Pie chart using Charts library with swift 3

Question

I am integrating pie chart in my app using Charts library and getting issue with chart data my code is

import UIKit
import Charts
class ViewController: UIViewController {
 @IBOutlet weak var pieChartView: PieChartView!
    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        let months = ["Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May", "Jun"]
        let unitsSold = [10.0, 4.0, 6.0, 3.0, 12.0, 16.0]
        setChart(dataPoints: months, values: unitsSold)

    }


func setChart(dataPoints: [String], values: [Double]) {

var dataEntries: [ChartDataEntry] = []

for i in 0..<dataPoints.count {
    let dataEntry1 = ChartDataEntry(x: Double(i), y: values[i], data: dataPoints[i] as AnyObject)

    dataEntries.append(dataEntry1)
}
print(dataEntries[0].data)
let pieChartDataSet = PieChartDataSet(values: dataEntries, label: "Units Sold")
let pieChartData = PieChartData(dataSet: pieChartDataSet)
pieChartView.data = pieChartData

var colors: [UIColor] = []

for _ in 0..<dataPoints.count {
    let red = Double(arc4random_uniform(256))
    let green = Double(arc4random_uniform(256))
    let blue = Double(arc4random_uniform(256))

    let color = UIColor(red: CGFloat(red/255), green: CGFloat(green/255), blue: CGFloat(blue/255), alpha: 1)
    colors.append(color)
}

pieChartDataSet.colors = colors
}
}

and when run app I getting something this

but I need pie chart in full data records like in below screen shot

Answer 1

The reason all the information isn't showing up is because you are using a parent initialiser when creating the entry point.

Instead of

let dataEntry1 = ChartDataEntry(x: Double(i), y: values[i], data: dataPoints[i] as AnyObject)

try this instead

let dataEntry1 = PieChartDataEntry(value: Double(i), label: dataPoints[i], data:  dataPoints[i] as AnyObject)

The PieChartDataEntry is specifically for Pie charts so you should see the month show up in the chart.

Hopefully this gets you on the right track

Update for this question.

  func updateChartData()  {

    let chart = PieChartView(frame: self.view.frame)
    // 2. generate chart data entries
    let track = ["Income", "Expense", "Wallet", "Bank"]
    let money = [650, 456.13, 78.67, 856.52]

    var entries = [PieChartDataEntry]()
    for (index, value) in money.enumerated() {
        let entry = PieChartDataEntry()
        entry.y = value
        entry.label = track[index]
        entries.append( entry)
    }

    // 3. chart setup
    let set = PieChartDataSet( values: entries, label: "Pie Chart")
    // this is custom extension method. Download the code for more details.
    var colors: [UIColor] = []

    for _ in 0..<money.count {
        let red = Double(arc4random_uniform(256))
        let green = Double(arc4random_uniform(256))
        let blue = Double(arc4random_uniform(256))
        let color = UIColor(red: CGFloat(red/255), green: CGFloat(green/255), blue: CGFloat(blue/255), alpha: 1)
        colors.append(color)
    }
    set.colors = colors
    let data = PieChartData(dataSet: set)
    chart.data = data
    chart.noDataText = "No data available"
    // user interaction
    chart.isUserInteractionEnabled = true

    let d = Description()
    d.text = "iOSCharts.io"
    chart.chartDescription = d
    chart.centerText = "Pie Chart"
    chart.holeRadiusPercent = 0.2
    chart.transparentCircleColor = UIColor.clear
    self.view.addSubview(chart)
