    I want to use CanvasJs React for the first time and follow guide at this link.

    The link show three steps :
    1. Create a React App
    2. Save CanvasJS React Files in your app (downloaded from link)
    3. Import CanvasJS React Component

    I already done the three steps above, but after finishing the last steps i got this error on the webpage:

    TypeError: Cannot assign to read only property 'exports' of object '#<Object>'
    
    Module.<anonymous>
    src/assets/js/canvasjs.react.js:42
      39 |  }   
      40 | }
      41 | 
    > 42 | module.exports = {
      43 |     CanvasJSChart: CanvasJSChart,
      44 |     CanvasJS: CanvasJS
      45 | };

    canvasjs.react.js :

    var React = require('react');
    var CanvasJS = require('./canvasjs.min');
    
    class CanvasJSChart extends React.Component {
        static _cjsContainerId = 0
        constructor(props) {        
            super(props);       
            this.options = props.options ? props.options : {};      
            this.containerProps = props.containerProps ? props.containerProps : {width: "100%", position: "relative"};
            this.containerProps.height = props.containerProps && props.containerProps.height ? props.containerProps.height : this.options.height ? this.options.height + "px" : "400px";
            this.chartContainerId = "canvasjs-react-chart-container-" + CanvasJSChart._cjsContainerId++;
        }   
        componentDidMount() {
            //Create Chart and Render
            this.chart = new CanvasJS.Chart(this.chartContainerId, this.options);
            this.chart.render();
    
            if(this.props.onRef)
                this.props.onRef(this.chart);
        }   
        shouldComponentUpdate(nextProps, nextState){
            //Check if Chart-options has changed and determine if component has to be updated
            return !(nextProps.options === this.options);
        }
        componentDidUpdate() {
            //Update Chart Options & Render
            this.chart.options = this.props.options;
            this.chart.render();
        }
        componentWillUnmount() {
            //Destroy chart and remove reference
            this.chart.destroy();
            if(this.props.onRef)
                this.props.onRef(undefined);
        }       
        render() {      
            //return React.createElement('div', { id: this.chartContainerId, style: this.containerProps });     
            return <div id = {this.chartContainerId} style = {this.containerProps}/>        
        }   
    }
    
    module.exports = {
        CanvasJSChart: CanvasJSChart,
        CanvasJS: CanvasJS
    };

    App.js :

    import React, { Component } from 'react';
    var CanvasJSReact = require('./assets/js/canvasjs.react');
    var CanvasJS = CanvasJSReact.CanvasJS;
    var CanvasJSChart = CanvasJSReact.CanvasJSChart;
    
    class App extends Component {
        render() {
            const options = {
                title: {
                    text: 'Basic Column Chart in React',
                },
                data: [
                    {
                        type: 'column',
                        dataPoints: [
                            { label: 'Apple', y: 10 },
                            { label: 'Orange', y: 15 },
                            { label: 'Banana', y: 25 },
                            { label: 'Mango', y: 30 },
                            { label: 'Grape', y: 28 },
                        ],
                    },
                ],
            };
    
            return (
                <div>
                    <CanvasJSChart
                        options={options}
                        /* onRef = {ref => this.chart = ref} */
                    />
                </div>
            );
        }
    }
    
    export default App;

    I already tried to change module.exports in canvasjs.react.js to export default and require() in App.js to import but got another error appear TypeError: CanvasJS.Chart is not a constructor.

    Here is my project code link

    I’m using create-react-app v1.5.2 with:

    react: 16.6.3,
    react-dom: 16.6.3,
    react-scripts: 2.1.1
    
    nodejs: v8.13.0
    npx: v6.4.1

    Anyone has ever had a problem like me?

    I am seeing the exact same behavior and message. Was thinking of purchasing but cannot get it to work in React App.

    #23573

    @ronaldtakarai @jstaufferbohlereng-com,

    Apologies for the inconvenience caused. The issue seems to be due to the breaking changes in Webpack that was introduced in v2.2.0-rc.5. We will fix it in our React Component soon. Please find the working code here.

    Hello Canvas team,
    The issue has been fixed. However, we are getting the following error while using StackedArea chart. How quickly can this be fixed ?

    ReferenceError: markerColor is not defined
    l.renderStackedArea
    src/js/canvasjs.min.js:370
    

    Many Thanks !
