README

1. Features

PHP-Histogram is a PHP Library which is easy to use for creating histograms.

You can create a simple Histogram just by setting class range and data and filepath to save.

Frequency Polygon, Cumulative Frequency Polygon, Cumulative Relative Frequency Polygon and plotting Frequency are supported.

Changing other properties, such as Caption, X Label, Y Label, Various Colors, Canvas Size, Frame Ratio and Various Width are supported.

Transparent background is also supported.

You can change properties of Histogram like as follows.

• PHP: examples/ChangePropsByMethods.php

  <?php
  
  require_once __DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php';
  
  use Macocci7\PhpHistogram\Histogram;
  
  // Initialization
  $hg = new Histogram();
  $hg->setClassRange(5)
      ->setData([1, 5, 6, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 20, 24, 25])
  
      // Changing Props By Methods
  
      // Canvas Size: ($width, $height) / Deafult: (400, 300)
      // 50 <= $width / 50 <= $height
      ->resize(600, 400)
  
      // Ratio of the size of the plot area to the Canvas Size
      // frame($width, $height) / Default: (0.8, 0.7)
      // 0 < $width <= 1.0 / 0 < $height <= 1.0
      ->frame(0.6, 0.6)
  
      // Canvas Background Color
      // only #rgb and #rrggbb formats are supported.
      ->bgcolor('#3333cc')
  
      // Axis: width in pix and color
      ->axis(3, '#ffffff')
  
      // Grid: width in pix and color
      ->grid(1, '#cccccc')
  
      // Color of bars
      ->color('#99aaff')
  
      // Border of bars: width in pix and color
      ->border(4, '#0000ff')
  
      // Frequency Polygon: width in pix and color
      ->fp(4, '#00ff00')
  
      // Cumulative Relative Frequency Polygon
      ->crfp(3, '#ffff00')
  
      // Font Path
      // Note: Set the real path to the true type font (*.ttf)
      //       on your system.
      ->fontPath('/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ipafont-nonfree-uigothic/ipagui.ttf')
  
      // Font Size in pix
      ->fontSize(20)
  
      // Font Color
      ->fontColor('#ffff99')
  
      // Visibility of Histogram bars. barOff() is also available
      ->barOn()
  
      // Visibility of frequency polygon. fpOff() is also available
      ->fpOn()
  
      // Visibility of cumulative frequency polygon. crfpOff() is also available
      ->crfpOn()
  
      // Visibility of frequency. frequencyOff() is also available
      ->frequencyOn()
  
      // X Label
      ->labelX('Class (Items)')
  
      // Y Label
      ->labelY('Frequency (People)')
  
      // Caption
      ->caption('Items Purchased / month（Feb 2024）')
  
      // Save
      ->create('img/ChangePropsByMethods.png');

• Result: examples/img/ChangePropsByMethods.png

  

5.3. Changing Properties By Neon File

You can change properties of Histogram like as follows.

First, create a Neon file.

• Neon File: examples/ChangePropsByNeon.neon

  canvasWidth: 600
  canvasHeight: 400
  canvasBackgroundColor: '#223399'
  frameXRatio: 0.7
  frameYRatio: 0.6
  axisColor: '#999'
  axisWidth: 3
  gridColor: '#eee'
  gridWidth: 1
  gridHeightPitch: 1
  barBackgroundColor: '#ffcc33'
  barBorderColor: '#ff6600'
  barBorderWidth: 2
  frequencyPolygonColor: '#33cc00'
  frequencyPolygonWidth: 3
  cumulativeRelativeFrequencyPolygonColor: '#ff00ff'
  cumulativeRelativeFrequencyPolygonWidth: 7
  fontPath: 'fonts/ipaexm.ttf'
  fontSize: 24
  fontColor: '#eeeeee'
  showBar: true
  showFrequencyPolygon: true
  showCumulativeRelativeFrequencyPolygon: true
  showFrequency: true
  labelX: 'Class (Items)'
  labelY: 'Frequency (People)'
  caption: 'Items Purchased / month（Feb 2024）'

Second, Code PHP as follows.

• PHP: examples/ChangePropsByNeon.php

  <?php
  
  require_once __DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php';
  
  use Macocci7\PhpHistogram\Histogram;
  
  $hg = new Histogram();
  $hg->setClassRange(5)
     ->setData([1, 5, 6, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 20, 24, 25])
     ->config('ChangePropsByNeon.neon')
     ->create('img/ChangePropsByNeon.png');

Then, run the PHP code and view the result.

• Result: examples/img/ChangePropsByNeon.png

  

5.4. Changing Properties By Array

You can change properties of Histogram like as follows.

• PHP:

  <?php
  
  require_once __DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php';
  
  use Macocci7\PhpHistogram\Histogram;
  
  $props = [
      'canvasWidth' => 600,
      'canvasHeight' => 400,
      'canvasBackgroundColor' => '#224499',
      'frameXRatio' => 0.7,
      'frameYRatio' => 0.6,
      'axisColor' => '#999',
      'axisWidth' => 3,
      'gridColor' => '#eee',
      'gridWidth' => 1,
      'gridHeightPitch' => 1,
      'barBackgroundColor' => '#ffcc66',
      'barBorderColor' => '#ff6600',
      'barBorderWidth' => 2,
      'frequencyPolygonColor' => '#33cc00',
      'frequencyPolygonWidth' => 3,
      'cumulativeRelativeFrequencyPolygonColor' => '#ff5577',
      'cumulativeRelativeFrequencyPolygonWidth' => 7,
      'fontPath' => 'fonts/ipaexg.ttf',
      'fontSize' => 24,
      'fontColor' => '#eeeeee',
      'showBar' => true,
      'showFrequencyPolygon' => true,
      'showCumulativeRelativeFrequencyPolygon' => true,
      'showFrequency' => true,
      'labelX' => 'Class (Items)',
      'labelY' => 'Frequency (People)',
      'caption' => 'Items Purchased / month（Feb 2024）',
  ];
  
  $hg = new Histogram();
  $hg->setClassRange(5)
     ->setData([1, 5, 6, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 20, 24, 25])
     ->config($props)
     ->create('img/ChangePropsByArray.png');

• Result: examples/img/ChangePropsByArray.png

  

5.5. Transparent Background

Setting colors to transparent is supported.

For example,

• PHP: examples/TransparentBackground.php

  <?php
  
  require_once __DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php';
  
  use Macocci7\PhpHistogram\Histogram;
  
  $hg = new Histogram();
  $hg->config([
          'canvasBackgroundColor' => null,
          'barBackgroundColor' => '#ccccff',
          'barBorderColor' => '#0000ff',
          'barBorderWidth' => 2,
          'gridColor' => '#cc6666',
          'gridWidth' => 1,
          'axisColor' => '#aa6633',
          'fontColor' => '#882222',
          'caption' => 'Transparent Background',
     ])
     ->setClassRange(5)
     ->setData([ 1, 5, 8, 10, 11, 14, 16, 19, 20, ])
     ->create('img/TransparentBackground.png');

• Result: examples/img/TransparentBackground.png
