How to fix labels in chart.js - vue.js

Question

I am using chart.js for the first time for my project and when I passed my labels into the chart.js component, instead of taking strings like "sunday" and "monday" as labels, it takes "s" , "u", "n" ,"d" etc. How to fix this issue:
Code for the bar chart:
<template>
<canvas :id="`myChart${id}`"></canvas>
</template>
<script>
import Chart from 'chart.js/auto';
export default {
name: 'AnalysisBarChart',
props: ['id', 'labels'],
mounted() {
const ctx = document.getElementById('myChart' + this.id).getContext('2d');
const myChart = new Chart(ctx, {
type: 'bar',
data: {
labels: this.labels,
datasets: [
{
label: '# of Votes',
data: [12, 19, 3, 5, 2, 3],
backgroundColor: [
'rgba(255, 99, 132, 0.2)',
'rgba(54, 162, 235, 0.2)',
'rgba(255, 206, 86, 0.2)',
'rgba(75, 192, 192, 0.2)',
'rgba(153, 102, 255, 0.2)',
'rgba(255, 159, 64, 0.2)',
],
borderColor: [
'rgba(255, 99, 132, 1)',
'rgba(54, 162, 235, 1)',
'rgba(255, 206, 86, 1)',
'rgba(75, 192, 192, 1)',
'rgba(153, 102, 255, 1)',
'rgba(255, 159, 64, 1)',
],
borderWidth: this.id,
},
],
},
options: {
scales: {
y: {
beginAtZero: true,
},
},
},
});
myChart;
},
};
</script>
<style></style>
And I pass these labels:
labels: ['sunday', 'monday'],
How to fix this issue?

Answer 1

This behaviour only appears when you provide your labels array as a string instead of an array. So your labels array is not an array as you say it is but instead it is a string that looks like an array.
So you will need to convert that strong back to an array and then it will work as expected
