chart datasets
hi,
we buy the metronic theme and i have difficult with the charts datasets.
in the docs its say const data = {
labels: labels,
datasets: [
...
]
};
but each chart has different dataset structure.
so I open the HTML file of the theme to check maybe there but I didn't understand where all the JS and data.
can you please point me to the right direction to understand the datasets issue or see some examples ?

Hi there,
You're absolutely right — while Metronic provides a common structure for initializing charts using libraries like Chart.js, each chart type (bar, pie, line, etc.) often requires a slightly different dataset configuration based on the data it visualizes.
In the Metronic theme, most chart data and configuration are managed in separate JavaScript files, often located in the /assets/js/widgets/ or /assets/js/custom/ folders. You can inspect these files to see examples of how datasets are structured for each chart.
Also, if you're looking for a simple way to understand how data structures relate to chart behavior, we recommend checking out some practical implementations and guides we’ve compiled here: While the focus is different, the examples there offer insight into how structured data is dynamically used, which might help you visualize dataset applications more clearly.
Hi,
May I know which Metronic version are you using ? Our chart examples are based on Apexcharts and you can refer to the plugin's official documentation.

Sean
