Module Description
January 2023: Integrated Highcharts Editor 🥳
May 2021: The Easychart plugin and module was developed before Highcharts came up with their own Highcharts Editor. Since 5 years the Highcharts editor exists and can be found on https://www.highcharts.com/blog/products/highcharts-editor/ and https://github.com/highcharts/highcharts-editor. The fact that the people at Highsoft made their own editor means we were on the right track back then. It was a great journey, thanks all for your support. Hope Easychart made your life a little easier but now we think it's time to give the Highcharts editor a chance.
If there is anyone who thinks Easychart deserves a longer life, feel free to fork or even become a (co-) maintainer.
Cheers!

This module is a tool especially for content editors, to easily transform data in CSV format into Highcharts charts, using the Easychart-plugin.

Features
* Defines a new Content Type named 'Chart' that allows you to add charts to your website.
* Creates a Chart widget that you can use in your own content types.

With Easychart we hope to make the beauty of Highcharts accessible to almost everyone. The people at Highsoft are (y)our true heroes, credit where credit is due.
Installation With Drush, you can download the module and its required dependencies like so:
drush en easychart -y drush eci Make sure to clear the website's css-js cache after installing the javascript dependencies:
drush cc css-js For non-drush installation instructions, refer to readme.txt.
Upgrade from v2 to v3 Version 2 is a complete rewrite of the code so you will have to take these steps when upgrading from v1 to v2:
* Download v3 of this module.
* If you used the WYSIWYG plugin, you will need to enable the Easychart WYSIWYG module
* Run drush easychart-dependencies to upgrade Highcharts and Easychart
* Or if you don't use drush, then download v3.x of the Easychart library: https://github.com/bestuurszaken/easychart and v4.x of the Highcharts library
* Clear your caches
* Run update.php

It was born (somewhere in 2013) out of the need to make it possible for website-editors to embed and configure Highcharts in our websites in a more intuitive way than writing javascript code in the backend. So it has evolved from a sneaky textarea to a simple yet customizable user-interface where one can create a "Highcharts Options Object" (and thus a Highchart-chart) by pasting csv-data and clicking around.
