I am trying to hide the legend of my chart created with Chart.js.
According to the official documentation (.html), to hide the legend, the display property of the options.display object must be set to false.
I have tried to do it in the following way:
const options = {
legend: {
display: false,
}
};
But it doesn't work, my legend is still there. I even tried this other way, but unfortunately, without success.
const options = {
legend: {
display: false,
labels: {
display: false
}
}
}
};
This is my full code.
import React, { useEffect, useState } from 'react';
import { Line } from "react-chartjs-2";
import numeral from 'numeral';
const options = {
legend: {
display: false,
},
elements: {
point: {
radius: 1,
},
},
maintainAspectRatio: false,
tooltips: {
mode: "index",
intersect: false,
callbacks: {
label: function (tooltipItem, data) {
return numeral(tooltipItem.value).format("+0,000");
},
},
},
scales: {
xAxes: [
{
type: "time",
time: {
format: "DD/MM/YY",
tooltipFormat: "ll",
},
},
],
yAxes: [
{
gridLines: {
display: false,
},
ticks: {
callback: function(value, index, values) {
return numeral(value).format("0a");
},
},
},
],
},
};
const buildChartData = (data, casesType = "cases") => {
let chartData = [];
let lastDataPoint;
for(let date in data.cases) {
if (lastDataPoint) {
let newDataPoint = {
x: date,
y: data[casesType][date] - lastDataPoint
}
chartData.push(newDataPoint);
}
lastDataPoint = data[casesType][date];
}
return chartData;
};
function LineGraph({ casesType }) {
const [data, setData] = useState({});
useEffect(() => {
const fetchData = async() => {
await fetch(";)
.then ((response) => {
return response.json();
})
.then((data) => {
let chartData = buildChartData(data, casesType);
setData(chartData);
});
};
fetchData();
}, [casesType]);
return (
<div>
{data?.length > 0 && (
<Line
data={{
datasets: [
{
backgroundColor: "rgba(204, 16, 52, 0.5)",
borderColor: "#CC1034",
data: data
},
],
}}
options={options}
/>
)}
</div>
);
}
export default LineGraph;
Could someone help me? Thank you in advance!
PD: Maybe is useful to try to find a solution, but I get 'undefined' in the text of my legend and when I try to change the text like this, the text legend still appearing as 'Undefindex'.
const options = {
legend: {
display: true,
text: 'Hello!'
}
};

Reset to default 13in the newest versions this code works fine
const options = {
plugins: {
legend: {
display: false,
},
},
};
return <Doughnut data={data} options={options} />;As described in the documentation you linked the namespace where the legend is configured is: options.plugins.legend, if you put it there it will work:
var options = {
type: 'line',
data: {
labels: ["Red", "Blue", "Yellow", "Green", "Purple", "Orange"],
datasets: [{
label: '# of Votes',
data: [12, 19, 3, 5, 2, 3],
borderColor: 'pink'
}
]
},
options: {
plugins: {
legend: {
display: false
}
}
}
}
var ctx = document.getElementById('chartJSContainer').getContext('2d');
new Chart(ctx, options);<body>
<canvas id="chartJSContainer" width="600" height="400"></canvas>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/Chart.js/3.5.0/chart.js"></script>
</body>On another note, a big part of your options object is wrong, its in V2 syntax while you are using v3, please take a look at the migration guide
Reason why you get undefined as text in your legend is, is because you dont supply any label argument in your dataset.
Import your options value inside the charts component like so:
const options = {
legend: {
display: false
}
};
<Line data={data} options={options} />
