Warning: Failed prop type: ChartSeries children should be Array of type ChartSeriesItem

[Danny]

I've implemented a basic line chart with nothing out of the ordinary but on the first initial load of the chart I get this warning.

Warning: Failed prop type: ChartSeries children should be Array of type ChartSeriesItem.
    in ChartSeries (created by LineChart)

import React from 'react';
import {
  Chart, ChartTitle, ChartSeries, ChartSeriesItem, ChartCategoryAxis, ChartCategoryAxisItem, ChartLegend,
} from '@progress/kendo-react-charts';
const LineChart = (props) => {
  const { allocations, mandates } = props;
  const categories = (data) => {
    const array = [];
    data.forEach((x) => {
      array.push(x.mandate);
    });
    return array;
  };
  const asdc = (data) => {
    const array = [];
    data.forEach((x) => {
      array.push(x.asdc);
    });
    return array;
  };
  return (
    <div className="line-chart">
      <Chart>
        <ChartTitle
          text="Active Spread Duration Contribution"
        />
        <ChartLegend
          position="bottom"
          orientation="horizontal"
        />
        <ChartSeries>
          <ChartSeriesItem
            type="line"
            name="New ASDC"
            data={asdc(allocations)}
            markers={{ visible: false }}
            tooltip={{ visible: true }}
          />
          <ChartSeriesItem
            type="line"
            name="Old ASDC"
            data={asdc(mandates)}
            markers={{ visible: false }}
            tooltip={{ visible: true }}
          />
        </ChartSeries>
        <ChartCategoryAxis>
          <ChartCategoryAxisItem categories={categories(allocations)} />
        </ChartCategoryAxis>
      </Chart>
    </div>
  );
};

asdc is just to create the array of data that I want. The whole chart shows up fine and works but I would like to fix this error if possible.

Thanks

Hello, Danny,

Thank you for the code.

We had a similar report before and it was connected to the PropTypes version included in the application.

Please check if updating the version of the prop-types package will resolve the warning

https://www.npmjs.com/package/prop-types

If the issue still occurs, please share the package.json, as this will provide us with a better understanding of the setup.

Also, please have in mind that this is a type warning in development, it is not an issue and it will not be shown in production.

Hey Stefan,

Appreciate the response! I updated my the prop-types package from 15.6.2 to 15.7.2 and the warning is still there.

here's my package.json. Thanks for all the help Stefan.

Hello, Danny,

Thank you for the additional details.

I made a new project using the provided code, but the Chart was rendered without any warnings.

The only thing that is different in my example is the data, as I do not have access to the real one.

I'm attaching the project I used for the test, is it possible to see if you will be able to reproduce the error by modifying it, as this will help us investigate it locally. I assume that there is a very small detail which we are missing.

Hello, everyone.

I've been getting the same warning and I've had no luck trying to figure it out so far.

Has anyone solved it yet?

[Stefan]

Hello, Nilton,

Please share the current Chart implementation from the real application and I will be happy to take a look to see if there is any reason for the error.

In general, the error can occur if ChartSeriesItem is not a direct child of ChartSeries.
