Javascript d3 pie chart doesn't pull data from JSON file with list of dictionaries

I have a .json file with data, and I'd like to make a d3 donut (pie) chart from it. I'm not especially fluent in javascript, and every example I can find either pulls from inline json data or the json file is structured differently than mine (mine is a list of dictionaries; theirs are often single dictionaries). I've been troubleshooting for a few days, and somehow can't land on anything that actually works. Any thoughts/tips?
The example at https://www.d3-graph-gallery.com/graph/donut_label.html uses inline json data to render a donut chart with labels. I've attempted to modify it that code by:
pulling json data from /data/all-facet-digitized.json
pull labels each dictionary's "facet" key ("true" and "false"), and values from each dictionary's "count" key (373977 and 55433).
change the color scale domain to match the facet keys ("true" and "false")
/data/all-facet-digitized.json looks like:
[
{
"count": "55433",
"facet": "true"
},
{
"count": "373977",
"facet": "false"
}
]
Code in the of my html file looks like:
<div id="chart"></div> <!-- div containing the donut chart -->
<script src="//d3js.org/d3.v4.min.js"></script>
<script>
// set the dimensions and margins of the graph
var width = 450
height = 450
margin = 40
// The radius of the pieplot is half the width or half the height (smallest one) minus margin.
var radius = Math.min(width, height) / 2 - margin
// append the svg object to the div called 'chart'
var svg = d3.select("#chart")
.append("svg")
.attr("width", width)
.attr("height", height)
.append("g")
.attr("transform", "translate(" + width / 2 + "," + height / 2 + ")");
// Parse the Data
d3.json("/data/all-facet-digitized.json", function(data) {
// set the color scale
var color = d3.scaleOrdinal()
.domain(["true","false"])
.range(d3.schemeDark2);
// Compute the position of each group on the pie:
var pie = d3.pie()
.sort(null) // Do not sort group by size
.value(function(d) {return d.count; })
var data_ready = pie(d3.entries(data))
// The arc generator
var arc = d3.arc()
.innerRadius(radius * 0.5) // This is the size of the donut hole
.outerRadius(radius * 0.8)
// Another arc that won't be drawn. Just for labels positioning
var outerArc = d3.arc()
.innerRadius(radius * 0.9)
.outerRadius(radius * 0.9)
// Build the pie chart: Basically, each part of the pie is a path that we build using the arc function.
svg
.selectAll('allSlices')
.data(data_ready)
.enter()
.append('path')
.attr('d', arc)
.attr('fill', function(d){ return(color(d.facet)) })
.attr("stroke", "white")
.style("stroke-width", "2px")
.style("opacity", 0.7)
// Add the polylines between chart and labels:
svg
.selectAll('allPolylines')
.data(data_ready)
.enter()
.append('polyline')
.attr("stroke", "black")
.style("fill", "none")
.attr("stroke-width", 1)
.attr('points', function(d) {
var posA = arc.centroid(d) // line insertion in the slice
var posB = outerArc.centroid(d) // line break: we use the other arc generator that has been built only for that
var posC = outerArc.centroid(d); // Label position = almost the same as posB
var midangle = d.startAngle + (d.endAngle - d.startAngle) / 2 // we need the angle to see if the X position will be at the extreme right or extreme left
posC[0] = radius * 0.95 * (midangle < Math.PI ? 1 : -1); // multiply by 1 or -1 to put it on the right or on the left
return [posA, posB, posC]
})
// Add the polylines between chart and labels:
svg
.selectAll('allLabels')
.data(data_ready)
.enter()
.append('text')
.text( function(d) { console.log(d.facet) ; return d.facet} )
.attr('transform', function(d) {
var pos = outerArc.centroid(d);
var midangle = d.startAngle + (d.endAngle - d.startAngle) / 2
pos[0] = radius * 0.99 * (midangle < Math.PI ? 1 : -1);
return 'translate(' + pos + ')';
})
.style('text-anchor', function(d) {
var midangle = d.startAngle + (d.endAngle - d.startAngle) / 2
return (midangle < Math.PI ? 'start' : 'end')
})
})
</script>
My result renders as an empty space:
<div id="chart">
<svg width="450" height="450">
<g transform="translate(225,225)"></g>
</svg>
</div>

