Formatters are used to format the values displayed on the y-axis by setting graph.value_formatter.

Public Instance Methods

route_format(target, idx, options = {}) click to toggle source

Called by the value marker component. Routes the format call to one of a couple possible methods.

If the formatter defines a format method, the returned value is used as the value. If the formatter defines a format! method, the value passed is expected to be modified, and is used as the value. (This may not actually work, in hindsight.)
