Gruff Graphs for Ruby

I needed to generate reports for my application for which i tried my hand with Gruff graphs.

The Gruff Graphing Library is a project to make beautiful graphs with Ruby. Can be used alone or with Ruby on Rails.

An example is given below

Install easily with Ruby Gems (RMagick required):

sudo gem install gruff

Or, use the Rails plugin, which includes a generator for making a Gruff controller:

# Install the plugin
./script/plugin install http://topfunky.net/svn/plugins/gruff

# Make a ReportsController and functional test
./script/generate gruff Reports

Also see the tests for examples of how to make a graph.
