[D3.js](https://d3js.org/) (required)| billboard.js
 :---: | :---:
 4.x ~ 5.x | 1.x ~ 2.x
 6.x+ | 3.x+

Load billboard.js after D3.js.

```html
<!-- 1) Load D3.js and billboard.js separately -->
    <!-- Load D3: -->
    <script src="https://d3js.org/d3.v6.min.js"></script>

    <!-- Load billboard.js with base(or theme) style -->
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="$YOUR_PATH/billboard.css">
    <script src="$YOUR_PATH/billboard.js"></script>

<!-- 2) or Load billboard.js packaged with D3.js -->
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="$YOUR_PATH/billboard.css">
    <script src="$YOUR_PATH/billboard.pkgd.js"></script>
```

or use importing ESM.

```js
// 1) import billboard.js
// as named import with desired shapes and interaction modules
// https://github.com/naver/billboard.js/wiki/CHANGELOG-v2#modularization-by-its-functionality
import {bb, area, bar, zoom} from "billboard.js";

// or as importing default
import bb, {area, bar, zoom} from "billboard.js";

// 2) import css if your dev-env supports. If don't, include them via <link>
import "billboard.js/dist/billboard.css";

// or theme style. Find more themes from 'theme' folder
import "billboard.js/dist/theme/insight.css"
```

> **Note**
> - For migration from C3.js, checkout the [migration guide](https://github.com/naver/billboard.js/wiki/How-to-migrate-from-C3.js%3F).
> - If has an issue bundling for legacy browsers, checkout "[How to bundle for legacy browsers?](https://github.com/naver/billboard.js/wiki/How-to-bundle-for-legacy-browsers%3F)".

## Basic usage example

#### 1) Create chart holder element
```html
<div id="chart"></div>
```

#### 2) Generate a chart with options
```js
// generate the chart
var chart = bb.generate({
    bindto: "#chart",
    data: {
      // for ESM import usage, import 'line' module and execute it as
      // type: line(),
      type: "line",
      columns: [
          ["data1", 30, 200, 100, 400, 150, 250]
      ]
    },
    zoom: {
      // for ESM import usage, import 'zoom' module and execute it as
      // enabled: zoom()
      enabled: true
    }
});

// call some API
chart.load( ... );
```

## How to start developing billboard.js?

For anyone interested in developing billboard.js, follow the instructions below.
> Required Node.js version: `10.10.0+`

### Development Environment

#### 1. Clone the repository

Clone the billboard.js repository and install the dependency modules.

```bash
# Create a folder and move.
$ mkdir billboard.js && cd billboard.js

# Clone the repository.
$ git clone https://github.com/naver/billboard.js.git
```

#### 2. Install dependencies
`npm` and `Yarn` are supported.

```
# Install the dependency modules.
$ npm install

# or
$ yarn
```

#### 3. Build

Use npm script to build billboard.js

```bash
# Run webpack-dev-server for development
$ npm start

# Build
$ npm run build

# Generate jsdoc
$ npm run jsdoc
```

Two folders will be created after the build is completed.

- **dist** folder: Includes the **billboard.js** and **billboard.min.js** files.
- **doc** folder: Includes API documentation. The home page for the documentation is **doc/index.html**.

### Linting

To maintain the same code style and quality, we adopted [ESLint](https://eslint.org/). The [rules](https://github.com/naver/eslint-config-naver/tree/master/rules) are based on the [Airbnb JavaScript Style Guide](https://github.com/airbnb/javascript) with some modifications.
Setup your editor for check or run the below command for linting.

```bash
$ npm run lint
```

### Test

Once you created a branch and finished the development, you must perform a test with `npm test` command before the push to a remote repository.

```bash
$ npm test
```
Running the `npm test` command will start [Mocha](https://mochajs.org/) tests via [Karma-runner](https://karma-runner.github.io/).
