Treemap Chart Configuration

Configure treemap charts for drizzle-cube dashboards. Treemaps display hierarchical data as nested rectangles, where size represents a metric.

Chart Type

chartType: 'treemap'

Basic Configuration

{
  id: 'treemap-1',
  title: 'Revenue by Category',
  query: JSON.stringify({
    dimensions: ['Products.category'],
    measures: ['Sales.totalRevenue']
  }),
  chartType: 'treemap',
  chartConfig: {
    xAxis: ['Products.category'],
    yAxis: ['Sales.totalRevenue']
  },
  x: 0, y: 0, w: 8, h: 6
}

Chart Configuration (chartConfig)

xAxis (Categories/Hierarchy)

• Type: string[]
• Required: Yes
• Purpose: Dimensions for hierarchical grouping (use multiple for nested hierarchy)
• Example: ['Products.category'] or ['Products.category', 'Products.subcategory']

series (Optional - Color Grouping)

• Type: string[]
• Purpose: Optional dimension for color-coding groups
• Example: ['Products.region']

yAxis (Size)

• Type: string[]
• Purpose: Measure determining rectangle size
• Example: ['Sales.revenue']

Examples

Sales by Category

{
  id: 'sales-treemap',
  title: 'Sales Distribution',
  query: JSON.stringify({
    dimensions: ['Products.category', 'Products.subcategory'],
    measures: ['Sales.totalRevenue']
  }),
  chartType: 'treemap',
  chartConfig: {
    xAxis: ['Products.category', 'Products.subcategory'],
    yAxis: ['Sales.totalRevenue']
  },
  x: 0, y: 0, w: 12, h: 7
}

Use Cases

• Hierarchical Proportions: Show nested categories
• Disk Space Usage: Visualize file/folder sizes
• Budget Allocation: Display spending hierarchy
• Market Composition: Show market segments
