As per chart.js documentation I can specify an Array for Colors of border and background.
However on using this following configuration for chart.js. I am trying to figure out why array values for borderColor and backgroundColor are not working.
I am using chart.js 2.6.0 via react-chartjs-2. Is this not something which is supported out of the box with chart.js v2 ?

Generated graph looks like this, I was expected alternating line segments to have alternate colors.
