Chart.js - Multiple Line Charts - Only Show Last Chart - javascript

I am using chart.js to show multiple line charts on one page. However, only the last chart shows even though I have called them #canvas1 and #canvas2. Something must be conflicting somewhere and I've tried most things but not having any joy. Here are two charts, it only shows the last one:
Graph One
<script type="text/javascript">

Your help would be much appreciated, been bugging me for a while now!
Thanks in advance

Try using different names for the two ctx variables.
window.onload = function(){
var ctx = document.getElementById("canvas2").getContext("2d");
window.myLine = new Chart(ctx).Line(lineChartData, {
responsive: true
});
var ctx2 = document.getElementById("canvas1").getContext("2d");
window.myLine = new Chart(ctx2).Line(lineChartData2, {
responsive: true
});
}

Initially I had the exact same problem as the original question and Tried Arpan Das suggestion, but did not get right on the first try.
Anyone else having the same problem, might find it useful to have a look at this working example of multiple graphs on one page:
<div id="canvas-holder">
<canvas id="A" width="300" height="300"/><br>
</div>
<div id="canvas-holder">
<canvas id="B" width="300" height="300"/><br>
</div>
<script>
var pieDataA = [ { value: 50, color: "#F6BFBD" } ];
var pieDataB = [ { value: 50, color: "#00BFBD" } ];
window.onload = function(){
var ctx1 = document.getElementById("A").getContext("2d");
window.myPieA = new Chart(ctx1).Pie(pieDataA);
var ctx2 = document.getElementById("B").getContext("2d");
window.myPieB = new Chart(ctx2).Pie(pieDataB); };
</script>

The mistake in the initial code is that you call the function window.onload multiple times.
Unfortunately, it's not that simple. The first onload event handler will be replaced when the second onload event handler is executed. [and so one untill last onload.window]
That problem usually appears when you want to create the graphs separately and, for example, include with php in your page graphs (because in each php page you are calling window.onload)
Easy solution:
function start() {
func1();
func2();
}
window.onload = start;
Simon Willison proposed:
function addLoadEvent(func) {
var oldonload = window.onload;
if (typeof window.onload != 'function') {
window.onload = func;
} else {
window.onload = function() {
if (oldonload) {
oldonload();
}
func();
}
}
}
addLoadEvent(nameOfSomeFunctionToRunOnPageLoad);
addLoadEvent(function() {
/* more code to run on page load */
});

I was having the same issue and although it was a minor lack of attention from my part, it took me a while to figure it out: I was using the same data reference for all charts with small changes.
Here is the problem and solution:
chartData = {
labels: Array(dataLeft.length).fill(""), // No labels on X axis
datasets: [
{
label : "Lado Esquerdo",
backgroundColor : "rgba(50,192,50,0.4)",
borderColor : "rgba(75,192,75,1)",
pointBorderColor : "rgba(75,192,75,1)",
data : dataLeft,
},
{
label : "Lado Direito",
backgroundColor : "rgba(192,50,50,0.4)",
borderColor : "rgba(192,75,75,1)",
pointBorderColor : "rgba(192,75,75,1)",
data : dataRight,
}
]
};
I was using this chartData for all charts, but before constructing a new chart, I was changing the data attribute (chartData.datasets[0].data = some_specific_value_for_each_chart)
But since this is a reference, I was changing the data of all the previously constructed charts, setting their data to the same data of the last chart initialized!
I don't know if I took the best approach, but to solve this I returned the data dynamically when initializing the charts
createChartData = function(dataRight, dataLeft) {
return {
labels: Array(dataLeft.length).fill(""), // No labels on X axis
datasets: [
{
label : "Lado Esquerdo",
backgroundColor : "rgba(50,192,50,0.4)",
borderColor : "rgba(75,192,75,1)",
pointBorderColor : "rgba(75,192,75,1)",
data : dataLeft,
},
{
label : "Lado Direito",
backgroundColor : "rgba(192,50,50,0.4)",
borderColor : "rgba(192,75,75,1)",
pointBorderColor : "rgba(192,75,75,1)",
data : dataRight,
}
]
}
};
And then to init the chart:
var chart1 = new Chart(ctx1, {
type: 'line',
data: createChartData(graphData1, graphData2),
options: chartOptions
});

