Automatic colors assignment in chart.js 2.x doesn't work anymore, used to work in v. 1.x

Question

Using Chart.js 1.x I could create a pie chart and get the colors automatically assigned:

Answer 1

I would actually recommend ChartsJS-Plugin-ColorSchemes. Simply importing it after chartjs will be enough for you to have automatic coloring but adding options will allow you to make custom palettes, for example.

...

  options: {

    plugins: {

      colorschemes: {

        scheme: 'tableau.Tableau20'

      }

    }

  }
