Package Exports

d3-node

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (d3-node) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

D3-Node

Server-side D3 with ease

Why?

Performance: pre-rendering allows offloading data processing, and network overhead
Node.js + npm: take advantage of the entire ecosystem
Static rendering of SVGs

Usage:

var D3Node = require('d3-node');

var d3n = new D3Node(); // initializes D3 with container element

d3n.d3Element.append('span'); // insert span tag

d3n.html() // returns: <html><head></head><body><span></span></body></html>

Setting container & insertion point via selector

var options = {selector: '#chart'}
options.container = '<div id="container"><div id="chart"></div></div>';

var d3n = new D3Node(options); // initializes D3 with container element

d3n.d3Element.append('span'); // insert span tag into #chart

d3n.html() // returns: <html><head></head><body><div id="container"><div id="chart"><span></span></div></div></body></html>

SVG creation

var d3n = new D3Node(); // initializes D3 with container element

d3n.createSVG().append('g');  // create SVG w/ 'g' tag

d3n.svgString() // returns: <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g></g></svg>
