chart.js Failed to create chart: can't acquire context from the given item : <p>I never got into node so I am pretty sure I am doing something massively wrong here since I cannot find any info at all by googling. </p>

<p>I have a django site and I wanted a JS charting library, I chose chart.js. </p>

<p>I installed and like the docs, but after that I am unsure of what to do so I tried to fill in the blanks and follow their guide as much as possible. Here is what my html looks like....</p>

<pre><code>&lt;script src="/public/node_modules/chart.js/dist/Chart.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;

&lt;canvas id="myChart" width="400" height="400"&gt;&lt;/canvas&gt;

&lt;script&gt;    
    var ctx = document.getElementById("myChart");
    console.log(ctx);

    var options = {}

    var data = {
        labels: ["January", "February", "March", "April", "May", "June", "July"],
        datasets: [
            {
                label: "My First dataset",
                fill: false,
                lineTension: 0.1,
                backgroundColor: "rgba(75,192,192,0.4)",
                borderColor: "rgba(75,192,192,1)",
                borderCapStyle: 'butt',
                borderDash: [],
                borderDashOffset: 0.0,
                borderJoinStyle: 'miter',
                pointBorderColor: "rgba(75,192,192,1)",
                pointBackgroundColor: "#fff",
                pointBorderWidth: 1,
                pointHoverRadius: 5,
                pointHoverBackgroundColor: "rgba(75,192,192,1)",
                pointHoverBorderColor: "rgba(220,220,220,1)",
                pointHoverBorderWidth: 2,
                pointRadius: 1,
                pointHitRadius: 10,
                data: [65, 59, 80, 81, 56, 55, 40],
                spanGaps: false,
            }
        ]
    };

    var myChart = new Chart({
        type: 'line',
        data: data,
        options: options
    })
&lt;/script&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>I am just trying to get an example working. I put the node_modules directory that was downloaded via npm somewhere where my server would serve them up....and verified they are being served, but then I get this error when I try to build a chart. I took all the chart codes from their docs so I am pretty sure that part is right, but I can't see why I am getting this error.</p>
