Got it! Had to make chart inside ajax call.
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
var dps = [{x: 1, y: 10}];
$.ajax({
url : "stackedcanvasjson.json",
success : function(result) {
var dataFromJSON = JSON.parse(result);
dps.splice(0, dps.length);
$.each(dataFromJSON, function (index, value) {
dps.push(value);
});
var chart = new CanvasJS.Chart("chartContainer", {
title:{
text:"Olympic Medals of all Times (till 2012 Olympics)"
},
animationEnabled: true,
legend: {
cursor:"pointer",
itemclick : function(e) {
if (typeof (e.dataSeries.visible) === "undefined" || e.dataSeries.visible) {
e.dataSeries.visible = false;
}
else {
e.dataSeries.visible = true;
}
chart.render();
}
},
axisY: {
title: "Medals"
},
toolTip: {
shared: true,
content: function(e){
var str = '';
var total = 0 ;
var str3;
var str2 ;
for (var i = 0; i < e.entries.length; i++){
console.log(e.entries[i].dataPoint.y);
var str1 = "<span style= 'color:"+e.entries[i].dataSeries.color + "'> " + e.entries[i].dataSeries.name + "</span>: <strong>"+ e.entries[i].dataPoint.y + "</strong> <br/>" ;
total = e.entries[i].dataPoint.y + total;
str = str.concat(str1);
}
str2 = "<span style = 'color:DodgerBlue; '><strong>"+e.entries[0].dataPoint.label + "</strong></span><br/>";
str3 = "<span style = 'color:Tomato '>Total: </span><strong>" + total + "</strong><br/>";
return (str2.concat(str)).concat(str3);
}
},
data: [
{
type: "bar",
showInLegend: true,
name: "CR",
color: "#1f77b4",
dataPoints:dps[0]
},
{
type: "bar",
showInLegend: true,

chart.render();
