This plugin implements the [[ikiwiki/directive/sparkline]] [[ikiwiki/directive]].
The directive allows for easily embedding sparklines into wiki pages.
# requirements
The plugin uses the [Sparkline PHP Graphing Library](http://sparkline.org/)
as it has better output than the native perl sparkline library. Therefore,
to use the plugin, you will need:
* The Sparkline PHP Graphing Library, installed in php's path so that
php can find it when `sparkline/Sparkline.php` is required.
* The GD PHP module used by the Sparkline library.
* A "php" program in the path, that can run standalone php programs.
* [[!cpan Digest::SHA1]]
On a Debian system, this can be accomplished by installing these packages:
`libsparkline-php` `php5-gd` `php5-cli` `libdigest-sha1-perl`
This plugin also uses the [[!cpan Digest::SHA1]] perl module.
