TypeError: (intermediate value)[type] is not a function
I am trying to display a simple chart following the guide here: http://jtblin.github.io/angular-chart.js/
I am using sails.js, angular, bootstrap and angular-chart.js
When I load the app, I get a blank image where a chart should be. I see this error in chrome dev tools:
TypeError: (intermediate value)[type] is not a function
at createChart (angular-chart.js:175)
at Object.fn (angular-chart.js:118)
at Scope.$get.Scope.$digest (angular.js:14308)

at doBootstrap (angular.js:1453)

at angularInit (angular.js:1367)

Please forgive me but I don't know why that error is popping.
I have tried endless amounts of variations of the code below and feel this version is the closest I have gotten to a working sample.
View:
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/styles/angular-chart.css">
</head>
<body ng-app="DashboardModule" ng-controller="BarCtrl">
<canvas id="bar" class="chart chart-bar" data="data" labels="labels"></canvas>
<script src="/js/dependencies/sails.io.js"></script>
<script src="/js/dependencies/angular.js"></script>
<script src="/js/dependencies/Chart.Core.js"></script>
<script src="/js/dependencies/angular-chart.js"></script>
<script src="/js/private/dashboard/DashboardModule.js"></script>
<script src="/js/private/dashboard/DashboardController.js"></script>
</body>
Module:
angular.module('DashboardModule', ['chart.js']);
Controller:
angular.module('DashboardModule').controller("BarCtrl", function ($scope) {
$scope.labels = ['2006', '2007', '2008', '2009', '2010', '2011', '2012'];
$scope.series = ['Series A', 'Series B'];
$scope.data = [
[65, 59, 80, 81, 56, 55, 40],
[28, 48, 40, 19, 86, 27, 90]
];
});
Answer
I think the missing part was adding these two dependencies perhaps:
-- chart.js
-- angular-chart.js
working version is here: https://jsfiddle.net/cwLja39j/
FYI: for jsfiddle, github files can be added as "External Resources" by running them through rawgit.com first.
Markup:
<div ng-app="DashboardModule" ng-controller="BarCtrl">
<canvas id="bar" class="chart chart-bar" data="data" labels="labels"></canvas>
</div>
JS :
angular.module("DashboardModule", ["chart.js"]).controller("BarCtrl", function ($scope) {
$scope.labels = ['2006', '2007', '2008', '2009', '2010', '2011', '2012'];
$scope.series = ['Series A', 'Series B'];
$scope.data = [
[65, 59, 80, 81, 56, 55, 40],
[28, 48, 40, 19, 86, 27, 90]
];
});
(used Chrome, no errors seen in console)
