iOS Charts ValueFormatter

Question

I am using iOS charts plugin (line chart) and wish to style the chart values (the number above each point) to a decimal number.

The value is a double, but charts by defa

Almost there, just need to add the following class:

class ChartValueFormatter: NSObject, IValueFormatter {
    fileprivate var numberFormatter: NumberFormatter?

    convenience init(numberFormatter: NumberFormatter) {
        self.init()
        self.numberFormatter = numberFormatter
    }

    func stringForValue(_ value: Double, entry: ChartDataEntry, dataSetIndex: Int, viewPortHandler: ViewPortHandler?) -> String {
        guard let numberFormatter = numberFormatter
            else {
                return ""
        }
        return numberFormatter.string(for: value)!
    }
}

Now use this as the number formatter:

let numberFormatter = NumberFormatter()
numberFormatter.numberStyle = .decimal
numberFormatter.locale = Locale.current
let valuesNumberFormatter = ChartValueFormatter(numberFormatter: numberFormatter)
lineChartDataSet.valueFormatter = valuesNumberFormatter
lineChartDataSet.valueFont = lineChartDataSet.valueFont.withSize(chartFontPointSize)
