scatter-plot-d3
Package for Easily Generating Scatter Plots & Line Graphs using D3
Basic Usage:
-
npm install -S scatter-plot-d3
-
import in code
import 'd3Scatter from 'scatter-plot-d3'
-
Add canvas element to html page (d3Canvas is the default id expected)
<div id='#d3Canvas' />
-
Call addScatter
const data_example = [{country: 'USA', gdp: 20.8, population: 331}, {country: 'China', gdp: 14.9, population: 1406}, {country: 'Japan', gdp: 4.9, population: 126}, {country: 'Germany', gdp: 3.8, population: 83}, {country: 'France', gdp: 2.6, population: 67}]
d3Scatter.addScatter({data: data, xCol: 'gdp', yCol: 'population'})
Options:
-
specify canvas size (defaults to 900 x 600)
- (automatically adjusts size to fit canvas)
d3Scatter({data: data, xCol: 'population', yCol: 'gdp', canvasHeight: 500, canvasWidth: 800})
-
add line / curve
d3Scatter({data: data, line: true})
d3Scatter({data: data, curve: true})
-
specify axis labels
- (automatically adjusts size to fit canvas)
d3Scatter({data: data, xCol: 'population', yCol: 'gdp', xaxis: 'population (in Millions)', yaxis: 'GDP ($USD in millions)'})
-
specify scale
- (overrides auto-scaling that fits plot to canvas size)
d3Scatter({data: data, scale: 0.2})
-
check default settings
var defaults = d3Scatter.checkDefaults()
- this allows you to check values like 'scale', 'maxValue' etc. if you have customized the canvas size and/or scaling
var defaults = d3Scatter.checkDefaults({data: data, scale: 10, canvasHeight: 500, canvasWidth: 800})
-
embed data table in page
- add empty element in html
<div#embedDataHere />
d3Scatter.addScatter({data: data, embedData: "embedDataHere"})