Using Different Colors In a Chart

My Code:
<div><canvas id="canvas_line" height="200" width="800"></canvas></div>
<div><canvas id="canvas_bar" height="200" width="800"></canvas></div>
<script>
var lineChartData = {
labels : ["14:00","15:00","16:00","17:00","18:00","19:00","20:00","22:00"],
datasets : [
{
label: "CPU IDLE",
fillColor : "rgba(220,220,220,0.2)",
strokeColor : "rgba(220,220,220,1)",
pointColor : "rgba(220,220,220,1)",
pointStrokeColor : "#fff",
pointHighlightFill : "#fff",
pointHighlightStroke : "rgba(220,220,220,1)",
data : [85,35,65,59,90,81,56,55,40,100]
}
]
}
var barChartData = {
labels : ["12:00","13:00","14:00","15:00","16:00","17:00","18:00","19:00","20:00","22:00"],
datasets : [
{
fillColor : "rgba(220,220,220,0.5)",
strokeColor : "rgba(220,220,220,1)",
data : [85,35,65,59,90,81,56,55,40,100]
}
]
}
var ctx_line = document.getElementById("canvas_line").getContext("2d");
window.myLine = new Chart(ctx_line).Line(lineChartData, {
responsive: true
});
var ctx_bar = document.getElementById("canvas_bar").getContext("2d");
window.myLine = new Chart(ctx_bar).Bar(barCharData, {
responsive: true
});
</script>
It looks like this, everything is grey.
But I'd like to change the lineChart's pointColor and barChart's fillcolor to red if its data is above 80, the data below 80 are still grey.
I want it like this, but I don't know how to use different colors in a canvas.

}
}
// Update the chart
barChart.update();
});
</script>

You have to loop to all the bars/points of your chart, check if the value is over 80 and set the color.
Here is an example for the bar chart:
var bars = barChart.datasets[0].bars;
for(var i = 0; i < bars.length; i++) {
if(bars[i].value > 80) {
bars[i].fillColor = "rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.2)";
bars[i].strokeColor = "rgba(220, 0, 0, 0.5)";
}
}
// Update the chart
barChart.update();
Check out this fiddle for a working demo.
To set the color on a line chart you just have to iterate over the points instead of the bars:
var points = lineChart.datasets[0].points;
And of course set the pointColor or whatever you want.

Chartjs Array.join

Hi I'm creating some Charts for my server monitoring. I'm getting the Data with Php and pass it over as an Array to the javasccript:
<script>
var randomScalingFactor = function(){ return Math.round(Math.random()*100)};
var obj = JSON.parse('<?php echo json_encode($names) ?>');
var datenbarchart = obj.join(",");
var obj1 = JSON.parse('<?php echo json_encode($nameserver) ?>');
var barChartData = {
labels : [ obj1[0], obj1[1], obj1[2], obj1[3], obj1[4], obj1[5], obj1[6]],
datasets : [
{
fillColor: "rgba(151,187,205,0.5)",
strokeColor: "rgba(151,187,205,0.8)",
highlightFill: "rgba(151,187,205,0.75)",
highlightStroke: "rgba(151,187,205,1)",
data : [datenbarchart]
}
]
}
window.onload = function(){
var ctx = document.getElementById("canvas").getContext("2d");
window.myBar = new Chart(ctx).Bar(barChartData, {
responsive : true
});
}
</script>
The problem part is, where I try to separate the first array with the join Method to get a String separated by ",":
var datenbarchart = obj.join(",");
When I pass this over to the Chartjs Data where normally the Data looks like that: data: [60,50,40,50] It doesn't show any Data in the Chart. Isn't it possible to do that with a string, because it takes the whole string for every bar?
According to http://www.chartjs.org/docs/
data field is an Array so your syntax should be:
var datenbarchart = obj;
...
var barChartData = {
labels : [ obj1[0], obj1[1], obj1[2], obj1[3], obj1[4], obj1[5], obj1[6]],
datasets : [
{
fillColor: "rgba(151,187,205,0.5)",
strokeColor: "rgba(151,187,205,0.8)",
highlightFill: "rgba(151,187,205,0.75)",
highlightStroke: "rgba(151,187,205,1)",
data : datenbarchart
}
]
}

Put chart.js chart inside JQuery tooltip?

