HighFaces - Ultimate JSF2 / Chart Library based on HighCharts

What are you using for building charts in JSF ? PrimeFaces charts? HighCharts ? Well, is good to know that based on HighCharts, but in JSF style, we can use HighFaces. Here it is a simple example from HighFaces Showcase:

Simple Java bean:

@ManagedBean

@RequestScoped

public class LineChartBean {

    protected List<Integer> simpleList;

     

    public List<Integer> getSimpleList() {

        return simpleList;

    }           

     

    public LineChartBean() {

        reload();

    }

    private void reload() {

        simpleList = new ArrayList<>();

         

        Random r = new Random();

        for (int i = 2000; i < 2010; i++) {

            simpleList.add(r.nextInt(500) + 800);   

        } 

    }

}

JSF page:

<hf:chart type="line" value="# {lineChartBean.simpleList}" var="point"

     point="# {point}" title="List of Integer values" xaxisLabel="Index" yaxisLabel="Amount"/>

Output:
