Styling problems with Chart.Js

How can I add these styles to my graph? I'm having trouble finding it in the documentation for it, and the other forums aren't very helpful. I am using Flask for the backend, so that's why the data values look like that.
Labels on top of bars
Change font size on both axis
Set y scale as a fixed value (0,8)
<script>
var ctx = document.getElementById('myChart').getContext('2d');
var options = {
scales: {
yAxes: [{
ticks: {
fontSize: 40
}
}]
}
}
var myChart = new Chart(ctx, {
type: 'bar',
data: {
labels: ['Lithium Battery', 'Other Mfg', 'Delivery', 'Tailpipe', 'Fuel Cycle', 'Disposal', 'Total'],
datasets: [{
label: 'ICEV CAR (MTCO2e/Year)',
labels: [
"{{data['battery_icev_car']}}",
"{{data['other_mfg_icev_car']}}",
"{{data['delivery_icev_car']}}",
"{{data['tailpipe_icev_car']}}",
"{{data['fuel_cycle_icev_car']}}",
"{{data['disposal_icev_car']}}",
"{{data['total_icev_car']}}"
],
data: [ /* errors are normal, fixes when server ru
[0, {{data['y1_icev']}}],
[{{data['y1_icev']}}, {{data['y2_icev']}}],
[{{data['y2_icev']}}, {{data['y3_icev']}}],
[{{data['y3_icev']}}, {{data['y4_icev']}}],
[{{data['y4_icev']}}, {{data['y5_icev']}}],
[{{data['y5_icev']}}, {{data['y6_icev']}}],
[0, {{data['y6_icev']}}]
],
backgroundColor: [
'rgba(0,0,0,0.9)'
],
borderColor: [
'rgba(0,0,0,1)'
],
borderWidth: 1,
borderSkipped: false
}]
},
options: {
responsive: true,
plugins: {
legend: {
labels: {
// This doesn't work on axis
font: {
size: 20
}
}
}
},
y: {
beginAtZero: true
}
}
});
</script> </script>

Since your config is not working I assume you are using V3, in which case the solution is as followed:
For point one you need to use an external plugin, you can write your own or use the datalabels plugin
For your second problem you need to style it as a font object as told in the documentation like so:
options: {
scales: {
y:{
ticks:{
font:{
size: 50
}
}
}
}
}
For your last part you can set the stepSize to 0.8

chart.js plotting timeseries

Attempting to pass through data from django to a webpage to render a responsive chart. The data are being passed correctly to js, but I am driving myself crazy trying to understand why charts.js is throwing an error.
I have hardcoded some data for example:
function setLineChart() {
var ctx = document.getElementById("myLineChart").getContext('2d');
var dat_1 = {
label: 'things',
borderColor: 'blue',
data: [
{t: new Date("04/01/2020"), y: 310},
{t: new Date("04/02/2020"), y: 315},
{t: new Date("04/03/2020"), y: 320},
]
};
var myLineChart = new Chart(ctx, {
type: 'line',
data: {
datasets: [dat_1]
},
options: {
scales: {
xAxes: [{
type: 'time',
time: {
unit: 'day'
},
}],
yAxes: [{
ticks: {
beginAtZero: true
}
}]
}
}
})
}
<canvas id="myLineChart" width="600" height="600"></canvas>
And this returns a Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'skip' of undefined error that I can't debug. setLineChart() gets called as part of an ajax response on a form update. When I comment out the options section, it does render a chart, but misses off the last data point, and has undefined as the x-axis marker.
Any help would be appreciated.

Chart.js internally uses Moment.js for the functionality of the time axis. Therefore you should use the bundled version of Chart.js that includes Moment.js in a single file.
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/Chart.js/2.9.3/Chart.bundle.min.js"></script>
This will solve your problem as the following amended code snippet illustrates.
var ctx = document.getElementById("myLineChart").getContext('2d');
var dat_1 = {
label: 'things',
borderColor: 'blue',
data: [
{ t: new Date("04/01/2020"), y: 310 },
{ t: new Date("04/02/2020"), y: 315 },
{ t: new Date("04/03/2020"), y: 320 },
]
};
var myLineChart = new Chart(ctx, {
type: 'line',
data: {
datasets: [dat_1]
},
options: {
scales: {
xAxes: [{
type: 'time',
time: {
unit: 'day'
},
}],
yAxes: [{
ticks: {
beginAtZero: true
}
}]
}
}
});
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/Chart.js/2.9.3/Chart.bundle.min.js"></script>
<canvas id="myLineChart" height="90"></canvas>

