How can i change text of legend in c3 pie chart

Question

How can I change the Text of legend of pie chart. I am using c3 charts in my php page. I have already read the documentation of c3 charts but no luck.

Currently i am using this code it show legend for true but I not able to change the text I have tried this.

var chart = c3.generate({
        bindto: '#container',
        padding: {
                  top: 10,
                  right: 0,
                  bottom: 10,
                  left: 0,
            },
        data: {
            columns: [<?php echo $pieChartDataString; ?>],
            type : 'pie',
            labels: true
        },
        legend: {
                show: true,
                position: 'upper-center'
                format: {
                        title: function () { return "Legend title"; },
                        name : function () { return "Legend name"; },
                        value: function () { return "Legend value";}
                        }
                }

   //But these legend values or not showing 

    });

It's not showing my legend values its always shows only columns as legend.

Is there any way that I can change the legend values.

You haven't provided the data that gets outputted from your php, so it's hard to say.

But the first item in each of the columns array determines the name that goes in the legend. So:

columns: [
    ['this is legend 1', 30],
    ['put your value here', 120], 
]

would result in the legend labels being "this is legend 1" and "put your value here".

Here's a fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/jrdsxvys/9/

Edit... Another option is to use the names property, as done here: http://jsfiddle.net/jrdsxvys/40/

data: {
    columns: [
      ['d1', 30],
      ['d2', 120]
    ],
    type: 'pie',
    labels: true,
    names: {
      d1: 'some name here',
      d2: 'another name'
    }
}
