Batch export

The batch mode is useful when you've multiple charts on a page and you want to export all of them together by calling a single JavaScript API. The exported files for each chart can either be saved individually, or all the exported charts can be saved as a single file.

The export process in Batch Mode can be visualized as under:

Elements involved

For enabling export of chart in batch mode, we'll need to assemble the following elements:

  • The chart itself is embedded using the FusionCharts JavaScript Class (FusionCharts.js). Here, we assume that you have been able to generate the chart for your page. If not, please refer to the relevant section of our documentation.
  • FusionCharts Export Component - This is named as FCExporter.swf and is present in Download Package > Charts. You'll need to copy-paste this SWF to your server. A good location will be to place this SWF along with your chart SWFs.
  • FusionCharts Export Component JavaScript class - This JavaScript class is named FusionChartsExportComponent.js and is present in Download Package > Charts folder. Place it where you've placed the FusionCharts.js on your web site (though not necessary, but this helps you centralize all FusionCharts related JS files)

So let's quickly get started and setup a simple example that does batch processing.
