What is the best way to update d3 charts using - AJAX

Question

I've learned few blocks of d3. And I've made a responsive d3 histogram with the help of jquery.

Now that I wanted to go a bit forward on updating d3 charts using ajax.

I've just stepped into jquery.

And know a few bits how ajax works.

Searching for a long time but I couldn't get any working example on the official d3 site or anywhere else.

Any help will be fruitful for me to get on the basic blocks of updating d3 charts through ajax.

Thanks in advance!!

Answer 1

I know the OP specified jQuery, but for those Googlers not wanting another framework, there is a native D3 way of doing this, using either request or json:

d3.request(url, function(error, response) {
    // Now use response to do some d3 magic
});

or

d3.json(url, function(error, response) {
    // Now use response to do some d3 magic
});
