23 Mar 20234 minutes to read

This section explains how to use Accumulation Chart component in Vue 3 application.

Prerequisites

System requirements for Syncfusion Vue UI components

Creating Vue application using Vue CLI

The easiest way to create a Vue application is to use the Vue CLI. Vue CLI versions above 4.5.0 are mandatory for creating applications using Vue 3. Use the following command to uninstall older versions of the Vue CLI.

npm uninstall vue-cli -g

Use the following commands to install the latest version of Vue CLI.

npm install -g @vue/cli
npm install -g @vue/cli-init

Create a new project using the command below.

vue create quickstart

Initiating a new project prompts us to choose the type of project to be used for the current application. Select the option Default (Vue 3) from the menu.

Adding Syncfusion Accumulation Chart package in the application

Syncfusion Vue packages are maintained in the npmjs.com registry. The Accumulation Chart component will be used in this example. To install it in the quickstart folder use the following command.

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

Adding Syncfusion Accumulation Chart component in the application

You have completed all the necessary configurations needed for rendering the Syncfusion Vue component. Now, you are going to add the Accumulation Chart component using following steps.

1. Import the Accumulation Chart component in the <script> section of the src/App.vue file.

```
<script>
import { AccumulationChartComponent, AccumulationSeriesCollectionDirective, AccumulationSeriesDirective, AccumulationLegend,
PieSeries, AccumulationTooltip } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-charts";
</script>
```

2. Register the Accumulation Chart component along with the required child directives which are used in this example. Find the list of child directives and the tag names that can be used in the Accumulation Chart component in the following table.

| Directive Name                          | Tag Name                           |
|-----------------------------------------|------------------------------------|
| `AccumulationSeriesCollectionDirective` | `e-accumulation-series-collection` |
| `AccumulationSeriesDirective`           | `e-accumulation-series`            |

```js
import { AccumulationChartComponent, AccumulationSeriesCollectionDirective, AccumulationSeriesDirective, AccumulationLegend,
PieSeries, AccumulationTooltip } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-charts";
//Component registeration.
export default {
    name: "App",
    components: {
    "ejs-accumulationchart": AccumulationChartComponent,
    "e-accumulation-series-collection": AccumulationSeriesCollectionDirective,
    "e-accumulation-series":  AccumulationSeriesDirective
  },
};

```

In the above code snippet, you have registered Accumulation Chart and the directives for series. Series directives are used to visualize the data with Pie series.

3. Add the component definition in template section.

```
<template>
    <ejs-accumulationchart :legendSettings="legendSettings" :tooltip="tooltip">
        <e-accumulation-series-collection>
            <e-accumulation-series :dataSource='data' xName='x' yName='y' innerRadius="20%"> </e-accumulation-series>
        </e-accumulation-series-collection>
    </ejs-accumulationchart>
</template>

```

Above is the Accumulation Chart component with dataSource bound to series directives.

4. Define the collection data which is bound for the dataSource, legendSettings and tooltip properties in the script section.

```js
  data() {
    return {
      data: [
        { x: 'Argentina', y: 505370 },
        { x: 'Belgium', y: 551500 },
        { x: 'Cuba', y: 312685 },
        { x: 'Dominican Republic', y: 350000 },
        { x: 'Egypt', y: 301000 },
        { x: 'Kazakhstan', y: 300000 },
        { x: 'Somalia', y: 357022 }
    ],
    legendSettings: { visible: true },
    tooltip: {
        enable: true
    },
    };
  },

```

5. Summarizing the above steps, update the src/App.vue file with following code.

```
<template>
    <ejs-accumulationchart :legendSettings="legendSettings" :tooltip="tooltip">
        <e-accumulation-series-collection>
            <e-accumulation-series :dataSource='data' xName='x' yName='y' innerRadius="20%"> </e-accumulation-series>
        </e-accumulation-series-collection>
    </ejs-accumulationchart>
</template>

<script>
import { AccumulationChartComponent, AccumulationSeriesCollectionDirective, AccumulationSeriesDirective, AccumulationLegend,
PieSeries, AccumulationTooltip } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-charts";

export default {
    name: "App",
    components: {
    "ejs-accumulationchart": AccumulationChartComponent,
    "e-accumulation-series-collection": AccumulationSeriesCollectionDirective,
    "e-accumulation-series":  AccumulationSeriesDirective
  },
  data() {
    return {
      data: [
        { x: 'Argentina', y: 505370 },
        { x: 'Belgium', y: 551500 },
        { x: 'Cuba', y: 312685 },
        { x: 'Dominican Republic', y: 350000 },
        { x: 'Egypt', y: 301000 },
        { x: 'Kazakhstan', y: 300000 },
        { x: 'Somalia', y: 357022 }
    ],
    legendSettings: { visible: true },
    tooltip: {
        enable: true
    },
    };
  },
  provide: {
    accumulationchart: [AccumulationLegend, PieSeries, AccumulationTooltip]
  },
};
</script>

```

6. Run the application using the following command.

```bash
npm run serve
```

The web server will be initiated and open the quickstart app in the browser at port localhost:8080.
