See discussion in the issue for context and possible approaches.
When invoking update() inside an event handler, such as onHover,
`options.hover.animationDuration` was not being respected. Given that
some use cases may require additional animation properties for the
manual update call, this commit changes that method signature to accept
a configuration object.
This object provides backwards compatibility with duration and lazy
properties, and also introduces the easing property so that the event
animation is different from the global one.
Add tests that guarantee that when update is called manually with
arguments, it properly builds the _bufferedRequest or calls render with
the proper arguments.
It includes test cases for when update is called with legacy arguments
(duration and lazy) instead of the config object.
.update() documentation was previously updated but .render() was left
out. Since the backwards compatible change was also made to render(),
this commit adds documentation for it.
myLineChart.destroy();
```
-## .update(duration, lazy)
+## .update(config)
Triggers an update of the chart. This can be safely called after updating the data object. This will update all scales, legends, and then re-render the chart.
> **Note:** replacing the data reference (e.g. `myLineChart.data = {datasets: [...]}` only works starting **version 2.6**. Prior that, replacing the entire data object could be achieved with the following workaround: `myLineChart.config.data = {datasets: [...]}`.
+A `config` object can be provided with additional configuration for the update process. This is useful when `update` is manually called inside an event handler and some different animation is desired.
+
+The following properties are supported:
+* **duration** (number): Time for the animation of the redraw in milliseconds
+* **lazy** (boolean): If true, the animation can be interrupted by other animations
+* **easing** (string): The animation easing function. See [Animation Easing](../configuration/animations.md) for possible values.
+
+Example:
+```javascript
+myChart.update({
+ duration: 800,
+ easing: 'easeOutBounce'
+})
+```
+
See [Updating Charts](updates.md) for more details.
## .reset()
myLineChart.reset();
```
-## .render(duration, lazy)
+## .render(config)
Triggers a redraw of all chart elements. Note, this does not update elements for new data. Use `.update()` in that case.
+See `.update(config)` for more details on the config object.
+
```javascript
// duration is the time for the animation of the redraw in milliseconds
// lazy is a boolean. if true, the animation can be interrupted by other animations
-myLineChart.render(duration, lazy);
+myLineChart.render({
+ duration: 800,
+ lazy: false,
+ easing: 'easeOutBounce'
+});
```
