Usage

Creating a chart

See the PHP Highcharts documentation for details on how to create a chart object.

Rendering a chart

$chart = $this->container->get('misd_highcharts.renderer')->render($chart);
$container = $this->container->get('misd_highcharts.renderer')->renderContainer($chart);

In a Twig template:

{{ highcharts_render(chart) }}
{{ highcharts_render_container(chart) }}
