This interactive Sankey diagram, built with D3.js v4, visualizes the flow of "Widgets" between five nodes. Users can click and drag the rectangular nodes in both horizontal and vertical directions, which triggers a recalculation of the diagram's layout and redraws the connecting, curved links. The example leverages a Sankey plugin adapted from Jason Davies and loads its node and link data from a local JSON file, with node colors generated from a categorical color scheme.

AI-generated description

The above example is intended to demonstrate drawing a simple Sankey diagram using v4 of d3.js. It uses Jason Davies' version of the Sankey plugin.

This particular version allows the dragging of nodes in the x and y direction. Have a play!

This is one of the code samples for the update to the book D3 Tips and Tricks to version 4 of d3.js.

SANKEY Experiment

This Sankey diagram shows the flow of "Widgets" between five named nodes, with link thickness indicating the quantity transferred. Built with D3.js v5 and a custom `d3.sankey` plugin, it loads JSON data with node names, maps links accordingly, and lays out the graph automatically. The diagram supports interactive dragging of node rectangles, which triggers a `relayout()` to update link paths. Rendering uses SVG elements with semi-transparent curved paths and categorical color fills per node.

SANKEY Experiment

A Sankey diagram displays the flow of "Widgets" between five nodes, with links showing the directed transfer values. Built with D3.js version 3.5 and the sankey.js plugin, the SVG visualization renders nodes as draggable rectangles and links as curved paths whose thickness encodes flow magnitude. Data loads from an external JSON file, and the chart supports interactive node repositioning, which triggers recalculation of link paths through the sankey.relayout() method. Node and link hover tooltips reveal names and formatted values.

SANKEY Experiment

A Sankey diagram visualizes the flow of quantities between five nodes, with node colors distinguishing categories and link thickness representing value. The diagram supports interactive dragging of nodes in both axes, recalculating link paths during movement. Built with D3 v4, it uses the d3.sankey plugin for layout and d3.drag for interaction. Data comes from a static JSON file, and the SVG rendering includes hover tooltips showing source, target, and formatted values in "Widgets" units.

SANKEY Experiment

A Sankey diagram visualizes the flow of widgets between five nodes, with link widths proportional to the volume of each connection. The code loads data from a JSON file and uses d3.sankey(), d3.drag(), and standard SVG elements to render the network. Nodes are draggable, triggering a relayout that recalculates link paths in real time.

SANKEY Experiment

A Sankey diagram visualizes the flow of "Widgets" between five named people, with link thickness proportional to transfer values. Built with D3 v4, it uses the `d3.sankey` plugin to compute node positions and link paths, rendering nodes as draggable SVG rectangles and links as cubic Bézier curves via `sankey.link()`. Data loads from a JSON file with named source and target references, which the code maps to node objects before layout. The scene updates interactively on drag, recalculating link depths through `sankey.relayout()`.

SANKEY Experiment

A Sankey diagram visualizes the flow of "Widgets" between five nodes, with link thickness proportional to the quantity transferred. The layout uses `d3.sankey()` from a custom `sankey.js` plugin, rendering nodes as SVG rectangles and links as cubic Bézier paths, while interactively dragging nodes triggers `sankey.relayout()`. Node and link tooltips display values via `d3.format`. The data originates from `sankey.json`, which defines the nodes and edges.

SANKEY Experiment

This visualization demonstrates a Sankey diagram using D3.js v5, displaying flows between nodes with width-proportional links. Built with SVG, it renders colored rectangles for nodes and semi-transparent black curves for links, with interactive drag-and-drop repositioning that triggers smooth link updates. The diagram, titled “SANKEY Experiment,” loads its data from an external JSON file and includes hover tooltips showing source, target, and value. The code adapts a D3 v4 block by d3noob and uses the custom sankey.js layout module to compute node positions and link paths, with a units label of "Widgets" and a color scale from d3.schemeCategory10.

SANKEY Experiment

This example demonstrates an interactive Sankey diagram with draggable nodes using d3.js v5. The visualization shows flow relationships between five nodes with seven weighted links, rendered as SVG paths and rectangles. The code loads data from a JSON file via d3.json, applies the d3.sankey plugin for layout computation, and uses d3.drag to enable node repositioning. A relayout function recalculates link paths dynamically when nodes are dragged. The diagram uses color from d3.scaleOrdinal and formats values as "Widgets" units.
