Legend and axes not working properly in d3 multi-line chart

I adapted a multi-line chart which has a legend and axis and displays correctly on the bl.ocks.org site (http://bl.ocks.org/Matthew-Weber/5645518). The legend reorganizes itself when you select a different type from the drop down field. On my adaptation when the legend reorganizes itself the items start to overlap each other when some types are selected. Also the axes draw on top of each other. The original code uses tipsy but I have not checked it.

//set the margins
var margin = {
top: 50,

height = 500 - margin.top - margin.bottom;
//set dek and head to be as wide as SVG

My adapted code (including a lot of console.log messages) is in jsfiddle https://jsfiddle.net/pwarwick43/13fpn567/2/
I am beginning to think the problem might be with the version of d3 or jquery. Anyone got suggestions about this?

D3 - transition after reading updated data from external file

I am trying to create a bar chart that has 'attendees' and 'coins'. The data is being read from an external file and I'd like to update the chart as the data changes (or check the file every couple seconds and update the data). I have been trying to follow along mbostock's tutorial on the general update pattern but have had a heck of a time even starting to adapt for my own chart. I didn't find any other questions/answers that dealt with transitioning data from external files, but if I missed something, please let me know. So, with that, I turn you all!
Here is my current JS code:
var margin = {top: 40, right: 20, bottom: 30, left: 40},
width = 950 - margin.left - margin.right,
height = 500 - margin.top - margin.bottom;
var formatNumber = d3.format(".1f");
var x = d3.scale.ordinal()
.rangeRoundBands([0, width], .1);
var y = d3.scale.linear()
.range([height, 0]);
var xAxis = d3.svg.axis()
.scale(x)
.orient("bottom");
var yAxis = d3.svg.axis()
.scale(y)
.orient("left")
.tickFormat(formatNumber);
var tip = d3.tip()
.attr('class', 'd3-tip')
.offset([-10, 0])
.html(function(d) {
return "<strong>Coins:</strong> <span style='color:red'>" + d.coins + "</span>";
})
var svg = d3.select("body").append("svg")
.attr("width", width + margin.left + margin.right)
.attr("height", height + margin.top + margin.bottom)
.append("g")
.attr("transform", "translate(" + margin.left + "," + margin.top + ")");
svg.call(tip);
d3.tsv("data.tsv", type, function(error, data) {
x.domain(data.map(function(d) { return d.attendee; }));
y.domain([0, d3.max(data, function(d) { return d.coins; })]);
svg.append("g")
.attr("class", "x axis")
.attr("transform", "translate(0," + height + ")")
.call(xAxis);
svg.append("g")
.attr("class", "y axis")
.call(yAxis)
.append("text")
.attr("transform", "rotate(-90)")
.attr("y", 6)
.attr("dy", ".5em")
.style("text-anchor", "end")
.text("Coins");
svg.selectAll(".bar")
.data(data)
.enter().append("rect")
.attr("class", "bar")
.attr("x", function(d) { return x(d.attendee); })
.attr("width", x.rangeBand())
.attr("y", function(d) { return y(d.coins); })
.attr("height", function(d) { return height - y(d.coins); })
.on('mouseover', tip.show)
.on('mouseout', tip.hide)
});
function type(d) {
d.coins = +d.coins;
return d;
}
var inter = setInterval(function() {
update();
}, 1000);
function update() {
}
I should also mention that this is the first time really trying to dig deeper with D3. I hope I am not missing something too obvious! Thank you in advance for any help, suggestions, or pushes in the right direction!
** Edit to note the bar chart is an attempt to add functionality upon the sample found here.
Edit 2: Adding .tsv here for better formatting:
attendee coins
George 35
Charlie 50
Harrison 50
Billy 45
Wally 30
Harley 40
Steven 120
Paul 30

