Como Implementar Visualizacao de Dados com Claude Code

Building Charts Efficiently with Claude Code

Data visualization is essential for web apps, but memorizing the API specifications for Chart.js or D3.js is a challenge. With Claude Code, you can simply describe what kind of chart you want, and get working code immediately.

Building a Dashboard with Chart.js

You can generate a sales dashboard using Chart.js with the following prompt.

> Create a monthly sales dashboard component in React using Chart.js.
> Make it switchable between bar chart and line chart.

Example generated code:

import { useState } from "react";
import {
  Chart as ChartJS,
  CategoryScale,
  LinearScale,
  BarElement,
  LineElement,
  PointElement,
  Title,
  Tooltip,
  Legend,
} from "chart.js";
import { Bar, Line } from "react-chartjs-2";

ChartJS.register(
  CategoryScale, LinearScale, BarElement,
  LineElement, PointElement, Title, Tooltip, Legend
);

const salesData = {
  labels: ["Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May", "Jun"],
  datasets: [
    {
      label: "Sales ($K)",
      data: [120, 190, 150, 210, 180, 250],
      backgroundColor: "rgba(99, 102, 241, 0.5)",
      borderColor: "rgb(99, 102, 241)",
      borderWidth: 2,
    },
  ],
};

const options = {
  responsive: true,
  plugins: {
    legend: { position: "top" as const },
    title: { display: true, text: "Monthly Sales Report" },
  },
};

export function SalesDashboard() {
  const [chartType, setChartType] = useState<"bar" | "line">("bar");

  return (
    <div className="p-4">
      <div className="mb-4 flex gap-2">
        <button
          onClick={() => setChartType("bar")}
          className={chartType === "bar" ? "btn-active" : "btn"}
        >
          Bar Chart
        </button>
        <button
          onClick={() => setChartType("line")}
          className={chartType === "line" ? "btn-active" : "btn"}
        >
          Line Chart
        </button>
      </div>
      {chartType === "bar" ? (
        <Bar data={salesData} options={options} />
      ) : (
        <Line data={salesData} options={options} />
      )}
    </div>
  );
}

Real-Time Data Visualization

It’s also easy to implement real-time chart updates with data fetched from an API.

import { useEffect, useRef } from "react";
import { Chart } from "chart.js/auto";

export function RealtimeChart({ endpoint }: { endpoint: string }) {
  const canvasRef = useRef<HTMLCanvasElement>(null);
  const chartRef = useRef<Chart | null>(null);

  useEffect(() => {
    if (!canvasRef.current) return;

    chartRef.current = new Chart(canvasRef.current, {
      type: "line",
      data: {
        labels: [],
        datasets: [{
          label: "Real-time Data",
          data: [],
          borderColor: "rgb(34, 197, 94)",
          tension: 0.3,
        }],
      },
      options: {
        animation: { duration: 300 },
        scales: { x: { display: true }, y: { beginAtZero: true } },
      },
    });

    const interval = setInterval(async () => {
      const res = await fetch(endpoint);
      const { value, timestamp } = await res.json();
      const chart = chartRef.current;
      if (!chart) return;

      chart.data.labels!.push(timestamp);
      chart.data.datasets[0].data.push(value);

      // Show only the last 20 entries
      if (chart.data.labels!.length > 20) {
        chart.data.labels!.shift();
        chart.data.datasets[0].data.shift();
      }
      chart.update();
    }, 2000);

    return () => {
      clearInterval(interval);
      chartRef.current?.destroy();
    };
  }, [endpoint]);

  return <canvas ref={canvasRef} />;
}

Auto-Generating Charts from CSV Data

When you ask Claude Code to “create a feature that displays a chart from an uploaded CSV file,” it implements everything from file reading to parsing and display.

function csvToChartData(csv: string) {
  const lines = csv.trim().split("\n");
  const headers = lines[0].split(",");
  const labels = lines.slice(1).map((line) => line.split(",")[0]);

  const datasets = headers.slice(1).map((header, i) => ({
    label: header,
    data: lines.slice(1).map((line) => parseFloat(line.split(",")[i + 1])),
    borderColor: `hsl(${i * 60}, 70%, 50%)`,
    backgroundColor: `hsla(${i * 60}, 70%, 50%, 0.2)`,
  }));

  return { labels, datasets };
}
