I've been looking all over chart.js
-related questions, but not two developers seem to be giving the same answer on how to display a chart using chart.js
+ JSON.
I am trying to display a chart using a JSON file - specifically a list of "amounts" with their relative labels ("January 2017",...).
The chart canva display just fine, no console log error, but no chart itself. What am I missing?
Thanks!
Here my chart.js code:-
var labels = [];
var data = [];
$.getJSON("https://jsonblob.com/api/jsonBlob/26078b70-6b6f-11e7-a38a-bf689f57642c"), function (data) {
$.each(data.customers.amounts, function(key, value){
var labels = json.map(function(item) {
labels.push(item.key);
});
var data = json.map(function(item) {
data.push(item.value);
});
});
}
var ctx = document.getElementById('myChart').getContext('2d');
var chart = new Chart(ctx, {
type: 'line',
data: {
datasets: [{
labels: labels,
backgroundColor: 'rgb(129, 198, 2228)',
borderColor: 'rgb(0, 150, 215)',
data: data
}]
},
options: {
responsive: 'true',
}
});
and here's my JSON file:-
{
"customers": [
{
"first_name": "John",
"last_name": "Doe",
"account": "123456",
"period": "13th July - 13th August",
"due_date": "14th September",
"amounts": [
["January 2017", 121.23],
["February 2017", 145.23],
["March 2017", 55.12],
["April 2017", 78.58],
["May 2017", 89.13],
["June 2017", 45.78],
["July 2017", 90.22]
]
}
]
}
Couple of Issues :
$.getJSON()
method is asynchronous, you should construct the chart inside it's callback function. var labels = data.customers[0].amounts.map(function(e) {
return e[0];
});
var data = data.customers[0].amounts.map(function(e) {
return e[1];
});
labels
array to your dataset, while it belogns to the data
object.Here is the revised version of your code :
$.getJSON("https://jsonblob.com/api/jsonBlob/26078b70-6b6f-11e7-a38a-bf689f57642c", function(data) {
var labels = data.customers[0].amounts.map(function(e) {
return e[0];
});
var data = data.customers[0].amounts.map(function(e) {
return e[1];
});
var ctx = document.getElementById('myChart').getContext('2d');
var chart = new Chart(ctx, {
type: 'line',
data: {
labels: labels,
datasets: [{
backgroundColor: 'rgb(129, 198, 2228)',
borderColor: 'rgb(0, 150, 215)',
data: data
}]
},
options: {
responsive: 'true',
}
});
});
