Motivation

  • The chart documentation lists column as a type, but ApexCharts has no such type, so a column chart draws nothing.
  • Asking for stacked on a type that cannot stack, such as rangeBar, leaves the chart empty as well.

Description

  • Resolve the ApexCharts type once, at the top of build_sqlpage_chart, through an alias table that maps column to bar.
  • Read that resolved type in the ten places that used to read data.type, so an alias behaves like the type it names everywhere.
  • Pass stacked only for line, area and bar, and ignore it elsewhere.
  • Document column as a synonym of bar, and say which types honour stacked.
  • Drop a console.log of every chart's options.
  • Add two changelog entries.

Testing

  • The browser suite passes 28 tests, two of them new: a column chart draws vertical bars, and a rangeBar chart that asks to be stacked still draws.
  • npm test checks 38 files and reports nothing.
  • no console errors on card page fails for the reason described in fix(biome.js) :: fix remaining lint issues #1366, on this branch and on the unmodified base alike.

GitHub cannot base a pull request on a branch that lives in a fork, so all eight target main and each one carries the commits of those above it. Review and merge them in order:

  2. fix(modal) :: give modal component an accessible name #1367 :: fix(modal) :: give modal component an accessible name
  3. fix(map) :: ignore map coordinates that are not a pair of numbers #1368 :: fix(map) :: ignore map coordinates that are not a pair of numbers
