Divergence tree does not display properly on the x-axis for nextflu site
huddlej opened this issue · 4 comments
Current Behavior
The time tree view on nextflu works as expected:
When one deselects the "timetree" option to view the divergence tree, the tree collapses to one position on the x-axis:
Expected behavior
The divergence view should show the branch length in divergence along the x-axis.
How to reproduce
Steps to reproduce the current behavior:
- Navigate to nextflu site
- Deselect "timetree" checkbox under "Options" in the left-hand navigation
Additional context
It is not clear if this issue is with the seasonal-flu build's tree JSONs or the nextflu code itself. In the latter case, we should transfer this issue to the nextflu repository.
The seasonal-flu build's tree JSONs are missing the xvalue
attribute leading to a NaN value in the nextflu code.
The xvalue
attribute should be included in the augur v1 export, but it's not guaranteed since it's technically a deprecated attribute.
Great catch! Would it be reasonable to update the calculation of branch lengths in nextflu to use the branch_length
attribute we export in the auspice JSONs instead of the missing xvalue parameter?
We probably don't want to start exporting a deprecated field just for nextflu and updating the nextflu code would allow all existing datasets to work as they are without regenerating them...
When the "timetree" is off, the d3 x value gets assigned to the xvalue
. So all downstream d3 transformations error out with the NaN x value.
If I assign the d3 x value to node.attr['div']
, this results in a divergence view with no gridlines. From what I can see, the drawGrid()
function only applies to the timetree view. Is this the expected behavior?
Edit: see blab/nextflu#154
