So, I've been updating a functioning but not elegant D3 chart using https://github.com/NickQiZhu/d3-cookbook/blob/master/src/chapter9/pie-chart.html
My class looks like this:
function doughnutChart(selector_div) {
"use strict";
var _chart = {};
var _width = 200, _height = 200,
_data = [],
_svg, _bodyG, _pieG,
_radius = 100,
_inner_radius = 50;
_chart.render = function() {
if (!_svg) {
_svg = d3.select(selector_div).append("svg")
.attr("height", _height)
.attr("width", _width);
}
renderBody(_svg);
};
function renderBody(svg) {
if (!_bodyG) {
_bodyG = svg.append("g")
.attr("class", "body");
}
renderDoughnut();
}
function renderDoughnut() {
var pie = d3.layout.pie()
.sort(function (d) {
return d.id;
})
.value(function (d) {
return d.count + d.abnormal;
});
var arc = d3.svg.arc()
.outerRadius(_radius)
.innerRadius(_inner_radius);
if (!_pieG) {
_pieG = _bodyG.append("g")
.attr("class", "pie")
.attr("transform", "translate("
+ _radius
+ ","
+ _radius + ")");
}
renderSlices(pie, arc);
renderLabels(pie, arc);
}
}
function renderSlices(pie, arc) {
var slices = _pieG.selectAll("path.arc")
.data(pie(_data));
slices.enter()
.append("path")
.attr("class", "arc")
.attr("fill", function(d) {
return d.data.visualisation_colour;
});
slices.transition()
.attrTween("d", function(d) {
var currentArc = this.__current__;
if (!currentArc) {
currentArc = {startAngle: 0, endAngle: 0};
}
var interpolate = d3.interpolate(currentArc, d);
this.__current__ = interpolate(1);
return function(t) {
return arc(interpolate(t));
};
});
}
function renderLabels() {
_pieG.append("text")
.attr("dy", ".35em")
.style("text-anchor", "middle")
.attr("class", "inside")
.text(function(d) {
var total = 0;
for (var j = 0; j < _data.length; j++) {
total = total + _data[j].count + _data[j].abnormal;
}
return total;
});
}
_chart.data = function(d) {
if (!arguments.length) {
return _data;
}
_data = d;
return _chart;
};
return _chart;
}
When I use:
var chart = doughnutChart("#chart").data(data);
chart.render()
I get a nice chart rendered. But the update doesn't work:
data = $.map(cell_types, function(key, value) {
return key;
});
chart.render();
The main issue is:
How do I update this chart? I'm not sure how to get updated data into the chart. Calling render()
again does not update the data despite the data variable being updated, and I can't seem to pass new data in. The book's example doesn't appear to have this issue, as testing that works without issue.
