I've made a force directed graph with d3.js plugin, and I wanna color the nodes and the labels with the different color according to group which they belong.
I've added scale for color:
var color = d3.scale.category20();
and to node variable I've added:
.style("fill", function(d) { return color(d.group); })
but all nodes are in the same color..
Here is my current situation: http://jsfiddle.net/WBkw9/
full script:
var links = [
{source: "John", target: "Mike", group: "5"},
{source: "John", target: "Janice", group: "5"},
{source: "John", target: "Caleb", group: "5"},
{source: "John", target: "Anna", group: "4"},
{source: "John", target: "Tommy", group: "3"},
{source: "John", target: "Jack", group: "2"},
{source: "John", target: "Vilma", group: "1"},
];
var nodes = {};
// Compute the distinct nodes from the links.
links.forEach(function(link) {
link.source = nodes[link.source] || (nodes[link.source] = {name: link.source});
link.target = nodes[link.target] || (nodes[link.target] = {name: link.target});
});
var color = d3.scale.category20();
var width = 960,
height = 500;
var force = d3.layout.force()
.nodes(d3.values(nodes))
.links(links)
.size([width, height])
.linkDistance(60)
.charge(-300)
.on("tick", tick)
.start();
var svg = d3.select("body").append("svg")
.attr("width", width)
.attr("height", height);
var link = svg.selectAll(".link")
.data(force.links())
.enter().append("line")
.attr("class", "link");
var node = svg.selectAll(".node")
.data(force.nodes())
.enter().append("g")
.attr("class", "node")
.style("fill", function(d) { return color(d.group); })
.on("mouseover", mouseover)
.on("mouseout", mouseout)
.call(force.drag);
node.append("circle")
.attr("r", 8);
node.append("text")
.attr("x", 12)
.attr("dy", ".35em")
.text(function(d) { return d.name; });
function tick() {
link
.attr("x1", function(d) { return d.source.x; })
.attr("y1", function(d) { return d.source.y; })
.attr("x2", function(d) { return d.target.x; })
.attr("y2", function(d) { return d.target.y; });
node
.attr("transform", function(d) { return "translate(" + d.x + "," + d.y + ")"; });
}
function mouseover() {
d3.select(this).select("circle").transition()
.duration(750)
.attr("r", 16);
}
function mouseout() {
d3.select(this).select("circle").transition()
.duration(750)
.attr("r", 8);
}
what am I missing for different color on each group?
Your problem is that group
is not defined for your data. As a result, all of your nodes are colored for group 'undefined'. Your circles are defined for the data in force.nodes()
, which have the attributes index
name
px
py
weight
x
and y
. group
is only defined for the links, which never have color applied to them.
As it currently stands, there also isn't a clear way to determine what color a node should be. What happens if more than one link connects to a node, and these links are in different groups?
Here is my code (based on http://bl.ocks.org/mbostock/4062045). It's working perfectly. You can see how it looks like here : http://jsfiddle.net/Rom2BE/H2PkT/
Each group has a different color.

Your group info is only available in the links
object, like @ckersch already pointed out. You would need to add the group info to you nodes
object too. For this example that can be done by changing line 16 into:
link.target = nodes[link.target] || (nodes[link.target] = {name: link.target, group: link.group});
But for more complex data, with more than one source
, all sources would have the same colour (or would that be OK?).
I made that change in this Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/WBkw9/19/.
