Sketchify is a js tool that turns svg graph into sketchy visualization. It is based on Rough.js

npm install npm run build

To turn an existing graph that composed by svg into sketch mode.

Add dependencies to your html:

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/rough.js/3.1.0/rough.js"></script> <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.4.1/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/gangtao/sketchify/dist/sketchify.min.js"></script>

Run following js code:

const option = { fillStyle: 'hachure', roughness: 1, bowing: 1, chartType: 'highcharts', }; // container is the root dom element that contains related graph svg const handler = Sketchifier(container, option); handler.handify(); // call restore will turn the graph back to original one handler.restore();

Refer to roughjs api document for options of fillStyle, roughness and bowing.

There are 5 demo charts types:

After npm run build-dev, open related html file in demo folder will show you the demo.
