Getting started with React Linear Gauge component

02 Feb 2023 / 5 minutes to read

This section explains you the steps required to create a simple Linear Gauge and demonstrate the basic usage of the Linear Gauge control.

Dependencies

Following is the list of minimum dependencies required to use the Linear Gauge.

+-- @syncfusion/ej2-react-lineargauge
|-- @syncfusion/ej2-lineargauge
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-base
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-svg-base
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-pdf-export
|-- @syncfusion/ej2-react-base

Installation and configuration

To get started with the React application, create-react-app can be used to setup the application. To install create-react-app run the following command.

npm install -g create-react-app

To create basic React application, run the following command.

create-react-app quickstart

Now, the application is created in the quickstart folder. Run the following command one-by-one to navigate to the quickstart folder, and install the required npm packages.

cd quickstart

npm install

In the quickstart application, the Syncfusion component is added in the JavaScript file.

Creating a React application with TypeScript

To create React application with TypeScript, use the following command.

create-react-app quickstart --template typescript

Now, the application is created in the quickstart folder. Run the following command one-by-one to navigate to the quickstart folder, and install the required npm packages.

cd quickstart

npm install

Adding Syncfusion packages

All the available Essential JS 2 packages are published in npmjs.com public registry. To install Linear Gauge package, use the following command.

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

Adding Linear Gauge component to the Project

Now, the Linear Gauge component can be added in the application. To initialize the Linear Gauge control in the React application, import the Linear Gauge control in the src/App.js or src/App.tsx as per the application. Please use the below code to include the Linear Gauge component in the application.

import React from 'react';
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import { LinearGaugeComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-lineargauge';

export function App() {
   return (<LinearGaugeComponent id='gauge'></LinearGaugeComponent>);
}

const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('container'));
root.render(<App />);

import React from 'react';
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import { LinearGaugeComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-lineargauge';
export function App() {
    return (<LinearGaugeComponent id='gauge'></LinearGaugeComponent>);
}
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('container'));
root.render(<App />);

Run the application

The Linear Gauge control is now included in the quickstart application. Use the following command to run the application.

npm start

Module Injection

Linear gauge component are segregated into individual feature-wise modules. In order to use a particular feature, inject its feature service in the AppModule. Please find the feature service name and description as follows.

Annotations - Inject this module in to services to use annotation feature.
GaugeTooltip - Inject this module in to services to use tooltip feature.

These modules should be injected into the services section as follows,

import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import { LinearGaugeComponent, Annotations, GaugeTooltip, Inject } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-lineargauge';

export function App() {
return(<LinearGaugeComponent id='gauge'>
           <Inject services={[Annotations, GaugeTooltip]}/>
       </LinearGaugeComponent>
);
}
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('container'));
root.render(<App />);

import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import { LinearGaugeComponent, Annotations, GaugeTooltip, Inject } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-lineargauge';
export function App() {
    return (<LinearGaugeComponent id='gauge'>
            <Inject services={[Annotations, GaugeTooltip]}/>
        </LinearGaugeComponent>);
}
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('container'));
root.render(<App />);

Adding the Linear Gauge Title

The title can be added to the Linear Gauge component using the title property in the Linear Gauge.

}
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('container'));
root.render(<App />);

Axis Range

The range of the axis can be set using the minimum and maximum properties in the Linear Gauge.

import * as React from "react";

    return (<LinearGaugeComponent id='gauge'>
    <AxesDirective>
        <AxisDirective minimum={0} maximum={200}>
        </AxisDirective>
    </AxesDirective>
</LinearGaugeComponent>);
}
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('container'));
root.render(<App />);

import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import { LinearGaugeComponent, AxesDirective, AxisDirective } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-lineargauge';

export function App() {
return(
<LinearGaugeComponent id='gauge'>
    <AxesDirective>
        <AxisDirective minimum={0} maximum={200}>
        </AxisDirective>
    </AxesDirective>
</LinearGaugeComponent>
);
}
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('container'));
root.render(<App />);

To denote the axis values with temperature units, add the °C as suffix to each label. This can be achieved by setting the {value}°C to the format property in the labelStyle object of the axis. Here, {value} acts as a placeholder for each axis label.

To change the pointer value from the default value of the gauge, set the value property in pointers object of the axis.
