    timezone: "America/New_York",
    container: "tv_chart_container",
    locale: "ru",
    datafeed: new Datafeeds.UDFCompatibleDatafeed("https://demo_feed.tradingview.com"),
    library_path: "charting_library/"
});

Below is a complete list of supported parameters. Use Widget methods if you wish to modify the parameters after the creation of the Charting Library.

library_path: "charting_library/",

width, height

The desired size of a widget. Please make sure that there is enough space for the widget to be displayed correctly.

},

Remark: There is a special case for font-based drawings. Use the "Font Icons" name for them. Those drawings cannot be enabled or disabled separately - the entire group will have to be either enabled or disabled.

custom_formatters

It is an object that contains the following fields:

timeFormatter
dateFormatter
tickMarkFormatter

You can use these formatters to adjust the display format of the date and time values. timeFormatter and dateFormatter are objects that include functions such as format and formatLocal:

function format(date)
function formatLocal(date)

These functions should return the text that specifies date or time. formatLocal should convert date and time to local timezone.

tickMarkFormatter is a function with the following signature:

function tickMarkFormatter(date: Date, tickMarkType: TickMarkType): string

/**
 * Represents the type of a tick mark on the time axis.
 */
type TickMarkType =
    /**
     * The start of the year (e.g. it's the first tick mark in a year).
     */
    | 'Year'
    /**
     * The start of the month (e.g. it's the first tick mark in a month).
     */
    | 'Month'
    /**
     * A day of the month.
     */
    | 'DayOfMonth'
    /**
     * A time without seconds.
     */
    | 'Time'
    /**
     * A time with seconds.
     */
    | 'TimeWithSeconds'
}

Example:

custom_formatters: {
    timeFormatter: {
        format: (date) => {
            const _format_str = '%h:%m';
            return _format_str
                .replace('%h', date.getUTCHours(), 2)
                .replace('%m', date.getUTCMinutes(), 2)
                .replace('%s', date.getUTCSeconds(), 2);
        }
    },
    dateFormatter: {
        format: (date) => {
            return date.getUTCFullYear() + '/' + (date.getUTCMonth() + 1) + '/' + date.getUTCDate();
        }
    },
    tickMarkFormatter: (date, tickMarkType) => {
        switch (tickMarkType) {
            case 'Year':
                return 'Y' + date.getUTCFullYear();

            case 'Month':
                return 'M' + (date.getUTCMonth() + 1);

            case 'DayOfMonth':
                return 'D' + date.getUTCDate();

            case 'Time':
                return 'T' + date.getUTCHours() + ':' + date.getUTCMinutes();

            case 'TimeWithSeconds':
                return 'S' + date.getUTCHours() + ':' + date.getUTCMinutes() + ':' + date.getUTCSeconds();
        }

        throw new Error('unhandled tick mark type ' + tickMarkType);
    }
}

Remark: tickMarkFormatter must display the UTC date, and not the date corresponding to your local timezone.
