Violin chart does not work when config.data.labels is empty

[RudeySH]

I am upgrading to chart.js 4.x, and switching over from the original repo to this maintained fork.

I ran into an unexpected issue where my violin chart did not render until I added labels: [''] to my my config.

In the original repo, labels was not required. As a workaround I am using an empty string at the moment.

do you need the label when you plot a normal bar chart using chart.js 4.x?

I just tested it with a normal bar chart. I found that those also don't render when no labels are provided.

I found that those also don't render when no labels are provided. that would indicate that it is a chart.js core thing and thus not related to this plugin itself. Closing, please open your question in chart.js directly.
