October 19, 2020 XpertPhp

In this article, we will explain to you how to Implement Google Pie Chart in laravel 8(Laravel 8 Google Pie Chart Example From Scratch). today we will fetch data into MySQL, and plot a Pie graph.

There are many types of charts provide by Google, like a bar chart, area chart, line chart, pie chart, etc. but here we use a Pie chart.

In this example, we will plot a Pie graph using Google API. so you can see below the following steps.

Overview

Step 1: Install Laravel 8
Step 2: Setting Database Configuration
Step 3: Create Routes
Step 4: Create Controller
Step 5: Create Blade Files
Step 6: Run Our Laravel Application

Step 1: Install Laravel 8

We are going to install laravel 8, so first open the command prompt or terminal and go to xampp htdocs folder directory using the command prompt. after then run the below command for laravel 8 install.

composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel laravel8_chart

1	composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel laravel8_chart

Step 2: Setting Database Configuration

After the complete installation of laravel. we have to database configuration. now we will open the .env file and change the database name, username, password in the .env file. See below changes in a .env file.

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=Enter_Your_Database_Name(laravel8_chart)
DB_USERNAME=Enter_Your_Database_Username(root)
DB_PASSWORD=Enter_Your_Database_Password(root)

DB_CONNECTION=mysql

DB_HOST=127.0.0.1

DB_PORT=3306

DB_DATABASE=Enter_Your_Database_Name(laravel8_chart)

DB_USERNAME=Enter_Your_Database_Username(root)

DB_PASSWORD=Enter_Your_Database_Password(root)

Step 3: Create Routes
Add the following route code in the “routes/web.php” file.

use App\Http\Controllers\UserController;

Route::get('pie-chart',[UserController::class, 'index']);

use App\Http\Controllers\UserController;

Route::get('pie-chart',[UserController::class, 'index']);

Step 4: Create Controller
Here below command help to create the controller and model.

php artisan make:controller UserController

1	php artisan make:controller UserController

UserController.php

<?php
 
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
 
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
Use DB;
use App\Models\User; 
use Carbon\Carbon;
 
class UserController extends Controller
{
     /**
     * Display a listing of the resource.
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function index()
    {
 
        $data['pieChart'] = User::select(\DB::raw("COUNT(*) as count"), \DB::raw("MONTHNAME(created_at) as month_name"))
        ->whereYear('created_at', date('Y'))
        ->groupBy('month_name')
        ->orderBy('count')
        ->get();
 
        return view('pie-chart', $data);
    }
}

?>

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;

Use DB;

use App\Models\User;

use Carbon\Carbon;

class UserController extends Controller

{

/**

* Display a listing of the resource.

* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response

public function index()

{

$data['pieChart'] = User::select(\DB::raw("COUNT(*) as count"), \DB::raw("MONTHNAME(created_at) as month_name"))

->whereYear('created_at', date('Y'))

->groupBy('month_name')

->orderBy('count')

->get();

return view('pie-chart', $data);

}

Step 5: Create Blade Files
So finally, first we need to create the pie-chart.blade.php file in the “resources/views/” directory and update the below code.
pie-chart.blade.php

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <title>Laravel 8 Google Oie Chart Example From Scratch - XpertPhp</title>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, shrink-to-fit=no">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.3.1/css/bootstrap.min.css">

	<body>
		<div class="container">
			<div id="pie-chart" style="width: 900px; height: 500px"></div> 
		</div>
		<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.gstatic.com/charts/loader.js"></script>
		<script type="text/javascript">
			google.charts.load('current', {'packages':['corechart']});
			google.charts.setOnLoadCallback(drawChart);
	 
			function drawChart() {
	 
			var data = google.visualization.arrayToDataTable([
				['Month Name', 'Registered User Count'],
	 
					@php
					foreach($pieChart as $d) {
						echo "['".$d->month_name."', ".$d->count."],";
					}
					@endphp
			]);
	 
			  var options = {
				title: 'Users Detail',
				is3D: false,
			  };
	 
			  var chart = new google.visualization.PieChart(document.getElementById('pie-chart'));
	 
			  chart.draw(data, options);
			}
		  </script>
	</body>
</html>

<!doctype html>

<head>

<title>Laravel 8 Google Oie Chart Example From Scratch - XpertPhp</title>

</head>

<body>

</div>

google.charts.load('current', {'packages':['corechart']});

google.charts.setOnLoadCallback(drawChart);

function drawChart() {

var data = google.visualization.arrayToDataTable([

['Month Name', 'Registered User Count'],

@php

foreach($pieChart as $d) {

echo "['".$d->month_name."', ".$d->count."],";

}

@endphp

]);

var options = {

title: 'Users Detail',

is3D: false,

};

var chart = new google.visualization.PieChart(document.getElementById('pie-chart'));

chart.draw(data, options);

}

</script>

</body>

</html>

Step 6: Run Our Laravel Application
We can start the server and run this example using the below command.

php artisan serve

1	php artisan serve

Now we will run our example using the below Url in the browser.

http://127.0.0.1:8000/pie-chart

1	http://127.0.0.1:8000/pie-chart
