Based on the Tapestry5HowToCreateASimpleGraphComponent this is how you can create a component that can be passed a JFreeChart object to allow you to create any kind of chart

To use add this to your page:

<t:chart width="200" height="150" chart="lineChart"/>

add this to your page class:

public JFreeChart getLineChart() {
		XYSeries series = new XYSeries("Average Size");
		series.add(20.0, 10.0);
		series.add(40.0, 20.0);
		series.add(70.0, 50.0);
		XYDataset xyDataset = new XYSeriesCollection(series);
		final JFreeChart chart =  ChartFactory.createXYLineChart
        ("Sample XY Chart",  // Title
                "Height",           // X-Axis label
                "Weight",           // Y-Axis label
                xyDataset,          // Dataset
                PlotOrientation.HORIZONTAL,
                true,                // Show legend
                true, 				 // Tooltips
                true				 // Urls
               );

        return chart;
}

add this to your pom.xml under "dependencies":

        <dependency>
                <groupId>jfree</groupId>
                <artifactId>jfreechart</artifactId>
                <version>1.0.5</version>
        </dependency>
