Better documentation on the highchart plugin

[ganar]

Thanks a lot for the plugins @hugocore , they can be very valuable, given the limitations on the charting systems currently employed in freeboard.

• Can you create an example panel with a datasource for the highchart pie and the highchart series ?
• It's hard to fathom the configuration of highchart inside Freeboard and how to format the data for the charts. Can you provide a plain text example of the data for both kinds of charts?

Hey @ganar! Actually the reason for the lack of documentation is because that plugin is still in development. That picture belongs to another plugin "freeboard-node.js". I will see if in the following days I can finish things up and add some documentation about this plugin and create a pull request.

The plugin I am working on has line charts and pie charts widgets.

• Great! do tell if we can help with the development in any way.
• Were can we subscribe to view the new code when you push it?

Hey guys. I have built a couple of widget plugins that I'd like to contribute to the community. One is for charting/graphing using jqplot and the other does databinding using the handlebars.

https://github.com/jritsema/freeboard-jqplot
https://github.com/jritsema/freeboard-handlebars

Is the idea for this repo to be a collection of various plugins developed by the community or this only official plugins?

Thanks.
