@affino/charts-vue

Vue 3 SVG chart components backed by @affino/charts-core.

Install and styles

import { AffinoBarChart, AffinoTimeSeriesChart } from "@affino/charts-vue"
import "@affino/charts-vue/styles.css"

@affino/charts-vue/styles.css is the stable public CSS entry. Do not import hashed dist assets. Component geometry and behavior are self-contained; the stylesheet supplies documented light/dark theme tokens.

Balance and equity

<script setup lang="ts">
import { AffinoTimeSeriesChart } from "@affino/charts-vue"
import "@affino/charts-vue/styles.css"
import type { TimeSeries } from "@affino/charts-core"

const series: TimeSeries[] = [
  {
    id: "balance",
    label: "Balance",
    data: [
      { time: Date.UTC(2026, 0, 1), value: 10_000 },
      { time: Date.UTC(2026, 1, 1), value: 10_480 },
    ],
  },
  {
    id: "equity",
    label: "Equity",
    data: [
      { time: Date.UTC(2026, 0, 1), value: 9_940 },
      { time: Date.UTC(2026, 1, 1), value: 10_620 },
    ],
  },
]

const currency = (value: number) => new Intl.NumberFormat("en-US", {
  style: "currency",
  currency: "USD",
}).format(value)
</script>

<template>
  <AffinoTimeSeriesChart
    :series="series"
    title="Balance and equity"
    :y-axis="{ format: currency }"
    :tooltip="{ formatValue: currency }"
  />
</template>

The component renders all series in one SVG plot. Its built-in legend identifies series and toggles visibility. Hover, keyboard focus, Left/Right/Home/End navigation, the default tooltip, the tooltip slot, tooltip-change, and the crosshair use public data only.

Chart accessibility uses the SVG aria-label and description. When an explicit accessible label is present, the package omits the browser-native SVG title popup so it does not compete with the chart tooltip.

Drawdown

The package accepts supplied drawdown data and never calculates it.

<AffinoTimeSeriesChart
  :series="[{
    id: 'drawdown',
    label: 'Drawdown',
    presentation: { type: 'area' },
    data: [
      { time: Date.UTC(2026, 0, 1), value: 0 },
      { time: Date.UTC(2026, 1, 1), value: -0.084 },
    ],
  }]"
  :y-axis="{ includeZero: true, format: value => `${(value * 100).toFixed(1)}%` }"
  :tooltip="{ formatValue: value => `${(value * 100).toFixed(1)}%` }"
/>

Periodic returns

<AffinoBarChart
  :rows="[
    { month: 'Jan', value: 0.032 },
    { month: 'Feb', value: -0.018 },
    { month: 'Mar', value: 0 },
  ]"
  category-field="month"
  value-field="value"
  :value-formatter="value => `${(value * 100).toFixed(1)}%`"
/>

Positive and negative bars use separate theme tokens, geometry includes zero, and a built-in hover/focus tooltip uses the same formatter.

Declarative time-series interaction

Time-series interaction is declarative and enabled by default. The chart owns pointer capture, coordinate conversion, nearest-X resolution, crosshair rendering, tooltip positioning, and keyboard navigation:

<AffinoTimeSeriesChart
  :series="series"
  :interaction="{
    snap: 'nearest',
    tooltip: {
      followPointer: true,
      constrainToChart: true,
      offsetX: 12,
      offsetY: 12,
    },
    crosshair: { snap: 'nearest' },
  }"
/>

The interaction pipeline is pointer client coordinates → chart-local coordinates → plot X → UTC domain value → nearest actual domain timestamp → shared crosshair and tooltip state. Nearest lookup uses binary search over the sorted shared visible domain. A tie resolves to the earlier timestamp. Pointer Y is not used for X resolution.

The shared domain is the union of visible series timestamps. Each visible series contributes an exact value at the resolved timestamp; missing observations are omitted, never interpolated. Hidden legend series do not participate. Duplicate or unsorted timestamps are rejected by the existing time-series validator.

tooltip also accepts enabled, formatTime, formatValue, followPointer, constrainToChart, offsetX, and offsetY. The tooltip follows the raw pointer while its values and crosshair use the resolved domain X. The measured tooltip is placed inside the chart root with a preferred right/below placement, horizontal/vertical flipping, and final clamping. The overlay has pointer-events: none, so crossing it does not cause hover flicker.

The tooltip-change payload is typed and includes timestamp, domainValue, formatted entries, anchor (plot/SVG coordinates), pointer (client, chart-root, and plot coordinates), and placement. A custom slot owns presentation only:

<AffinoTimeSeriesChart :series="series">
  <template #tooltip="{ tooltip }">
    <strong>{{ tooltip.formattedTimestamp }}</strong>
    <div v-for="entry in tooltip.entries" :key="entry.seriesId">
      {{ entry.seriesLabel }}: {{ entry.formattedValue }}
    </div>
  </template>
</AffinoTimeSeriesChart>

When focused, the chart initially selects the middle timestamp. Left/Right move through the shared domain; Home/End select the first/last timestamp. Pointer and keyboard input update the same active state. Pointer leave and blur clear the transient interaction.

Time and numeric axes

timeAxis accepts locale, targetTickCount, minTickSpacing, format, and formatOptions. Timestamps are UTC Unix milliseconds and are never converted through local calendar parsing. yAxis.includeZero and yAxis.format control the generic numeric axis for positive, negative, zero, decimal, currency, and percentage values.

Themes

Use theme="light", theme="dark", or a reactive theme object. Data does not need to be recreated when themes change.

<AffinoTimeSeriesChart
  :series="series"
  :theme="{
    mode: 'dark',
    background: 'var(--app-surface)',
    grid: 'var(--app-border)',
    axis: 'var(--app-muted)',
    text: 'var(--app-text)',
    tooltipBackground: 'var(--app-overlay)',
    tooltipText: 'var(--app-overlay-text)',
    seriesColors: ['var(--app-accent)', 'var(--app-success)'],
    positive: 'var(--app-positive)',
    negative: 'var(--app-negative)',
    focus: 'var(--app-focus)',
    crosshair: 'var(--app-muted)',
    crosshairWidth: 1,
    crosshairDash: "4 3",
    crosshairOpacity: 0.85,
    tooltipSecondaryText: "var(--app-muted)",
    tooltipBorder: "var(--app-border)",
  }"
/>

Equivalent stable CSS custom properties include --affino-chart-background, --affino-chart-surface, --affino-chart-border, --affino-chart-grid, --affino-chart-axis, --affino-chart-text, --affino-chart-muted-text, --affino-chart-tooltip-background, --affino-chart-tooltip-text, --affino-chart-tooltip-secondary-text, --affino-chart-tooltip-border, --affino-chart-tooltip-shadow, --affino-chart-series-1 through --affino-chart-series-5, --affino-chart-positive, --affino-chart-negative, --affino-chart-focus, --affino-chart-crosshair, --affino-chart-crosshair-width, --affino-chart-crosshair-dash, and --affino-chart-crosshair-opacity. No internal selector or !important override is required.

Responsive behavior and reactivity

AffinoTimeSeriesChart observes its own container by default, recalculating width-dependent geometry and tick density. Set responsive="false" for a fixed width. Changes to series data, series membership, visibility, formatting, theme, height, width, and container width are reactive.

Additional components

The package continues to export AffinoAreaChart, AffinoBarChart, AffinoChartFrame, AffinoChartLegend, AffinoHistogram, AffinoLineChart, AffinoMetricCard, AffinoPieChart, and AffinoScatterChart.
