[charts] In Chart.js set chart title, name of x axis and y axis?

Does Chart.js (documentation) have option for datasets to set name (title) of chart (e.g. Temperature in my City), name of x axis (e.g. Days) and name of y axis (e.g. Temperature). Or I should solve this with css?

var lineChartData = {
    labels : ["January","February","March","April","May","June","July"],
    datasets : [
        {
            fillColor : "rgba(220,220,220,0.2)",
            strokeColor : "rgba(220,220,220,1)",
            pointColor : "rgba(220,220,220,1)",
            pointStrokeColor : "#fff",
            pointHighlightFill : "#fff",
            pointHighlightStroke : "rgba(220,220,220,1)",
            data : [data]
        }
    ]

}

Realy thanks for help.

The answer is


just use this:

<script>
  var ctx = document.getElementById("myChart").getContext('2d');
  var myChart = new Chart(ctx, {
    type: 'bar',
    data: {
      labels: ["1","2","3","4","5","6","7","8","9","10","11",],
      datasets: [{
        label: 'YOUR LABEL',
        backgroundColor: [
          "#566573",
          "#99a3a4",
          "#dc7633",
          "#f5b041",
          "#f7dc6f",
          "#82e0aa",
          "#73c6b6",
          "#5dade2",
          "#a569bd",
          "#ec7063",
          "#a5754a"
        ],
        data: [12, 19, 3, 17, 28, 24, 7, 2,4,14,6],            
      },]
    },
    //HERE COMES THE AXIS Y LABEL
    options : {
      scales: {
        yAxes: [{
          scaleLabel: {
            display: true,
            labelString: 'probability'
          }
        }]
      }
    }
  });
</script>

If you have already set labels for your axis like how @andyhasit and @Marcus mentioned, and would like to change it at a later time, then you can try this:

chart.options.scales.yAxes[ 0 ].scaleLabel.labelString = "New Label";

Full config for reference:

var chartConfig = {
    type: 'line',
    data: {
      datasets: [ {
        label: 'DefaultLabel',
        backgroundColor: '#ff0000',
        borderColor: '#ff0000',
        fill: false,
        data: [],
      } ]
    },
    options: {
      responsive: true,
      scales: {
        xAxes: [ {
          type: 'time',
          display: true,
          scaleLabel: {
            display: true,
            labelString: 'Date'
          },
          ticks: {
            major: {
              fontStyle: 'bold',
              fontColor: '#FF0000'
            }
          }
        } ],
        yAxes: [ {
          display: true,
          scaleLabel: {
            display: true,
            labelString: 'value'
          }
        } ]
      }
    }
  };

          <Scatter
            data={data}
            // style={{ width: "50%", height: "50%" }}
            options={{

                    },

                    },
                  },
                ],
