This section describes the steps to create a simple Accumulation Chart and demonstrates the basic usage of the Accumulation Chart component. The dependencies for accumulation chart is same as chart control.

A quick video overview of the React Accumulation Charts setup is available:

Dependencies

Below is the list of minimum dependencies required to use the Accumulation Chart component.

|-- @syncfusion/ej2-react-charts
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-base
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-data
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-charts
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-pdf-export
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-file-utils
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-compression
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-react-popups
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-react-buttons
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-react-base

Installation and configuration

To easily set up a React application, use create-vite-app, which provides a faster development environment, smaller bundle sizes, and optimized builds compared to traditional tools like create-react-app. For detailed steps, refer to the Vite installation instructions. Vite sets up your environment using JavaScript and optimizes your application for production.

Note: To create a React application using create-react-app, refer to this documentation for more details.

To create a new React application, run the following command.

npm create vite@latest my-app

To set-up a React application in TypeScript environment, run the following command.

npm create vite@latest my-app -- --template react-ts
cd my-app
npm run dev

To set-up a React application in JavaScript environment, run the following command.

npm create vite@latest my-app -- --template react
cd my-app
npm run dev

• Install the Syncfusion^® packages using the command below.

    npm install @syncfusion/ej2-react-charts --save
  

Add accumulation chart to the project

Add the Accumulation Chart component to src/App.tsx using the following code.

App.jsx

import {AccumulationChartComponent} from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-charts';
import * as React from 'react';

function App() {
    return  (<AccumulationChartComponent />);
}
export default App;

App.tsx

import { AccumulationChartComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-charts';
import * as React from 'react';
function App() {
    return (<AccumulationChartComponent />);
}
export default App;

Pie series

By default, a pie series is rendered when JSON data is assigned to the series dataSource property. Map JSON fields to the series xName and yName properties to bind data correctly.

App.jsx

import { AccumulationChartComponent, AccumulationSeriesCollectionDirective, AccumulationSeriesDirective } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-charts';
import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
function App() {
    const data = [
        { x: 'Jan', y: 3, text: 'Jan: 3' }, { x: 'Feb', y: 3.5, text: 'Feb: 3.5' },
        { x: 'Mar', y: 7, text: 'Mar: 7' }, { x: 'Apr', y: 13.5, text: 'Apr: 13.5' },
        { x: 'May', y: 19, text: 'May: 19' }, { x: 'Jun', y: 23.5, text: 'Jun: 23.5' },
        { x: 'Jul', y: 26, text: 'Jul: 26' }, { x: 'Aug', y: 25, text: 'Aug: 25' },
        { x: 'Sep', y: 21, text: 'Sep: 21' }, { x: 'Oct', y: 15, text: 'Oct: 15' }
    ];
    return <AccumulationChartComponent id="charts">
      <AccumulationSeriesCollectionDirective>
        <AccumulationSeriesDirective dataSource={data} xName='x' yName='y' radius='90%'/>
      </AccumulationSeriesCollectionDirective>
    </AccumulationChartComponent>;
}
;
export default App;

App.tsx

import { AccumulationChartComponent, AccumulationSeriesCollectionDirective, AccumulationSeriesDirective } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-charts';
import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";

function App() {

  const data: any[] = [
    { x: 'Jan', y: 3, text: 'Jan: 3' }, { x: 'Feb', y: 3.5, text: 'Feb: 3.5' },
    { x: 'Mar', y: 7, text: 'Mar: 7' }, { x: 'Apr', y: 13.5, text: 'Apr: 13.5' },
    { x: 'May', y: 19, text: 'May: 19' }, { x: 'Jun', y: 23.5, text: 'Jun: 23.5' },
    { x: 'Jul', y: 26, text: 'Jul: 26' }, { x: 'Aug', y: 25, text: 'Aug: 25' },
    { x: 'Sep', y: 21, text: 'Sep: 21' }, { x: 'Oct', y: 15, text: 'Oct: 15' }];

  return <AccumulationChartComponent id="charts">
      <AccumulationSeriesCollectionDirective>
        <AccumulationSeriesDirective dataSource={data} xName='x' yName='y' radius='90%' />
      </AccumulationSeriesCollectionDirective>
    </AccumulationChartComponent>

};
export default App;

Now run the npm run dev command in the console to start the development server. This command compiles your code and serves the application locally, opening it in the browser.

npm run dev
