Is there a 'best' Google charts API for PHP?

Is there a "best" one? Does it offer as much flexibility as the Google API?

I am wary of using such wrapper, as I would need to take the time to evaluate each individually, so I am asking here if anyone has already done this.

Are there any benefits in a wrapper? The Google API seems clear enough.

And what guarantee is there that a wrapper will be updated as Google updates its API.

I would need something that can be used commercially. Should I even bother to look, or just stick with Goggle's API?

I woudl prefer to use POST, for larger datasets (and privacy).

Btw, please don't just google & post some links - I can do that myself. I'd like to he开发者_JAVA百科ar from people who have actually used a wrapper. Thanks.

This makes an interesting read; it's the sort of thing I want to hear more of.

"What I was especially missing was some logic that automagically prepares the data for the chart. Eg. I'd expect the library to create sensible scaled axis labels on its own."

There is a good list of wrappers here

There is never a "best". Only a better for your case.

Various chart API exist, see http://free-wiz.blogspot.com/2008/07/best-free-chart-apis.html
