I am trying to add Highcharts to my Rails 4 project that already has the chartkick gem installed.

When I use the Google charting library, all charts seem to function as expected. When I add Highcharts instead, I am not able to see any charts.

I have identified the following: 1) If I add '= javascript_include_tag "components/highcharts.js", "chartkick" ' to my layout footer I am prompted by Rails to also add this asset as an initializer. 2) If I add this to the initializer, I am able to load the page, but charts aren't loaded. If I look in Firebug I get an error stating that Highcharts has been loaded twice.

I have also tried adding Highcharts JS to my application.js, without any luck (The page is loaded, but still no charts are displayed)

Any ideas?

You have to download highcharts.js from here http://api.highcharts.com/highcharts, you can customize it.

You have to put it on /assets/javascript/ folder of your rails application (saving as .js, do not create new file and copy content).

Now on your view you have to write:

And now you can work with it.
