im working on a Google Chart API module allowing formAPI-like structures to be rendered into charts, eventually this will provide useful creation utility functions, caching, and other functionality. I would love to hear any suggestions you might have, I have only had a few hours to put into the project so far but im roughly 25% done a BETA release

Unfortunately, somebody is already working on this:

I took a look at the draft, on that respect mine is more robust at the moment, but there is no reason we could not collaborate efforts down the road. Thanks for pointing the project out.

Hello,

I've just posted the following to the devel list. Basically I'm wondering what any recent updates are. Thanks for any more information!

(The post to the devel list)

Hello, I'm considering using the Google Chart API for a project, and am just putting out feelers for the latest developments and if anyone has anything in motion besides what I've found w/ searching. If it works out based on our needs it would be ideal to build on something as opposed to start afresh.

- I've found there used to be a project here http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=http%3A%2F%2Fdrupal.org%2Fproject%2... but it is now disappeared or aliased elsewhere.

- I've found there is a module started here http://drupal.org/project/chart

- It sounds like there are already two modules according to http://drupal.org/node/200816 and its references (there's a module on that code.google.com thread)

Is there anything else underway or already committed? I also think I saw somewhere the idea of a Google chart views plugin.

Thanks for any more information.

Sorry about the mass confusion of project names! chartapi was mine when I started the project, then I moved it to 'chart' which is http://drupal.org/project/chart

I just committed the first official release a few days ago, feel free to have a look I have alot of documentation and examples, hopefully it will suit your needs. Also please feel free to commit any patches or feature requests that you have in mind.
