Class CboxMenu

The CboxMenu is a simple widget designed to filter a dimension by selecting option(s) from a set of HTML <input /> elements. The menu can be made into a set of radio buttons (single select) or checkboxes (multiple).

Hierarchy

Constructors

  • Create a Cbox Menu.

    TODO update example

    Example

    // create a cboxMenu under #cbox-container using the default global chart group
    const cbox = new CboxMenu('#cbox-container')
    .dimension(states)
    .group(stateGroup);
    // the option text can be set via the title() function
    // by default the option text is '`key`: `value`'
    cbox.title(function (d){
    return 'STATE: ' + d.key;
    })

    Parameters

    Returns CboxMenu

Properties

Standard Methods

  • Returns CboxMenu

  • Returns CboxMenu

  • Get the current configuration.

    It returns reference to the internal structure. Any changes made may have unintended consequences.

    Returns ICboxMenuConf

  • Return charts data, typically group.all(). Some charts override this method. The derived classes may even use different return type.

    Returns CFGrouping[]

  • Current height of the chart.

    To explicitly set height, please set height as part of the chart configuration.

    If not set explicitly the size will be as per the anchor HTML element subject to a minimum as set in minHeight. In that case it will keep automatically resizing as well.

    See

    Returns number

  • Attach a Legend widget to this chart. The legend widget will automatically draw legend labels based on the color setting and names associated with each group.

    Example

    chart.legend(new Legend().x(400).y(10).itemHeight(13).gap(5))
    

    Returns any

  • Parameters

    • legend: any

    Returns CboxMenu

  • Parameters

    • val: any

    Returns void

  • Calling redraw will cause the chart to re-render data changes incrementally. If there is no change in the underlying data dimension then calling this method will have no effect on the chart. Most chart interaction in dc will automatically trigger this method through internal events; therefore, you only need to manually invoke this function if data is manipulated outside of dc's control (for example if data is loaded in the background using crossfilter.add).

    Typically you would invoke redrawGroup which will redraw all charts within the chartGroup.

    Returns CboxMenu

  • Invoking this method will force the chart to re-render everything from scratch. Generally it should only be used to render the chart for the first time on the page or if you want to make sure everything is redrawn from scratch instead of relying on the default incremental redrawing behaviour.

    Typically you would invoke renderGroup which will redraw all charts within the chartGroup.

    Returns CboxMenu

  • A renderlet is similar to an event listener on rendering event. Multiple renderlets can be added to an individual chart. Each time a chart is rerendered or redrawn the renderlets are invoked right after the chart finishes its transitions, giving you a way to modify the SVGElements. Renderlet functions take the chart instance as the only input parameter and you can use the dc API or use raw d3 to achieve pretty much any effect.

    Use on with a 'renderlet' prefix. Generates a random key for the renderlet, which makes it hard to remove.

    Deprecated

    chart.renderlet has been deprecated. Please use chart.on("renderlet.", renderletFunction)

    Example

    // do this instead of .renderlet(function(chart) { ... })
    chart.on("renderlet", function(chart){
    // mix of dc API and d3 manipulation
    chart.select('g.y').style('display', 'none');
    // its a closure so you can also access other chart variable available in the closure scope
    moveChart.filter(chart.filter());
    });

    TODO move to compat

    Parameters

    • renderletFunction: any

    Returns CboxMenu

  • Current width of the chart.

    To explicitly set width, please set width as part of the chart configuration.

    If not set explicitly the size will be as per the anchor HTML element subject to a minimum as set in minWidth. In that case it will keep automatically resizing as well.

    Returns number

  • Execute the callback without transitions. Internally it sets transitionDuration to 0 and restores it after the callback().

    Parameters

    • callback: any

    Returns void

Intermediate Methods

  • Returns the DOM id for the chart's anchored location.

    Returns string

  • Returns the internal numeric ID of the chart.

    Returns string

  • Filter the chart by the given parameter, or return the current filter if no input parameter is given.

    Starting version 5, filtering is provided by DataProvider.

    See

    filter.

    Returns any

  • Parameters

    • filter: any

    Returns CboxMenu

  • Returns all current filters. This method does not perform defensive cloning of the internal filter array before returning, therefore any modification of the returned array will effect the chart's internal filter storage.

    Starting version 5, filtering is provided by DataProvider.

    See

    filters.

    Returns any[]

  • Check whether any active filter or a specific filter is associated with particular chart instance. This function is not chainable.

    Starting version 5, filtering is provided by DataProvider.

    See

    hasFilter.

    Parameters

    • Optional filter: any

    Returns boolean

  • All dc chart instance supports the following listeners. Supports the following events:

    • renderlet - This listener function will be invoked after transitions after redraw and render. Replaces the deprecated renderlet method.
    • pretransition - Like .on('renderlet', ...) but the event is fired before transitions start.
    • preRender - This listener function will be invoked before chart rendering.
    • postRender - This listener function will be invoked after chart finish rendering including all renderlets' logic.
    • preRedraw - This listener function will be invoked before chart redrawing.
    • postRedraw - This listener function will be invoked after chart finish redrawing including all renderlets' logic.
    • filtered - This listener function will be invoked after a filter is applied, added or removed.
    • zoomed - This listener function will be invoked after a zoom is triggered.

