In my last post<\/a>, I talked about a quick little project that has grown into experimenting with several new tools\/processes.<\/p>\n

I finally got a reasonable release out on CPAN<\/a> as SVG::Sparkline<\/a> version 0.30. This version supports 6 different sparkline types: Area, Bar, Line, RangeArea, RangeBar, and Whisker. It also has better documentation in the form of a manual and a cookbook.<\/p>\n

Proving once again that you never know who’s watching, Jeff Schiller<\/a> (of SVG fame) commented on my last post that I needed a demo. <grumble\/> I had a little demo application that I was using to print a primitive gallery of sparklines for my own debugging purposes. I’ve cleaned up the output and put the Sparkline Gallery<\/a> on-line.<\/p>\n

I also found that the module did not have as high Kwalitee<\/a> as I expected. So, I did some cleanup to improve that value. (If you haven’t run across kwalitee<\/em> before, you might think it’s a misspelling. Actually, it’s a part joke\/part serious measure for Perl modules. Check out the article for details.<\/p>\n

I would have had this version finished sooner, if another SVG project had not distracted me. David Dailey mentioned<\/a> the idea of a Friendly Little Intermittent Clockfest. The last few times this subject came up, I was not tempted. For some reason, this time it bit me. Sometime soon, I’ll probably be adding an SVG clock gallery to my site as well.<\/p>\n

Every now and then the programming muse shows up and the ideas start flowing.<grin\/>
\nUpdate:<\/em> Thanks to a minor failure on my part the 0.30 release was missing the Manual. I’ve released 0.31 to fix that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
