The ChartsCompiler is the "next-generation" method of creating charts for websites on the basis of CumulusMX based systems. Charts are defined in a dedicated [[Charts Definition Language (CDL)|Charts Definition Language]] and compiled into a file (or files) containing both the HTML/javascript menu infrastructure as well as the Highcharts javascript code to create the charts. Data - JSON files as produced by CumulusMX - is assumed to be present in the directory from where the page is called.
The compiler can be used within CumulusUtils website (intrinsic with the Website Generator [[ChartsCompiler#Implicit_activation|(Implicit Activation)]]) and the output can be used standalone (really standalone if you rename the output to .html) or standalone from within a users website (menu or link; [[ChartsCompiler#Explicit_activation|Explicit Activation]]). When used outside the CumulusUtils infrastructure, you must be aware of the [[cumulusutils.ini|parameters]] (section general) ''GeneratejQueryInclude'' and ''DoLibraryIncludes''.
