In an Angular/Ionic project, I am totally bamboozled by the following error.

LINES OF CODE MENTIONED IN THE ERROR:

REPRODUCE:

Sorry that I could not give a plnkr demo since the ng2-charts starting template simply does not work, 404 errors in the console. To reproduce, simply create a new Angular Ionic project, install ng2-charts and chart.js and use the following code:

PACKAGES:

(I know ng2-charts version is quite old but this is a live project) "@angular/core": "^14.0.0", "@ionic/angular": "^6.1.9", "chart.js": "^2.9.4", "ng2-charts": "^2.4.2"

CONDITIONS:

The error only occurs in Firefox, and breaks the whole app. It works fine in Chrome and even Edge.
The error goes away if I use display:false on scaleLabel and ticks options.
The error appears again if I use [legends]="true", even if ticks and scaleLabel are disabled.

HTML:


<div id="container">
  <div>
    <canvas
      baseChart
      width="300"
      height="300"
      [datasets]="previewChartData"
      [options]="previewChartOptions"
      [legend]="false"
      [chartType]="'line'"
    ></canvas>
  </div>
</div>

TS:


  public previewChartData = [
    {
      data: [
        {
          title: 'Title',
          x: 10,
          y: 20
        }
      ]
    }
  ];
  public previewChartOptions = {
    scales: {
      xAxes: [
        {
          type: 'linear',
          scaleLabel: {
            display: true,
            labelString: 'asd'
          },
          ticks: {
            display: true
          }
        }
      ],
      yAxes: [
        {
          type: 'linear',
          scaleLabel: {
            display: true,
            labelString: 'qwe'
          },
          ticks: {
            display: true
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  };

WHAT I TRIED:

Updating ng2-charts and chart.js (only minor versions).
Moving the charts out of ngIf.
Using different ViewChild options such as static true/false, or removing it all together.
Deleting node_modules and re-installing.
Trying the same options on different charts in my project, same error occurred.
Using different width/height values, removing them, moving them into parent div etc.
Playing with responsive and maintainAspectRatio options.
Playing with chart.js codes where the error occurs.

What am I missing?

CodePudding user response：

This is a bug in Firefox itself.

There was a bug report about this in chart.js that let to a bug report in ionic which let to a bug report in Firefox itself.

So you will need to wait until Firefox makes a fix for this or not use ionic on the page where you render your chart
