将FSLab XPlot图形部署到Web

Question

I'm interested in deploying interactive graphics built with FSLabs XPlot wrappers around plot.ly and google charts to wordpress, xamarin and good old web platforms. I have scoured the documentation, which does a fantastic job of demoing the charting capabilities, but not so much how to integrate into a wordpress site, a xamarin app or an angular application with an F# Web Api back end.

Docs on this or pointesr would be be beyond helpful!

Thanks,

As nobody has found an answer and I have found the answer since posting, I have decided to post it here as a legit answer which solved my problem.

Step 1:

Create a class library for your charts in the foreign F# language, because most web dev's use C#

Step 2:

Create a sweet chart:

Step 3:

Reference and Serve sweet chart from C#:

1. Note you put all of the policy control into the hands of the web dev with no additional components.

2. Want google/twitter auth? Get it! Want routing controls, you have it all right here, no additional stuff, no additional staffing needed.

3. No additional admins needed.

Step 4:

Bind Chart to web application…

Note that you need to make a call to drawChart(); to ensure the chart draws, otherwise you have a race condition. That line of code is not pictured, but important.

Step 5:

Enjoy your charts
