This module will not be ported to Drupal 8 in it's current form. It only supports the Google Chart Tools: Image Charts (https://developers.google.com/chart/image/). Image charts was deprecated by Google on April 20, 2012 with April 20, 2015 as the shutdown date; details: https://developers.google.com/chart/terms

It needs a full re-write to support any other charting system, include the Google JS-based charts. I suggest you look at getting a D8 port of https://drupal.org/project/charts or something else from this list: https://groups.drupal.org/node/93064

Sure! Your post reminded me the project page didn't contain the API deprecation details, so I've just updated it.

Also check out: https://drupal.org/project/charts_graphs Many people/projects need a module to can display charts with Drupal. Hopefully someone can step forward to work on this.

Thanks! I too thought of suggesting to put up a disclaimer in the project page.

Also thanks for charts_graphs, will check it out.

I would like to reconsider this issue and give it some more thought in the context of a future chart release, which is why for now I'm adding the link to parent issue, and updating the status. This also because more and more I'm getting convinced that just moving from chart to charts (before the famous april 2015 deadline) is not the only alternative we should consider offering to existing chart users.
