I am currently learning golang and a bit of webstuff on the way. So excuse my maybe not so smart question
My problem is that I want to provide a Highchart with dynamic Data. I looked up the documentation and the example but cannot get it to work.
The Highchart example:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.highcharts.com/highcharts.js"></script>
<!-- 2. Add the JavaScript to initialize the chart on document ready -->
<script>
var chart; // global
/**
* Request data from the server, add it to the graph and set a timeout to request again
*/
function requestData() {
$.ajax({
url: 'http://localhost:3000/',
success: function(point) {
var series = chart.series[0],
shift = series.data.length > 20; // shift if the series is longer than 20
// add the point
chart.series[0].addPoint(eval(point), true, shift);
// call it again after one second
setTimeout(requestData, 1000);
},
cache: false
});
}
$(document).ready(function() {
chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo: 'container',
defaultSeriesType: 'spline',
events: {
load: requestData
}
},
title: {
text: 'Live random data'
},
xAxis: {
type: 'datetime',
tickPixelInterval: 150,
maxZoom: 20 * 1000
},
yAxis: {
minPadding: 0.2,
maxPadding: 0.2,
title: {
text: 'Value',
margin: 80
}
},
series: [{
name: 'Random data',
data: [1]
}]
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<!-- 3. Add the container -->
<div id="container" style="width: 800px; height: 400px; margin: 0 auto"></div>
My Server should Provide a json encoding string as requested.
func main(){
http.HandleFunc("/",foo)
http.ListenAndServe(":3000", nil)
}
func foo(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
numbers := []int{14,5}
js, err := json.Marshal(numbers)
if err != nil {
http.Error(w, err.Error(), http.StatusInternalServerError)
return
}
fmt.Println("Received Request")
w.Header().Set("Content-Type", "text/json")
w.Write(js)
}
I can see that the highchart makes a request. My guess it that the ajax call does not understand my json?
Thanks for any help in advance :)
Edit: Do I habe to do a success message as a return too?
