can  
create graphs with a similar interface to Gruff, but offload the  
rendering  
to the browser!

## FEATURES/PROBLEMS:

- Needs more tests!

## SYNOPSIS:

An example in rails. Your controller:

class GraphController \< ApplicationController  
def index  
@drawr = Drawr::Pie.new  
@drawr.title = “Twan”  
@drawr.data(“One”, [1])  
@drawr.data(‘Two’, [2])  
@drawr.data(‘Three’, [2])  
@drawr.data(‘Four’, [10])  
@drawr.data(‘Five’, [6])  
end  
end

Your view:

 \<%= javascript\_include\_tag 'prototype' %\> \<%= javascript\_include\_tag 'excanvas' %\> \<%= javascript\_include\_tag 'Plotr' %\> \<%= @drawr %\>

Any thoughts about exposing a drawing interface, as well as the charting  
interface?

Ya, we haven’t posted the rdoc for it yet. Just download the gem and  
check out the RDoc. 😉

I haven’t thought of doing that yet, but I’ll look in to how difficult  
that will be.
