This library provides a easy way to use the NEW google charts API from your c#/vb.net code.

All you have to do is to pass a datatable to the object and ask it for the javascript to be included in the aspx page.

The library is in a very early stage and any help would be appreciated.

In case you find any problem please let me know, I am happy to hear from you and try to find the solution as quick as possible. Leave a comment or get in touch on Twitter : @ademarsgomes

Build the project and copy GoogleChartWrapper.dll to your bin folder, then add the reference to the DLL.

To use in your code:

//This constructor allows you to inform title, chart type, width, height, div name (name of the div where the chart will be rendered)
GoogleChartWrapper test = new GoogleChartWrapper("Chart Title", ChartTypes.PieChart, 400, 400, "piechart");

//create datatable
DataTable testdata = new DataTable("Cars Sold");

//add columns
DataColumn year = new DataColumn("Year", typeof(String));
year.AllowDBNull = false;
testdata.Columns.Add(year);

DataColumn cars = new DataColumn("Cars");
cars.DataType = typeof(int);
testdata.Columns.Add(cars);

//adding new datarows
testdata.Rows.Add("2009", 333);
testdata.Rows.Add("2010", 2000);
testdata.Rows.Add("2011", 2560);
testdata.Rows.Add("2012", 2450);

//Generate Script
Page.ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptBlock(this.GetType(), "test", test.GenerateSCript(testdata));

The test project called GoogleChartWrapper.Tests.WebPageExamples contains few asp.net pages with examples of different types of charts. The other test project is a unit test project using nUnit.
