Gantt chart in splunk

[kasu_praveen]

Hi,
I am very new to Splunk and will be working on Splunk project. There is a requirement in my project to create Gantt chart. What is the best way to create Gantt chart?

1. With Splunk is that possible? If so can you show some references or examples, where I can get some knowledge on how to create with Splunk language?
2. Or Can I create gantt chart with external JS library and hook to Splunk with javascript SDK? (If possible) If so please suggest any good JS library to create Gantt chart and way to hook.

Thanks in advance.

Splunk already uses JScharts how ever it is a paired down version. You can get very technical with your charting using Advanced XML or Using the App framework. Check out this post building-a-gantt-chart.

Thanks for your time bmacias84.

Based on my project requirement, I wrote core JavaScript code, which will result in displaying "gantt-chart". My JavaScript code is looking for input's like X and Y-axis values.

Now the question is, I know my Splunk search is resulting in data required to prepare gantt-chart, But how to pass this search results data to JavaScript code and how to integrate this? Is there any existing examples I can refer?
