I have a chart that I want to include in my website using Chart.js. In the Y-axis, it gives me real numbers instead of integers. How can I change the number to integers?
Here's a picture of what I have now:
And this is the code:
var lineChartData = {
labels : ["2013/04/01","2013/03/31", "2013/03/30", "2013/03/29", "2013/03/28","2013/03/27", "2013/03/26"],
datasets : [
{
fillColor : "rgba(151,187,205,0.5)",
strokeColor : "rgba(151,187,205,1)",
pointColor : "rgba(151,187,205,1)",
pointStrokeColor : "#fff",
data : ["0", "2","1", "0", "1","0","1"]
}
]
}
var myLine = new Chart(document.getElementById("canvas").getContext("2d")).Bar(lineChartData);
Try this, where max is the highest value of your data.
var steps = 3;
new Chart(ctx).Bar(plotData, {
scaleOverride: true,
scaleSteps: steps,
scaleStepWidth: Math.ceil(max / steps),
scaleStartValue: 0
});
I handled it this way in new version:
new Chart(ctx, {
type: 'bar',
data: chartData,
options: {
scales: {
yAxes: [{
ticks: {
beginAtZero: true,
callback: function(value) {if (value % 1 === 0) {return value;}}
}
}]
}
}
});
I wasn't able to get the existing answers to work for me when using the new version 2 of Chart.js, so here's what I found to solve this problem in V2:
new Chart(ctx, {type: 'bar', data: barChartData,
options:{
scales: {
yAxes: [{
ticks: {
stepSize: 1
}
}]
}
}
});
Check the Chart.js documentation, in the Global configuration section:
// Boolean - Whether the scale should stick to integers, not floats even if drawing space is there
scaleIntegersOnly: true,
If you like to start in a different number than zero, you have to take that into account:
var step = 5;
var max = 90
var start = 40;
new Chart(income).Bar(barData, {
scaleOverride: true,
scaleSteps: Math.ceil((max-start)/step),
scaleStepWidth: step,
scaleStartValue: start
});
