const config = {
  type: 'wordCloud',
  data: {
    // text
    labels: ['Hello', 'world', 'normally', 'you', 'want', 'more', 'words', 'than', 'this'],
    datasets: [
      {
        label: 'DS',
        // size in pixel
        data: [90, 80, 70, 60, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10],
      },
    ],
  },

A word has the basic FontSpec styling options (family, color, ...). In addition it has several options regarding rotating the text.

Controller options:

Word element options:

The ESM build of the library supports tree shaking thus having no side effects. As a consequence the chart.js library won't be automatically manipulated nor new controllers automatically registered. One has to manually import and register them.

Variant A:

import { Chart } from 'chart.js';
import { WordCloudController, WordElement } from 'chartjs-chart-wordcloud';

Chart.register(WordCloudController, WordElement);
...

new Chart(ctx, {
  type: WordCloudController.id,
  data: [...],
});

Variant B:

import { WordCloudChart } from 'chartjs-chart-wordcloud';

new WordCloudChart(ctx, {
  data: [...],
});
