Chart.js

Installation of Chart.js : Download

Just like how we use javascript in our sites,attach them as in <head></head> tags using script src.





<script src="chart.js"></script>





Generating chart :

since this chart.js uses HTML5 we use <canvas> tag to load our charts in web pages with referencing respecttive id's





<canvas id="preferred_name" height="preferred height"

width="preferred width"></canvas>





Javascript to create a chart :

generally Chart.js gives many flavours such as LINE,BAR,RADAR,POLAR,PIE,DOUGH NUT chart types.

Essential part of the chart is Data that to in number formats and Labels and Data Range to prepare a chart.By using the below statement we could call the function with possible arguments through them.generally we pass DATA and OPTIONS as arguments to generate a graph in canvas area.





var ctx = document.getElementById("canvas_id_here").getContext("2d");

new Chart(ctx).Line(data,options);





the above code calls the function with specific arguments i.e DATA and OPTIONS.





data (argument of above function) :

data is generally declared as VAR in javascript and by further we could break it up with three different options such as LABELS as array ,DATASETS that contains some CSS property and RAW-DATA.

lets have a look at the LABEL which is declared as array i.e





label:[' India ',' south africa ',' Australia ',' USA ']





now about some CSS property for our graph look i.e they have been determined by DATASETS with that RAW-DATA is combined as array which is essentials to generate graph, i.e





datasets:

[{ fillColor:"rgba( your specified value for fill color in r,g,b,a format )", strokeColor:"rgba( your specified value for strokes colour in r,g,b,a format )", pointColor:"rgba( your specified color option in rgba format )", pointStrokeColor:" hexa decimal value for colour ", data:[ 45,42,15,14,17,62,14 ] } ]



Options(argument to function mentioned above):

there are so many options which defines our graph look add some css,Those Options are simple for readers to interpret so i don't want to explain those,just go through the options code.





Line.defaults = {

scaleOverlay : false,

scaleOverride : false,

scaleSteps : null,

scaleStepWidth : null,

scaleStartValue : null,

scaleLineColor : "rgba(0,0,0,.1)",
