This adapter allows the use of Moment.js with Chart.js. Moment.js is a very heavy library and thus not recommended for client-side development. However, it was previously the only library supported by Chart.js and so continues to be supported. You may prefer chartjs-adapter-date-fns for a minimal bundle size or chartjs-adapter-luxon for larger bundle size with additional functionality included such as i18n and time zone support.
Requires Chart.js 3.0.0-beta.13 or later and Moment.js 2.0.0 or later. To use Chart.js v2.x, utilize v0.1.2 of the adapter.
Note: once loaded, this adapter overrides the default date-adapter provided in Chart.js (as a side-effect).
npm install moment chartjs-adapter-moment --save
import { Chart } from 'chart.js';
import 'chartjs-adapter-moment';By default, https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/chartjs-adapter-moment returns the latest (minified) version, however it's highly recommended to always specify a version in order to avoid breaking changes. This can be achieved by appending @{version} to the URL:
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/chart.js@2.9.3"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/moment@2.27.0"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/chartjs-adapter-moment@0.1.1"></script>Read more about jsDelivr versioning on their website.
Read the Chart.js documention for possible date/time related options. For example, the time scale time.* options can be overridden using the Moment formats.