The schemeDark2 doens't exist in d3 v4. I've replaced it with schemeCategory10:
var color = d3.scaleOrdinal()
.domain(["true","false"])
.range(d3.schemeCategory10);
Since you have an array of objects, you don't need d3.entries. That takes an object and converts it to an array where each key is an item of the array. But since you already have an array here, you can put it directly in pie():
// Compute the position of each group on the pie:
var pie = d3.pie()
.sort(null) // Do not sort group by size
.value(function(d) {return d.count; })
var data_ready = pie(data)
Now that you've got the data, you can access it on any of the functions: try putting console.log(data_ready) to see what's available. You'll see that the data is bound for each object as the .data property. pie() takes an array and puts it in a format that's convenient to make pie charts with.
Say we want to access the facet property: we would access that as item.data.facet. So in your functions, to access, you can do:
svg
.selectAll('allSlices')
.data(data_ready)
.enter()
.append('path')
.attr('d', arc)
.attr('fill', function(d){ return(color(d.data.facet)) })

// The radius of the pieplot is half the width or half the height (smallest one) minus margin.
var radius = Math.min(width, height) / 2 - margin
// append the svg object to the div called 'chart'
var svg = d3.select("#chart")
.append("svg")
.attr("width", width)
.attr("height", height)
.append("g")
.attr("transform", "translate(" + width / 2 + "," + height / 2 + ")");

var posB = outerArc.centroid(d) // line break: we use the other arc generator that has been built only for that
var posC = outerArc.centroid(d); // Label position = almost the same as posB
var midangle = d.startAngle + (d.endAngle - d.startAngle) / 2 // we need the angle to see if the X position will be at the extreme right or extreme left
posC[0] = radius * 0.95 * (midangle < Math.PI ? 1 : -1); // multiply by 1 or -1 to put it on the right or on the left
return [posA, posB, posC]
})
// Add the polylines between chart and labels:

var midangle = d.startAngle + (d.endAngle - d.startAngle) / 2
pos[0] = radius * 0.99 * (midangle < Math.PI ? 1 : -1);
return 'translate(' + pos + ')';
})
.style('text-anchor', function(d) {
var midangle = d.startAngle + (d.endAngle - d.startAngle) / 2
return (midangle < Math.PI ? 'start' : 'end')
})
</script>

Ok, the issues here is that you've completely missed how data_ready is structured after converting the JSON response. You might want to add console.log(data_ready) just after you set data_ready and inspect it in the console for better understanding of the following fixes.
First a color fix:
.attr('fill', function(d){ return(color(d.data.value.facet)) })
Then a data fix:
.value(function(d) {return d.value.count; })
And lastly a label fix:
.text( function(d) { console.log(d.data.key) ; return d.data.value.facet } )
Your script should look like this:
// set the dimensions and margins of the graph
var width = 450
height = 450
margin = 40
// The radius of the pieplot is half the width or half the height (smallest one). I subtract a bit of margin.
var radius = Math.min(width, height) / 2 - margin
// append the svg object to the div called 'my_dataviz'
var svg = d3.select("#chart")
.append("svg")
.attr("width", width)
.attr("height", height)
.append("g")
.attr("transform", "translate(" + width / 2 + "," + height / 2 + ")");

