I've followed the tutorial to make a bar chart from Scott Murray from alignedleft. I'm having problem with my dataset and adding the dataset to a bar as text.
The image below: 1 bar chart: from the tutorial , 2nd bar chart: how I want to display the text.
Here's my code so far:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Tutorial d3 bar chart!</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="d3/d3.v3.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
//Width and height
var w = 500;
var h = 100;
var i = 0;
var barPadding = 1;
var dataset = [
{key:"Department1", value:6234490},
{key:"Department 2", value:9700},
{key:"Department 3", value:2954},
];
//Width and height
var w = 500;
var h = 100;
var barPadding = 1;
//Create SVG element
var svg = d3.select("body")
.append("svg")
.attr("width", w)
.attr("height", h);
svg.selectAll("rect")
.data(dataset)
.enter()
.append("rect")
.attr("x", function(d, i) {
return i * (w / dataset.length);
})
.attr("y", function(d) {
return h - (d * 4);
})
.attr("width", w / dataset.length - barPadding)
.attr("height", function(d) {
return d * 4;
})
.attr("fill", function(d) {
return "rgb(0, 0, " + (d * 10) + ")";
});
svg.selectAll("text")
.data(dataset)
.enter()
.append("text")
.text(function(d) {
for(int i = 0; i < dataset.length; i++){
return d[i].key;
}
})
.attr("text-anchor", "middle")
.attr("x", function(d, i) {
return i * (w / dataset.length) + (w / dataset.length - barPadding) / 2;
})
.attr("y", function(d) {
return h - (d * 4) + 14;
})
.attr("font-family", "sans-serif")
.attr("font-size", "11px")
.attr("fill", "white");
</script>
</body>
</html>
I've tried to add the text in this part:
svg.selectAll("text")
.data(dataset)
.enter()
.append("text")
.text(function(d) {
for(int i = 0; i < dataset.length; i++){
return d[i].key;
}
})
But that just gives me this error:
I hope you guys can help me out.

Reset to default 3Try changing int to var, int doesn't exist in javascript.
Every function in d3js provides access to data and the index. Just use this
svg.selectAll("text")
.data(dataset)
.enter()
.append("text")
.text(function(d){return d.key;}
})
EDIT
svg.selectAll("g")
.data(dataset)
.enter()
.append("g")
.append("rect")
.attr("x", function(d, i) {
return i * (w / dataset.length);
})
.attr("y", function(d) {
return h - (d * 4);
})
.attr("width", w / dataset.length - barPadding)
.attr("height", function(d) {
return d * 4;
})
.attr("fill", function(d) {
return "rgb(0, 0, " + (d * 10) + ")";
})
.append("text")
.text(function(d) {
return d.key;
})
.attr("text-anchor", "middle")
.attr("x", function(d, i) {
return i * (w / dataset.length) + (w / dataset.length - barPadding) / 2;
})
.attr("y", function(d) {
return h - (d * 4) + 14;
})
.attr("font-family", "sans-serif")
.attr("font-size", "11px")
.attr("fill", "white");
