Creating a graph with ReactJS and ChartJS

I am tying to create a graph using ChartJS and ReactJS. The issue that I am experiencing is that I cannot load my data array onto the graph.



There are no logged errors and this is how my chart looks currently:
enter image description here



I think that the mistake might be chartData object that I am using to pass the data:



  chartData:{
labels: this.timeDataArray,
datasets: this.priceDataArray,
backgroundColor:['rgba(255,99,132,0.6)']
}


I am using react-chartjs-2 as module for my charts and fetch for the http request.



Here is my full code:



export class Chart extends Component{
constructor(props){
super(props);
this.state = {
isLoading: false,
data: ,
chartData:{
labels: this.timeDataArray,
datasets: this.priceDataArray,
backgroundColor:['rgba(255,99,132,0.6)']
}
}
}

componentDidMount(){
this.fetchData();
}

fetchData(){
fetch("https://min-api.cryptocompare.com/data/histoday?fsym=BTC&tsym=USD&limit=600")
.then(response => response.json())
.then(data=>{
var fetchedData = data.Data;
var timeDataArray = ;
var priceDataArray = ;
console.log(timeDataArray)
console.log(priceDataArray)
for(var x = 0; x < fetchedData.length;x++){
var exampleTimeData = fetchedData[x].time
var examplePriceData = fetchedData[x].high
timeDataArray.push(exampleTimeData)
priceDataArray.push(examplePriceData)

}

})
.catch(error => console.log("parsing failed", error))
}

render(){
return(
<div className="chart">
<Line
data={this.state.chartData}
options={{
maintainAspectRatio:false
}}
/>
</div>
)
}
}


Question: Why is my data not being plotted since I am passing the label property with the time stamps and the actual data as the dataset ?

  • Are you having issues in general...like you cant get it to work even if you pass in some dummy data, or are you fine with that ?

  • @born2gamble if look at the screenshot, you'll see that I cannot pass data or the data I'm passing is not in the correct format.
