[FIXED] How can I create a Pie Chart with rounded slice edges?

Issue

I want to achieve the following effect, shown below in my iOS app (written in Swift)

So far I have been able to achieve this, using Charts by danielgindi. But I am not able to get the desired effect as I want to. Is there any way to add rounded corners to each Pie Chart slice like in this example image here?:

My Chart setup is as follows:

let data1 = PieChartDataEntry(value: 3)
let data2 = PieChartDataEntry(value: 5)
let data3 = PieChartDataEntry(value: 4)
let data4 = PieChartDataEntry(value: 6)
let data5 = PieChartDataEntry(value: 8)
let values = [data1, data2, data3, data4, data5]
let chartDataSet = PieChartDataSet(entries: values, label: nil)
let chartData = PieChartData(dataSet: chartDataSet)
let colors = [UIColor.fuelTintColor, UIColor.maintenanceTintColor, UIColor.insuranceTintColor, UIColor.fastagTintColor, UIColor.miscTintColor]
chartDataSet.colors = colors as! [NSUIColor]
chartDataSet.sliceSpace = 10
        
pieChart1.data = chartData
        
pieChart1.holeRadiusPercent = 0.8

I think it can be done using the PieChartRenderer but I have no idea how I should proceed.

Also, if you have any suggestions for other ways to implement this do let me know.

Solution

Solved it, and here's the output:

ring-chart-img

Basically I am using this library, called CircularProgressView (https://cocoapods.org/pods/CircleProgressView) to achieve the individual rings. Since I needed 5 rings, I stacked 5 such views (with clear background) on top of each other and rotated them to achieve my desired effect.

Cocoapod setup

First, you have to install the CircularProgressView pod in your project. I am using Cocoapods for importing the library here.

NOTE: If you do not have Cocoapods setup already then you need to install Cocoapods first using steps here: https://guides.cocoapods.org/using/getting-started.html

To add it using Cocoapods, add the following line in your Podfile.

pod 'CircleProgressView'

and run pod install on the Terminal from within your project directory.

Interface Builder

In your Storyboard file, go to your View Controller and add a view and set its contents. You can also create this view programmatically but here I will be using the storyboard.

Create 4 more views and use Auto Layout to stack them on top of one another.

Select all 5 views and go to the Identity Inspector (right panel in storyboard, 4th item in top bar).

Set the Class field value (under Custom Class) as 'CircularProgressView'.

Link all 5 views to your ViewController.swift file.

I have named them as follows:

@IBOutlet weak var pieChart1: CircleProgressView!
@IBOutlet weak var pieChart2: CircleProgressView!
@IBOutlet weak var pieChart3: CircleProgressView!
@IBOutlet weak var pieChart4: CircleProgressView!
@IBOutlet weak var pieChart5: CircleProgressView!

Call the function showRingChart() in viewDidLoad() to setup the views.

Here is the code for the functions:

// Function to convert degrees to radian
func degToRad(_ rotationDegrees: Double) -> CGFloat {
    let rotationAngle = CGFloat(rotationDegrees * .pi/180.0)
    return rotationAngle
}

// Function to Show Ring Chart
func showRingChart() {
    
    // Values for the graph, can be changed as per your need
    let val1 = self.val1
    let val2 = self.val2
    let val3 = self.val3
    let val4 = self.val4
    let val5 = self.val5
    let totalVal = (val1 + val2 + val3 + val4 + val5)
    var spacing = 0.05 * totalVal // Spacing is set to 5% (ie. 0.05). Change it according to your needs
    
    print("Spacing: ", spacing)
    let totalSpacing = 5 * spacing //Total spacing value to be added in the chart
    
    let total = totalVal + totalSpacing //Total corresponding to 100% on the chart
    
    if val1 == 0.0
        && val2 == 0.0
        && val3 == 0.0
        && val4 == 0.0
        && val5 == 0.0 {
        
        // NO DATA, HIDE ALL CHARTS
        pieChart1.isHidden = true
        pieChart2.isHidden = true
        pieChart3.isHidden = true
        pieChart4.isHidden = true
        pieChart5.isHidden = true
        
    } else {

        // DATA AVAILABLE

        // Calculate Percentage of each value in the ring chart (ie. progress)
        let valOnePerc = (val1 / total) 
        let valTwoPerc = (val2 / total)
        let valThreePerc = (val3 / total)
        let valFourPerc = (val4 / total)
        let valFivePerc = (val5 / total)

        let spacingPerc = spacing / total
        
        // Angle offsets (in degrees)
        let offset1 = (valOnePerc + spacingPerc) * 360
        let offset2 = (valOnePerc + valTwoPerc + (2 * spacingPerc)) * 360
        let offset3 = (valOnePerc + valTwoPerc + valThreePerc + (3 * spacingPerc)) * 360
        let offset4 = (valOnePerc + valTwoPerc + valThreePerc + valFourPerc + (4 * spacingPerc)) * 360

        print("--- PRINTING CHART VALUES HERE ---- ")
        print(total)
        print(valOnePerc)
        print(valTwoPerc)
        print(valThreePerc)
        print(valFourPerc)
        print(valFivePerc)
        print(offset1)
        print(offset2)
        print(offset3)
        print(offset4)
        print("------------------")
        
        // Setup ring chart sections
        pieChart1.trackFillColor = UIColor.tintColorOne
        pieChart1.progress = valOnePerc
        
        pieChart2.trackFillColor = UIColor.tintColorTwo
        pieChart2.progress = valTwoPerc
        pieChart2.transform = CGAffineTransform(rotationAngle: degToRad(offset1))

        pieChart3.trackFillColor = UIColor.tintColorThree
        pieChart3.progress = valThreePerc
        pieChart3.transform = CGAffineTransform(rotationAngle: degToRad(offset2))

        pieChart4.trackFillColor = UIColor.tintColorFour
        pieChart4.progress = valFourPerc
        pieChart4.transform = CGAffineTransform(rotationAngle: degToRad(offset3))

        pieChart5.trackFillColor = UIColor.tintColorFive
        pieChart5.progress = valFivePerc
        pieChart5.transform = CGAffineTransform(rotationAngle: degToRad(offset4))
        
        // Unhide all charts
        pieChart1.isHidden = false
        pieChart2.isHidden = false
        pieChart3.isHidden = false
        pieChart4.isHidden = false
        pieChart5.isHidden = false

    }
}

It should do it. Change the (val1, val2, ..., val5) values to change the progress of the rings.
