对数轴(Logarithmic Axis)

The logarithmic scale is used to chart numerical data. It can be placed on either the x or y-axis. As the name suggests, logarithmic interpolation is used to determine where a value lies on the axis.

## Configuration Options
### Common options to all cartesian axes

| Name        | Type            | Default            | Description    |
|-------------|-----------------|-----------------|--------------------|
| bounds      | string          | 'ticks'            | Determines the scale bounds. more...       |
| position    | string &#124; object | | Position of the axis. more...      |
| stack       | string          | | Stack group. Axes at the same position with same stack are stacked.                  |
| stackWeight | number          | 1                  | Weight of the scale in stack group. Used to determine the amount of allocated space for the scale within the group.         |
| axis        | string          | | Which type of axis this is. Possible values are: 'x', 'y'. If not set, this is inferred from the first character of the ID which should be 'x' or 'y'. |
| offset      | boolean         | false              | If true, extra space is added to the both edges and the axis is scaled to fit into the chart area. This is set to true for a bar chart by default. |
| title       | object          | | Scale title configuration. more...        |

| Name            | Type    | Default      | Description                  |
|-----------------|---------|--------------|--------------|
| align           | string  | 'center'     | The tick alignment along the axis. Can be 'start', 'center', 'end', or 'inner'. inner alignment means align start for first tick and end for the last tick of horizontal axis                                                      |
| crossAlign      | string  | 'near'       | The tick alignment perpendicular to the axis. Can be 'near', 'center', or 'far'. See Tick Alignment                                                              |
| sampleSize      | number  | ticks.length | The number of ticks to examine when deciding how many labels will fit. Setting a smaller value will be faster, but may be less accurate when there is large variability in label length.                                           |
| autoSkip        | boolean | true         | If true, automatically calculates how many labels can be shown and hides labels accordingly. Labels will be rotated up to maxRotation before skipping any. Turn autoSkip off to show all labels no matter what.                    |
| autoSkipPadding | number  | 3            | Padding between the ticks on the horizontal axis when autoSkip is enabled.                     |
| includeBounds   | boolean | true         | Should the defined min and max values be presented as ticks even if they are not "nice".       |
| labelOffset     | number  | 0            | Distance in pixels to offset the label from the centre point of the tick (in the x-direction for the x-axis, and the y-direction for the y-axis). Note: this can cause labels at the edges to be cropped by the edge of the canvas |
| maxRotation     | number  | 50           | Maximum rotation for tick labels when rotating to condense labels. Note: Rotation doesn't occur until necessary. Note: Only applicable to horizontal scales.     |
| minRotation     | number  | 0            | Minimum rotation for tick labels. Note: Only applicable to horizontal scales.                  |
| mirror          | boolean | false        | Flips tick labels around axis, displaying the labels inside the chart instead of outside. Note: Only applicable to vertical scales.     |
| padding         | number  | 0            | Padding between the tick label and the axis. When set on a vertical axis, this applies in the horizontal (X) direction. When set on a horizontal axis, this applies in the vertical (Y) direction.                                 |
| maxTicksLimit   | number  | 11           | Maximum number of ticks and gridlines to show.      |

## Internal data format
Internally, the logarithmic scale uses numeric data.
