The following code sample shows different types of sparklines.

Line

The [Line] type is used to render the sparkline series as line.

//Initialize Sparkline component
var sparklineInstance = new ej.charts.Sparkline({
   height: '100px',
    width: '70%',
    dataSource: [
            { x: 0, xval: '2005', yval: 20090440 },
            { x: 1, xval: '2006', yval: 20264080 },
            { x: 2, xval: '2007', yval: 20434180 },
            { x: 3, xval: '2008', yval: 21007310 },
            { x: 4, xval: '2009', yval: 21262640 },
            { x: 5, xval: '2010', yval: 21515750 },
            { x: 6, xval: '2011', yval: 21766710 },
            { x: 7, xval: '2012', yval: 22015580 },
            { x: 8, xval: '2013', yval: 22262500 },
            { x: 9, xval: '2014', yval: 22507620 },
        ],
    // Assign the dataSource values to series of sparkline 'xName and yName'
    xName: 'xval', yName: 'yval',
    // Assign the 'Line' as type of Sparkline
    type:'Line'
});
//Render initialized Sparkline
sparklineInstance.appendTo("#element");
