Box and Whisker Chart in React Chart

Box and Whisker

To render a box and whisker series in your chart, you need to follow a few steps to configure it correctly. Here’s a concise guide on how to do this:

  1. Set the series type: Define the series type as BoxAndWhisker in your chart configuration. This indicates that the data should be represented as a box and whisker chart, which will plot segments to illustrate the statistical distribution of the data.

  2. Inject the BoxAndWhiskerSeries module: Inject the BoxAndWhiskerSeries module into the services. This step is essential, as it ensures that the necessary functionalities for rendering box and whisker series are available in your chart.

  3. Data requirements: The y field of the Box and Whisker series requires a specific number of data points, with a minimum of five values needed to plot a segment (minimum, lower quartile, median, upper quartile, and maximum).

Binding data with series

You can bind data to the chart using the dataSource property within the series configuration. This allows you to connect a JSON dataset or remote data to your chart. To display the data correctly, map the fields from the data to the chart series xName and yName properties.

import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom/client";

function App() {
    const primaryxAxis = { valueType: 'Category', majorGridLines: { width: 0 } };
    const primaryyAxis = { minimum: 10, maximum: 60, interval: 10, majorGridLines: { width: 0 }, majorTickLines: { width: 0 } };
    const marker = { visible: true };
    return <ChartComponent id='charts' primaryXAxis={primaryxAxis} primaryYAxis={primaryyAxis} title='Employee Age Group in Various Department'>
      <Inject services={[Category, BoxAndWhiskerSeries]}/>
      <SeriesCollectionDirective>

Series customization

The following properties can be used to customize the box and whisker series.

Solid fill

The fill property determines the color applied to the series.

import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom/client";
import { ChartComponent, SeriesCollectionDirective, SeriesDirective, Inject, BoxAndWhiskerSeries, Category } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-charts';
import { data } from './datasource';

    const primaryxAxis = { valueType: 'Category', majorGridLines: { width: 0 } };
    const primaryyAxis = { minimum: 10, maximum: 60, interval: 10, majorGridLines: { width: 0 }, majorTickLines: { width: 0 } };
    const marker = { visible: true };
    return <ChartComponent id='charts' primaryXAxis={primaryxAxis} primaryYAxis={primaryyAxis} title='Employee Age Group in Various Department'>

    { x: 'Training', y: [28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 34, 35, 36] }
];

Gradient fill

The fill property accepts an SVG gradient reference, allowing you to apply a smooth color transition to the box and whisker series. Define the gradient with a unique ID, and assign it to the fill property using the url(#gradientId) syntax. The series fill then transitions between the gradient stops.

Opacity

The opacity property controls the transparency of the fill and affects how the series blends with background or overlapping series.

Box plot

You can change the rendering mode of the Box and Whisker series using the boxPlotMode property. The default mode is exclusive, which renders a single line for outliers only when they fall outside the whiskers. The other available modes are inclusive and normal, which use different quartile calculation methods to determine the box and whisker positions.
