type	string	'doughnut'	chart.js type 'bar', 'line', etc.
data	ChartData	{}	chart.js data object, see docs
plugins	any[]	[]	chart.js plugin array, see docs
redraw	boolean	false	force redraw on any input change, like to change legend
options	any	{}	chart.js options
legend	any	{display: true, position: 'bottom'}	chart.js legend see docs

chartClick	ChartClickEvent	returns the click $event along with element, elements and dataset see docs
