The solid-chartjs
library is a SolidJS wrapper around the Chart.js
library, allowing you to easily create interactive charts in your SolidJS applications.
Installation:
pnpm add solid-chartjs chart.js
# or
yarn add solid-chartjs chart.js
# or
npm i solid-chartjs chart.js
Demo: solid-chartjs.vychs.com
Usage:
import { onMount } from 'solid-js'
import { Chart, Title, Tooltip, Legend, Colors } from 'chart.js'
import { Line } from 'solid-chartjs'
const MyChart = () => {
/**
* You must register optional elements before using the chart,
* otherwise you will have the most primitive UI
*/
onMount(() => {
Chart.register(Title, Tooltip, Legend, Colors)
})
const chartData = {
labels: ['January', 'February', 'March', 'April', 'May'],
datasets: [
{
label: 'Sales',
data: [50, 60, 70, 80, 90],
},
],
}
const chartOptions = {
responsive: true,
maintainAspectRatio: false,
}
return (
<div>
<Line data={chartData} options={chartOptions} width={500} height={500} />
</div>
)
}
If you don't want to import and register the controllers, elements, scales, and plugins you want to use, you can use the following solution:
Note
It is considered to better use the tree-shakable way, to decrease the bundle size.
import 'chart.js/auto'
import { DefaultChart } from 'solid-chartjs'
<DefaultChart type="line" data={data} options={options} />
Prop | Description | Type |
---|---|---|
width | The width of the chart canvas in pixels. | number | undefined |
height | The height of the chart canvas in pixels. | number | undefined |
fallback | A fallback element to display when chart fails. | JSX.Element |
type | The type of the chart. | keyof ChartTypeRegistry |
data | The chart data object. | ChartData | undefined |
options | The chart options object. | ChartOptions | undefined |
plugins | The chart plugins object. | Plugin[] | undefined |
Check out /dev
folder and run the SolidJs application to see how it works.
You can also use the DefaultChart
components:
Note
DefaultChart
is a wrapper around Chart
component, so you can use all the props from Chart
component.
DefaultChart
component does not have its registrable elements registered by default, so you need to register them yourself unless you use chart.js/auto
.
import { onMount } from 'solid-js'
import {
Chart,
LineController,
CategoryScale,
PointElement,
LineElement,
LinearScale,
} from 'chart.js'
import { DefaultChart } from 'solid-chartjs'
const MyChart = () => {
onMount(() => {
Chart.register(LineController, CategoryScale, PointElement, LineElement, LinearScale)
})
// ... your data and options objects
return <DefaultChart type="line" data={data} options={options} width={400} height={300} />
}
Usage of fallback
prop:
const fallback = () => {
return (
<div>
<p>Chart is not available</p>
</div>
)
}
<DefaultChart type="bar" data={chartData} options={chartOptions} fallback={fallback} />
