I have two files, one outputting data from a MySQL database and one drawing a Google Graph within a page with other metrics:
grab_twitter_stats.php Output:
[15, 32], [14, 55], [13, 45], [12, 52], [11, 57], [10, 55], [9, 58], [8, 42], [7, 44], [6, 40], [5, 54], [4, 52], [3, 60], [2, 71], [1, 43],
index.php Output:
<div id="curve_chart" style="width: 900px; height: 500px">
<script type="text/javascript">
google.charts.load('current', {packages: ['corechart']});
google.charts.setOnLoadCallback(drawChart);
function drawChart() {
var data = google.visualization.arrayToDataTable([
['Minutes', 'Tweets'],
<?php require('grab_twitter_stats.php');?>
]);
var options = {
title: 'Tweets in last 15 Minutes',
curveType: 'function',
hAxis: {
title: 'Last 15 Minutes',
direction: '-1'
},
legend: { position: 'bottom' }
};
var chart = new google.visualization.LineChart(document.getElementById('curve_chart'));
chart.draw(data, options);
}
</script>
</div>
This draws a graph that shows tweets in the last 15 minutes. I can get the graph to appear once, but upon trying to load a SetInterval, it does not refresh the Google Graph on the interval. I have tried wrapping the entire drawChart() function in it, and it doesn't seem to be working. I tried using AJAX but it is not formatted in JSON so ajax doesn't like it. Any suggestions on the easiest way to make this graph auto refresh?
