Adding labels outside d3 pie chart not working

I am trying to add labels in a d3 pie as displayed at http://bl.ocks.org/dbuezas/9306799 but it is always displays the labels inside the slices.
var dataset = ${pieList};
var width = 700,
height = 700,
outerRadius = Math.min(width, height) / 2,
innerRadius = outerRadius * .999,
innerRadiusFinal = outerRadius * .5,
innerRadiusFinal3 = outerRadius * .45,
color = d3.scale.category20()
;
var vis = d3.select("#pieChart")
.append("svg:svg")
.data([dataset])
.attr("width", width)
.attr("height", height)
.append("svg:g")
.attr("transform", "translate(" + outerRadius + "," + outerRadius + ")")
;
var arc = d3.svg.arc()
.outerRadius(outerRadius).innerRadius(innerRadius);
var arcFinal = d3.svg.arc().innerRadius(innerRadiusFinal).outerRadius(outerRadius);
var arcFinal3 = d3.svg.arc().innerRadius(innerRadiusFinal3).outerRadius(outerRadius);
var pie = d3.layout.pie()
.value(function (d) {
return d.measure;
});
var arcs = vis.selectAll("g.slice")
.data(pie)
.enter()
.append("svg:g")
.attr("class", "slice")
.on("mouseover", mouseover)
.on("mouseout", mouseout)
.on("click", up)
;
arcs.append("svg:path")
.attr("fill", function (d, i) {
return color(i);
})
.attr("d", arc)
.append("svg:title")
.text(function (d) {
return d.data.category + ": " + formatAsPercentage(d.data.measure);
});
d3.selectAll("g.slice").selectAll("path").transition()
.duration(750)
.delay(10)
.attr("d", arcFinal)
;
arcs.filter(function (d) {
return d.endAngle - d.startAngle > .2;
})
.append("svg:text")
.attr("dy", ".35em")
.attr("text-anchor", "middle")
.attr("transform", function (d) {
return "translate(" + arcFinal.centroid(d) + ")rotate(" + angle(d) + ")";
})
.text(function (d) {
return d.data.category;
})
;
.attr("transform", function (d) {
return "translate(" + arcFinal.centroid(d)
+ ")rotate(" + angle(d)
+ ")translate(" + 700 + ",0)";
})
function angle(d) {
var a = (d.startAngle + d.endAngle) * 90 / Math.PI - 90;
return a > 90 ? a - 180 : a;
}
// Pie chart title
vis.append("svg:text")
.attr("dy", ".35em")
.attr("text-anchor", "middle")
.text("Attendance report 2015")
.attr("class", "title")
;
function mouseover() {
d3.select(this).select("path").transition()
.duration(750)
//.attr("stroke","red")
//.attr("stroke-width", 1.5)
.attr("d", arcFinal3)
;
}
function mouseout() {
d3.select(this).select("path").transition()
.duration(750)
//.attr("stroke","blue")
//.attr("stroke-width", 1.5)
.attr("d", arcFinal)
;
}
function up(d, i) {
/* update bar chart when user selects piece of the pie chart */
//updateBarChart(dataset[i].category);
updateBarChart(d.data.category, color(i));
updateLineChart(d.data.category, color(i));
}
I want to display the labels outside of the pie slices but it always display inside the slices.

One option would be to translate your text outward by the radius of the pie, which might be easiest to do after the rotate. So, something like:
.attr("transform", function (d) {
return "translate(" + arcFinal.centroid(d)
+ ")rotate(" + angle(d)
+ ")translate(" + radius + ",0)";
})
Where radius is the radius of your pie chart. Sometimes you might want to translate a few pixels further, so that you have a margin between the chart and the label.
This is certainly not the only answer, here are some more issues to watch out for though:
Rotating your text can end up with it being upside down on one side of the graph, which is not very readable.
After fixing the rotation issue, you might find that your label's textanchor causes long labels to go over the graph anyway.
If your pie slices are thin, you can end up writing labels over one another.

