The postsparkline
directive is supplied by the postsparkline plugin.
This directive uses the sparkline plugin to create a sparkline of statistics about a set of pages, such as posts to a blog.
examples
Post interval:
[[!postsparkline pages="blog/* and !*/Discussion" max=100
formula=interval style=bar barwidth=2 barspacing=1 height=13]]
Posts per month this year:
[[!postsparkline pages="blog/* and !*/Discussion" max=12
formula=permonth style=bar barwidth=2 barspacing=1 height=13]]
usage
All options aside from the pages
, max
, formula
, time
, and color
options are the same as in sparkline directive.
You don't need to specify any data points (though you can if you want to).
Instead, data points are automatically generated based on the creation times
of pages matched by the specified pages
PageSpec. A maximum of
max
data points will be generated.
The formula
parameter controls the formula used to generate data points.
Available formulae:
interval
- The height of each point represents how long it has been since the previous post.perday
- Each point represents a day; the height represents how many posts were made that day.permonth
- Each point represents a month; the height represents how many posts were made that month.peryear
- Each point represents a year; the height represents how many posts were made that year.
The time
parameter has a default value of "ctime", since formulae use the
creation times of pages by default. If you instead want them to use the
modification times of pages, set it to "mtime".
To change the color used to draw the sparkline, use the color
parameter.
For example, "color=red".
