptions: {
},
series: [{
data: dataList ,
name : 'Satislar'}]
});
});
