Props

Props of the native component are also available.

Name	Type	Default	Description
series*	Array<object>	-	The series to display in the line chart. An array of LineSeriesType objects.
axisHighlight	{ x?: 'band' \| 'line' \| 'none', y?: 'band' \| 'line' \| 'none' }	{ x: 'line' }	The configuration of axes highlight. See highlighting docs for more details.
bottomAxis	object \| string	xAxisIds[0] The id of the first provided axis	Indicate which axis to display the bottom of the charts. Can be a string (the id of the axis) or an object `ChartsXAxisProps`.
colors	Array<string> \| func	blueberryTwilightPalette	Color palette used to colorize multiple series.
dataset	Array<object>	-	An array of objects that can be used to populate series and axes data using their `dataKey` property.
disableAxisListener	bool	false	If `true`, the charts will not listen to the mouse move event. It might break interactive features, but will improve performance.
disableLineItemHighlight	bool	-	If `true`, render the line highlight item.
experimentalMarkRendering	bool	-	If `true` marks will render `<circle />` instead of `<path />` and drop theme override for faster rendering.
grid	{ horizontal?: bool, vertical?: bool }	-	Option to display a cartesian grid in the background.
height	number	-	The height of the chart in px. If not defined, it takes the height of the parent element.
highlightedItem	{ dataIndex?: number, seriesId?: number \| string }	-	The item currently highlighted. Turns highlighting into a controlled prop.
leftAxis	object \| string	yAxisIds[0] The id of the first provided axis	Indicate which axis to display the left of the charts. Can be a string (the id of the axis) or an object `ChartsYAxisProps`.
loading	bool	false	If `true`, a loading overlay is displayed.
margin	{ bottom?: number, left?: number, right?: number, top?: number }	object Depends on the charts type.	The margin between the SVG and the drawing area. It's used for leaving some space for extra information such as the x- and y-axis or legend. Accepts an object with the optional properties: `top`, `bottom`, `left`, and `right`.
onAreaClick	func	-	Callback fired when an area element is clicked.
onAxisClick	func	-	The function called for onClick events. The second argument contains information about all line/bar elements at the current mouse position. Signature:`function(event: MouseEvent, data: null \| AxisData) => void` `event` The mouse event recorded on the `<svg/>` element. `data` The data about the clicked axis and items associated with it.
onHighlightChange	func	-	The callback fired when the highlighted item changes. Signature:`function(highlightedItem: HighlightItemData \| null) => void` `highlightedItem` The newly highlighted item.
onLineClick	func	-	Callback fired when a line element is clicked.
onMarkClick	func	-	Callback fired when a mark element is clicked.
resolveSizeBeforeRender	bool	false	The chart will try to wait for the parent container to resolve its size before it renders for the first time. This can be useful in some scenarios where the chart appear to grow after the first render, like when used inside a grid.
rightAxis	object \| string	null	Indicate which axis to display the right of the charts. Can be a string (the id of the axis) or an object `ChartsYAxisProps`.
skipAnimation	bool	false	If `true`, animations are skipped.
slotProps	object	{}	The props used for each component slot.
slots	object	{}	Overridable component slots. See Slots API below for more details.
tooltip	{ axisContent?: elementType, classes?: object, itemContent?: elementType, slotProps?: object, slots?: object, trigger?: 'axis' \| 'item' \| 'none' }	{ trigger: 'item' }	The configuration of the tooltip. See tooltip docs for more details.
topAxis	object \| string	null	Indicate which axis to display the top of the charts. Can be a string (the id of the axis) or an object `ChartsXAxisProps`.
