THIS IS A FORK
Offered help here
but didn't get anywhere.
This is fork is published at nvd3-fork
and will only contain minor
patches and fixes.
Note that there's another fork here that
targets d3 v4 update for nvd3.
To force-publish a new version:
grunt production
git commit -a -m "{VERSION}"
git tag {VERSION}
git push apache-superset master {VERSION}
npm publish
NVD3 - A reusable D3 charting library
Inspired by the work of Mike Bostock's Towards Reusable Charts, and supported by a combined effort of Novus and the NVD3 community.

Usage
Simply add the nv.d3
assets to your project and include them in your HTML.
<link href="nv.d3.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
<script src="nv.d3.min.js"></script>
nv.d3.js
should appear after d3.js
is included.- Prefer minified assets (
.min
) for production.
Dependencies
NVD3 is recommended to go with d3.js version 3.5.3 and later, but NOT d3 4.x yet. version 3.5.17 is the most recent d3 v3 release.
Minimum D3 version required: 3.4.4
For a D3v4 Version, see the work in progress at the nvd3 organization
Along with pieChart
options padAngle
and cornerRadius
, the interactive guideline tooltip now requires these later versions of D3 (3.4.4+, specifically, to get interactive tooltips). The interactive guide lines rely on the more recent d3.bisector()
method which treats accessors taking two parameters (the second being the element index) as comparators (see d3.bisector()).
Supported Browsers
NVD3 runs best on WebKit based browsers.
- Google Chrome: latest version
- Opera 15+ (i.e. webkit version)
- Safari: latest version
- Firefox: latest version
- Internet Explorer: 10+
Do we support D3 v4.x?
No, we do not... we are very interested in taking this on but could use some help. Please let us know if you'd like to help make this a reality! :)

Bugs
Found a bug? Check out the latest from the master
branch and make sure it's not already fixed first! If you don't see a related fix, please open an issue.
Optional dependencies
Including Fastdom in your project can greatly increase the performance of the line chart (particularly in Firefox and Internet Explorer) by batching DOM read and write operations to avoid layout thrashing. NVD3 will take advantage of Fastdom if present.
Contributing
If one of the existing models
doesn't meet your needs, fork the project, implement the model and an example using it,
send us a pull request, for consideration for inclusion in the project.
If you'd like to contribute consistently, show me what you've got with some good pull requests and you may get added to the nvd3-community org!
A few rules for pull requests
- Please commit to the
master
branch - Do NOT check in anything under the
build
directory, it clutters up the commit and just gets overwritten later. - All new features must come with unit test coverage
- Bug fixes should come with unit tests that prove their fix
If you want to test your changes using the example pages,
you'll have to run grunt production
to build the items into the build
directory.
You must do this before your changes show up in the examples, as they link to the build directory
in order to properly show off the finished product.
Please remember to NOT include the build files in your commit though,
only include the source files you changed!
Tips for Testing
- Unit tests were written in Karma and Mocha. Follow instructions in Building Latest to get npm packages setup. This may not work on Windows machines.
- Run
bower install
to get bower dependencies. - Run
grunt
to start the unit tests. - Also visually inspect the HTML pages in the examples/ and test/ folders. Make sure there are no glaring errors.
- Novus now uses Travis CI for continuous integration. Visit our travis build page to see the latest status.
Meteor Tinytests
- Any Meteor-specific features can be tested from the command line using
tinytest
and Spacejam spacejam
can be installed by running npm install -g spacejam
.- Tinytests can then be executed by running
spacejam test-packages ./
from this project's root.
Building latest
- First clone the repository and checkout the
master
branch - make sure
nodejs
is installed via your system's package manager. - Install
grunt
, grunt-cli
, and bower
: npm install -g grunt grunt-cli bower
have node download nvd3's required modules with: npm install
build with: grunt production
You should now have a build
directory with the js and css files within.
