[PROPOSAL] ECharts - proposal for Apache Incubation
Hi, Dear Apache Incubator Community,
Please accept the follow proposal for presentation and discussion:
https://wiki.apache.org/incubator/EChartsProposal
ECharts is a charting and data visualization library written in JavaScript .
It has been an open source project on github since 2013， and is one of the
most popular repositories in topic of data visualization category in github.
Best regards.
Below is the proposal also.
= ECharts Proposal =
=== Abstract ===
ECharts is a charting and data visualization library written in JavaScript.
=== Proposal ===
ECharts provides a powerful, interactive charting and data visualization library
and framework for web browser, mobile App and backend usage.
=== Background ===
A primary goal of data visualization is to communicate information clearly and
efficiently via statistical graphics, plots and other graphics.
Numerical data may be presented in dots, lines, or bars, to visually communicate
a quantitative message. Effective visualization helps users to analyze data .
It makes complex data more readable, understandable.[1]
Now data visualization concerns mainly about presentation and propagation in web,
ECharts uses JavaScript as its basic programing language. It brings great
compatibility across multiple platforms, not only in web browsers, but also
in mobile Apps via embedded web engine or in backend environment via the techniques
of headless browser.
=== Rationale ===
ECharts encapsulates the underlying data transformation, control flow, visual
encoding and rendering, receiving the visualization requirements with declarative language,
and produces interactive charts and components. We will highlight the features below to
illustrate the power that ECharts already has, and our concerns and our visions:
* User Diversity:
ECharts expects that its users are not only web developers, but also
people with lesser programing skills. So ECharts enables users to
describe data and settings with declarative language, which lowers
the barrier but without losing the power, and benefit to transfer
and store.
* Configurable Interactions:
ECharts has provided plenty of interactions and aims at providing more.
Both human interactions and the interactions with upper program are
supported and can be configurable.
* Large Data:
Although the browser environment and JavaScript bring some performance
limits in visualizing large data or performing animations, ECharts have
been adopting various optimization techniques to rise the upper limit
of the amount of data that it can process, and keep improving the
fluency of interactions and animations.
* Cross-Platform:
The underlying render engine of ECharts can be switched between
HTMLCanvas, SVG, or VML, which provides good compatibility and brings
opportunities to optimize performance according to different platform
and usage scenarios. Besides, ECharts can also works in backend
environment via headless techniques.
ECharts can be created using headless browsers to pregenerate reports on
more powerful machines for better performance on resource-limited devices
*Extension and Customization:
ECharts provides extension mechanisms to make new types of chart and components,
adopt other layout algorithms, or even adopt other render techniques.
Various developers have contributed different types of extensions based on ECharts.[2]
=== Current Status ===
ECharts has been an open source project on GitHub[3] since 2013.
Currently it has more than 20k stars, more than 50k monthly downloads[4]
in NPM, and is one of the most popular repositories in topic of data
visualization category in GitHub.[5] And it has been used in many
products of Baidu and other companies such as Alibaba, Tencent, Netease,
XinHua News Agency,National Bureau of Statistics of China, Sina,
State Grid Corporation of China, Lenovo, Ctrip etc.
=== Meritocracy ===
The ECharts project already operates on meritocratic principles.
It was originally created by Lin Zhifeng in 2013,adding developers
worldwide and has accepted multiple major patches from a diverse set
of contributors.
We will follow ASF meritocratic principles to encourage more
developers to contribute in this project. We know that only active and
committed developers from a diverse set of backgrounds can make ECharts
a successful project. We are also improving the project documentation
and code to help new developers to get started quickly.
=== Community ===
ECharts has been building an active community for the last four years.
Currently, the community includes over 50 contributors .
The core developers of our project are listed below.
=== Core Developers ===
* Su Shuang (https://github.com/100pah sushuang0322@gmail.com )
* Shen Yi (https://github.com/pissang shenyi.914@gmail.com )
* Zhang Wenli (https://github.com/Ovilia me@zhangwenli.com )
* Li Deqing (https://github.com/deqingli annong035@gmail.com)
* Dong Rui (https://github.com/erik168 errorrik@gmail.com)
=== Alignment ===
ECharts is popular in data visualization and charting on web projects.
And ASF has many famous web projects and big data related projects.
We believe that ASF is a perfect choice to help ECharts project to
attract more developers and have more cooperation with existing projects.
=== Known Risks ===
==== Orphaned products ====
Given the current level of investment in ECharts and the stakeholders
using it - the risk of the project being abandoned is minimal.
Baidu, for example, is in active development to use ECharts in many of
its services and many large corporations including Alibaba, Tencent,
Huawei, Sina, Lenovo use it in their production applications.
==== Inexperience with Open Source ====
ECharts has been an active open source project for more than 4 years.
During that time, the project has attracted 50+ contributors.
==== Homogenous Developers ====
The most of core developers are from Baidu, but after ECharts was open sourced,
ECharts received a lot of bug fixes and enhancements from other developers not working at Baidu.
And the founder of ECharts,Lin Zhifeng still contributes a lot after he left Baidu.
=== Reliance on Salaried Developers ===
Although some of the developers are salaried, the project is personally initiated from
the beginning. The core developers have been dedicated to this project for four years
and have kept the project independent with developers around the world involved.
=== Relationships with Other Apache Products ===
We have not found an existing charting project in Apache yet. And there is potential
cooperation with some existing Apache projects big data related.
=== A Excessive Fascination with the Apache Brand ===
Our interests and motivations are based on the factors mentioned in the Rationale
section rather than the publicity. Furthermore, the brand of ECharts has been successful
in the past years on their own and we would be happy to keep on this path. We are honored
at getting the opportunity to join the ASF, with the understanding to ensure its brand
policies are respected.Also we expect that Apache brand will help to attract more contributors.

