How to display pie chart data values of each slice in chart.js

For Chart.js 2.0 and up, the Chart object data has changed. For those who are using Chart.js 2.0+, below is an example of using HTML5 Canvas fillText() method to display data value inside of the pie slice. The code works for doughnut chart, too, with the only difference being type: 'pie' versus type: 'doughnut' when creating the chart.

Script:

Javascript

var data = {
    datasets: [{
        data: [
            11,
            16,
            7,
            3,
            14
        ],
        backgroundColor: [
            "#FF6384",
            "#4BC0C0",
            "#FFCE56",
            "#E7E9ED",
            "#36A2EB"
        ],
        label: 'My dataset' // for legend
    }],
    labels: [
        "Red",
        "Green",
        "Yellow",
        "Grey",
        "Blue"
    ]
};

var pieOptions = {
  events: false,
  animation: {
    duration: 500,
    easing: "easeOutQuart",
    onComplete: function () {
      var ctx = this.chart.ctx;
      ctx.font = Chart.helpers.fontString(Chart.defaults.global.defaultFontFamily, 'normal', Chart.defaults.global.defaultFontFamily);
      ctx.textAlign = 'center';
      ctx.textBaseline = 'bottom';

      this.data.datasets.forEach(function (dataset) {

        for (var i = 0; i < dataset.data.length; i++) {
          var model = dataset._meta[Object.keys(dataset._meta)[0]].data[i]._model,
              total = dataset._meta[Object.keys(dataset._meta)[0]].total,
              mid_radius = model.innerRadius + (model.outerRadius - model.innerRadius)/2,
              start_angle = model.startAngle,
              end_angle = model.endAngle,
              mid_angle = start_angle + (end_angle - start_angle)/2;

          var x = mid_radius * Math.cos(mid_angle);
          var y = mid_radius * Math.sin(mid_angle);

          ctx.fillStyle = '#fff';
          if (i == 3){ // Darker text color for lighter background
            ctx.fillStyle = '#444';
          }
          var percent = String(Math.round(dataset.data[i]/total*100)) + "%";      
          //Don't Display If Legend is hide or value is 0
          if(dataset.data[i] != 0 && dataset._meta[0].data[i].hidden != true) {
            ctx.fillText(dataset.data[i], model.x + x, model.y + y);
            // Display percent in another line, line break doesn't work for fillText
            ctx.fillText(percent, model.x + x, model.y + y + 15);
          }
        }
      });               
    }
  }
};

var pieChartCanvas = $("#pieChart");
var pieChart = new Chart(pieChartCanvas, {
  type: 'pie', // or doughnut
  data: data,
  options: pieOptions
});

HTML

<canvas id="pieChart" width=200 height=200></canvas>

I found an excellent Chart.js plugin that does exactly what you want: https://github.com/emn178/Chart.PieceLabel.js
