Custom label from using separate array in Chart JS

Question

In my project, I am using Chart.JS to show the line chart.

Right now the tooltip in the graph showing like

Date: 01/02/2016

Price: 50

These data getting from two arrays. But I need to show one more data below the price. So the tooltip will be like

Date: 01/02/2016

Price: 50

Shop: Shop Name

How can I achieve this in Chart JS? Or is it possible with some other chart? Please help. My sample code to generate the graph is

var myLineChart = new Chart(ctx, {
    type: 'line',
    data: {
    labels: data.day,
    datasets: [{
        label: 'Price Change',
        data: data.price,
        backgroundColor: "rgba(255,255,255,0.4)",
        borderColor: "rgba(0, 183, 255,0.4)",
        pointRadius: 5,
        pointBorderColor: "rgba(255,0,0,0.4)",
        pointBackgroundColor: "rgba(255,0,0,0.4)",
    }]
    },
    options: {
        tooltips: {
            enabled: true,
            mode: 'single',
            callbacks: {
                label: function(tooltipItems, data) { 
                    return 'Price: '+tooltipItems.yLabel;
                }
            }
        }
    }
    });

In the above code data.price is storing the price array. I need to pass the store details with it and show it in the tooltip.

you can storing your tooltips items in an array, and return back, it will show on the tooltips label.

for example:

callbacks: {
    label: function(tooltipItem, data) {
        var firstTooltip = "toolTipsIdx: " + tooltipItem.index;
        var otherTooltip = "Ylabel value: " + tooltipItem.yLabel;
        var tooltip = [firstTooltip, otherTooltip]; //storing all the value here
        return tooltip; //return Array back to function to show out
    }
}
