This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (recharts-to-png) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

recharts-to-png

Uses html2canvas to convert a Recharts chart to PNG.

Install

Demo

See the demo here. It implements useCurrentPng with different chart types and file-saver.

Usage

Compatible with React ^16.8.0:

useCurrentPng

useCurrentPng is a React hook that returns a tuple. The first parameter is a promise that will return a string if the PNG is valid. The second parameter is an object with two properties: ref, which is required to be attached to the target Recharts component, and isLoading, which is optional and changes state from false to true while the PNG is being generated and downloaded.

function MyApp(props) {
  // useCurrentPng usage (isLoading is optional)
  const [getPng, { ref, isLoading }] = useCurrentPng();

  // Can also pass in options for html2canvas
  // const [getPng, { ref }] = useCurrentPng({ backgroundColor: '#000' });

  const handleDownload = useCallback(async () => {
    const png = await getPng();

    // Verify that png is not undefined
    if (png) {
      // Download with FileSaver
      FileSaver.saveAs(png, 'myChart.png');
    }
  }, [getPng]);

  return (
    <>
      <ComposedChart data={props.data} ref={ref}>
        <XAxis dataKey="name" />
        <YAxis />
        <Tooltip />
        <Legend />
        <CartesianGrid stroke="#f5f5f5" />
        <Area type="monotone" dataKey="amt" fill="#8884d8" stroke="#8884d8" />
        <Bar dataKey="pv" barSize={20} fill="#413ea0" />
        <Line type="monotone" dataKey="uv" stroke="#ff7300" />
        <Brush dataKey="name" height={30} stroke="#8884d8" />
      </ComposedChart>
      <br/>
      <button onClick={handleDownload}>
        {isLoading ? 'Downloading...' : 'Download Chart'}
      </button>
    </>