Highcharts maxWidth or maxHeight of map

I'm trying to set the maxWidth of my world map with highcharts but it doesn't change the size.
I've tried these:
responsive: {
rules: [{
condition: {
maxWidth: 500
},
...
As suggested here and demo.
chart: {
maxWidth: 1024
},
As suggested here, demo.
I'm using the code from this example.
Update 10 Feb 2020:
Following the suggestion below, I use this code which can be found here:
import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDom from 'react-dom';
import * as Highcharts from 'highcharts/highmaps';
import HighchartsReact from 'highcharts-react-official';
import mapDataWorld from '#highcharts/map-collection/custom/world.geo.json';
var data: [string, number][] = [
// data can be found in the link
];
const options: Highcharts.Options = {
chart: {
height: 400
},
series: [{
type: 'map',
mapData: mapDataWorld,
data: data,
}],
responsive: {
rules: [{
chartOptions: {
chart: {
height: 800
},
legend: {
margin: 0
},
title: {
margin: 0
},
},
condition: {
maxWidth: 1024
}
}]
}
}
const App = (props: HighchartsReact.Props) => <div style={{
maxWidth: '1024px',
}}>
<HighchartsReact
options={options}
highcharts = { Highcharts }
constructorType={'mapChart'}
{...props}
/>
</div>
ReactDom.render(<App />, document.getElementById('root'));
Then open the result in a new window.
You'll see the map is pushed below the top of the screen in mobile view in Google Chrome. This still happens with margin: 0.

responsive: {
rules: [{
condition: {
maxWidth: 500
},
...
Above option is a condition for which the next defined chart option will be applied, in case of shared demo is:
chartOptions: {
xAxis: {
labels: {
formatter: function () {
return this.value.charAt(0);
}
}
},
yAxis: {
labels: {
align: 'left',
x: 0,
y: -2
},
title: {
text: ''
}
}
}
Highcharts doesn't offer a chart.maxWidth feature, only the chart.width feature as you shared from the API to set the fixed value for chart width.
You can set the max-width for the div where Highcharts map is rendering, but remember about importing CSS.
Demo: https://stackblitz.com/edit/react-ts-5upg3v?file=index.tsx
Or without CSS as inline-style - demo: https://stackblitz.com/edit/react-ts-uy5xkd?file=index.tsx

Chart.js x-axis with date DD-MM-YYYY - React

I am trying to display a graph using the library Chart.js.
My data are in the format:
data: [["15-11-2019", 25], ["16-11-2019", 35], ["17-11-2019", 40], ["18-11-2019", 20], ["19-11-2019", 15]]
I am not able to transform the x-Axis in a time-axis.
I tried to pass in the options parameter the time type but it does not seem to work.
The graph renders, but the x-axis does not exists, only the y-axis exists.
import React, {Component, useState, useEffect, useCallback} from 'react';
import Plot from 'react-plotly.js';
import { Chart } from 'react-charts'
function MyChart() {
const data = React.useMemo(
() => [
{
label: 'Series 1',
data: [["15-11-2019", 25], ["16-11-2019", 35], ["17-11-2019",40], ["18-11-2019", 20], ["19-11-2019", 15]]
}],
[]
)
const axes = React.useMemo(
() => [
{ primary: true, type: 'linear', position: 'bottom' },
{ type: 'linear', position: 'left' },
],
[]
)
const options = React.useMemo(
() => [
{
scales: {
xAxes: [{
type: 'time',
time: {
unit: 'day'
}
}]
}
}
],
[]
)
return (
// A react-chart hyper-responsively and continuusly fills the available
// space of its parent element automatically
<div
style={{
width: '600px',
height: '500px'
}}
>
<Chart data={data} axes={axes} options={options}/>
</div>
)
}
export default MyChart;

Update: See this specific line about format in the documentation
The x-axis data points may additionally be specified via the t or x attribute when using the time scale.
See more here https://www.chartjs.org/docs/latest/axes/cartesian/time.html
Your datafield must be a dictionary/object of x, y values:
data: [{x: "2019-01-03", y: 15}, {x: "2019-01-04", y: 18}, ...]
When creating your chart, set type in options.scales:
...,
options: {
scales: {
xAxes: [{
type: 'time',
}]
},
...

