I'm creating a pie chart in a react project with chartjs. But I'm not able to show any values on the different segments. I've tried different plugins but all of them aren't supported anymore.
I'm open to any ideas. That's how I'm rendering the chart at the moment:
<Pie
data={chartData}
options={{
responsive: true,
plugins: {
legend: {
labels: {
color: "white",
font : {
size: 16
},
}
}
},
}}
/>
You can use the beta of the datalabels plugin by installing it like this:
YARN:
yarn add chartjs-plugin-datalabels@next
NPM:
npm i chartjs-plugin-datalabels@next
Live example with chart.js v3:
Chart.register(ChartDataLabels);
var options = {
type: 'pie',
data: {
labels: ['orange', 'blue', 'gray'],
datasets: [{
label: '# of Votes',
data: [12, 19, 3],
borderWidth: 1,
backgroundColor: ['orange', 'blue', 'gray']
}]
},
options: {
plugins: {
datalabels: {
backgroundColor: function(context) {
return context.dataset.backgroundColor;
},
borderColor: 'white',
borderRadius: 25,
borderWidth: 3,
color: 'white',
font: {
weight: 'bold'
},
padding: 6,
}
}
}
}
var ctx = document.getElementById('chartJSContainer').getContext('2d');
new Chart(ctx, options);
