I'm building a graph using ChartJS and the Alpha-Vantage API. And for the most part, it works as expected.
But this is only if every dataset is plotted as a line-graph (So my data is definitely there).
Thing is, I want my Volume data-set to be bars. For whatever reason, the bars are not showing up on the graph.
The correct scale appears on the right-hand side, but the bars are nowhere to be seen...
I have no errors in my console, and I've tried a few things i've found on StackOverflow but none have seemed to work for me so far - eg. setting the ticks to 0, increasing and decreasing the bar/category percentage. But i've had zero luck.
What am i missing? Have I missed some sort of configuration setting or?

Bar charts are created by setting type to bar (to flip the direction of the bars, set type to horizontalBar ). The colors of the bars are set by passing one color to backgroundColor (all bars will have the same color), or an array of colors.
Use multiple labels configuration to display 3 labels per data, one for the index , one for the label and one for the value . Move the mouse over the chart to display label ids.
Following are some simple steps to do so: Step 1: Create a React application using the following command. Step 2: After creating your project folder i.e. BARCHART_REACT, move to it using the following command. Step 3: After creating the ReactJS application, Install react-chartjs-2 and chart.
Is it possible to use chart. js for a desktop/mobile application using html that connects through an esp8266 access point or does it need a wifi connection? @marionboynton, CanvasJS is a standalone library that can work offline without any internet connection.
The Mixed Chart Types documentation doesn't explicitly state it, but it seems the base chart must be type bar and then datasets switched to line.
