`onHover`	`function`	`null`	Called when any of the events fire. Called in the context of the chart and passed the event and an array of active elements (bars, points, etc).

Event Option

For example, to have the chart only respond to click events, you could do:

var chart = new Chart(ctx, {
    type: 'line',
    data: data,
    options: {
        // This chart will not respond to mousemove, etc
        events: ['click']
    }
});
