Basic usage

{% load googlecharts %}
{# container #}
<div id="out"></div>
{% googlecharts %}
	{# named data and options can be reused #}
	{% data values "out_data" %}
		{% col "string" "Name" %}"{{ val }}"{% endcol %}
		{% col "number" "Value" %}{{ val }}{% endcol %}
	{% enddata %}
	{# you can also use global javascript variables here, #}
	{# and call functions #}
	{% options "out_options" %}
		kind: "PieChart",
		options: {
			width: 300,
			height: 240
		}
	{% endoptions %}
	{# chart is assembled from container, data and options #}
	{% graph "out" "out_data" "out_options" %}
{% endgooglecharts %}

Given the context:

{'values': [['foo', 32], ['bar', 64], ['baz', 96]]}
