This short guide explains the process to create a Sunburst chart using Java in an Excel file. It provides steps for writing the application and a sample code for a Sunburst chart generator using Java. Details are also provided to configure the chart parameters and customize its visualization as per the requirements.
Steps to Create a Sunburst Chart using Java
- Establish the environment to use Aspose.Cells for Java to create a Sunburst chart
- Load or create a Workbook having hierarchical data for a Sunburst chart
- Set headers for the data and fill sample data if not available
- Add a Sunburst chart in the sheet and set its title
- Configure the data series, category hierarchy, title, and visual style of the chart
- Customize the chart visual style as per requirements
- Save the output Sunburst chart Workbook on the disk
This list of steps encompasses the complete process to develop a Sunburst chart creator using Java. Load or create a Workbook with the specified data for the chart with appropriate headers and hierarchical data, create a Sunburst chart, and set data series, category hierarchy, title, and visual style in it. Save the updated Workbook on the disk with data and a chart in it.
Code to Create Sunburst Chart using Java
The above sample code demonstrates the process to develop a Sunburst chart maker using Java. This code contains sample data; however, you can also load an existing Excel file with appropriate hierarchical data for the chart. Notice the conversion of the last column to a double value, as placing the string data here will not create a Sunburst chart.