d3.js realtime line chart with circle

I'm trying to make a d3 realtime line chart with circle at the data point.
However, circles are gathered on the left side and it is not given to the data point.
This method is fine for static data to show circles with line chart.
chart.append('circle')
.data(data)
.attr('class', 'ciecle')
.attr("cy", line.x())
.attr("cy", line.y())
.attr("r", 5)
.attr("fill", 'blue');
However, it does not work with dynamically increasing data.
I want to move the circles with realtime line chat.
The follow code was forked from this URL
http://bl.ocks.org/KevinGutowski/131809cc7bcd1d37e10ca37b89da9630
Would you please let me how to change the code?
<svg id="chart"></svg>
<script src="http://d3js.org/d3.v4.min.js"></script>
<script>
var data = [];
var width = 500;
var height = 500;
var globalX = 0;
var duration = 100;
var max = 500;
var step = 10;
var chart = d3.select('#chart')
.attr('width', width + 50)
.attr('height', height + 50);
var x = d3.scaleLinear().domain([0, 500]).range([0, 500]);
var y = d3.scaleLinear().domain([0, 500]).range([500, 0]);
// -----------------------------------
var line = d3.line()
.x(function(d){ return x(d.x); })
.y(function(d){ return y(d.y); });
var smoothLine = d3.line().curve(d3.curveCardinal)
.x(function(d){ return x(d.x); })
.y(function(d){ return y(d.y); });
// -----------------------------------
// Draw the axis
var xAxis = d3.axisBottom().scale(x);
var axisX = chart.append('g').attr('class', 'x axis')
.attr('transform', 'translate(0, 500)')
.call(xAxis);
var path = chart.append('path');
var circle = chart.append('circle');
// Main loop
function tick() {
// Generate new data
var point = {
x: globalX,
y: ((Math.random() * 450 + 50) >> 0)
};
data.push(point);
globalX += step;
// Draw new line
path.datum(data)
.attr('class', 'smoothline')
.attr('d', smoothLine);
// Append circles. 　It should given to data point
chart.append('circle')
.data(data)
.attr('class', 'ciecle')
.attr("cy", line.x())
.attr("cy", line.y())
.attr("r", 5)
.attr("fill", 'blue');
// Shift the chart left
x.domain([globalX - (max - step), globalX]);
axisX.transition()
.duration(duration)
.ease(d3.easeLinear,.1)
.call(xAxis);
path.attr('transform', null)
.transition()
.duration(duration)
.ease(d3.easeLinear,.1)
.attr('transform', 'translate(' + x(globalX - max) + ')');
//move with line
circle.attr('transform', null)
.transition()
.duration(duration)
.ease(d3.easeLinear,.1)
.attr('transform', 'translate(' + x(globalX - max) + ')')
.on('end', tick);
// Remote old data (max 50 points)
if (data.length > 50) data.shift();
}
tick();
</script>

The coordinates of the path get repeatedly updated in the tick function (which repeatedly calls itself) using path.datum(data). You also need to update the locations of the circles on each tick using the adjusted (shifted) scale, which gets changed here:
x.domain([globalX - (max - step), globalX]);
To make the transitions smooth, you also need to update the transforms in each tick. You could update it for each circle and the path itself individually, but I just put both in a group (<g>) element and animate the whole group. Here's a working example:

Add border-radius property to D3js Donut Chart

I have this donut chart currently working in an AngularJS app:
But the design mockup says we would like this, note the border-radius property on the green portion of the arc:
How do I add a border-radius to the SVG that d3js outputs, the code I'm currently using looks like this:
let data = [
{
label: 'Data',
count: scope.data
},
{
label: 'Fill',
count: 100 - scope.data
}
];
let width = 60;
let height = 60;
let radius = Math.min(width, height) / 2;
let color = d3.scale
.ordinal()
.range(['#3CC692', '#F3F3F4']);
let selector = '#donut-asset-' + scope.chartId;
d3
.select(selector)
.selectAll('*')
.remove();
let svg = d3
.selectAll(selector)
.append('svg')
.attr('width', width)
.attr('height', height)
.append('g')
.attr(
'transform',
'translate(' + width / 2 + ',' + height / 2 + ')'
);
let arc = d3.svg
.arc()
.innerRadius(23)
.outerRadius(radius);
let pie = d3.layout
.pie()
.value(function(d) {
return d.count;
})
.sort(null);
let path = svg
.selectAll('path')
.data(pie(data))
.enter()
.append('path')
.attr('d', arc)
.attr('fill', function(d, i) {
return color(d.data.label);
});
let legend = svg
.selectAll('.legend')
.data(data)
.enter()
.append('g')
.attr('class', 'legend')
.attr('transform', function(d, i) {
return 'translate(' + 0 + ',' + 0 + ')';
});
legend
.append('text')
.attr('x', 1)
.attr('y', 1)
.attr('text-anchor', 'middle')
.attr('dominant-baseline', 'central')
.text(function(d) {
return d.count + '%';
});
};
I know to use cornerRadius but when I do it sets a radius for both arcs, it just needs to exist on the colored one. Any ideas? Thanks in advance for any help!

