6 Stock - A writer class for Excel Stock charts.
7
9 To create a simple Excel file with a Stock chart using
10 Spreadsheet::WriteExcel:
11
12 #!/usr/bin/perl -w
13
14 use strict;
15 use Spreadsheet::WriteExcel;
16
17 my $workbook = Spreadsheet::WriteExcel->new( 'chart.xls' );
18 my $worksheet = $workbook->add_worksheet();
19
20 my $chart = $workbook->add_chart( type => 'stock' );
21
22 # Add a series for each Open-High-Low-Close.
23 $chart->add_series( categories => '=Sheet1!$A$2:$A$6', values => '=Sheet1!$B$2:$B$6' );
24 $chart->add_series( categories => '=Sheet1!$A$2:$A$6', values => '=Sheet1!$C$2:$C$6' );
25 $chart->add_series( categories => '=Sheet1!$A$2:$A$6', values => '=Sheet1!$D$2:$D$6' );
26 $chart->add_series( categories => '=Sheet1!$A$2:$A$6', values => '=Sheet1!$E$2:$E$6' );
27
28 # Add the worksheet data the chart refers to.
29 # ... See the full example below.

34 This module implements Stock charts for Spreadsheet::WriteExcel. The
35 chart object is created via the Workbook add_chart() method:
36
37 my $chart = $workbook->add_chart( type => 'stock' );
38
39 Once the object is created it can be configured via the following
40 methods that are common to all chart classes:
41
42 $chart->add_series();
43 $chart->set_x_axis();
44 $chart->set_y_axis();
45 $chart->set_title();
46
47 These methods are explained in detail in
48 Spreadsheet::WriteExcel::Chart. Class specific methods or settings, if
49 any, are explained below.
50
52 There aren't currently any stock chart specific methods. See the TODO
53 section of Spreadsheet::WriteExcel::Chart.
54
55 The default Stock chart is an Open-High-Low-Close chart. A series must
56 be added for each of these data sources.
57
58 The default Stock chart is in black and white. User defined colours
59 will be added at a later stage.
60
62 Here is a complete example that demonstrates most of the available
63 features when creating a Stock chart.
64
65 #!/usr/bin/perl -w

67 use strict;
68 use Spreadsheet::WriteExcel;
69

71 my $worksheet = $workbook->add_worksheet();
72 my $bold = $workbook->add_format( bold => 1 );
73 my $date_format = $workbook->add_format( num_format => 'dd/mm/yyyy' );
74
75 # Add the worksheet data that the charts will refer to.
76 my $headings = [ 'Date', 'Open', 'High', 'Low', 'Close' ];
77 my @data = (
78 [ '2009-08-23', 110.75, 113.48, 109.05, 109.40 ],

92 $worksheet->write( $row, 3, $data->[3] );
93 $worksheet->write( $row, 4, $data->[4] );
94 $row++;
95 }
96
97 # Create a new chart object. In this case an embedded chart.
98 my $chart = $workbook->add_chart( type => 'stock', embedded => 1 );
99
100 # Add a series for each of the Open-High-Low-Close columns.
101 $chart->add_series(

115 values => '=Sheet1!$D$2:$D$6',
116 name => 'Low',
117 );
118
119 $chart->add_series(
120 categories => '=Sheet1!$A$2:$A$6',
121 values => '=Sheet1!$E$2:$E$6',
122 name => 'Close',
123 );
124
125 # Add a chart title and some axis labels.
126 $chart->set_title( name => 'Open-High-Low-Close', );
127 $chart->set_x_axis( name => 'Date', );
128 $chart->set_y_axis( name => 'Share price', );
129
130 # Insert the chart into the worksheet (with an offset).
131 $worksheet->insert_chart( 'F2', $chart, 25, 10 );
