Package description

What is chart.js?

Chart.js is a powerful, flexible JavaScript library for creating interactive charts in web applications. It supports a wide range of chart types and is highly customizable, allowing developers to create both simple and complex visualizations with ease.

What are chart.js's main functionalities?

Line Charts

Create line charts to display data trends over time or categories. The code sample initializes a line chart with a dataset and labels for the x-axis.

new Chart(document.getElementById('line-chart'), { type: 'line', data: { labels: ['January', 'February', 'March', 'April', 'May'], datasets: [{ label: 'Dataset 1', data: [0, 10, 5, 2, 20], fill: false }] }, options: { title: { display: true, text: 'Line Chart' } } });

Bar Charts

Create bar charts to compare different sets of data. The code sample sets up a bar chart with different colored bars and a y-axis that starts at zero.

new Chart(document.getElementById('bar-chart'), { type: 'bar', data: { labels: ['Red', 'Blue', 'Yellow', 'Green', 'Purple'], datasets: [{ label: 'Dataset 1', data: [12, 19, 3, 5, 2], backgroundColor: ['rgba(255, 99, 132, 0.2)'] }] }, options: { scales: { yAxes: [{ ticks: { beginAtZero: true } }] } } });

Pie Charts

Create pie charts to illustrate numerical proportions in a dataset. The code sample creates a pie chart with three segments, each representing a portion of the whole.

new Chart(document.getElementById('pie-chart'), { type: 'pie', data: { labels: ['Red', 'Blue', 'Yellow'], datasets: [{ data: [300, 50, 100], backgroundColor: ['#FF6384', '#36A2EB', '#FFCE56'] }] }, options: { title: { display: true, text: 'Pie Chart' } } });

Radar Charts

Create radar charts to compare multiple quantitative variables. The code sample demonstrates a radar chart that compares different activities of a person.

new Chart(document.getElementById('radar-chart'), { type: 'radar', data: { labels: ['Eating', 'Drinking', 'Sleeping', 'Designing', 'Coding', 'Cycling', 'Running'], datasets: [{ label: 'Person A', data: [65, 59, 90, 81, 56, 55, 40], fill: true }] }, options: { title: { display: true, text: 'Radar Chart' } } });
