Using classic chart from Chart.js and a financial chart: Uncaught TypeError: Class extends value undefined is not a constructor or null

[CreativeWarlock]

Hi mate,

I've run into a problem with employing your financial chart module together with another canvas displaying a chart from chart.js.

The browser console points the "Uncaught TypeError: Class extends value undefined is not a constructor or null" error
to line 235 in chartjs-chart-financial.js:

class FinancialController extends Chart.BarController { ... }

Here are two templates being used in node red which are loaded into the front end. Both reference to individual canvasses with different IDs. (As you will see below, I try to destroy any previously existing chart instance)

First script:

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/luxon@1.24.1"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/chart.js@3.0.0-beta.9/dist/chart.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/chartjs-adapter-luxon@0.2.1"></script>
<script src="../chartjs-chart-financial.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

<div style="width:1000px">
	<canvas id="candleStickChart"></canvas>
</div>

<div>
	Bar Type:
	<select id="type">
		<option value="candlestick" selected>Candlestick</option>
		<option value="ohlc">OHLC</option>
	</select>
	Scale Type:
	<select id="scale-type">
		<option value="linear" selected>Linear</option>
		<option value="logarithmic">Logarithmic</option>
	</select>
	Color Scheme:
	<select id="color-scheme">
		<option value="muted" selected>Muted</option>
		<option value="neon">Neon</option>
	</select>
	Border:
	<select id="border-color">
		<option value="true" selected>Yes</option>
		<option value="false">No</option>
	</select>
	<button id="update">Update</button>
	<button id="randomizeData">Randomize Data</button>
</div>