    See

    d3.dispatch.on

    Example

    .on('renderlet', function(chart, filter){...})
    .on('pretransition', function(chart, filter){...})
    .on('preRender', function(chart){...})
    .on('postRender', function(chart){...})
    .on('preRedraw', function(chart){...})
    .on('postRedraw', function(chart){...})
    .on('filtered', function(chart, filter){...})
    .on('zoomed', function(chart, filter){...})

    Parameters

    • event: any
    • listener: any

    Returns CboxMenu

  • Replace the chart filter. This is equivalent to calling chart.filter(null).filter(filter) but more efficient because the filter is only applied once.

    Starting version 5, filtering is provided by DataProvider.

    See

    resetFilters.

    Parameters

    • filter: any

    Returns CboxMenu

  • Execute d3 single selection in the chart's scope using the given selector and return the d3 selection.

    This function is not chainable since it does not return a chart instance; however the d3 selection result can be chained to d3 function calls.

    This is typically used in augmenting/modifying a chart.

    TODO link to example

    See

    d3.select

    Example

    // Has the same effect as d3.select('#chart-id').select(selector)
    chart.select(selector)

    Type Parameters

    • DescElement extends BaseType

    Parameters

    • sel: any

      CSS selector string

    Returns any

  • Execute in scope d3 selectAll using the given selector and return d3 selection result.

    This function is not chainable since it does not return a chart instance; however the d3 selection result can be chained to d3 function calls.

    This is typically used in augmenting/modifying a chart.

    TODO link to example

    See

    d3.selectAll

    Example

    // Has the same effect as d3.select('#chart-id').selectAll(selector)
    chart.selectAll(selector)

    Type Parameters

    • DescElement extends BaseType

    • OldDatum

    Parameters

    • sel: any

      CSS selector string

    Returns any

  • Turn on optional control elements within the root element. dc currently supports the following html control elements.

    • root.selectAll('.reset') - elements are turned on if the chart has an active filter. This type of control element is usually used to store a reset link to allow user to reset filter on a certain chart. This element will be turned off automatically if the filter is cleared.
    • root.selectAll('.filter') elements are turned on if the chart has an active filter. The text content of this element is then replaced with the current filter value using the filter printer function. This type of element will be turned off automatically if the filter is cleared.

    turnOffControls

    Returns CboxMenu

Ninja Methods

  • Set the root SVGElement to either be an existing chart's root; or any valid d3 single selector specifying a dom block element such as a div; or a dom element or d3 selection.

    This is internally managed. Invoking it directly may have unintended consequences.

    Returns string | Element

  • Parameters

    • parent: any

    Returns CboxMenu

  • An opportunity to cleanup.

    Returns void

  • Expire the internal chart cache. dc charts cache some data internally on a per chart basis to speed up rendering and avoid unnecessary calculation; however it might be useful to clear the cache if you have changed state which will affect rendering. For example, if you invoke crossfilter.add function or reset group or dimension after rendering, it is a good idea to clear the cache to make sure charts are rendered properly.

    TODO determine if it can be removed, does not seem to be used

    Returns CboxMenu

  • Handle the actual resizing of the chart if the size needs to change based on bounding rectangle.

    Parameters

    Returns void

  • This function is passed to d3 as the onClick handler for each chart. The default behavior is to filter on the clicked datum (passed to the callback) and redraw the chart group.

    This function can be replaced in order to change the click behavior (but first look at

    Example

    const oldHandler = chart.onClick;
    chart.onClick = function(datum) {
    // use datum.
    }

    Parameters

    • datum: any
    • Optional i: number

    Returns void

  • This is called to determine size of the chart based on the bounding rectangle. The default implementation ensures that the chart is at least as big as the minimums defined by minWidth and minHeight.

    Parameters

    Returns SizeT

  • Set chart options using a configuration object. Each key in the object will cause the method of the same name to be called with the value to set that attribute for the chart. TODO: With concept of conf, this is less relevant now, consider moving it to compat.

    Example

    chart.options({dimension: myDimension, group: myGroup});
    

    Parameters

    • opts: any

    Returns CboxMenu

  • Returns the root element where a chart resides. Usually it will be the parent div element where the SVGElement was created.

    Resetting the root element on a chart outside of dc internals may have unexpected consequences.

    See

    HTMLElement

    Returns Selection<Element, any, any, any>

  • Parameters

    • rootElement: Selection<Element, any, any, any>

    Returns CboxMenu

  • Returns the top SVGElement for this specific chart.

    Usually generating an SVG Element is handled handled by dc internally. The BubbleOverlay, however, needs an SVG Element to be passed explicitly.

    Resetting the SVGElement on a chart outside of dc internals may have unexpected consequences.

    SVGElement

    Returns Selection<SVGElement, any, any, any>

  • Parameters

    • svgElement: any

    Returns CboxMenu
