I'm trying to format values as currency in the Vega-Lite editor. I'm attempting to copy the docs but I'm getting a weird error. The Y axis is a numerical value. Passing in a formatting string gives "value expected".
Here's the relevant section:
...
"encoding": {
"x": {
"axis": {
"domainColor": "#DDD",
"grid": false,
"labelColor": "#AEAEAE",
"ticks": false,
"labelPadding": 10
},
"field": "time",
"type": "temporal",
"title": ""
},
"y": {
"axis": {
"labelOffset": 2,
"domainColor": "white",
"labelColor": "#AEAEAE",
"ticks": false,
"labelPadding": 10,
"format": '$.2f' // <- the line in question
},
...
What am I missing here? How do I get it to accept my formatting string?
"$.2f"
looks like a the correct d3-format string for currency, but note that this is only valid if the associated formatType
is "number"
(see axis label docs ).
Since you did not include a full reproducible example of the problem you're seeing, I can only venture a guess that your data type is not numeric, and this is why the formatting is failing. If that's not the case, I'd suggest editing your question to provide a complete example of the error you're seeing.
