# Google Chart plugin

 * Is there a good Google Chart ([http://code.google.com/apis/chart/](http://code.google.com/apis/chart/))
   plugin available?
 * So far all I’ve found are plugins that are discontinued, not working or severely
   limited.
 * Ideally, such a plugin would:
    1. Like [Contact Form 7](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/contact-form-7/),
   creates multiple tabs by way of different charts. 2. Also like Contact Form 7,
   each individual tab (chart) shall have a unique shortcode (eg. [google-chart-
   1]) that allows embedding into any page/post. 3. Allow data-entry into a table
   within admin options (somewhat like Google Docs) 4. Allow all of Google’s different
   chart types: Pie, Scatter, Guage, Geo, Table, Tree map, Combo, Line, Bar, Column,
   Area, Candlestick, Annotated timeline, Intensity map, Motion chart, 5. Allow 
   selection of colors (use default if unselected) 6. Allow labeling of plot points

 * Would be great if it allows for a live stream of dynamic data, but that’s not
   a must have in v1

 * Hey just saw this request and it sounds like an interesting project.
 * Can you elaborate on the live stream of data requirement, please?
 * Thanks,

 * Live stream refers to hooking up with a data source and refreshing data frequently.
 * Applications may include stock or commodity prices or currency exchange rates
   or temperatures or wind speeds or number of visits to the site..etc etc

 * But as I said in OP, a plugin would be massively useful even without a live data
   feed.

 * I’ll look into this over the next week. The live data will be tricky since the
   source format would be different depending on where it comes from.
 * The other stuff doesn’t seem too difficult at all!

 * True! I was thinking more along the lines of the plugin defining a format and
   then if someone wants to use the function, they ensure that they supply data 
   in that format…
 * In my mind I had the image of a simple csv (pretty straightforward, even standard)
   or xml (defined by the plugin)
 * But again, I think 95% of the benefit can be achieved with probably something
   like 50% of the work, i.e. creation of the plugin without the live data complication,
   and I for one would be a very enthusiastic recipient
