Consider the following code.
var chartData = {
labels: ["January", "February", "March", "April", "May", "June"],
datasets: [{
fillColor: "#79D1CF",
strokeColor: "#79D1CF",
data: [60, 80, 81, 56, 55, 40]
}]
};
var ctx = document.getElementById("myChart1").getContext("2d");
var myLine = new Chart(ctx, {
type: "line",
data: chartData,
showTooltips: false,
onAnimationComplete: function() {
var ctx = this.chart.ctx;
ctx.font = this.scale.font;
ctx.fillStyle = this.scale.textColor
ctx.textAlign = "center";
ctx.textBaseline = "bottom";
this.datasets.forEach(function(dataset) {
dataset.points.forEach(function(points) {
ctx.fillText(points.value, points.x, points.y - 10);
});
})
}
});<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/Chart.js/3.6.2/chart.min.js"></script>
<canvas id="myChart1" height="300" width="500"></canvas>Because I use the function in the onAnimationComplete in different graphs, I like to create a JavaScript file where I collect all the functions and use them. For example
var chart = new Chart(ctx, eval(config));
chart.options.animation.onComplete = function () {
window["AnimationComplete1"](chart);
}
function AnimationComplete1(chart) {
var ctx = chart.ctx;
ctx.textAlign = "center";
ctx.textBaseline = "bottom";
chart.data.datasets.forEach(function (dataset) {
dataset.points.forEach(function (points) {
ctx.fillText(points.value, points.x, points.y - 10);
});
})
}
In this code, the problem is that in the function I don't have access to the point from the dataset from chart.data.datasets. Also, I don't have access to the scale for font and textColor.
Is there a way to access those values from a common function?
The Chart.js animation onComplete callback function must be defined inside the chart options.
options: {
animation: {
onComplete: ctx => {
// do your stuff
}
}
}
Please take a look at your amended code below and see how it works.
var chartData = {
labels: ["January", "February", "March", "April", "May", "June"],
datasets: [{
fillColor: "#79D1CF",
strokeColor: "#79D1CF",
data: [60, 80, 81, 56, 55, 40]
}]
};
new Chart('myChart1', {
type: "line",
data: chartData,
options: {
animation: {
onComplete: ctx => {
console.log(ctx.chart.data.datasets);
console.log(ctx.chart.options.scales.x);
}
}
}