Highmaps chart is empty in Angular 5

I have a component where I have to show high maps. No errors but the maps is always empty
My chart options object :
let chartData = [{ code3: "ABW", z: 105 }, { code3: "AFG", z: 35530 }];
this.chartConfigObject = new MapChart(<any>{
chart: {
borderWidth: 1,
map: 'custom/world'
},
title: {
text: 'World population 2013 by country'
},
subtitle: {
text: 'Demo of Highcharts map with bubbles'
},
legend: {
enabled: false
},
mapNavigation: {
enabled: true,
buttonOptions: {
verticalAlign: 'bottom'
}
},
series: [{
name: 'Countries',
color: '#E0E0E0',
enableMouseTracking: false
}, {
type: 'mapbubble',
name: 'Population 2016',
joinBy: ['iso-a3', 'code3'],
data: chartData,
map: mapData,
minSize: 4,
maxSize: '12%',
tooltip: {
pointFormat: '{point.properties.hc-a2}: {point.z} thousands'
}
}]
});
When I console the created MapChart object i am getting the series as null always.
What am i missing and why the maps series is always null?
I am using angular-highcharts component as explained here :
https://github.com/cebor/angular-highcharts
reproduced in stackblitz: https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-highcharts-stock-nbvnuw?file=app%2Fapp.module.ts

You are not providing the map data to your chart , so it doesn't know which map to show. Try showing the map data like mapData: Highcharts.maps['custom/world'] under Series.
If you cannot access the maps in your Highcharts reference , try importing all the maps (JS files) from the HighMaps library into your project and reference them in your typescript component file like this:
const Highcharts = {maps: {}};
require('../../../assets/maps')(Highcharts); //your custom project path
and use mapData: Highcharts['maps']['custom/world'] or whatever is the map you wanted to use like 'countries/us/us-all'
Below is working map code using angular-highcharts to plot the map and points on it:
getMap(data) {
return new MapChart({
chart: {
events: {
load: function (point) {
//do something here on page load
}
},
spacingBottom: 20
backgroundColor: '#FFF',
style: {fontFamily: 'inherit'}
},
title: {
text: ''
},
mapNavigation: {
enabled: true
},
tooltip: {
headerFormat: '',
formatter: function () {
var toolTipTxt = '<b>' + this.point.options.name + '</b>';
return toolTipTxt;
}
},
plotOptions: {
series: {
color: '#00A778',
marker: {
radius: 6,
symbol: 'circle',
lineColor: '#00A778',
lineWidth: 1,
states: {
select: {
fillColor: '#00A778',
lineWidth: 1,
lineColor: '#00A778'
}
}
},
point: {
events: {
click: function () {
this.select(null, true);
}
}
}
}
},
series: [
{
//mapData: Highcharts['maps']['custom/world']
mapData: Highcharts.maps['custom/world'],
name: 'Basemap',
borderColor: '#A0A0A0',
nullColor: 'rgba(200, 200, 200, 0.3)',
showInLegend: false,
data: []
},
{
// Specify points using lat/lon
type: 'mappoint',
name: 'MySites',
data: data
}
]
});
}
Also you need proj4js library to plot points on the map, in case if that's your requirement as well.
Hope this helps !

Might, it can be useful.
Here is the solution for angular-highcharts:
1) Download the map from collection:
https://code.highcharts.com/mapdata/
2) Create a variable that equals to the content of this file and export it:
instead of
Highcharts.maps["custom/world"] = { ... content of the file ... }
use
const worldMap = { ... content of the file ... }
export default worldMap;
2) Import this map to your component (for world-map.ts):
import worldMap from './world-map';
3) use
chart: {
...
map: worldMap,
...
},
And, of course, don't forget to add a couple of lines to your module:
import { ChartModule, HIGHCHARTS_MODULES } from 'angular-highcharts';
import * as highmaps from 'highcharts/modules/map.src';
#NgModule({
...
providers: [
{ provide: HIGHCHARTS_MODULES, useFactory: () => [highmaps] }
],
...
})
