You can use
y filter/.expression={y==0 ? nan : y}
in the options of \addplot
.
\documentclass{article}
% ---------------------------------- tikz
\usepackage{pgfplots} % to print charts
\pgfplotsset{compat=1.12}
\begin{document}
\begin{figure}
\centering
\begin{tikzpicture}
\begin{axis} [
% general
ybar,
scale only axis,
height=0.5\textwidth,
width=1.2\textwidth,
ylabel={\# Dots},
nodes near coords,
xlabel={Variation},
xticklabel style={

anchor=east,
},
%enlarge x limits={abs value={3}},
]
\addplot+[y filter/.expression={y==0 ? nan : y}] table [
x=grade,
y=value,
] {
grade value

};
\end{axis}
\end{tikzpicture}

It does not work in your MWE because you are overwriting it by also giving the option nodes near coors
to the \addplot
command. Remove the latter one (or specify format here), and it will print. I added a thinspace before the percentage sign, although it can also be recommended to load the siunitx
package and let that format and typeset the values for you.
Anyway, here's the quickfixed version:
\documentclass[border=3pt]{standalone}

colormap={blackwhite}{gray(0cm)=(1); gray(1cm)=(0.5)},

One way to do this is to use the
scatter/@pre marker code
to "manually" draw the error bars and markers. This will automatically use the drawing style of the plot markers (including the color). A drawback is that PGFPlots doesn't adjust the axis limits automatically to accommodate the error bars. To work around this, you can also draw "conventional" but transparent error bars.Here's a style
error bars with color
that takes the name of the column containing the error values as a mandatory argument, and implements the above approach. The style must be used after yourscatter/classes
definition, as it would otherwise be overridden.Full code:
