How to use d3.js in a Vue project

This time I will show you how to use d3.js in the Vue project. What are the precautions for using d3.js in the Vue project? The following is a practical case, let's take a look.

Before I wrote a Demo, some things needed to use d3 to achieve some effects, but I couldn’t find a way to use D3.js in Vue when looking for resources in many forums. D3 on npm can be said to be relatively It’s very inhumane and didn’t say anything about how to use D3.js on webpack

Finally, after struggling for a long time, I saw a foreign boss look at his case and successfully implement the use of D3 in the Vue project

First

Install

npm install d3 --save-dev

Just in case, then look at package.json

Installation completed

Before we begin, let's render a Vue component that uses regular D3

DOM manipulationRenders a simple line chart:

<script>
import * as d3 from 'd3';
const data = [99, 71, 78, 25, 36, 92];
export default {
 name: 'non-vue-line-chart',
 template: '<p></p>',
 mounted() {
  const svg = d3.select(this.$el)
   .append('svg')
   .attr('width', 500)
   .attr('height', 270)
   .append('g')
   .attr('transform', 'translate(0, 10)');
  const x = d3.scaleLinear().range([0, 430]);
  const y = d3.scaleLinear().range([210, 0]);
  d3.axisLeft().scale(x);
  d3.axisTop().scale(y);
  x.domain(d3.extent(data, (d, i) => i));
  y.domain([0, d3.max(data, d => d)]);
  const createPath = d3.line()
   .x((d, i) => x(i))
   .y(d => y(d));
  svg.append('path').attr('d', createPath(data));
 },
};
</script>
<style lang="sass">
svg
 margin: 25px;
 path
  fill: none
  stroke: #76BF8A
  stroke-width: 3px
</style>

The code is simple and easy to understand, but this is just A basic example. Because we are not using templates, more complex visualizations that require more operations and calculations would obscure the component's design and logic. Another caveat with the above approach is that we cannot use the scopedCSS property because D3 dynamically adds elements to the DOM.

can be implemented in a weird, but code-elegant way

<template>
 <svg width="500" height="270">
  <g style="transform: translate(0, 10px)">
   <path :d="line" />
  </g>
 </svg>
</template>
<script>
import * as d3 from 'd3';
export default {
 name: 'vue-line-chart',
 data() {
  return {
   data: [99, 71, 78, 25, 36, 92],
   line: '',
  };
 },
 mounted() {
  this.calculatePath();
 },
 methods: {
  getScales() {
   const x = d3.scaleTime().range([0, 430]);
   const y = d3.scaleLinear().range([210, 0]);
   d3.axisLeft().scale(x);
   d3.axisBottom().scale(y);
   x.domain(d3.extent(this.data, (d, i) => i));
   y.domain([0, d3.max(this.data, d => d)]);
   return { x, y };
  },
  calculatePath() {
   const scale = this.getScales();
   const path = d3.line()
    .x((d, i) => scale.x(i))
    .y(d => scale.y(d));
   this.line = path(this.data);
  },
 },
};
</script>
<style lang="sass" scoped>
svg
 margin: 25px;
path
 fill: none
 stroke: #76BF8A
 stroke-width: 3px
</style>

is pretty cool, even though it doesn't expose any properties and the data is hardcoded , it separates the view from the logic very well, and uses Vue hooks, methods and data

object, the phenomenon is the same as the picture above.

I believe you have mastered the method after reading the case in this article. For more exciting information, please pay attention to other related articles on the php Chinese website!
