Blazor dotnet wrapper library for ChartJs
The following versions of ChartJs are compatible with published releases of pax.BlazorChartJs
| Release | ChartJs | Tests |
|---|---|---|
| <= 0.5.0 | 3.9.1 | 3.9.1 |
| >= 0.5.0 | 4.x | 4.4.3 |
This library is using JavaScript isolation. JS isolation provides the following benefits:
- Imported JS no longer pollutes the global namespace.
- Consumers of a library and components aren't required to import the related JS.
- dotnet 6/7 for versions < 0.8
- dotnet 8 for versions >= 0.8
dotnet 8
dotnet add package pax.BlazorChartJs
dotnet 6/7
dotnet add package pax.BlazorChartJs --version 0.6.3
Program.cs:
builder.Services.AddChartJs(options =>
{
// default
options.ChartJsLocation = "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/chart.js";
options.ChartJsPluginDatalabelsLocation = "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/chartjs-plugin-datalabels@2";

}- To update the chart with the current ChartJsConfig call
ChartJsConfig.ReinitializeChart() - To update the chart with smooth animations there are several helper functions available, e.g.:
ChartJsConfig.SetLabels(...)ChartJsConfig.AddData(...)ChartJsConfig.AddDatasetSmooth(...)ChartJsConfig.SetData(...)
- use
ChartJsConfig.UpdateChartOptions()to update the chart options, only (e.g. StepSize)
Several chart events are available, by default only the Init event is fired. The others can be activated in the ChartJsConfig.Options Sample
- click
- hover
- leave
- progress
- complete
- resize
- chartjs-plugin-datalabels
- ArbitraryLines (YouTube)
- Custom Plugins Sample
Several chart functions are available in the ChartComponent, e.g.:
ChartComponent.ResizeChart(...)ChartComponent.GetChartImage(...)ChartComponent.ToggleDataVisibility(...)
We really like people helping us with the project. Nevertheless, take your time to read our contributing guidelines here.
v0.8.3
- Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.Web v8.0.2
- Added ChartJsConfig.UpdateDatasetsSmooth updates the ChartJs dataset(s), instead of replacing.
- Added BlazorLegendBase that can be used for a ChartJs Html Legend - [Sample][https://ipax77.github.io/pax.BlazorChartJs/htmllegendchart]
- Added ChartComponent.GetLegendItems()
- Added ChartComponent.IsDatasetVisible(int datasetIndex)
- Added ChartComponent.SetDatasetPointsActive(int datasetIndex)
- BarDataset.BarPercentage changed from int? to double?
- Renamed Layout to ChartJsLayout (CA1724)
IndexableOptionnow supports Collection Expressions e.g.
BorderColor = ["rgba(255, 99, 132, 1)", "rgba(54, 162, 235, 1)"],
BorderWidth = [1, 2]
- ChartJs v4.4.2 Tests
- Blazor App sample
v0.8.2
- ChartJs v4.4.1 tests
- Catching (more) dispose exeptions when switching from SSR to CSR (rendermode auto - AggregateException, JSDisconnectedException)
v0.8.1
- dotnet 8 Breaking Change
- Added missing pie/doughnut dataset options (Cutout, Radius, Animation)
- The
IndexableOptionnow supports implicit operators, allowing a more concise syntax for initialization.
New Syntax:
BorderColor = new List<string>()
{
"rgba(255, 99, 132, 1)",
"rgba(54, 162, 235, 1)"
},
BorderWidth = 1Old Syntax (still possible):
BorderColor = new IndexableOption<string>(new List<string>()
{
"rgba(255, 99, 132, 1)",
"rgba(54, 162, 235, 1)"
}),
BorderWidth = new IndexableOption<double>(1)v0.6.3
- Reverted Microsoft.TypeScript.MSBuild to v5.2.2 Microsoft.TypeScript.MSBuild v5.3.2 not working for Blazor projects (only working for wasm)
v0.6.2
- Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.Web upgrade to v6.0.25
- Added missing pie/doughnut dataset options (Cutout, Radius, Animation)
- The
IndexableOptionnow supports implicit operators, allowing a more concise syntax for initialization.
New Syntax:
BorderColor = new List<string>()
{
"rgba(255, 99, 132, 1)",
"rgba(54, 162, 235, 1)"
},
BorderWidth = 1Old Syntax (still possible):
BorderColor = new IndexableOption<string>(new List<string>()
{
"rgba(255, 99, 132, 1)",
"rgba(54, 162, 235, 1)"
}),
BorderWidth = new IndexableOption<double>(1)v0.6.1
- ChartJsLabelClickEvent and ChartJsLabelHoverEvent with 'nearest' DatasetLabel and DatasetIndex
- Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.Web upgrade to v6.0.21
v0.6.0
- Fix typo for AngleLines in LinearRadialAxis Breaking Change
v0.5.2
- Datalabels per dataset contributed by pjvinson
- ChartJs v4.4.0 tests
v0.5.1
- Marked ChartJsGrid border options as obsolete for v4.x - use ChartJsAxisBorder instead.
- TimeSeriesAxis Min, Max, SuggestedMin and SuggestedMax are of type
StringOrDoubleValue, now.- Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.Web upgrade to v6.0.16
- ChartJs v4.3.0 tests
- ChartJs v4.3.1 tests
- ChartJs v4.3.3 tests
v0.5.0
- Breaking Changes
- Update to ChartJs v4.x
- Removed ChartJs javascript files - defaults to cdn links, now. Use
options.ChartJsLocation = "mychart.js"to use a custom/local ChartJs version.- Removed chartjs-plugin-labels (you can still register it as custom plugin)
- Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.Web upgrade to v6.0.13
- Added ScaleAxis X1 and Y1 (override ChartJsOptionsScales for other names)
