I am using the package found here to use chartjs on my laravel project, I followed the instructions to install it and tried to load the example into a blade file. The issue is, nothing is displaying. Below I attached the example code, does anyone have experience using this package and could point me in the right direction?
The way I installed it, in this order was:
composer require fx3costa/laravelchartjs
added Fx3costa\LaravelChartJs\Providers\ChartjsServiceProvider::class to Providers
npm install chart.js --save
The example method.
private function createchart(){
$chartjs = app()->chartjs
->name('lineChartTest')
->type('line')
->size(['width' => 400, 'height' => 200])
->labels(['January', 'February', 'March', 'April', 'May', 'June', 'July'])
->datasets([
[
"label" => "My First dataset",
'backgroundColor' => "rgba(38, 185, 154, 0.31)",
'borderColor' => "rgba(38, 185, 154, 0.7)",
"pointBorderColor" => "rgba(38, 185, 154, 0.7)",
"pointBackgroundColor" => "rgba(38, 185, 154, 0.7)",
"pointHoverBackgroundColor" => "#fff",
"pointHoverBorderColor" => "rgba(220,220,220,1)",
'data' => [65, 59, 80, 81, 56, 55, 40],
],
[
"label" => "My Second dataset",
'backgroundColor' => "rgba(38, 185, 154, 0.31)",
'borderColor' => "rgba(38, 185, 154, 0.7)",
"pointBorderColor" => "rgba(38, 185, 154, 0.7)",
"pointBackgroundColor" => "rgba(38, 185, 154, 0.7)",
"pointHoverBackgroundColor" => "#fff",
"pointHoverBorderColor" => "rgba(220,220,220,1)",
'data' => [12, 33, 44, 44, 55, 23, 40],
]
])
->options([]);
return $chartjs;
blade file:
<div style="width:75%;">
{!! $chartjs->render() !!}
</div>
