This section explains how to use Bullet 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.

Vue 3 Terminal

Adding Syncfusion Bullet Chart package in the application

Syncfusion Vue packages are maintained in the npmjs.com registry. The Bullet 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 Bullet 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 Bullet Chart component using following steps.

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

     <script>
     import { BulletChartComponent, BulletTooltip, BulletRangeCollectionDirective, BulletRangeDirective } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-charts";
     </script>
    
  2. Register the Bullet Chart component along with the required child directives which are used in this example. Find the list of child directives and tag names that can be used in the Bullet Chart component in the following table.

    Directive Name Tag Name
    BulletRangeCollectionDirective e-bullet-range-collection
    BulletRangeDirective e-bullet-range
     import { BulletChartComponent, BulletTooltip, BulletRangeCollectionDirective, BulletRangeDirective } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-charts";
    
     //Component registration.
     export default {
       components: {
         "ejs-bulletchart": BulletChartComponent,
         "e-bullet-range-collection": BulletRangeCollectionDirective,
         "e-bullet-range": BulletRangeDirective
       }
     };
  3. Add the Bullet Chart component definition in template section.

     <template>
       <ejs-bulletchart :dataSource="data" :valueField="valueField" :tooltip="tooltip" :targetField="targetField" :height="height"
         :title="title" :minimum="minimum" :maximum="maximum" :interval="interval">
         <e-bullet-range-collection>
           <e-bullet-range end="100" color="red"></e-bullet-range>
           <e-bullet-range end="200" color="blue"></e-bullet-range>
           <e-bullet-range end="300" color="green"></e-bullet-range>
         </e-bullet-range-collection>
       </ejs-bulletchart>
     </template>
    

    Above is the Bullet Chart component definition with dataSource, valueField, tooltip, targetField, height, minimum, maximum, interval and ranges properties.

  4. Declare the bound properties in the script section.

     export default {
       components: {
         "ejs-bulletchart": BulletChartComponent,
         "e-bullet-range-collection": BulletRangeCollectionDirective,
         "e-bullet-range": BulletRangeDirective
       },
       data() {
         return {
           data: [
             { value: 100, target: 80 },
             { value: 200, target: 180 },
             { value: 300, target: 280 },
             { value: 400, target: 180 },
             { value: 500, target: 230 }
           ],
           minimum: 0,
           maximum: 300,
           interval: 50,
           tooltip: { enable: true },
           title: 'Revenue',
           height: '300px',
           targetField: 'target',
           valueField: 'value'
         };
       },
       provide: {
         bulletChart: [BulletTooltip]
       }
     };
  5. Summarizing the above steps, update the src/App.vue file with following code.

     <template>
       <ejs-bulletchart :dataSource="data" :valueField="valueField" :tooltip="tooltip" :targetField="targetField" :height="height"
         :title="title" :minimum="minimum" :maximum="maximum" :interval="interval">
         <e-bullet-range-collection>
           <e-bullet-range end="100" color="red"></e-bullet-range>
           <e-bullet-range end="200" color="blue"></e-bullet-range>
           <e-bullet-range end="300" color="green"></e-bullet-range>
         </e-bullet-range-collection>
       </ejs-bulletchart>
     </template>
    
     <script>
    
     import { BulletChartComponent, BulletTooltip, BulletRangeCollectionDirective, BulletRangeDirective } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-charts";
    
     export default {
       components: {
         "ejs-bulletchart": BulletChartComponent,
         "e-bullet-range-collection": BulletRangeCollectionDirective,
         "e-bullet-range": BulletRangeDirective
       },
       data() {
         return {
           data: [
             { value: 100, target: 80 },
             { value: 200, target: 180 },
             { value: 300, target: 280 },
             { value: 400, target: 180 },
             { value: 500, target: 230 }
           ],
           minimum: 0,
           maximum: 300,
           interval: 50,
           tooltip: { enable: true },
           title: 'Revenue',
           height: '300px',
           targetField: 'target',
           valueField: 'value'
         };
       },
       provide: {
         bulletChart: [BulletTooltip]
       }
     };
     </script>
    
  6. Run the application using the following command.

     npm run serve

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