I get some data from back-end to show. When I inspect element with React Developer Tools, I can see that data is there but not shown in production. ChartJS version is 3.8, not react-chartjs
I was having the same problem in development, too, but solved it by setting a unique key with key={Math.random()}
. In development build, it works just fine. Problem occurs in production. I deploy my app on Firebase.
I wait for data before rendering:
{isAnyFetching ? "Loading..." : <BarChart01 data={chartData} width={595} height={248} key={Math.random()} />}
I tried giving an array of zeroes until data is loaded to be sure chartData changed to trigger re-render by changing the state of the chart component. I also tried giving an extraKey prop and change it with useEffect to re-render again.
The whole chart component is:
function BarChart01({
data,
width,
height
}) {
const canvas = useRef(null);
const legend = useRef(null);
useEffect(() => {
const ctx = canvas.current;
// eslint-disable-next-line no-unused-vars
const chart = new Chart(ctx, {

return () => chart.destroy();

return (
<>
<div className="px-5 py-3">
<ul ref={legend} className="flex flex-wrap"></ul>
</div>
<div className="grow">
<canvas ref={canvas} width={width} height={height}></canvas>
</div>
</>
);
}
According to the code, it seems like
button.onclick = () => {
c.setDatasetVisibility(item.datasetIndex,!c.isDatasetVisible(item.datasetIndex));
c.update();
};
part in forEach loop is responsible of this update operation when I click on a label. So it somehow doesn't call update function in production as it should as useEffect listens to data
prop.
