Axis title plugin for Chartist.js

This plugin allows the creation and placement of axis titles. The plugin will throw an error if it is applied to a chart that contains no axes, such as a Pie chart.

In order to use it, you will need to include the excellent charting library Chartist.js in your page.

Available options and their defaults

var defaultOptions = {
  // The title to be displayed on the axis. If at least one axis title is not supplied then an error is thrown.
  // This can also be passed a function to enable simple updating of the title if your chart data changes.
  axisTitle: "",
 
  // One or more class names to be added to the axis title.
  // Multiple class names should be separated by a space.
  // This can also be passed a function to enable simple updating of the classes if your chart data changes.
  axisClass: "ct-axis-title",
 
  // How much to offset the title by.
  // Please note, x and y offset values for axisY are flipped due to the rotation of the axisY title by 90 degrees.
  // Therefore changing the x value moves up/down the chart, while changing y moves left/right.
  offset: { x: 0, y: 0 },
 
  // Defines the anchoring of the title text. Possible values are 'start', 'end' and 'middle'.
  textAnchor: "middle",
 
  // Whether to flip the direction of the text. Note - This can only be used on axis Y.
  flipTitle: false
};