I would like to display chart.js's bar chart inside a tooltip.
Is this possible?
$(function() {
$( document ).tooltip({
track: true,
content:function () {var temp = $(this).prop('title');
temp = theBigArray[temp] //THIS IS THE JSON DATA CONTAINER FOR EACH SENTENCE
var barChartData = {
labels : ["Future","Present","Past"],
datasets : [
{
fillColor : "rgba(151,187,205,0.5)",
strokeColor : "rgba(151,187,205,0.8)",
highlightFill : "rgba(151,187,205,0.75)",
highlightStroke : "rgba(151,187,205,1)",
data : [temp[2], temp[3], temp[4]]
}
]
}
var ctx = document.getElementById("canvas").getContext("2d");
var myTable = new Chart(ctx).Bar(barChartData, {
responsive : false
});
return '<canvas id="canvas"></canvas>';
}
});
When "canvas" is under , and displayed on html, it works fine. But, it fails to show inside the tooltip javascript when I return the content of the tooltip with div.
You need to create the canvas element before you call getElementById on it. Also, the canvas element needs to be sized for Chart.js to work properly.
Use this
$(function() {
$( document ).tooltip({
track: true,
open: function (event, ui) {
$('.ui-tooltip-content > div').append($("#canvas"))
},
content: function () {
var temp = $(this).prop('title');
var temp = theBigArray[temp] //THIS IS THE JSON DATA CONTAINER FOR EACH SENTENCE
var barChartData = {
labels: ["Future", "Present", "Past"],
datasets: [
{
fillColor: "rgba(151,187,205,0.5)",
strokeColor: "rgba(151,187,205,0.8)",
highlightFill: "rgba(151,187,205,0.75)",
highlightStroke: "rgba(151,187,205,1)",
data: [temp[2], temp[3], temp[4]]
}
]
}
$('body').append($("<canvas id='canvas' width='200' height='100'></canvas>"))
var ctx = document.getElementById("canvas").getContext("2d");
var myTable = new Chart(ctx).Bar(barChartData, {
responsive: false,
animation: false
});
return '<div></div>';
}
})
});
with CSS
<style>
body > #canvas {
position: fixed;
visibility: hidden;
}
</style>

On first time page loads, the output is:
After clicking button "Draw Chart", the output comes through AJAX is:
But when i hover my mouse over the image, it automatically converts into first image i.e. the first correct graph when window was loaded. Strange!!!
so before drawing your chart again, what you can do just destroy the earlier created chart with
myChart.destroy();
or
myChart.clear();
and then redraw your chart. Then hopefully it will work correct

Lightswitch HTML custom control show only once

I've a LS project with one Custom Control where I render a chart with chartjs. The first time I load the page everything is ok, but if I move to another page and then come back the custom control is not rendered anymore (the code is called but nothing appear). I have to press F5 everytime I want to see it!
How can I fix this?
UPDATE:
I've notice that if I set a global variable, when I come back to the screen the variable is not reinizialized .Also another page containing the jquery-week calendar has the same issue. When I navigate away from a screen and later come back I load another instance of the "screen" or only get the old one, with all the stuff already loaded?
here the code
/// <reference path="~/GeneratedArtifacts/viewModel.js" />
function updateGraphs(chart, query, inizio, fine) {
var last = 0;
for (var i = inizio; i <= fine; i.addDays(1)) {
query(i).execute().then(function (res) {
try {
if (chart.datasets[0].points.length > 25)
chart.removeData();
var date = new Date(inizio.valueOf()).addDays(last++);
var str = format_2digit(date.getDate()) + "/" + format_2digit(date.getMonth() + 1) + "/" + date.getFullYear();
chart.addData([res.results.length], last % 5 == 0 ? str : "");
}
catch (e) { alert(e); }
});
}
}
myapp.Home.created = function (screen) {

