title: Chart.js creating a line graph using dates
body: <p>I can't seem to get Chart.js to work with dates. I have tried quite a few different methods:</p>
  
  <pre><code>let examChart = document.getElementById("examChart").getContext("2d");
  let examLineChart = new Chart(examChart, {
      type: "line",
      data: [
              { t: new Date("2015-3-15 13:3"), y: 12 },
              { t: new Date("2015-3-25 13:2"), y: 21 },
              { t: new Date("2015-4-25 14:12"), y: 32 }
      ],
      options: {
          label: "placeholder"
      }
  });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And:</p>
  
  <pre><code>let examChart = document.getElementById("examChart").getContext("2d");
  let examLineChart = new Chart(examChart, {
      type: "line",
      data: [
              { t: "2015-3-15 13:3", y: 12 },
              { t: "2015-3-25 13:2", y: 21 },
              { t: "2015-4-25 14:12", y: 32 }
      ],
      options: {
          label: "placeholder"    
      }
  });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And:</p>
  
  <pre><code>let examChart = document.getElementById("examChart").getContext("2d");
  let examLineChart = new Chart(examChart, {
      type: "line",
      data: [
              { t: "Sun Mar 15 2015 12:03:45 GMT+0000 (GMT Standard Time)", y: 12 },
              { t: "Wed Mar 25 2015 12:02:15 GMT+0000 (GMT Standard Time)", y: 21 },
              { t: "Sat Apr 25 2015 13:12:30 GMT+0100 (GMT Daylight Time)", y: 32 }
      ],
      options: {
          label: "placeholder"    
      }
  });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>To cover just a few of my attempts, I just can't seem to get how to set dates properly even after reading the documentation (<a href="http://www.chartjs.org/docs/latest/axes/cartesian/time.html" rel="noreferrer">http://www.chartjs.org/docs/latest/axes/cartesian/time.html</a>) (they don't actually give an example)</p>
  
  <p>The HTML being used:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;div class="container"&gt;
      &lt;canvas id="examChart"&gt;&lt;/canvas&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I just have no idea, although I imagine this is a rather simple problem, any help would be greatly appreciated.</p>
