d3 bar chart with custom x axis and bar width

I want to create a bar chart with custom bar width I tried following code but not aware if its the right way to do.
Also I want to update the bar chart with new data how can I do it?
TO update I tried - https://jsfiddle.net/eqr8deef/
var margin = {
top: 25,
right: 40,
bottom: 35,
left: 85
},
w = 500 - margin.left - margin.right,
h = 350 - margin.top - margin.bottom;
var padding = 10;
var colors = {
0: ["Local", "#377EB8"],
1: ["Global", "#4DAF4A"]
};
var dataset = [{
"global": 1468604556084,

"local": 11500,
"global": 1013048950629
}];
var xScale = d3.scale.ordinal()
.domain(d3.range(dataset.length))
.rangeRoundBands([0, w], 0.01);
// ternary operator to determine if global or local has a larger scale
var yScale = d3.scale.linear()
.domain([0, d3.max(dataset, function(d) {
return d.local;
})])
.range([h, 0]);
var yAxis = d3.svg.axis()
.scale(yScale)
.orient("left")
.ticks(5);
var commaFormat = d3.format(',');
//SVG element
var svg = d3.select("#searchVolume")
.append("svg")
.attr("width", w + margin.left + margin.right)
.attr("height", h + margin.top + margin.bottom)
.append("g")
.attr("transform", "translate(" + margin.left + "," + margin.top + ")");
// Graph Bars
var sets = svg.selectAll(".set")

To answer your question step by step -
rangeRoundBands is used to evenly space your bars. But if you want to have custom width then you can not use it like the way you are using it.
to update the data you can simply use enter-update-exit methods as shown below.
var update_sel = svg.selectAll("circle").data(data)
update_sel.attr(/* operate on old elements only */)
update_sel.enter().append("circle").attr(/* operate on new elements
only */)
update_sel.attr(/* operate on old and new elements */)
update_sel.exit().remove() /* complete the enter-update-exit pattern
*/
Here is a complete example - https://jsfiddle.net/seej4dfd/
var x = d3.scale.ordinal()
.rangeRoundBands([0, width], .1);
var y = d3.scale.linear()
.range([height, 0]);
var xAxis = d3.svg.axis()
.scale(x)
.orient("bottom");
var yAxis = d3.svg.axis()
.scale(y)
.orient("left")
.ticks(10, "%");
var svg = d3.select("body").append("svg")
.attr("width", width + margin.left + margin.right)
.attr("height", height + margin.top + margin.bottom)
.append("g")
.attr("transform", "translate(" + margin.left + "," + margin.top + ")");
svg.append("g")
.attr("class", "x axis")
.attr("transform", "translate(0," + height + ")")
function draw(data) {
x.domain(data.map(function(d) {
return d.letter;
}));
y.domain([0, d3.max(data, function(d) {
return d.frequency;
})]);
var labels = svg
.selectAll(".topLabel")
.data(data, function(d) {
return d.letter;
});
labels
.exit()
.remove();
labels
.enter()
.append("text")
.attr("class", "topLabel")
.attr("text-anchor", "middle")
.attr("fill", "black")
labels
.attr("x", function(d, i) {
return x(d.letter) + 7.5;
})
.attr("y", function(d, i) {
return y(d.frequency);
})
.text(function(d, i) {
return d.letter;
});
var labels = svg
.selectAll(".bartext")
.data(data, function(d) {
return d.letter;
});
labels
.exit()
.remove();
labels
.enter()
.append("text")
.attr("class", "bartext")
.attr("text-anchor", "middle")
.attr("fill", "black");
labels
.attr("x", function(d, i) {
return x(d.letter) + 7.5;
})
.attr("y", function(d, i) {
return height + 15;
})
.text(function(d, i) {
return d.letter;
});
svg.select(".y.axis").transition().duration(300).call(yAxis)
var bars = svg.selectAll(".bar").data(data, function(d) {
return d.letter;
})
bars.exit()
.transition()
.duration(300)
.remove();
bars.enter().append("rect")
.attr("class", "bar");
bars.transition().duration(300).attr("x", function(d) {
return x(d.letter);
})
.attr("width", 15)
.attr("y", function(d) {
return y(d.frequency);
})
.attr("height", function(d) {
return height - y(d.frequency);
});
}

To change the width, use the xScale.rangeBand() for setting the width of your rect on line 73.

One of four bar charts showing up, legend missing D3

UPDATED
Problem
a) Only one of my bar charts is showing after I switched a variable var csvData in my scripts.js to the real data from the dummy data. The previous data referenced states and demographics, which has now been switched to food and their prices.

How to make a horizontal Stacked bar chart with D3

I just started using D3.js, and have been trying to make this stacked bar chart horizontal(link below).
https://github.com/DeBraid/www.cacheflow.ca/blob/master/styles/js/d3kickchart.js
http://cacheflow.ca/blog/index.html (You can find the chart in the middle of the page)
As a result, I completely stacked on the half way... I would greatly appreciate it if anyone gives me some guides to archive this.
Problem Solved:
I found the way to made the virtical bar chart horizontal. Hope this could help someone who are facing same problem.
Below is the fixed code:

how to align y axis label in D3

i am trying to create a stacked bar graph.
however i can't seem to get the alignment right.the graph has two axis.
because of the length of the y axis label it is partially blocked.
i tried solving this by using different CSS styles on the label and on the enclosing div,
but they did not have the desired affect.
i created a jsfidel to explain my case.

i will appreciate any insight you have on this matter.

D3.js with update button adds new data to old instead of replacing old data

I've got an update button working that loads new .csv data into a D3.s stacked bar chart. My problem is that on update it seems to be using both data sets instead of just the new one. I think this is related to some confusion I have about update and selectAll, but I haven't been able to figure out how to replace instead of append. Here's my current code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<style>
body {
font: 10px sans-serif;
}
.axis path,
.axis line {
fill: none;
stroke: #000;
shape-rendering: crispEdges;
}
.bar {
fill: steelblue;
}
.x.axis path {
display: none;
}
</style>
<body>
<!-- <label><input type="checkbox"> Sort values</label> -->
<div id="option">
<input name="updateButton"
type="button"
value="Update"
onclick="updateData()" />
</div>

UPDATE: I changed the functionUpdateData() code to what I have currently because I realized it had some junk in there. New code has working transitions for x and y axis labels, but still the same problem described above with the actual bars.

It is because you are not using update and exiting joins in the update function (read this article carefully http://bost.ocks.org/mike/join/). As far I understand, you want to update the existing csv data with the new one, for that you need to update the current set of data. I'll give you an example with a simpler code:
function updateData() {
//this is the new data that you are binding to some circles on the canvas
var circle = svg.selectAll("circle").data([200, 100, 50,10,5]);
//if there is new data, you get those new circles with the enter() method
var circleEnter = circle.enter().append("circle");
circleEnter.attr("cy", 60);
circleEnter.attr("cx", function(d, i) { return i * 100 + 30; });
circleEnter.attr("r", function(d) { return Math.sqrt(d); });
//------THIS IS THE PART YOU ARE MISSING------
//but the circles that already exist need an update. (check there is no enter() method here)
circle.attr("r", function(d) { return Math.sqrt(d); });
//also you need to remove the circles that don´t have a data binding.
circle.exit().remove();
}
so I think that in your code you have to write something like:
var state = svg.selectAll(".state").data(data);
//the update data
state.attr("transform", function(d) { return "translate(" + x(d.State) + ",0)"; });
