SPONSOR: zkoss.org
License: This plugin is licensed under the GNU GPLv2. The plugin source code itself does not include ZK Charts.
Source: GitHub repository
Dependencies: This plugin depends on ZK Charts, which are commercial products and are not covered by this plugin’s open-source license. Users must obtain valid licenses for these components separately for production use.

Description

This plugin enables iDempiere implementors to use ZK Charts components in iDempiere without modifying iDempiere core. It is designed as an optional add-on: you can install/uninstall it as a standard iDempiere OSGi plugin.
ZK Charts is a commercial product (evaluation is available via ZK download center).

Features

Integrate ZK Charts libraries into the iDempiere runtime as an optional add-on.
Provide example window/form(s) to verify charts render correctly in iDempiere.
Keep iDempiere core unchanged (plugin-based integration).

Installation

Download the release / install package from the GitHub repository.

Install the generated OSGi plugin + fragment into your iDempiere runtime (same way as other plugins). Note: A server restart may be required after installing fragments in some environments.

Usage

After installation, open the included example (if any) from the iDempiere menu and verify charts render correctly.
To use charts in your own windows/forms, add dependencies on this plugin and develop with ZK Charts as usual.
Demo builds may include evaluation versions of ZK Charts for demonstration purposes only. A valid commercial license is required for production use.
