chartjs-adapter-date-fns2 v0.0.3
chartjs-adapter-date-fns
Overview
This adapter allows the use of date-fns with Chart.js.
Requires Chart.js 2.8.0 or later and date-fns 2.0.0-alpha.27 or later.
Note: once loaded, this adapter overrides the default date-adapter provided in Chart.js (as a side-effect).
Installation
npm
npm install date-fns@next chartjs-adapter-date-fns2 --save
import Chart from 'chart.js';
import 'chartjs-adapter-date-fns';
Configuration
Locale support via scale options
date-fns requires a date-fns locale object to be tagged on to each format()
call, which requires the locale to be explicitly set via the adapters.date
option: Chart.js documentation on adapters.date
For example:
// import date-fns locale:
import {de} from 'date-fns/locale';
// scale options:
{
adapters: {
date: {
locale: de
}
}
}
Further, read the Chart.js documentation for other possible date/time related options. For example, the time scale time.*
options can be overridden using the date-fns tokens.
