[Chartjs]-How to add a Date Selector to Chartjs in the context of Vue.js

✅

You need to filter the data based on the date and rerender the chart for the new data.
Here is the working jsfiddle
I add click event @click="selectPeriod" inside html:

<div id='app'>
  <div id="range-selector">
    <input type="button" id="1m" @click="selectPeriod" class="period ui-button" value="1m" />
    <input type="button" id="3m" @click="selectPeriod" class="period ui-button" value="3m" />
    <input type="button" id="6m" @click="selectPeriod" class="period ui-button" value="6m" />
    <input type="button" id="all" @click="selectPeriod" class="period ui-button" value="All" />
  </div>
  <canvas ref='chart' width='800' height='600'></canvas>
</div>

and following js code:

new Vue({
  data: () => ({
    date: [
      1567295500.0,
      1567893700.0,
