WARNING: The underlying Flot library is in a weird state, you might wish to use js-chart instead, see this pull request for context.
This package bundles the minified Flot code (a jQuery plotting library) into a Haskell package, so it can be depended upon by Cabal packages. The first three components of the version number match the upstream Flot version. The package is designed to meet the redistribution requirements of downstream users (e.g. Debian). As an example:
import qualified Language.Javascript.Flot as Flot
main = do
putStrLn $ "Flot version " ++ show Flot.version ++ " source:"
putStrLn =<< readFile =<< Flot.file Flot.Flot
Note that Flot depends on jQuery, a Haskell version of which can be obtained
from the js-jquery
package.
This package installs data files containing the Flot sources, which must be available at runtime. If you want to produce an executable with no dependency on associated data files, you can use the file-embed
library:
{-# LANGUAGE TemplateHaskell #-}
import Data.FileEmbed
import qualified Data.ByteString as BS
import qualified Language.Javascript.Flot as Flot
import Language.Haskell.TH.Syntax
main = print flotContents
flotContents :: BS.ByteString
flotContents = $(embedFile =<< runIO (Flot.file Flot.Flot))