Donut chart d3.js

I try to modify this example. I would like to create two data arrays and merge them using special mergingAr() function instead of data.csv. But it does not work. There is one-colour chart without any data. I can`t find the problem place in the code. So, here it is:
var width = 250,
height = 250,
radius = 230;
var arr1 = [44, 64]; //age
var arr2 = [14106543, 8819342]; //population
function type(d) {
d[1] = +d[1];
return d;
}
function mergingAr(array1, array2)
{
var i, out = [];
for(i=0;i<array1.length;i++)
{
out.push([array1[i],array2[i]]);
}
return out;
}
var data = mergingAr(arr1, arr2);
var color = d3.scale.ordinal()
.range(["#EB7221", "#8a89a6", "#7b6888", "#6b486b", "#a05d56", "#d0743c", "#ff8c00"]);
var arc = d3.svg.arc()
.outerRadius(radius - 100)
.innerRadius(radius - 180);
var pie = d3.layout.pie()
.sort(null)
.value(function(d) { return d[1]; });
var svg = d3.select("#pie").append("svg")
.attr("width", width)
.attr("height", height)
.append("g")
.attr("transform", "translate(" + width / 2 + "," + height / 2 + ")");
var g = svg.selectAll(".arc")
.data(pie(data))
.enter().append("g")
.attr("class", "arc");
g.append("path")
.attr("d", arc)
.style("fill", function(d) { return color(d[0]); });
g.append("text")
.attr("transform", function(d) { return "translate(" + arc.centroid(d) + ")"; })
.attr("dy", ".35em")
.style("text-anchor", "middle")
.text(function(d) { return d[0]; });
var legend = svg.selectAll(".legend")
.data(color.domain())
.enter().append("g")
.attr("class", "legend")
.attr("transform", function(d, i) { return "translate(0," + i * 20 + ")"; });
legend.append("rect")
.attr("x", width - 18)
.attr("width", 18)
.attr("height", 18)
.style("fill", color);
legend.append("text")
.attr("x", width - 24)
.attr("y", 9)
.attr("dy", ".35em")
.style("text-anchor", "end")
.text(function(d) { return d; });
Thanks all for help!

Your data is there, but your color is wrong. Right now, you have this line setting path color:
.style("fill", function(d) { return color(d[0]); });
The problem is that your data is an object, not an array. (It's transformed by the pie function), so you need to reference the data attribute on the object, and then get the zero index of that array, like so:
.style("fill", function(d) { return color(d.data[0]); });

Align text to the right

I am trying to set up a horizontal bar chart with d3js. I'd like to add a custom legend on the y-axis with text labels. These labels are of different sizes so I'd like to align them to the right.
I have tried the following way but it is not working:
d3.csv("./top_sources.csv", function(error, data) {
data.forEach(function(d) {
d.value = +d.value;
});
var x = d3.scale.linear()
.range([0, 0.8 * width]);
x.domain([0, d3.max(data, function(d) { return d.value; })]);
svg.append("g")
.attr("class", "x axis")
.attr("transform", "translate(0," + height + ")")
.call(xAxis);
svg.selectAll(".bar")
.data(data)
.enter().append("rect")
.attr("class", "bar")
.attr("transform", function(d, i) { var ypos = height - (i-1) * barHeight ; return "translate(" + 0.2 * width + "," + ypos + ")"; })
.attr("width", function(d) { return 0; })
.attr("height", barHeight - 1)
.style("fill", function(d) { return color(d.name); });
svg.selectAll(".bar")
.data(data)
.transition()
.duration(1000)
.attr("width", function(d) { return x(d.value); });
svg.selectAll(".legend")
.data(data)
.enter()
.append("text")
.attr("class", ".legend")
.attr("width", function(d) { return d.key.length; })
.attr("x", function(d) { return 100 - d.key.length; })
.attr("y", barHeight / 2)
.attr("transform", function(d, i) { var ypos = height - (i-1) * barHeight ; return "translate(0," + ypos + ")"; })
.text(function(d) { return d.key; });
});
I guess I have to get the label length and substract it to a custom value (I used 100 here) but I cant manage to do this properly.
How can I make this work?
Thanks

Add legend to d3 scatterplot matrix

I'm trying to add a legend to a d3 scatterplot matrix (using this example as a template: http://bl.ocks.org/mbostock/4063663), and while the scatterplot itself is displaying as expected, I have been unable to successfully add a legend. The code for the plot and one of the attempts at adding a legend are below:

.scale(x)
.orient("bottom")
.ticks(5);
var yAxis = d3.svg.axis()
.scale(y)
.orient("left")
.ticks(5);
var color = d3.scale.category10();
d3.csv(datafilename, function(error, dataset) {
var domainByTrait = {},
traits = d3.keys(dataset[0]).filter(function(d) { return d !== "class"; }),
n = traits.length;
traits.forEach(function(trait) {
domainByTrait[trait] = d3.extent(dataset, function(d) { return d[trait]; });

});
}
// If the brush is empty, select all circles.
function brushend() {

}
function cross(a, b) {
var c = [], n = a.length, m = b.length, i, j;
for (i = -1; ++i < n;) for (j = -1; ++j < m;) c.push({x: a[i], i: i, y: b[j], j: j});

d3.select(self.frameElement).style("height", size * n + padding + 20 + "px");
// add legend
var legend = svg.append("g")
.attr("class", "legend")
.attr("height", 100)

