Create a Line Chart in SwiftUI using Charts API

So let’s start to learn and share create your project in XCode is you have have an existing one create a new Swift file with Line chart. and import the charts APi  with import Charts . After that let’s create a model class for the data.

Create a Swiftui Data Model Class

let’s create a new swift data model class with the name of ChartDate and adding some dummy data in the list.

import Foundation
import SwiftUI

struct ChartDate: Identifiable {

    var id = UUID().uuidString
    var date: Date
    var temperature: Double
    var animater: Bool = false
}

extension Date {
    func updateHour(value: Int)->Date{
        let calender = Calendar.current
        return calender.date(bySettingHour: value, minute: 0, second: 0, of: self) ?? .now
    }
}

let simple_date = [
    ChartDate(date: Date().updateHour(value: 6),temperature: 1230 ),
    ChartDate(date: Date().updateHour(value: 7),temperature: 1500 ),
    ChartDate(date: Date().updateHour(value: 8),temperature: 1030 ),
    ChartDate(date: Date().updateHour(value: 9),temperature: 1000 ),
    ChartDate(date: Date().updateHour(value: 10),temperature: 1930 ),
    ChartDate(date: Date().updateHour(value: 11),temperature: 1430 ),
    ChartDate(date: Date().updateHour(value: 12),temperature: 2230 ),
    ChartDate(date: Date().updateHour(value: 13),temperature: 1330 ),
    ChartDate(date: Date().updateHour(value: 14),temperature: 1930 ),            
]

 

In the chart list i add ChartData with date and  temperature value.

Create a Chart View and Add Data

in your main view let make a design and add line chart in your view.

Chart{
    ForEach(simpleAnytic){item in
    LineMark(
      x: .value("date ", item.date,unit: .hour),
      y: .value("views", item.temperature ) )
       }
         }.padding(.all,15)

SwiftUi Multiple chart with with Horizontal Scrolling

lets adding multiple chart with horizontal scrolling.

 

import SwiftUI
import Charts

struct OverviewView: View {

    
    @State private var selected = 1
    @State var simpleAnytic : [ChartDate] = simple_date

    

    var body: some View {

                VStack(alignment: .leading, content: {

                    ScrollView(.horizontal, showsIndicators: false) {

                        HStack{


                            VStack{
                                HStack{
                                    Text("Total Install : 23K")
                                        .font(.caption)
                                        .padding(.all, 10)
                                    Spacer()
                                    Text("12-Dec-2023")
                                        .font(.caption)
                                        .padding(.all, 10)
                                }.padding(.all,5)

                                Chart{
                                    ForEach(simpleAnytic){item in
                                        LineMark(
                                            x: .value("date ", item.date,unit: .hour),
                                            y: .value("views", item.temperature ) )
                                    }

                                }.padding(.all,15)
                            }.frame(width:350, height: 250)
                                .background(
                                    RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 20, style: .continuous)
                                        .fill(.white.shadow(.drop(radius: 2))))
                                .padding(.all,5)


                            VStack{
                                HStack{
                                    Text("Active User  : 21K")
                                        .font(.caption)
                                        .padding(.all, 10)
                                    Spacer()
                                    Text("12-Dec-2023")
                                        .font(.caption)
                                        .padding(.all, 10)
                                }.padding(.all,5)

                                Chart{
                                    ForEach(simpleAnytic){item in
                                        LineMark(
                                            x: .value("date ", item.date,unit: .hour),
                                            y: .value("views", item.temperature ) )
                                    }   

                                }.padding(.all,15)

                            }.frame(width:350 , height: 250)
                                .background(
                                    RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 20, style: .continuous)
                                        .fill(.white.shadow(.drop(radius: 2))))
                                .padding(.all,5)

                    }.frame(height: 300)
                        .transition(.move(edge: .bottom))
                })

       }
}

struct OverviewView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
    static var previews: some View {
        OverviewView()
    }
}
