DEPRECATED: Chart.js Error Bars Plugin
Chart.js plugin for adding error bars to Line-, Barcharts or hierarchical Barcharts. This plugin also works with the Hierarchical Scale Plugin.
Try the demo on Codepen.
DEPRECATION Information
Please note that this project has been archived and is no longer being maintained. There is an active fork https://www.npmjs.com/package/chartjs-chart-error-bars and we will also contribute our future changes to it.
Install
npm install --save chart.js chartjs-plugin-error-bars
Usage
Datasets must define an errorBars
object that contains the error bar property key (same as in the used scale) and values plus
and minus
. Plus values are always positive, and minus vice versa.
Categorical scale usage:
data: {
labels: ['January', 'February', 'March', 'April', 'May', 'June', 'July'],
datasets: [{
...
errorBars: {
'February': {plus: 15, minus: -34},
'March': {plus: 5, minus: -24},
'May': {plus: 35, minus: -14},
'June': {plus: 45, minus: -4}
}, ...
/* or for graded error bars
errorBars: {
'February': [{plus: 15, minus: -34}, {plus: 10, minus: -26}],
'March': [{plus: 5, minus: -24}, {plus: 2, minus: -16}],
'May': [{plus: 35, minus: -14}, {plus: 7, minus: -7}],
'June': [{plus: 45, minus: -4}, {plus: 25, minus: -2}]
}, ...
*/
corresponding TypeScript interface
interface IErrorBars {
[label: string]: IErrorBar | IErrorBar[];
}
interface IErrorBar {
plus: number;
minus: number;
}
Hierarchical scale plugin usage:
data: {
labels: [
'A',
{
label: 'C1',
children: ['C1.1', 'C1.2', 'C1.3', 'C1.4']
}
],
datasets: [{
...
errorBars: {
'A': {plus: 25, minus: -10},
'C1.2': {plus: 14, minus: -15},
'C1': {plus: 34, minus: -5}
}, ...
}