Re: [PROPOSAL] ECharts - proposal for Apache Incubation
Posted by ShaoFeng Shi <sh...@apache.org>.
ECharts is a popular web toolkit as I know; We can quickly build very fancy
web charts with it; In our scenario (OLAP front-end), ECharts directly
connect with Apache Kylin REST server within JavaScript, no middleware
layer needed; This framework is very agile and lightweight.
Glad to see it can benefit more by joining Apache incubator.

Re: [PROPOSAL] ECharts - proposal for Apache Incubation
Posted by Willem Jiang <wi...@gmail.com>.
It's great to see that ECharts be a part of Apache incubating project.
As Wu Shen and I are in Beijing, we could share you some experiences of
incubating project setup things.

Re: [PROPOSAL] ECharts - proposal for Apache Incubation
Posted by Hao Chen <ha...@apache.org>.
Great to hear that ECharts is coming to ASF!
ECharts is a great chart library with good documentation and well community
support. In Apache Eagle, we use ECharts a lot for monitoring dashboards
and data visualization.
Welcome and Good luck!

Re: [PROPOSAL] ECharts - proposal for Apache Incubation
Posted by 吴晟 Sheng Wu <wu...@foxmail.com>.
Hi, ECharts community team.
Glad your guys bringing the project to Apache. SkyWalking 's next release will use some ECharts charts for our APM visualization. (already in developing branch)
So if you like, you can put `Apache SkyWalking (Incubating)` in your "Relationships with Other Apache Products" section.
This is a good and useful project. Welcome and gook luck.

