Can I dynamatically load data and perform some advanced data setting?

[linonetwo]

My problem is something likes PhilJay/MPAndroidChart#789

When scaleX in LineChart, I want to load more detailed data , can I listen to the scaleX event and use https://github.com/PhilJay/MPAndroidChart/wiki/Dynamic-&-Realtime-Data to load more data?

And my data is something like

x	y
2016-01-01 15:00:00 GMT	25
2016-01-01 22:00:00 GMT	58
2016-01-02 08:00:00 GMT	36
2016-01-02 14:00:00 GMT	12
2016-01-02 19:00:00 GMT	29

It seems that it don't intervals with the date correctly, intervals are all the same. Can I use https://github.com/PhilJay/MPAndroidChart/wiki/Setting-Data to adjust data to have interval the same as numbers ?

Hi @linonetwo,

Unfortunately adding and removing data with these methods is not implemented at this moment.
Subscribing to available gesture events is also not implemented.

I can't promise you that I will have time to implement that soon.
Feel free to implement it and I will be happy to merge PR.

Regarding data intervals, if I understand correctly you are referring to something like BarChart example where there is gap.

If your data is in hourly intervals, maybe you can add null values between 2 values.
e.g.

x	y
2016-01-01 15:00:00 GMT	25
2016-01-01 16:00:00 GMT	null
2016-01-01 17:00:00 GMT	null
...
2016-01-01 21:00:00 GMT	null
2016-01-01 22:00:00 GMT	58

Hi @mskec, I'm glad to make a PR for Subscribing to available gesture events and dynamically adding and removing data since my company needs this feature recently.

But for data intervals, I have tried your solution, but too many data will cause horrible lagging. And I need to check if there is a data in a smaller interval:
| 2016-01-01 15:00:00 GMT | 25 |
| 2016-01-01 16:00:00 GMT | 33 |
| 2016-01-01 17:00:00 GMT | 66 |
...
| 2016-01-01 20:59:00 GMT | 99 | <- my god smaller interval !
| 2016-01-01 21:00:00 GMT | 99 |
| 2016-01-01 22:00:00 GMT | 58 |

Then I have to insert 59 nulls into every hour.
So preparing data is an O(n^3) function, which will take 2-3 min for API, lagging.....

Do you have Idea for this problem? Or mpandroid chart have no way to deal with this?

[mskec]

Thats what I thought. It might work for hours, but not for minutes or anything smaller.

I do not know whether https://github.com/PhilJay/MPAndroidChart has a way of dealing with that. You can research a bit and if they can do that maybe we can implement it here also.

I create a fork https://github.com/wuxudong/react-native-mp-android-chart
and update mpAndroidChart to V3,
now it support xValues as number. you can check demo at
