HTML horizontal bar chart with a goal line? - html

Question

Is there a library that handles drawing an HTML horizontal bar chart, but with a goal line included, so the gap between the progress and the goal can be seen? I'd call this a 'horserace bar chart', but apparently no one else does.
Something like this:

Answer 1

you can use the library Chart.js
Example: Here is the jquery code to draw a horizontal line.
var data = {
labels: ["JAN", "FEB", "MAR", "APR", "MAY", "JUN", "JUL", "AUG", "SEP", "OCT", "NOV", "DEC"],
datasets: [{
data: [12, 3, 2, 1, 8, 8, 2, 2, 3, 5, 7, 1]
}]
};
var ctx = document.getElementById("LineWithLine").getContext("2d");
Chart.types.Line.extend({
name: "LineWithLine",
initialize: function () {
Chart.types.Line.prototype.initialize.apply(this, arguments);
},
draw: function () {
Chart.types.Line.prototype.draw.apply(this, arguments);
var point = this.datasets[0].points[this.options.lineAtIndex]
var scale = this.scale
console.log(this);
// draw line
this.chart.ctx.beginPath();
this.chart.ctx.moveTo(scale.startPoint+12, point.y);
this.chart.ctx.strokeStyle = '#ff0000';
this.chart.ctx.lineTo(this.chart.width, point.y);
this.chart.ctx.stroke();
// write TODAY
this.chart.ctx.textAlign = 'center';
this.chart.ctx.fillText("TODAY", scale.startPoint + 35, point.y+10);
}
});
new Chart(ctx).LineWithLine(data, {
datasetFill : false,
lineAtIndex: 2
});
