I am using react chartjs 2
. I need to increase margin between legend and chart. Here I found many solutions that are not for react or nextjs. That's why I need to solve it with react environment. Please help me.
Here is my code-
import { Box, Typography } from "@mui/material";
import { Line } from 'react-chartjs-2';
import {
Chart as ChartJS,
CategoryScale,
LinearScale,
PointElement,
LineElement,
Title,
Tooltip,
Legend
} from 'chart.js';
ChartJS.register(
CategoryScale,
LinearScale,
PointElement,
LineElement,
Title,
Tooltip,
Legend
);
const options = {
responsive: true,
plugins: {
legend: {
labels: {
boxHeight: 2,
boxWidth: 50
},
},
}
};
const data = {
labels: ['January', 'February', 'March', 'April', 'May', 'June', 'July'],
datasets: [
{
id: 1,
label: 'iPhone',
data: [65, 59, 80, 81, 56, 55, 40],
}
]
};
const DownloadChart = () => {
return (
<Box>
<Typography variant="h5" component="h5">
Device Download
</Typography>
<Line
datasetIdKey='id'
data={data}
options={options}
/>
</Box>
);
};
export default DownloadChart;
I see that there are available beforeInit and afterInit function. But I am not knowing that How can I apply it. Please help me.
You can use a custom plugin:
ChartJS.register({
id: 'customSpacingLegend',
beforeInit(chart) {
// Get reference to the original fit function
const originalFit = chart.legend.fit;
// Override the fit function
chart.legend.fit = function fit() {
// Call original function and bind scope in order to use `this` correctly inside it
originalFit.bind(chart.legend)();
// Change the height as suggested in another answers
this.height += 15;
}
};
});
