I am using Chart JS for the first time and I wanted to show multiple data points for the same label. Can I do this without creating multiple datasets each time. Also, I will know the number of datasets only on run time.
Use case: For each point on x-axis(label) plot multiple points on y-axis
Right now I am doing something like this
var ctx = $(element);
var myChart = new Chart(ctx, {
type: graphType,
data: {
labels: labels,
datasets: [
{
label: labelTeacher,
fill: false,
lineTension: 0.1,
backgroundColor: "rgba(100,149,237,0.5)",
borderColor: "rgba(100,149,237,1)",
borderCapStyle: 'butt',
borderDash: [],
borderDashOffset: 0.0,
borderJoinStyle: 'miter',
pointBorderColor: "rgba(58,95,205,1)",
pointBackgroundColor: "#fff",
pointBorderWidth: 1,
pointHoverRadius: 5,
pointHoverBackgroundColor: "rgba(100,149,237,1)",
pointHoverBorderColor: "rgba(220,220,220,1)",
pointHoverBorderWidth: 2,
pointRadius: 1,
pointHitRadius: 10,
data: [65, 59, 90, 81, 56, 55, 40]
},
{
label: labelVedantu,
fill: false,
lineTension: 0.1,
backgroundColor: "rgba(255,165,0,0.5)",
borderColor: "rgba(255,165,0,1)",
borderCapStyle: 'butt',
borderDash: [],
borderDashOffset: 0.0,
borderJoinStyle: 'miter',
pointBorderColor: "rgba(255,165,0,1)",
pointBackgroundColor: "rgba(255,255,255,1)",
pointBorderWidth: 1,
pointHoverRadius: 5,
pointHoverBackgroundColor: "rgba(255,165,0,1)",
pointHoverBorderColor: "rgba(250,228,196,1)",
pointHoverBorderWidth: 2,
pointRadius: 1,
pointHitRadius: 10,
data: [28, 48, 40, 19, 96, 27, 100]
}
]
},
Let us say I have multiple data arrays for the same label set, is there a way to do it without adding a new dataset each time
