How to customize each label of the axis in different format in React Chart?

This article explains how to customize each label of the axis in different format in React Chart.

Customize each label of the axis in a different format

You can change the individual axis labels by using the axisLabelRender event.

In the following example, the axis label render event is used to represent the first label of each month in month format, while the remaining labels within the same month are represented in day format.

Index.js

import { createRoot } from 'react-dom/client';
import * as React from 'react';
import { ChartComponent, SeriesCollectionDirective, SeriesDirective, Inject, LineSeries, DateTime } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-charts';

let month = null;
const Line = () => {
  const axisLabelRender = (args) => {
      if (args.axis.name === 'primaryXAxis') {
         const labelValue = new Date(args.value);
         if (month !== labelValue.getMonth()) {
             month = labelValue.getMonth();
             args.text = labelValue.toLocaleString('en-US', { month: 'short' });
         } else {
             args.text = labelValue.getDate().toString();
         }
      }
  };
return (
    <ChartComponent
      id="charts"
      primaryXAxis={{
        valueType: 'DateTime',
        edgeLabelPlacement: 'Shift',
        intervalType: 'Days',
        interval: 11,
        minimum: new Date(2012, 6, 1),
        maximum: new Date(2012, 8, 27)
      }}
      primaryYAxis={{
        rangePadding: 'None',
        minimum: 0,
        maximum: 20,
        interval: 4
      }}
      axisLabelRender={axisLabelRender.bind(this)}
    >
      <Inject services={[LineSeries, DateTime]} />
      <SeriesCollectionDirective>
        <SeriesDirective
          dataSource={data1}
          xName="x"
          yName="y"
          type="Line"
        ></SeriesDirective>
      </SeriesCollectionDirective>
    </ChartComponent>
  );
};
export default Line;

const root = createRoot(document.getElementById('sample'));
root.render(<Line />);