First of all you can call the update function like this:
var inter = setInterval(updateChart, 5000);
The logic which would simulate the fetch is the following:
function fetchData() {
console.log('fetching');
return new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
var data = [{
attendee: "Paul",
coins: Math.floor(Math.random() * 40) + 1
}, {
attendee: "Bessy the Cow",
coins: Math.floor(Math.random() * 40) + 1
}, {
attendee: "Zeke",
coins: Math.floor(Math.random() * 40) + 1
}];
setTimeout(function() { // Adding timeout to simulate latency
resolve(data);
}, 4000)
})
}
Then we create an update function which will use the newly retrieved data:
function updateChart() {
fetchData()
.then(function(data) {
// Update our y domain with new coin values
y.domain([0, d3.max(data, function(d) {
return d.coins;
})]);
// Update our axis because our y domain just changed
svg.select('g.y')
.transition()
.duration(300)
.ease("linear")
.call(yAxis);
// Create a new data join with the simuldated data
var bars = svg.selectAll('.bar').data(data);
// Remove extra elements (say new data just has 2 bars, this would remove third one)
bars.exit().remove();
// Update existing elements
bars.transition()
.duration(300)
.ease("linear")
.call(renderBar);
// Add new elements (say new data has 5 bars, this would add the additional 2)
bars.enter().append('rect')
.transition()
.duration(300)
.ease("linear")
.call(renderBar);
})
}
I created the renderBar function since we are basically repeating the same routine at adding and updating.
function renderBar(rect) {
rect.attr("class", "bar")
.attr("x", function(d) {
return x(d.attendee);
})
.attr("width", x.rangeBand())
.attr("y", function(d) {
return y(d.coins);
})
.attr("height", function(d) {
return height - y(d.coins);
});
}
This plunkr shows the working code, I removed the d3.tip part:

d3 text all over the place and not in the right places

I'm trying to build a linechart based off of the example at http://bl.ocks.org/mbostock/3884955. I'm not using temperatures but rather value levels from 0-1 that I call sentiments.
I'm not using a tsv file either, but rather rendering JSON in real time through an AJAX call where my data object is an array with objects in it:
[{date: '20140716', ESPN.com: 0.4, SI.com: 0.5})]
There are typically multiple dates in an array and at least 6-7 websites (they're included in every object).
The code looks like this:
function renderHistoricalData(array) {
var data = array;
var margin = {top: 20, right: 80, bottom: 30, left: 50},
width = 1200 - margin.left - margin.right,
height = 450 - margin.top - margin.bottom;
var parseDate = d3.time.format("%Y%m%d").parse;
var x = d3.time.scale()
.range([0, width]);
var y = d3.scale.linear()
.range([height, 0]);
var color = d3.scale.category10();
var xAxis = d3.svg.axis()
.scale(x)
.orient("bottom");
var yAxis = d3.svg.axis()
.scale(y)
.orient("left");
var line = d3.svg.line()
.interpolate("basis")
.defined(function(d) { return d.y!=0; })
.x(function(d) { return x(d.date); })
.y(function(d) { return y(d.sentiment); });
var svg = d3.select("#historical_chart").append("svg")
.attr("width", width + margin.left + margin.right)
.attr("height", height + margin.top + margin.bottom)
.append("g")
.attr("transform", "translate(" + margin.left + "," + margin.top + ")");
data.forEach(function(d) {
color.domain(d3.keys(data[0]).filter(function(key) { return key !== "date"; }));
d.date = parseDate(d.date);
var sites = color.domain().map(function(name) {
return {
name: name,
values: data.map(function(d) {
return {date: d.date, sentiment: +d[name]};
})
};
});
x.domain(d3.extent(data, function(d) { return d.date; }));
y.domain([
d3.min(sites, function(c) { return d3.min(c.values, function(v) { return v.sentiment; }); }),
d3.max(sites, function(c) { return d3.max(c.values, function(v) { return v.sentiment; }); })
]);
svg.append("g")
.attr("class", "x axis")
.attr("transform", "translate(0," + height + ")")
.call(xAxis);
svg.append("g")
.attr("class", "y axis")
.call(yAxis)
.append("text")
.attr("transform", "rotate(-90)")
.attr("y", 6)
.attr("dy", ".71em")
.style("text-anchor", "end")
.text("Sentiment (%)");
var site = svg.selectAll(".site")
.data(sites)
.enter().append("g")
.attr("class", "site");
site.append("path")
.attr("class", "line")
.attr("d", function(d) { return line(d.values); })
.style("stroke", function(d) { return color(d.name); });
site.append("text")
.datum(function(d) { return {name: d.name, value: d.values[d.values.length - 1]}; })
.attr("transform", function(d) { return "translate(" + x(d.value.date) + "," + y(d.value.sentiment) + ")"; })
.attr("x", 3)
.attr("dy", ".35em")
// .style("text-anchor", "inherit")
.text(function(d) { return d.name; });
});
}
This results in something that looks like:

Any ideas? I'd greatly appreciate your help. Thanks!

