I'm currently doing the dashboard in our project and can't progress because of this error. Call to undefined method App\Charts\SampleChart::labels(). I suspect that I missed some installation and configurations but I've done it several times now.
SampleChart.php
<?php
declare(strict_types = 1);
namespace App\Charts;
use Chartisan\PHP\Chartisan;
use ConsoleTVs\Charts\BaseChart;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class SampleChart extends BaseChart
{
/**
* Handles the HTTP request for the given chart.
* It must always return an instance of Chartisan
* and never a string or an array.
*/
public function handler(Request $request): Chartisan
{
return Chartisan::build()
->labels(['First', 'Second', 'Third'])
->dataset('Sample', [1, 2, 3])
->dataset('Sample 2', [3, 2, 1]);
}
}
dashboardcontroller
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use App\Charts\SampleChart;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Models\ratings;
class DashboardController extends Controller
{
public function dashboard() {
$rating = ratings::all();
$chart = new SampleChart;
$chart->labels(['One', 'Two', 'Three']);
$chart->dataset('My Dataset 1', 'line', [1,2,4]);
return view('user/admin/dashboard', compact('rating'));
}
}
charts.php
<?php
declare(strict_types=1);
return [
/*

'global_route_prefix' => 'api/chart',

'global_middlewares' => ['web'],

'global_route_name_prefix' => 'charts',

It looks like you are trying to call ->labels()
on an instance of SampleChart
based on the principle of multi-inheritance in php. The problem with that here is that ->labels()
is a method of Chartisan
class not SampleChart
or BaseChart
which it extends, hence the error you get (basically just saying hey, I cannot find labels()
).
See this answer for an explanation of multi-level inheritance in PHP. More info: https://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.inheritance.php
I'm curious what your use case for doing this in your controller is though. If it is for rendering, the docs you provided has this: https://charts.erik.cat/guide/render_charts.html
