This plugin provides the sparkline directive, which allows for easily embedding sparklines into wiki pages. A sparkline is a small word-size graphic chart, that is designed to be displayed alongside text.

# requirements

The plugin uses the Sparkline PHP Graphing Library 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.
- Digest::SHA

On a Debian system, this can be accomplished by installing these packages: `libsparkline-php` `php5-gd` `php5-cli` `libdigest-sha1-perl`