});
Among my other unsuccessful attempts at adding a legend are
var legend = svg.selectAll("g")
.data(dataset)
.enter().append("g")
.attr("class", "legend")
.attr("transform", function(d, i) { return "translate(0," + i * 20 + ")"; });
legend.append("rect")
.attr("x", width - 28)
.attr("width", 18)
.attr("height", 18)
.style("fill", function(d) { return color(d.class); });
legend.append("text")
.attr("x", width - 34)
.attr("y", 9)
.attr("dy", ".35em")
.style("text-anchor", "end")
.text(function(d) { return d.class; });
and
var legend = svg.selectAll('g').data(dataset)
.enter()
.append('g')
.attr("class", "legend");
legend.append("rect")
.attr("x", width - 45)
.attr("y", 25)
.attr("height", 50)
.attr("width", 50)
.each(function(d, i) {
var g = d3.select(this);
g.append("rect")
.attr("x", width - 65)
.attr("y", i*25)
.attr("width", 10)
.attr("height", 10)
.style("fill", function(d) { return color(d.class); });
g.append("text")
.attr("x", width - 50)
.attr("y", i * 25 + 8)
.attr("height",30)
.attr("width",100)
.style("fill", function(d) { return color(d.class); })
.text(function(d) { return d.class; });
all based on examples I've found on the web. None of these approaches seem to be working - I must be missing something here. Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

The problem is right at the beginning:
var legend = svg.selectAll('g').data(dataset)
.enter()
.append('g')
.attr("class", "legend");
The selectAll('g') is going to select one of the groups already in your diagram, and then nothing will happen because enter() indicates that everything from there on (including the value that gets saved to the legend variable) only applies to groups that don't exist yet.
I'm pretty sure this legend code is supposed to be run from within its own <g> element. That way, it won't interfere with the rest of your graph.
var legendGroup = svg.append('g')
.attr('class', 'legend')
.attr('transform', /* translate as appropriate */);
var legendEntry = legendGroup.selectAll('g')
.data(dataset);
//create one legend entry for each series in the dataset array
//if that's not what you want, create an array that has one
//value for every entry you want in the legend
legendEntry.enter().append("g")
.attr("class", "legend-entry")
.attr("transform", function(d, i) { return "translate(0," + i * 20 + ")"; });
//shift each entry down by approx 1 line (20px)
legendEntry.append("rect") //add a square to each entry
/* and so on */

D3 Donut chart: Display Value on segment hover

Long time lurker 1st time poster. I am trying to display the text value form a CSV file when the relevant segment of pie chart is hovered over. I have the pie chart (thanks to Mike Bostock) and the display when hovering but cant remove it on the mouse out. Any help would be greatly appreciated at this stage.
var width = 960,
height = 600,
radius = Math.min(width, height) / 2.5;
var arc = d3.svg.arc()
.outerRadius(radius + 10)
.innerRadius(radius - 70);
var svg = d3.select("body").append("svg")
.attr("width", width)
.attr("height", height)
.append("g")
.attr("transform", "translate(" + width / 2 + "," + height / 2 + ")");
var color = d3.scale.ordinal()
.range(["#0bd0d2", "#8a89a6", "#7b6888", "#6b486b", "#a05d56", "#d0743c", "#ff8c00"]);
var pie = d3.layout.pie()
.sort(null)
.value(function(d) { return d.Total; });
var pieSlice = svg.selectAll("g.slice");
d3.csv("childcare.csv", function(error, data) {
data.forEach(function(d) {
d.population = +d.population;
});
var arcs = svg.selectAll("g.slice")
.data(pie(data))
.enter()
.append("g")
.attr("class", "arc")
arcs.append("path")
.attr("d", arc)
.style("fill", function(d) { return color(d.data.place); })
.on("mouseenter", function(d) {
//console.log("mousein")
arcs.append("text")
.attr("transform", arc.centroid(d))
.attr("dy", ".5em")
.style("text-anchor", "middle")
.style("fill", "blue")
.attr("class", "on")
.text(d.data.place);
})
.on("mouseout", function(d) {
console.log("mouseout")
});
});

You can just save your text and remove it on mouseout:
var text;
var arcs = svg.selectAll("g.slice")
.data(pie(data))
.enter()
.append("g")
.attr("class", "arc")
arcs.append("path")
.attr("d", arc)
.style("fill", function(d) { return color(d.data.place); })
.on("mouseenter", function(d) {
//console.log("mousein")
text = arcs.append("text")
.attr("transform", arc.centroid(d))
.attr("dy", ".5em")
.style("text-anchor", "middle")
.style("fill", "blue")
.attr("class", "on")
.text(d.data.place);
})
.on("mouseout", function(d) {
text.remove();
});
