Smaller scale for volume dataset in Chart JS

I'm graphing some stocks data and I wanted to put the volume in a smaller gray bar dataset at the bottom, like in Yahoo Finance.
What I want:
The small grey dataset is at the bottom.
What I get:
Three different Y scales and the size of the volume dataset is the same a the other.
My code:
When I create the chart:
new Chart(context, {
type: 'line',
data: {
labels: timestamps.map(n =>
(new Date(n * 1000)).toLocaleString()
),
datasets: [
dataset,
vdataset
]
},
options: {
maintainAspectRatio: false,
scales: {
xAxis: {
// type: 'time'
ticks: {
//autoSkip: true,
maxTicksLimit: 10
}
},
yAxes: [{
id: 'volume',
display: false
}],
y: {
beginAtZero: false
},
},
animation: {
duration: 0
},
plugins: {
autocolors: false,
annotation: {
annotations
}
},
tooltips: {
mode: 'nearest'
},
hover: {
intersect: false
}
}
});
The volume dataset:
{
type: 'bar',
label: `Volume`,
data: ...,
backgroundColor: 'transparent',
borderColor: 'grey',
fill: 'origin',
pointRadius: 0,
borderWidth: 2,
yAxisID: 'volume'
}

you need to give every dataset a yAxisID and then you should name your axis with that id like this:
Data:
var data = {
labels: labels,
datasets: [{
label: 'My First Dataset',
data: generateTestSeries(),
fill: false,
borderColor: 'rgb(75, 192, 192)',
tension: 0.1,
yAxisID: "something",
},
{
label: 'My Second Dataset',
data: generateTestSeries(),
fill: false,
borderColor: 'rgb(182, 50, 192)',
tension: 0.1,
yAxisID: "volume",
},
]
};
Scales:
scales: {
volume: {
axis: "y",
min: -80,
max: 60,
position: 'right',
},
something: {
axis: "y",
min: -20,
max: 70,
position: 'left',
}
}
Also you shouldn't have the list yAxes, that was how axes were defined in chartjs 2.x
Here is a fiddle to see this in use: JSFiddle
edit: If you want an invisible axis just set display to false as seen in the now updated Fiddle.

How to set percentage value by default on each bars in horizontal bar chart js

I have used horizontal bar chart from chart.js where i need percentage values to be shown next to each bar at right side? here is the bar sample image.
click here to view sample image of bar chart
Also these are the options i have tried :
xAxes: [
{
ticks: {
min: 0,
max: 100
},
grid: {
offset: false
}
},
],
yAxes: [
{
gridLines: {
display: false,
},
display: "right",
barPercentage: 0.8,
minBarLength: 2,
},
],
Is there any option which can turn the percentage values on at he right side of the horizontal bar chart?

You can make use of the datalabels plugin
Example:
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/chart.js#3.3.0/dist/chart.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/chartjs-plugin-datalabels#2.0.0-rc"></script>
<canvas id="myChart" width="850" height="520"></canvas>
<script>
var ctx = document.getElementById('myChart');
Chart.register(ChartDataLabels);
Chart.defaults.set('plugins.datalabels', {
color: '#FE777B'
});
var myChart = new Chart(ctx, {
type: 'bar',
plugins: [ChartDataLabels],
data: {
labels: ["Red", "Blue", "Yellow", "Green", "Purple", "Orange"],
datasets: [{
data: [12, 19, 3, 5, 2, 3],
label: 'Advisor Closed MTD',
backgroundColor: 'rgb(192,111,94)',
barThickness: 25,
datalabels: {
color: '#FFCE56'
}
}],
},
options: {
indexAxis: 'y',
responsive: false,
plugins: {
datalabels: {
formatter: (val, context) => (`${val}%`),
anchor: 'end',
align: 'end',
labels: {
value: {
color: 'blue'
}
}
}
}
}
});

How can I able to put/edit custom tooltip in my line chart? I just want to get the exact tooltips in the second picture but I don't have any idea how to fix it? Another thing is my $nDateI only want to show four dates like 8,15,22,29 But when I tried to create a new array label with value of this [" ", " "]; my chart crashed.

You can use custom callback function to render with your own choice html tags and colors, Follow the official documentation link for further guidance.
http://www.chartjs.org/docs/latest/configuration/tooltip.html#external-custom-tooltips
options: {
tooltips: {
enabled: false,
custom: function(tooltipModel) {}
}
}

Chart.js v2 - combined stacked bar chart and 2 unstacked lines

Can Chart.js v2.x generate a combined stacked bar chart with 2 unstacked lines utilizing one y-axis? If so, how?
Below fiddle has 2 y-axis. The descending line, would render better if the right y-axis had a maximum value of 6000 as does the left axis.
jsfiddle example.
Below is the code for reference.
// set default no fill beneath the line
Chart.defaults.global.elements.line.fill = false;
// stacked bar with 2 unstacked lines - nope
var barChartData = {
labels: ['2016', '2017', '2018', '2019'],
datasets: [{
type: 'bar',
label: 'a',
yAxisID: "y-axis-0",
backgroundColor: "rgba(217,83,79,0.75)",
data: [1000, 2000, 4000, 5000]
}, {
type: 'bar',
label: 'b',
yAxisID: "y-axis-0",
backgroundColor: "rgba(92,184,92,0.75)",
data: [500, 600, 700, 800]
}, {
type: 'line',
label: 'c',
yAxisID: "y-axis-0",
backgroundColor: "rgba(51,51,51,0.5)",
data: [1500, 2600, 4700, 5800]
}, {
type: 'line',
label: 'd',
yAxisID: "y-axis-1",
backgroundColor: "rgba(151,187,205,0.5)",
data: [5000, 3000, 1000, 0]
}]
};
var ctx = document.getElementById("chart").getContext("2d");
// allocate and initialize a chart
var ch = new Chart(ctx, {
type: 'bar',
data: barChartData,
options: {
title: {
display: true,
text: "Chart.js Bar Chart - Stacked"
},
tooltips: {
mode: 'label'
},
responsive: true,
scales: {
xAxes: [{
stacked: true
}],
yAxes: [{
stacked: true,
position: "left",
id: "y-axis-0",
}, {
stacked: false,
position: "right",
id: "y-axis-1",
}]
}
}
});

Turns out, I just needed a modification or two so that the 2 y-axis use the same scale. See this jsfiddle. Now the chart renders better. The key, in my case, is adding a ticks node and these two properties to both yAxes objects:
ticks: {
beginAtZero: true,
suggestedMax: 5800
}
Naturally, the suggestedMax value would not be hard coded. Further, since the 2 scales are now the same, I hid the right scale with this property setting display: false.
As the fiddle shows, we now have 2 unstacked lines on a stacked bar chart nicely rendered.

Use this as the data for the graph:
var barData = {
labels: ['test1','test2'],
datasets: [
{
label: 'stack1',
backgroundColor: 'yellow',
borderColor: 'white',
borderWidth: 1,
stack: '1',
data: [5,4,3,2,1]
},
{
label: 'stack2',
backgroundColor: 'blue',
borderColor: 'white',
borderWidth: 1,
stack: '2',
data: [1,2,3,4,5]
}
]
};
This is the component to render the data:
<Bar data={barData} options={{scales: { xAxes: [{stacked:true}} }], yAxes:[{stacked:true}}] } }}}} />
