So I kind of understand how to use the Google Charts Google Chart by manually entering data as shown in the example, but I just can't figure out how to ingest data from Google Sheets. The most confusing parts are what I can and can't remove from the example's code, like:
data.addRows([
['Research', 'Find sources', null,
new Date(2015, 0, 1), new Date(2015, 0, 5), null, 100, null],
['Write', 'Write paper', 'write',
null, new Date(2015, 0, 9), daysToMilliseconds(3), 25, 'Research,Outline'],
['Cite', 'Create bibliography', 'write',
null, new Date(2015, 0, 7), daysToMilliseconds(1), 20, 'Research'],
['Complete', 'Hand in paper', 'complete',
null, new Date(2015, 0, 10), daysToMilliseconds(1), 0, 'Cite,Write'],
['Outline', 'Outline paper', 'write',
null, new Date(2015, 0, 6), daysToMilliseconds(1), 100, 'Research']
]);
and
var data = new google.visualization.DataTable();
data.addColumn('string', 'Task ID');
data.addColumn('string', 'Task Name');
data.addColumn('string', 'Resource');
data.addColumn('date', 'Start Date');
data.addColumn('date', 'End Date');
data.addColumn('number', 'Duration');
data.addColumn('number', 'Percent Complete');
data.addColumn('string', 'Dependencies');
As well how I can properly make the query to my sheet and then draw the chart. Which, I guess, basically means I don't know squat and am bleeding from my eyes trying to make sense of this...
Here is my data: Google Sheets
As you can see, I'm clearly a JS illiterate. Any help is greatly appreciated. Below is my awful c&p frankencode:
google.charts.load('current', {'packages':['gantt']});
google.charts.setOnLoadCallback(drawChart);
function daysToMilliseconds(days) {
return days * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000;
}
function drawChart() {
var query = new google.visualization.Query('https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1M3wQgKg3JBF6_hzv1xWONP7HWVYoOvJ1jPbB27IUg94/gviz/tq?gid=0&headers=1');
query.setQuery('SELECT A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H');
query.send(function (response) {
if (response.isError()) {
alert('Error in query: ' + response.getMessage() + ' ' + response.getDetailedMessage());
return;
};
var data = new google.visualization.DataTable();
data.addColumn('string', 'Task ID');
data.addColumn('string', 'Task Name');
data.addColumn('string', 'Resource');
data.addColumn('date', 'Start Date');
data.addColumn('date', 'End Date');
data.addColumn('number', 'Duration');
data.addColumn('number', 'Percent Complete');
data.addColumn('string', 'Dependencies');
var data = response.getDataTable();
var options = {
height: 275
};
var chart = new google.visualization.Gantt(document.getElementById('chart_div'));
chart.draw(data, options);
}
