Getting Started in EJ2 JavaScript Circular Gauge Component
10 Feb 20269 minutes to read
The Syncfusion Essential® JS 2 library provides ES5-compatible JavaScript components that work with global script references in modern web browsers. The Circular Gauge Component can be initialized by including script files either from a local installation or via CDN links.
Control Initialization
The Essential® JS 2 JavaScript controls can be initialized by using either of the following ways.
- Using local script references in a HTML page.
- Using CDN link for script reference.
Using local script references in a HTML page
Step 1: Create an app folder quickstart for getting started.
Step 2: Obtain the global scripts from the Essential Studio® JavaScript (Essential JS 2) installation directory. The paths follow this structure:
Syntax:
Dependency Script:
**(installed location)**\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\{RELEASE_VERSION}\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\{DEPENDENCY_PACKAGE_NAME}\dist\global\{DEPENDENCY_PACKAGE_NAME}.min.jsControl Script:
**(installed location)**\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\{RELEASE_VERSION}\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\{PACKAGE_NAME}\dist\global\{PACKAGE_NAME}.min.js
Example:
Dependency Script:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\20.1.0.58\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\ej2-base\dist\global\ej2-base.min.jsControl Script:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\20.1.0.58\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\ej2-circulargauge\dist\global\ej2-circulargauge.min.js
Alternatively, a single bundled script file is available that contains all Syncfusion® JavaScript UI control resources:
Scripts:
**(installed location)**\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\JavaScript - EJ2\{RELEASE_VERSION}\Web (Essential JS 2)\JavaScript\ej2\dist\ej2.min.js
The Custom Resource Generator (CRG) is an online web tool, which can be used to generate the custom script for a set of specific controls. This web tool is useful to combine the required control scripts in a single file.
Step 3: Create a folder ~/quickstart/resources and copy/paste the global scripts from the above installed location to ~/quickstart/resources/package corresponding package location.
Step 4: Create an HTML page named index.html in the ~/quickstart/ folder and add the Circular Gauge script references.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Essential JS 2</title>
<!-- Essential JS 2 Base's global script (Dependency Script) -->
<script src="resources/base/ej2-base.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<!-- Essential JS 2 CircularGauge's global script (Control Script) -->
<script src="resources/circulargauge/ej2-circulargauge.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>Step 5: Now, initiate the Syncfusion® JavaScript (ES5) Circulargauge control in the ~/quickstart/index.html by using following code.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Essential JS 2</title>
<!-- Essential JS 2 Base's global script (Dependency Script) -->
<script src="resources/base/ej2-base.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<!-- Essential JS 2 CircularGauge's global script (Control Script) -->
<script src="resources/circulargauge/ej2-circulargauge.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>
<body>
<!-- Add the HTML <circulargauge> element -->
<div id="element" style="display: block;">Circular Gauge</div>
<script>
// initialize circulargauge control
var circulargauge = new ej.circulargauge.CircularGauge({
height: '400px'
});
// Render initialized circulargauge.
circulargauge.appendTo('#element');
</script>
</body>
</html>Step 6: Open index.html in a web browser to render the Circular Gauge Component.
Using CDN link for script reference
Step 1: Create an app folder quickstart for getting started.
Step 2: Access the Circular Gauge scripts from the Syncfusion CDN. The following link formats are available:
Common Control Script:
Syntax:
https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/{RELEASE_VERSION}/dist/ej2.min.js
Example:
Script:
https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/32.1.19/dist/ej2.min.js
or
Individual Control Scripts:
Syntax
http://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/{RELEASE_VERSION}/{PACKAGE_NAME}/dist/global/{PACKAGE_NAME}.min.js
Example:
Circular Gauge Script:
https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/32.1.19/ej2-circulargauge/dist/global/ej2-circulargauge.min.jsDependency Scripts
https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/32.1.19/ej2-base/dist/global/ej2-base.min.js
https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/32.1.19/ej2-svg-base/dist/global/ej2-svg-base.min.js
https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/32.1.19/ej2-pdf-export/dist/global/ej2-pdf-export.min.js
Create a HTML page (index.html) in ~/quickstart location and add the CDN link references. Now, initiate the Syncfusion® JavaScript (ES5) Circular Gauge control in the index.html by using following code.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Essential JS 2</title>
<!-- Essential JS 2 Base's global script (Dependency Script) -->
<script src="https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/{RELEASE_VERSION}/ej2-base/dist/global/ej2-base.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/{RELEASE_VERSION}/ej2-svg-base/dist/global/ej2-svg-base.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/{RELEASE_VERSION}/ej2-pdf-export/dist/global/ej2-pdf-export.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/{RELEASE_VERSION}/ej2-circulargauge/dist/global/ej2-circulargauge.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>
<body>
<!-- Add the HTML <circulargauge> element -->
<div id="element" style="display: block;">Circular Gauge</div>
<script>
// initialize circulargauge control
var circulargauge = new ej.circulargauge.CircularGauge({
height: '400px'
});
// Render initialized circulargauge.
circulargauge.appendTo('#element');
</script>
</body>
</html>
Replace
{RELEASE_VERSION}with the latest Syncfusion release version number. Find available versions on the CDN releases page.
Step 3: Open index.html in a web browser to render the Circular Gauge Component.
The following example shows a complete, working Circular Gauge Component implementation.
// initialize circulargauge control.
var circulargauge = new ej.circulargauge.CircularGauge();
// Render initialized circulargauge.
circulargauge.appendTo('#element');<!DOCTYPE html><html lang="en"><head>

The pointer value displayed on the gauge can be controlled using the value property of the pointers API. The following example demonstrates how to set a custom pointer value.
// initialize circulargauge control.
var circulargauge = new ej.circulargauge.CircularGauge({
axes: [{
pointers: [{
value: 60
}]
}]
});
circulargauge.appendTo('#element');<!DOCTYPE html><html lang="en"><head>
