title: Mongodb, PHP and Javascript - Graphs, Charts, Data Display
body: <p>I am wondering if there is a simple way to create charts/graphs within Mongodb, php and javascript.  I want to be able to display graphs on my website of the data in my mongodb using PHP and/or javascript.  </p>
  
  <p>For example: lets say i had a mongodb with a collection called "sales" and i want to display the average sales in a graph group by month.  </p>
  
  <p>I am assuming i would have to use some sort of map-reduce to group the data then somehow  display it in a graph on my page using php and/or javascript.  </p>
  
  <p>I don't have any idea how to do this because i am new to mongodb.  Can someone please point me in the right directions?  Also i would love if there was some sort of plug-in, framework, library or api to accomplish this (time saver).  If not, i don't mind learning how to code all of this if someone can just point me in the right direction (books, websites, videos, resources, etc.).</p>
  
  <p>Thank you.</p>
