I'm trying to render the basic line chart using Chartkick (with the default, Chart.js) in Ruby on Rails. I have followed the installation instructions here () and added:

1. gem "chartkick" to the gem file
2. pin "chartkick", to: "chartkick.js" and pin "Chart.bundle", to: "Chart.bundle.js" to importmap.rb
3. In my application layout, I've added <%= javascript_importmap_tags %>
4. In User/index.html, I have <%= line_chart User.group_by_day(:created_at).count %>. I have tried a more basic, <%= line_chart({"2021-01-01" => 2, "2021-01-02" => 3}) %>.

This render a page that says, "Loading...". An inspection of that page shows,

(function() {
    if (document.documentElement.hasAttribute("data-turbolinks-preview")) return;
    if (document.documentElement.hasAttribute("data-turbo-preview")) return;

    var createChart = function() { new Chartkick["LineChart"]("chart-2", [["2021-01-01",2],["2021-01-02",3]], {}); };
    if ("Chartkick" in window) {
      createChart();
    } else {
      window.addEventListener("chartkick:load", createChart, true);
    }
})();

Can someone please let me determine what steps I'm missing to show the graph?

• 1 The solution in this post stackoverflow./questions/61110304/… worked for me but it doesn't make sense because it uses Google maps, whereas the installation instructions say it uses Chart.js as the default. – Anne Lalsingh Commented Aug 23, 2022 at 19:31

To solve this issue, you need to put <%= javascript_include_tag "//www.google./jsapi", "chartkick" %> in application.html.erb.

For me, the issue was being caused by "defer: true" in the application.js import:

<%= javascript_include_tag "application", "data-turbo-track": "reload", defer: true %>

Removing defer solved it for me (AND making sure include_tag is in head, not right before /body). Charts began working again:

<%= javascript_include_tag "application", "data-turbo-track": "reload" %>

I can only assume that Chartkick doesn't like to load too late. I tried creating a new file next to application.js with only import "chartkick/chart.js" and its own include_tag without defer, but errors were thrown in the browser console.

Would love a way to use defer and have Chartkick work, but I couldn't find one. Let me know if anyone has found a solution.