Subject: [PROPOSAL] ECharts - proposal for Apache Incubation
Hi, Dear Apache Incubator Community,
Please accept the follow proposal for presentation and discussion:
https://wiki.apache.org/incubator/EChartsProposal
ECharts is a charting and data visualization library written in JavaScript .
It has been an open source project on github since 2013， and is one of the
most popular repositories in topic of data visualization category in github.
Best regards.
Below is the proposal also.
= ECharts Proposal =
=== Abstract ===
ECharts is a charting and data visualization library written in JavaScript.
=== Proposal ===
ECharts provides a powerful, interactive charting and data visualization library
and framework for web browser, mobile App and backend usage.
=== Background ===
A primary goal of data visualization is to communicate information clearly and
efficiently via statistical graphics, plots and other graphics.
Numerical data may be presented in dots, lines, or bars, to visually communicate
a quantitative message. Effective visualization helps users to analyze data .
It makes complex data more readable, understandable.[1]
Now data visualization concerns mainly about presentation and propagation in web,
ECharts uses JavaScript as its basic programing language. It brings great
compatibility across multiple platforms, not only in web browsers, but also
in mobile Apps via embedded web engine or in backend environment via the techniques
of headless browser.
=== Rationale ===
ECharts encapsulates the underlying data transformation, control flow, visual
encoding and rendering, receiving the visualization requirements with declarative language,
and produces interactive charts and components. We will highlight the features below to
illustrate the power that ECharts already has, and our concerns and our visions:
* User Diversity:
ECharts expects that its users are not only web developers, but also
people with lesser programing skills. So ECharts enables users to
describe data and settings with declarative language, which lowers
the barrier but without losing the power, and benefit to transfer
and store.
* Configurable Interactions:
ECharts has provided plenty of interactions and aims at providing more.
Both human interactions and the interactions with upper program are
supported and can be configurable.
* Large Data:
Although the browser environment and JavaScript bring some performance
limits in visualizing large data or performing animations, ECharts have
been adopting various optimization techniques to rise the upper limit
of the amount of data that it can process, and keep improving the
fluency of interactions and animations.
* Cross-Platform:
The underlying render engine of ECharts can be switched between
HTMLCanvas, SVG, or VML, which provides good compatibility and brings
opportunities to optimize performance according to different platform
and usage scenarios. Besides, ECharts can also works in backend
environment via headless techniques.
ECharts can be created using headless browsers to pregenerate reports on
more powerful machines for better performance on resource-limited devices
*Extension and Customization:
ECharts provides extension mechanisms to make new types of chart and components,
adopt other layout algorithms, or even adopt other render techniques.
Various developers have contributed different types of extensions based on ECharts.[2]
=== Current Status ===
ECharts has been an open source project on GitHub[3] since 2013.
Currently it has more than 20k stars, more than 50k monthly downloads[4]
in NPM, and is one of the most popular repositories in topic of data
visualization category in GitHub.[5] And it has been used in many
products of Baidu and other companies such as Alibaba, Tencent, Netease,
XinHua News Agency,National Bureau of Statistics of China, Sina,
State Grid Corporation of China, Lenovo, Ctrip etc.
=== Meritocracy ===
The ECharts project already operates on meritocratic principles.
It was originally created by Lin Zhifeng in 2013,adding developers
worldwide and has accepted multiple major patches from a diverse set
of contributors.
We will follow ASF meritocratic principles to encourage more
developers to contribute in this project. We know that only active and
committed developers from a diverse set of backgrounds can make ECharts
a successful project. We are also improving the project documentation
and code to help new developers to get started quickly.
=== Community ===
ECharts has been building an active community for the last four years.
Currently, the community includes over 50 contributors .
The core developers of our project are listed below.
=== Core Developers ===
* Su Shuang (https://github.com/100pah sushuang0322@gmail.com )
* Shen Yi (https://github.com/pissang shenyi.914@gmail.com )
* Zhang Wenli (https://github.com/Ovilia me@zhangwenli.com )
* Li Deqing (https://github.com/deqingli annong035@gmail.com)
* Dong Rui (https://github.com/erik168 errorrik@gmail.com)
=== Alignment ===
ECharts is popular in data visualization and charting on web projects.
And ASF has many famous web projects and big data related projects.
We believe that ASF is a perfect choice to help ECharts project to
attract more developers and have more cooperation with existing projects.
=== Known Risks ===
==== Orphaned products ====
Given the current level of investment in ECharts and the stakeholders
using it - the risk of the project being abandoned is minimal.
Baidu, for example, is in active development to use ECharts in many of
its services and many large corporations including Alibaba, Tencent,
Huawei, Sina, Lenovo use it in their production applications.
==== Inexperience with Open Source ====
ECharts has been an active open source project for more than 4 years.
During that time, the project has attracted 50+ contributors.
==== Homogenous Developers ====
The most of core developers are from Baidu, but after ECharts was open sourced,
ECharts received a lot of bug fixes and enhancements from other developers not working at Baidu.
And the founder of ECharts,Lin Zhifeng still contributes a lot after he left Baidu.
=== Reliance on Salaried Developers ===
Although some of the developers are salaried, the project is personally initiated from
the beginning. The core developers have been dedicated to this project for four years
and have kept the project independent with developers around the world involved.
=== Relationships with Other Apache Products ===
We have not found an existing charting project in Apache yet. And there is potential
cooperation with some existing Apache projects big data related.
=== A Excessive Fascination with the Apache Brand ===
Our interests and motivations are based on the factors mentioned in the Rationale
section rather than the publicity. Furthermore, the brand of ECharts has been successful
in the past years on their own and we would be happy to keep on this path. We are honored
at getting the opportunity to join the ASF, with the understanding to ensure its brand
policies are respected.Also we expect that Apache brand will help to attract more contributors.

Yes, although there are many contributors, the active core developers now
are all from Baidu.
We want attract more developers to join this project, that is one reason
We want to become an apache project.

Re: [PROPOSAL] ECharts - proposal for Apache Incubation
Posted by Dave Fisher <da...@comcast.net>.
Hi -
(1) This looks really cool and I would like to volunteer to Mentor the project.
(2) You mention that there are over 50 contributors, but only list 5 core developers. Are the 5 core developers all from Baidu? Do you plan to quickly invite some of the other contributors?
Regards,
Dave

Re: [PROPOSAL] ECharts - proposal for Apache Incubation
Posted by "Tan,Zhongyi" <ta...@baidu.com>.
Yes, we will follow apache rules,
So the possible solution is to move the existing echarts repo to apache/incubator-echarts

Your current GitHub may be moved to apache/incubator-echarts and infrastructure can mirror this repository into the Apache repository. It is important that source code be under Apache control for eCharts to become an Apache project.

Tan can probably speak more to this. I had made an assumption that this
section meant the repo would change from echarts to incubator-echarts, and
once they graduate back to the name echarts. All would be managed as
gitbox enabled repos (from our side).
BTW, i'm going to add you as a mentor to the project. I'm also assuming
Kevin meant to be listed as mentor as well. Thanks for the offer!

Great.
We know that CarbonData is one project contributed by Huawei,
And become TLP project last year.
I believe that we will have more cooperation between these two projects in
the future.

I am going to participate in some contribution once this project enter
incubator.
And our project(Apache CarbonData) looks forward to building ecosystem with
ECharts.
Good Luck!
