VictoryGroup

`VictoryGroup` is a wrapper component that renders a given set of children with some shared props. `VictoryGroup` reconciles the domain and layout for all its children, and coordinates animations and shared events. `VictoryGroup` may also be used to supply common data and styles to all its children. This is especially useful when adding markers to a line, or adding voronoi tooltips to data. `VictoryGroup` may also be used to apply an offset to a group of children, as with grouped bar charts, or may be used to stack several components on the same level, e.g., stacked area charts with data markers.

`VictoryGroup` works with: VictoryArea, VictoryBar, VictoryBoxPlot, VictoryCandlestick, VictoryErrorBar, VictoryLine, VictoryScatter, VictoryHistogram, VictoryStack, and VictoryVoronoi.

`VictoryGroup` should not be used with VictoryAxis children. Use VictoryChart instead.

##
animate

`type: boolean || object`

`VictoryGroup` uses the standard `animate` prop. Read about it here

See the Animations Guide for more detail on animations and transitions

note: `VictoryGroup` controls the `animate` prop of its children when set

      animate={{
        duration: 2000,
        onLoad: { duration: 1000 }
      }}

##
categories

`type: array[string] || { x: array[string], y: array[string] }`

`VictoryGroup` uses the standard `categories` prop. Read about it here

note: When this prop is set, `VictoryGroup` controls the `categories` prop of its children.

    categories={["dogs", "cats", "mice"]}

##
children

`type: element || array[element]`

`VictoryGroup` works with any combination of the following children: VictoryArea, VictoryBar, VictoryCandlestick, VictoryErrorBar, VictoryLine, VictoryScatter, VictoryHistogram, VictoryStack, and VictoryVoronoi. Children supplied to `VictoryGroup` will be cloned and rendered with new props so that all children share common props such as `domain` and `scale`.

##
color

`type: string`

The `color` prop is an optional prop that defines a single color to be applied to the children of `VictoryGroup`. The `color` prop will override colors specified via `colorScale`.

##
colorScale

`type: array[string]`

The `colorScale` prop is an optional prop that defines a color scale to be applied to the children of `VictoryGroup`. This prop should be given as an array of CSS colors, or as a string corresponding to one of the built in color scales: "grayscale", "qualitative", "heatmap", "warm", "cool", "red", "green", "blue". `VictoryGroup` will assign colors to its children by index, unless they are explicitly specified in styles. Colors will repeat when there are more children than colors in the provided `colorScale`.

default (provided by default theme): See grayscale theme for more detail

##
containerComponent

`type: element`

`VictoryGroup` uses the standard `containerComponent` prop. Read about it in detail here

    containerComponent={<VictoryVoronoiContainer/>}

##
data

`type: array[object]`

`VictoryGroup` uses the standard `data` prop. Read about it here

See the Data Accessors Guide for more detail on formatting and processing data.

When `data` is provided for `VictoryGroup` it will be passed to every child in the group. Use this as a convenience in cases where all components should have identical data, for example, adding data points to a line, or adding voronoi tooltips to data. Omit this prop when child components should not share data. By default, Victory components expect data as an array of objects with `x` and `y` props. Use the x and y data accessor props to define a custom data format. The `data` prop must be given as an array.

##
domain

`type: array[low, high] || { x: [low, high], y: [low, high] }`

`VictoryGroup` uses the standard `domain` prop. Read about it in detail here

note: `VictoryGroup` controls the `domain` prop of its children.

##
domainPadding

`type: number || array[left, right] || { x: [left, right], y: [bottom, top] }`

##
eventKey

    eventKey = "x";

##
events

`type: array[object]`

`VictoryGroup` uses the standard `events` prop. Read about it in more detail here

`type: boolean`

The `horizontal` prop determines whether the children supplied to `VictoryGroup` will be laid out vertically or horizontally. Read about the horizontal prop in detail

##
labels

`type: array || function`

The `labels` prop defines labels that will appear above each group of data. This prop should be given as an array of values or as a function. When given as a function, `labels` will be called with a single argument: an object of all the props provided to the label component. If given as an array, the number of elements in the array should be equal to the length of the data array. Group labels will appear above the center series of the group, and will override the `labels` prop of child components. Omit this prop, and set `labels` props on children for individual labels.

    labels={["spring", "summer", "fall", "winter"]}`, `labels={({ datum }) => datum.title}

##
labelComponent

`type: element`

The `labelComponent` prop takes a component instance which will be used to render labels for each group. The new element created from the passed `labelComponent` will be supplied with the following props: `x`, `y`, `index`, `datum`, `verticalAnchor`, `textAnchor`, `angle`, `style`, `text`, and `events`. Any of these props may be overridden by passing in props to the supplied component, or modified or ignored within the custom component itself. If `labelComponent` is omitted, a new VictoryLabel will be created with the props described above.

default: `<VictoryLabel/>`

    labelComponent={<VictoryLabel dy={20}/>}
