Technical Guide to Building a Real-Time Data Visualization Dashboard with Echarts and Java Backend
This guide demonstrates how to create a dynamic, real‑time data visualization dashboard using Echarts for the frontend and a Java‑based backend, covering requirement analysis, architecture design, environment setup, code structure, and deployment instructions.
1. Effect Diagram Display
1.1 Dynamic Real‑Time Data Update
1.2 Right‑Click Theme Switching
2. Requirement Specification
2.1 Screen Resolution for Deployment
This case uses a 16:9 aspect ratio with full‑screen (F11) display.
2.2 Deployment Method
Based on a portable executable program that runs on Windows, Linux, macOS and other operating systems; simply copy the program to the server without any additional environment dependencies.
Viewing options: run directly on the server or open the interface remotely with a browser such as Chrome or 360 Browser.
3. Overall Architecture Design
Frontend built with the open‑source Echarts library, developed in WebStorm.
Backend implemented with Java Web, developed in IntelliJ IDEA.
Data exchange format: JSON.
Data source: currently JSON files; can add MyBatis to support PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle, SQL Server, SQLite, or add POI for Excel, or customize HTTP API interfaces.
Data update method: HTTP GET polling; real‑time push via backend monitoring can also be used.
