upgrading d3.json in tributary

[Ian Johnson]

hellooooo tribunauts!

long time no see. my bad for being so busy...

but I just added a feature that makes d3.json (and d3.csv, d3.xml etc) work as you'd hope it would in tributary.

The problem used to be that every keystroke would cause a new ajax call because the code is re-run. I used some esprima AST magic to hijack the d3.json function (as well as its cousins) that caches the result by the last URL you put in.

you should be able to develop with d3.json worry free in almost every case. if you want to turn off the caching for some reason there is a new button in the config panel.

for example:

Hi - I'm trying to get something similar to work.

Is there a way to use the command d3.csv() to access a file linked to the inlet? By this I mean that I created a new tab beside the "inlet.js" tab called "dataset.csv" and would like to access this and use it as data in a bar graph. 

I have the following at the moment: http://tributary.io/inlet/cb49cfd57f6a5a0a9c18

right now the length of the bars are based on a dummy dataset but the goal would be to access the csv file and use those values.

Thanks for any help in this regard.

Best,

Andrea

SOLVED! you must add a "./" before the .csv filename. :-)

I apologize - I spoke too soon. The above didn't work after all. I get the console message: {statusText: "Not Found", status: 404, responseURL: "http://sandbox.tributary.io/dataset.csv", response: "Cannot GET /dataset.csv", responseType: ""...}

Sorry for the delay Andrea!

the way you want to accomplish this is:

http://tributary.io/inlet/5ebc55eda179fb16195d

by default any file will be available on the tributary object, so tributary.dataset has your data in json form.

I should make the default behavior for d3.csv and d3.json work more like bl.ocks...