The root cause of the problem is that in the code
{name: d.name, value: d.values[d.values.length - 1]}
you're assuming that values are sorted by date, latest date last. In your data, the opposite is the case -- the latest date is first. Therefore, your text appears at the beginning of the x axis. To fix, simply sort your data.
I've fixed this and a few other things here.

Error: parsing d="MNaN,260L on D3.js multiline graph with JSON data

I'm trying to show at least one line of a graph with this, hopefully to be adding a second later. I just can't get anything to show up though, when this hits the line return line(d.values); I get Error: parsing d="MNaN,260L... for a bunch of lines. I started out with this example, my data structure is identical to the one in that example, and I kept all the variable names and when I console.log(cities), my structure is the same. Ideas?
cities var looks like :
[
{name:"count", values: [{date:1, temperature: 10}, {date:1, temperature: 10}]}
]
JS code looks like:
var margin = {top: 20, right: 0, bottom: 20, left: 20},
width = 600 - margin.left - margin.right,
height = 300 - margin.top - margin.bottom;
var parseDate = d3.time.format("%Y%m%d").parse;
var x = d3.time.scale()
.range([0, width]);
var y = d3.scale.linear()
.range([height, 0]);
var color = d3.scale.category10();
var xAxis = d3.svg.axis()
.scale(x)
.orient("bottom");
var yAxis = d3.svg.axis()
.scale(y)
.orient("left");
var line = d3.svg.line()
.interpolate("basis")
.x(function(d) {
console.log(d)
return x(d.date);
})
.y(function(d) {
return y(d.temperature);
});
var svg = d3.select(".heartbeat").append("svg")
.attr("width", width + margin.left + margin.right)
.attr("height", height + margin.top + margin.bottom)
.append("g")
.attr("transform", "translate(" + margin.left + "," + margin.top + ")");
d3.json("/static/data/test.json", function(error, data) {
color.domain(["one"]);
function get_vs(){
a = []
$.each(data, function(k, v){
if(v.hasOwnProperty("CN")){
a.push({"date": new Date(), "temperature": v.CN.count})
}else{
a.push({"date": new Date(), "temperature": 0})
}
})
return a
}
var cities = [
{
name: "count",
values: get_vs()
}
]
x.domain(d3.extent(data, function(d) { return d.date; }));
y.domain([
d3.min(cities, function(c) { return d3.min(c.values, function(v) { return v.temperature; }); }),
d3.max(cities, function(c) { return d3.max(c.values, function(v) { return v.temperature; }); })
]);
svg.append("g")
.attr("class", "x axis")
.attr("transform", "translate(0," + height + ")")
.call(xAxis);
svg.append("g")
.attr("class", "y axis")
.call(yAxis)
var city = svg.selectAll(".city")
.data(cities)
.enter().append("g")
.attr("class", "city");
city.append("path")
.attr("class", "line")
.attr("d", function(d) {
return line(d.values);
})
.style("stroke", function(d) { return color(d.name); });
});

The data just needed a bit of adapting - the original code was expecting an array of objects.
data = []
d3.json("/static/data/test.json", function(error, json_data) {
$.each(json_data, function(k, v){
a = {count: count, avg: avg, date: date}
data.push(a)
})
})

Adding dynamic tooltips to a streamgraph d3.js

Im working on a streamgraph at the moment, I want to add tooltips to each layer similar to this http://archive.stamen.com/mtvmovies-streamgraph/chart.html
The tooltips I have now dont really work at all. All I get is 'NaN' displayed in the tooltip box.
Any suggestions?? My code is below.
Thanks in advance.

"#8c564b", "#e377c2", "#7f7f7f", "#bcbd22", "#17becf"

Are you hoping to concatenate the values of d.date and d.close, or are you interested in adding the values and returning the result?
If the latter:
I would bet that the types of d.date and d.close are not what you expect. I'd recommend, if you haven't already, putting some debug code in to check the types of those variables. Example:
//CURRENT TOOLTIP CODE
var toolTip = svg.selectAll("path")
.append("svg:title")
.text(function(d) {
console.log('d.date type:' + typeof d.date + 'd.close type:' + typeof d.close);
return (d.date) + (d.close);
}
);
Also, you have an extra semicolon at the end of that statement in your code snippet.
If the former:
One or both are of type number and Javascript will try to add them when you use the + operator instead of concatenating them. To return the strings:
.text(function(d) {
return d.date.toString() + ' ' + d.close.toString();
});
