Chartjs linechart with only one point - how to center

Question

I have a chartjs linechart diagram to show the sales of different products on a range of dates. The user can select a date range (for example from 2015-12-01 to 2015-12-10)

Answer 1

You can check the length of your labels (or data) arrays and add dummy non-renderable points to the left and right by using empty string labels and null value, like so

var chartData = {
  labels: ['', "A", ''],
  datasets: [
    {
      fillColor: "rgba(255, 52, 21, 0.2)",
      pointColor: "#da3e2f",
      strokeColor: "#da3e2f",
      data: [null, 20, null]
    },
    {
      fillColor: "rgba(52, 21, 255, 0.2)",
      strokeColor: "#1C57A8",
      pointColor: "#1C57A8",
      data: [null, 30, null]
    },
  ]
}
