In this post, we are going to implement dynamic Highstock chart with Angular8 and ASP.Net Core. Previous post on Highchart that will help, please have an overview by following the link: https://shashangka.com/2018/06/15/dynamic-highchart-asp-net-core-angular6

Client Side:

Let’s add frontend packages by modifying package.json file.

Dependencies:

"angular-highcharts": "9.0.9",
"highcharts": "8.0.4"

Dev Dependencies:

"/highcharts": "^7.0.0",

Systemjs Config:

'angular-highcharts': 'npm:angular-highcharts/bundles/angular-highcharts.umd.js',
'highcharts': 'npm:highcharts/highstock.src.js',

Manage Packages:

gulp.src('./node_modules/angular-highcharts/**/*.js')
    .pipe(gulp.dest(root_path.package_lib + 'angular-highcharts'));

gulp.src('./node_modules/highcharts/**.js')
    .pipe(gulp.dest(root_path.package_lib + 'highcharts'));

Root Module:

import { ChartModule } from 'angular-highcharts';

Below is the updated code snippet in module.ts.

({
    imports: [
        ChartModule
    ]
})

Chart Component:

import { Component, OnInit } from '/core';
import { Title } from '/platform-browser';
import { DataService } from '../shared/service';
import { StockChart } from 'angular-highcharts';

({
    selector: 'app-home',
    templateUrl: './app/home/component.html',
    providers: [DataService]
})

export class HomeComponent implements OnInit {
    public res: any;
    public resmessage: string;
    public title: any;
    public chartstock: StockChart;
    public chartUrl: string = 'api/chart/getChartData';

    constructor(
        private titleService: Title,
        private _dataService: DataService) {
    }

    ngOnInit() {
        this.titleService.setTitle("Home-Chart");
        this.getChart();
    }

    getChart() {
        var getchartUrl = this.chartUrl;
        var dataService = this._dataService;

        //Chart
        var time = (new Date()).getTime();
        var totalPoint = 0;
        this.chartstock = new StockChart({
            chart: {  
                plotBackgroundColor: null,
                plotBorderWidth: null,
                plotShadow: false,
                backgroundColor: null,
                marginRight: 10,
                events: {
                    load: function () {                 
                        var series = this.series[0];
                        setInterval(function () {  
                             dataService.get(getchartUrl)
                            .subscribe(
                                response => {
                                    var resdata = response[0]
                                    if(response != null)
                                    {
                                        var x = resdata.sensTimeMilisec, y = resdata.sensValue;
                                        //var x = (new Date()).getTime(), y = Math.round(Math.random() * 100);
                                        series.addPoint([x, y], true, false);  

                                        //Show Console to UI
                                        console.log(totalPoint+". Client Data:"+time +"-::::::-API Data:"+ x +" "+y);

                                                    logger.innerHTML += (JSON && JSON.stringify ? JSON.stringify(arguments[i], undefined, 2) : arguments[i]) + '

                                                } else {
