I am trying to import a custom plugin into my chart.
Got this plugin from my previous question: Question
Its a plugin so that I can use Grace in my version of Chart.js.
The version of Chart.js I am using is V2.9.4.
I am using vue-chartjs in Nuxt!.
Couldn't really find an answer anywhere else.
Thanks in advance. :)
- I made a Component called 'BarChart' in my Components folder.
- I made a normal
.vuefile in my pages directory. In the<template>tag I added my<Barchart/>component. - In that same
.vuefile I added a script in the<script>tag. - The plugin code is included in the codes below, I didn't include it anywhere yet.
- Barchart.vue (Component)
<script>
import {Bar} from "vue-chartjs";
export default {
extends: Bar,
props: {
data: {
type: String,
default: () => {},
},
options: {
type: Object,
default: () => {},
},
},
computed: {
Chart() {
return['data', 'options'];
},
},
mounted() {
this.renderChart(this.data, this.options);
},
};
</script>
- .vue file (Include component)
<div class="chart">
<BarChart :data="barChartData" :options="barChartOptions" :height="200"/>
</div>
- .vue file (script tags)
<script>
import BarChart from "~/components/plugins/BarChart";
export default {
components: {
BarChart,
},
data() {
return {
barChartData: {
labels: ["Verzonden", "Ontvangen", "Geopend", "Kliks"],
datasets: [
{
data: [25, 20, 20, 18],
backgroundColor: [
'#7782FF',
'#403DD3',
'#FFB930',
'#00E437',
],
barThickness : 50,
},
],
},
barChartOptions: {
responsive: true,
legend: {
display: false,
},
scales: {
xAxes: [
{
gridLines: {
display: false,
},
ticks: {
fontColor: "black",
fontSize: 14,
},
},
],
yAxes: [
{
ticks: {
beginAtZero: true,
min: 0,
stepSize: 5,
fontColor: '#ABACB3',
},
gridLines: {
display: true,
borderDash: [4, 4],
color: '#EEEDFB',
drawBorder: false,
},
},
],
},
},
};
},
};
</script>
- Plugin code (where do I put this and how do I make it work?)
const plugin = {
id: "customScale",
beforeLayout: (chart, options, c) => {
let max = Number.MIN_VALUE;
let min = Number.MAX_VALUE
let grace = options.grace || 0
chart.data.datasets.forEach((dataset) => {
max = Math.max(max, Math.max(...dataset.data));
min = Math.min(min, Math.min(...dataset.data))
})
if (typeof grace === 'string' && grace.includes('%')) {
grace = Number(grace.replace('%', '')) / 100
chart.options.scales.yAxes[0].ticks.suggestedMax = max + (max * grace)
chart.options.scales.yAxes[0].ticks.suggestedMin = min - (min * grace)
} else if (typeof grace === 'number') {
chart.options.scales.yAxes[0].ticks.suggestedMax = max + grace
chart.options.scales.yAxes[0].ticks.suggestedMin = min - grace
}
}
}
