Late edit: there is an official plugin for Chart.js 2.7.0+
to do this: https://github.com/chartjs/chartjs-plugin-datalabels
Original answer:
You can loop through the points / bars onAnimationComplete and display the values
Preview
HTML
<canvas id="myChart1" height="300" width="500"></canvas>
<canvas id="myChart2" height="300" width="500"></canvas>
Script
var chartData = {
labels: ["January", "February", "March", "April", "May", "June"],
datasets: [
{
fillColor: "#79D1CF",
strokeColor: "#79D1CF",
data: [60, 80, 81, 56, 55, 40]
}
]
};
var ctx = document.getElementById("myChart1").getContext("2d");
var myLine = new Chart(ctx).Line(chartData, {
showTooltips: false,
onAnimationComplete: function () {
var ctx = this.chart.ctx;
ctx.font = this.scale.font;
ctx.fillStyle = this.scale.textColor
ctx.textAlign = "center";
ctx.textBaseline = "bottom";
this.datasets.forEach(function (dataset) {
dataset.points.forEach(function (points) {
ctx.fillText(points.value, points.x, points.y - 10);
});
})
}
});
var ctx = document.getElementById("myChart2").getContext("2d");
var myBar = new Chart(ctx).Bar(chartData, {
showTooltips: false,
onAnimationComplete: function () {
var ctx = this.chart.ctx;
ctx.font = this.scale.font;
ctx.fillStyle = this.scale.textColor
ctx.textAlign = "center";
ctx.textBaseline = "bottom";
this.datasets.forEach(function (dataset) {
dataset.bars.forEach(function (bar) {
ctx.fillText(bar.value, bar.x, bar.y - 5);
});
})
}
});
