Axis title plugin for Chartist.js

This plugin allows the creation and placement of axis titles. The plugin will throw an error if it is applied to a chart that contains no axes, such as a Pie chart.

In order to use it, you will need to include the excellent charting library Chartist.js in your page.

Available options and their defaults

var defaultOptions = {
  // The title to be displayed on the axis. If at least one axis title is not supplied then an error is thrown.
  axisTitle: '',

  // One or more class names to be added to the axis title. Multiple class names should be separated by a space.
  axisClass: 'ct-axis-title',

  // How much to offset the title by.
  // Please note, x and y offset values for axisY are flipped due to the rotation of the axisY title by 90 degrees.
  // Therefore changing the x value moves up/down the chart, while changing y moves left/right.
  axisOffset: {x:0, y:0},

  // Defines the anchoring of the title text. Possible values are 'start', 'end' and 'middle'.
  textAnchor: 'middle',

  // Whether to flip the direction of the text. Note - This can only be used on axis Y.
  flipText : false

};
