This example demonstrates the minimal required configuration properties you need to configure a heatmap instance. Make sure the container you pass has a width and a height because heatmap.js will use the container's dimensions.
// minimal heatmap instance configuration
var heatmapInstance = h337.create({
// only container is required, the rest will be defaults
container: document.querySelector('.heatmap')
});
// now generate some random data
var points = [];
var max = 0;
var width = 840;
var height = 400;
var len = 200;
while (len--) {
var val = Math.floor(Math.random()*100);
max = Math.max(max, val);
var point = {
x: Math.floor(Math.random()*width),
y: Math.floor(Math.random()*height),
value: val
};
points.push(point);
}
// heatmap data format
var data = {
max: max,
data: points
};
// if you have a set of datapoints always use setData instead of addData
// for data initialization
heatmapInstance.setData(data);
