Add d3.compose and dependencies to your html:
<!doctype html> <html> <head> <!-- ... --> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="d3.compose.css"> </head> <body> <!-- ... --> <script src="d3.js"></script> <script src="d3.chart.js"></script> <script src="d3.compose.js"></script> <!-- Your code --> </body> </html>

Create your first chart
var chart = d3.select('#chart') .chart('Compose', function(data) { var scales = { x: {type: 'ordinal', data: data, key: 'x'}, y: {data: data, key: 'y'} }; var charts = [ d3c.lines({ data: data, xScale: scales.x, yScale: scales.y }) ]; var yAxis = d3c.axis({scale: scales.y}); return [ [yAxis, d3c.layered(charts)] ]; }) .width(600) .height(400); chart.draw([{x: 0, y: 10}, {x: 10, y: 50}, {x: 20, y: 30}]);
Examples and Docs
See http://CSNW.github.io/d3.compose/ for live examples and docs.
Development
- Install modules
npm install
- Test with
npm test
ornpm run test:watch
- Build with
npm run build
Note on testing: Requires Node 4+ (for latest jsdom) and d3.chart doesn't currently support running from within node
and requires the following line be added inside the IIFE in node_modules/d3.chart.js
: window = this;
(before use strict
). This will be resolved by a pending PR to fix this issue with d3.chart (also, the dependency on d3.chart is likely to be removed in a later version of d3.compose).
Release

Note: For faster iteration, create a separate clone, switch to gh-pages

), and then run steps 3-6.