You can apply a corner radius to a d3 arc which allows rounding on the corners:
let arc = d3.svg
.arc()
.innerRadius(23)
.outerRadius(radius)
.cornerRadius(10);
But, the downside is that all arcs' borders are rounded:
If you apply the cornerRadius to only the darkened arc - the other arc won't fill in the background behind the rounded corners. Instead, we could append a circular arc (full donut) and place the darkened arc on top with rounding (my example doesn't adapt your code, just shows how that it can be done, also with d3v4 which uses d3.arc() rather than d3.svg.arc() ):
var backgroundArc = d3.arc()
.innerRadius(30)
.outerRadius(50)
.startAngle(0)
.endAngle(Math.PI*2);
var mainArc = d3.arc()
.innerRadius(30)
.outerRadius(50)
.cornerRadius(10)
.startAngle(0)
.endAngle(function(d) { return d/100*Math.PI* 2 });
var data = [10,20,30,40,50] // percents.
var svg = d3.select("body").append("svg")
.attr("width", 600)
.attr("height", 200);
var charts = svg.selectAll("g")
.data(data)
.enter()
.append("g")
.attr("transform",function(d,i) {
return "translate("+(i*100+50)+",100)";
});
charts.append("path")
.attr("d", backgroundArc)
.attr("fill","#ccc")
charts.append("path")
.attr("d", mainArc)
.attr("fill","orange")
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/d3/4.10.0/d3.min.js"></script>

Try playing with stroke attributes like:
stroke
stroke-dasharray
stroke-dashoffset
stroke-linecap
stroke-linejoin
stroke-miterlimit
stroke-opacity
stroke-width
And set width of bar to lower values, or 0.
Reference: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Attribute
But the better way is to make charts on canvas, because you can draw everything you want. Or to use an library.

Creating a rectangle chart with D3.js

I am trying to make a d3 javascript that creates a rectangle whose color depends on a data set. All of the rectangles are adjacent to each other like:
[][][][][][]
[][][][][][]
I got my script to work to create rectangles for all of my data, but it overflows like:
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
How can I create width and height properties for my d3 script so it looks more like
[][][][]
[][][][]
[][][][]
Here is my script:
<script>
//for whatever data set
var data = [];
//Make an SVG Container
var svgContainer = d3.select("body").selectAll("svg")
.data(data)
.enter().append("svg")
.attr("width", 38)
.attr("height", 25);
//Draw the rectangle
var rectangle = svgContainer.append("rect")
.attr("x", 0)
.attr("y", 5)
.attr("width", 38)
.attr("height", 25);
</script>

You have to change the x and y properties.
.attr("x", function(d, i) {
return 5 + (i%itemPerLine) * widthRect;
})
.attr("y", function(d, i) {
return 5 + Math.floor(i/itemPerLine) * heightRect;
})
(itemPerLine is the number of rect per line)
See this fiddle as example

Adding Legend on a basic chart

I am brand new to d3.js and stackoverflow so please pardon if I ask something very basic. I have a basic donut chart however it is a modification of a normal donut chart since you can see there is one on top of another. I was wondering if it is possible to add a label right on the chart. I am able to add legend and label outside the chart but i want to be able to add a label right on the chart itself.
This is the code for chart
var dataset = {
data1: [53245, 28479, 19697, 24037, 40245],
data2: [53245, 28479, 19697, 24037, 40245]
};
var width = 460,
height = 300,
cwidth = 45;
var color = d3.scale.category20();
var pie = d3.layout.pie()
.sort(null);
var arc = d3.svg.arc();
var svg = d3.select("body").append("svg")
.attr("width", width)
.attr("height", height)
.append("g")
.attr("transform", "translate(" + width / 2 + "," + height / 2 + ")");
var gs = svg.selectAll("g").data(d3.values(dataset)).enter().append("g");
var path = gs.selectAll("path")
.data(function(d) { return pie(d); })
.enter().append("path")
.attr("fill", function(d, i) { return color(i); })
.attr("d", function(d, i, j) { return arc.innerRadius(10+cwidth*j).outerRadius(cwidth*(j+1))(d); });
This is the FIDDLE. I would highly be pleased with any suggestions to be able to add label and legend. I would want label to be on top of both the charts in the fiddle.

Is this what you're looking for? Fiddle.
Essentially what this does is append a text element which is positioned using the angle of the path element.
var angle = d.endAngle - d.startAngle;
var loc = d.startAngle - (Math.PI/2) + (angle/2);
return Math.sin(loc) * radius;
If you want the labels on the left side to not overlap onto the chart you could use something similar to the following
var textLength = [];
gEnter.selectAll("text").each(function () {
textLength.push(this.getComputedTextLength());
});
To get the lengths of the text objects, then you can modify either .attr("x", ...) or .attr("transform", "translate(x,0)") when d.startAngle is greater than PI (meaning that it is on the left side of the chart), subtracting the text length from the x element to position it further left.
