The CSS selector or the element which the chart will be set to. D3 selection object can be specified. If other chart is set already, it will be replaced with the new one (only one chart can be set in one element).
If this option is not specified, the chart will be generated but not be set. Instead, we can access the element by chart.element and set it by ourselves.
When chart is not binded, c3 starts observing if chart.element is binded by MutationObserver. In this case, polyfill is required in IE9 and IE10 because they do not support MutationObserver. On the other hand, if chart always will be binded, polyfill will not be required because MutationObserver will never be called.
#chart
bindto: '#myContainer'
// or element
bindto: document.getElementById('myContainer')
// or D3 selection object
bindto: d3.select('#myContainer')The desired width of the chart element.
If this option is not specified, the width of the chart will be calculated by the size of the parent element it's appended to.
undefined
size: {
width: 640
}This option should be specified if possible because it can improve its performance because some size calculations will be skipped by an explicit value.

Indicate if the chart should have interactions.
If false is set, all of interactions (showing/hiding tooltip, selection, mouse events, etc) will be disabled.
true

});Specify the key of x values in the data.
We can show the data with non-index x values by this option. This option is required when the type of x axis is timeseries. If this option is set on category axis, the values of the data on the key will be used for category names.

}Set formatter function for data labels.
The formatter function receives 4 arguments such as v, id, i, j and it must return a string that will be shown as the label. The arguments are:
Formatter function can be defined for each data by specifying as an object and D3 formatter function can be set (e.g. d3.format('$'))
{}

format: function (v, id, i, j) { ... }
// it's possible to set for each data
//format: {
// data1: function (v, id, i, j) { ... },

nulldesc
data: {
order: 'asc'
}Define regions for each data.
The values must be an array for each data and it should include an object that has start, end, style. If start is not set, the start will be the first data point. If end is not set, the end will be the last data point.
Currently this option supports only line chart and dashed style. If this option specified, the line will be dashed only in the regions.
{}
data: {
regions: {
data1: [{'start':1, 'end':2, 'style':'dashed'},{'start':3}],

false
data: {
// all of data will be hidden
hide: true

hide: ['data1', ...]
}This option does not hide legends, so we need to use legend.hide option together if we want to hide legend too.
Set text displayed when empty data.

}
}Set a callback for each data point to determine if it's selectable or not.
The callback will receive d as an argument and it has some parameters like id, value, index. This callback should return boolean.

onclick: function (d, element) { ... }
}Set a callback for mouseover event on each data point.
This callback will be called when mouse cursor moves onto each data point and will receive d as the argument. d is the data where mouse cursor moves onto. In this callback, this will be the Chart object.