screen.GraficoInizio = new Date(year, month, 1);
screen.GraficoFine = new Date(year, month + 1, 0);
};
myapp.Home.GraficoFine_postRender = function (element, contentItem) {
contentItem.dataBind("screen.GraficoInizio", function (value) {
var month = contentItem.screen.GraficoInizio.getMonth();
var year = contentItem.screen.GraficoInizio.getFullYear();
contentItem.value = new Date(year, month + 1, 0);
});
};
myapp.Home.GraficoClienti_render = function (element, contentItem) {
// creo il grafico
$(element).append("<canvas id='chartClienti' width='500px' height='300px' />");

Lightswitch does not remove (it hides) html elements from page when you navigate to another page. -> That's how the "Back Button" Works, it shows/set visible the "old page".
When you navigate back to the page in page source you will be able to find more than one "chartClienti" element.
One possible solution is to remove the element if it already exists:
myapp.Home.GraficoClienti_render = function (element, contentItem) {
// creo il grafico
var existedChart = $('#chartClienti');
//element exists if it's length is more than 0
if (existedChart.length > 0) {
existedChart.remove();
}
$(element).append("<canvas id='chartClienti' width='500px' height='300px' />");
var ctx = $('#chartClienti').get(0).getContext("2d");
var chart = new Chart(ctx);
var data = {
labels: [],
datasets: [
{
label: [],
fillColor: "rgba(220,220,220,0.2)",
strokeColor: "rgba(220,220,220,1)",
pointColor: "rgba(220,220,220,1)",
pointStrokeColor: "#fff",
pointHighlightFill: "#fff",
pointHighlightStroke: "rgba(220,220,220,1)",
data: []
}
]
};
chart = chart.Line(data, { animationSteps: 15 });
contentItem.dataBind("screen.GraficoInizio", function (value) {
updateGraphs(chart, myapp.activeDataWorkspace.ApplicationData.AbbonamentiAttivi,contentItem.screen.GraficoInizio, contentItem.screen.GraficoFine);
});
contentItem.dataBind("screen.GraficoFine", function (value) {
updateGraphs(chart, myapp.activeDataWorkspace.ApplicationData.AbbonamentiAttivi, contentItem.screen.GraficoInizio, contentItem.screen.GraficoFine);
});
};
Better solution would be following:
A) getting the all elements with that id and updating the latest.
B) give unique id each time you render your control (autoincrement by one: chartClienti0, chartClienti1, ... chartClientiN)
var globalVariableForchartClienti;
myapp.Home.GraficoClienti_render = function (element, contentItem) {
// creo il grafico
var chartClientiElementId = 'chartClienti_' + Math.floor((Math.random() * 999999) + 1);
$(element).append("<canvas id='" + chartClientiElementId + "' width='500px' height='300px' />");
//You can use "globalVariableForchartClienti" to access custom element in any other function
globalVariableForchartClienti = chartClientiElementId;
var ctx = $('#chartClienti').get(0).getContext("2d");
var chart = new Chart(ctx);
var data = {
labels: [],
datasets: [
{
label: [],
fillColor: "rgba(220,220,220,0.2)",
strokeColor: "rgba(220,220,220,1)",
pointColor: "rgba(220,220,220,1)",
pointStrokeColor: "#fff",
pointHighlightFill: "#fff",
pointHighlightStroke: "rgba(220,220,220,1)",
data: []
}
]
};
chart = chart.Line(data, { animationSteps: 15 });
contentItem.dataBind("screen.GraficoInizio", function (value) {
updateGraphs(chart, myapp.activeDataWorkspace.ApplicationData.AbbonamentiAttivi,contentItem.screen.GraficoInizio, contentItem.screen.GraficoFine);
});
contentItem.dataBind("screen.GraficoFine", function (value) {
updateGraphs(chart, myapp.activeDataWorkspace.ApplicationData.AbbonamentiAttivi, contentItem.screen.GraficoInizio, contentItem.screen.GraficoFine);
});
};
