I'm currently working on a real-time data visualization project using React.js and Chart.js version 2. I've successfully implemented a line chart to display real-time data, but I'm facing an issue with x-axis scrolling. I need to enable x-axis scrolling to handle a large amount of data.
Here's a simplified version of my current code:
import { Line } from "react-chartjs-2";
const LineChartData = {
datasets: data.map((item, index) => {
// let index = VariableData.findIndex(i => i.variable === item.variable)
//let chartData = VariableData[index]
return (
{
label: `${item.variable} ${item.displayUnit ? item.unit || "" : ""}`,
borderColor: `rgba(${item.color[0]}, ${item.color[1]}, ${item.color[2]}, ${item.color[3]})`,
backgroundColor: `rgba(${item.color[0]}, ${item.color[1]}, ${item.color[2]}, 0.5)`,
data: VariableData[index],
lineTension: item.curveLine ? 1 : 0,
fill: false,
steppedLine: item.stepped,
pointRadius: 0,
borderWidth: 1,
}
)
})
};
const LineChartOptions = {
scales: {
xAxes: [
{
trick: {
beginAtZero: true,
},
type: "realtime",
realtime: {
duration: durationCalc(),
refresh: 20000,
delay: 2000,
onRefresh: onRefresh,
},
},
],
yAxes: [
{
ticks: {
min: parseFloat(min),
max: parseFloat(max),
},
type: "linear",
display: !List.includes(format),
position: "left",
id: "y-axis-1",
scaleLabel: {
display: false,
labelString: "label",
},
},
],
},
tooltips: {
mode: "nearest",
intersect: false,
},
hover: {
mode: "nearest",
intersect: false,
},
maintainAspectRatio: false,
};
return (
<div className="widget_containers">
<Line data={LineChartData} options={LineChartOptions} />
</div>
);
I would appreciate any guidance or code snippets on how to implement x-axis scrolling effectively in Chart.js version 2 within a React.js application. Thank you!
