I am working with chart.js and am trying to add 2 plugins to the same chart, but when applied, both of the plugins disappear and there is no direct error in the console.
Does anyone know how to implement two plugins to the same graph?
Basically, the graph has to show data labels on a line chart and at the same time, draw yAxis lines, but only starting from the points on the line chart.
For some reason, the chart will not show either of them when both are applied.
Chart.helpers.merge(Chart.defaults.global.plugins.datalabels, {
color : '#ffffff'
})
// Chart.plugins.unregister(ChartDataLabels);
// var chart = new Chart(ctx, {
// / plugins: [ChartDataLabels],
// options: {
// // ...
// }
// })
var ctx = document.getElementById('myChart').getContext('2d');
var chart = new Chart(ctx, {
// The type of chart we want to create
type : 'line',
// The data for our dataset
data : {
labels : [ '', 'Tue', 'Wed', 'Thu', 'Fri', 'Sat', 'Sun', '' ],
datasets : [ {
label : 'My first dataset',
borderWidth : 3,
borderColor : 'rgb(255,0, 0)',
data : data1,
} ]
},
// Configuration options go here
options : {
elements : {
point : {
radius : 3
}
},
legend : {
display : false,
labels : {
fontColor : "white",
fontSize : 18
}
},
scales : {
yAxes : [ {
ticks : {
fontSize : 0,
beginAtZero : false,
max : 40,
},
gridLines : {
display : false,
drawBorder : false,
}
} ],
xAxes : [ {
ticks : {
fontColor : "white",
fontSize : 14,
beginAtZero : 0,
},
gridLines : {
display : false,
}
} ]
},
plugins : [ { // this is the magical bit :)
afterRender : function(c, options) {
let
meta = c.getDatasetMeta(0), max;
c.ctx.save();
c.ctx.strokeStyle = c.config.options.scales.xAxes[0].gridLines.color;
c.ctx.lineWidth = c.config.options.scales.xAxes[0].gridLines.lineWidth;
c.ctx.beginPath();
meta.data
.forEach(function(e) {
if (max == undefined
|| c.config.data.datasets[0].data[e._index] > max) {
max = c.config.data.datasets[0].data[e._index];
}
c.ctx.moveTo(e._model.x,
meta.dataset._scale.bottom);
c.ctx
.lineTo(e._model.x,
e._model.y);
});
c.ctx.textBaseline = 'top';
c.ctx.textAlign = 'right';
c.ctx.fillStyle = 'black';
c.ctx.fillText('Max value: ' + max,
c.width - 10, 10);
c.ctx.stroke();
c.ctx.restore();
}
} ],
tooltips : {
callbacks : {
label : function(tooltipItem) {
console.log(tooltipItem)
return tooltipItem.yLabel;
}
}
}
}
});
var data1 = [ 1, 9, 12, 3, 15, 8, 2, -5, 3, 4, 5, 7 ];
myChart(data1);
