Fill line chart area with multiple colors

I am trying to create a chart like below:
While I've created the skeleton of it but stuck on how to fill those areas with multiple colors. I'm using d3 to complete this chart.
My code for reference:
var line = d3.line()
.x(function(d) { return x(d.ind); })
.y(function(d) { return y(d.tot_cases); })
x.domain(data.map(function(d) { return d.ind; }));
y.domain([0, d3.max(data, function(d) { return d.tot_cases; })]);
g.append("g")
.attr("class", "axis axis--x")
.attr("transform", "translate(0," + height + ")")
.call(d3.axisBottom(x));
var lineAndDots = g.append("g")
.attr("class", "line-and-dots")
.attr("transform", "translate(" + ((margin.left + margin.right) / 3) + "," + 0 + ")")
// Data line
lineAndDots.append("path")
.datum(data)
.attr("class", "data-line")
.attr("d", line);
// Data dots
lineAndDots.selectAll("line-circle")
.data(data)
.enter().append("circle")
.attr("class", "data-circle")
.attr("r", 5)
.attr("cx", function(d) { return x(d.ind); })
.attr("cy", function(d) { return y(d.tot_cases); });
g.selectAll("lines-ax")
.data(data)
.enter().append("line")
.attr("class", "line")
.attr("x1", function(d) { return x(d.ind) + margin.right; })
.attr("y1", function(d) { return height - margin.bottom})
.attr("x2", function(d) { return x(d.ind) + margin.right ; })
.attr("y2", function(d) { return y(d.tot_cases); })
.attr("fill", "black")
.attr("stroke", "gray")
.attr("stroke-width", 3);
You can find my entire code in this link.
Any ideas on how to do this is very helpful. Thanks in advance!

Not a clean implementation, since I did not implement select, enter, append pattern of D3, also I add a random color generator, I will leave it to you to clean it up and add your color scheme to the chart
You might notice that the last element missing its color and polygon item since there is no indication on how to add it.
var svg = d3.select("svg"),
margin = {top: 20, right: 20, bottom: 30, left: 40},

height = +svg.attr("height") - margin.top - margin.bottom;

y = d3.scaleLinear().rangeRound([height, 0]);

Plot bar chart using D3 JS

I am plotting a bar chart in D3.js (Version 3). Which has two axis, one is receive_data and another one is responses. I have a JSON file where I stored the data. JSON format looks like,
[{"receive_date":"2013-11-04","responses":"2"}]
In my JSON, I have two responses values for the same date 2013-11-04 .
Like,
[{"receive_date":"2013-11-04","responses":"2"},{"receive_date":"2013-11-04","responses":"8668"}
This is the JSON Source :- https://api.myjson.com/bins/gdpu7
So, when I am plotting the graph, it is not taking the sum of the values for the same receive_date instead it is showing two times. I want it to show the sum of responses. responses should be (8668+2) for the receive_date 2013-11-04
I also found it that by using reduce we can do this. I tried to use d3.json.reduce . But it is showing error d3.json.reduce is not a function.
var margin = {

Error: <rect> attribute width: Expected length, "NaN". and <text> attribute dx: Expected length, "NaN"

I want to implement a bar chart in D3, but my values on the dx axis are of type Date, data type which the D3 library should accept, but it seems to give me an error like this: attribute width: Expected length, "NaN".
This is my code:

var width=400;
var height=400;
var svg=d3.select("body")
.append("svg")
.attr("width",width)
.attr("height",height);
var padding = {left:30, right:30, top:20, bottom:20};
var dataset=[10,20,30,40,33,24,12,5];
var xScale = d3.scaleBand()
.domain(d3.range(dataset.length))
.range([0, width-padding.left-padding.right]);
var yScale = d3.scaleLinear()
.domain([0,d3.max(dataset)])
.range([height-padding.top-padding.bottom,0]);
var xAxis = d3.axisBottom()
.scale(xScale)
var yAxis = d3.axisLeft()
.scale(yScale)
var rectPadding=4;
var rects = svg.selectAll(".Myrect")
.data(dataset)
.enter()
.append("rect")
.attr("class","Myrect")
.attr("transform","translate(" + padding.left + "," + padding.top + ")")
.attr("x",function(d,i){
return xScale(i) + rectPadding/2;
})
.attr("y",function(d){
return yScale(d);
})
.attr("width",xScale.range()- rectPadding)
.attr("height",function(d){
return height - padding.top - padding.bottom - yScale(d);

var texts = svg.selectAll(".MyText")
.data(dataset)
.enter()

And the another error: attribute dx: Expected length, "NaN". I think it arises from band scales, but after using the introduction of the official, it still can't work.
The introduction of the official:
var x = d3.scaleBand()
.domain(["a", "b", "c"])
.range([0, width]);
So when I want to call the code, I think it should be used like this in my pasted code:
var texts = svg.selectAll(".MyText")
.data(dataset)
.enter()
.append("text")
.attr("class","MyText")
.attr("transform","translate(" + padding.left + "," + padding.top + ")")
.attr("x", function(d,i){
return xScale(i) + rectPadding/2;
})
.attr("y",function(d){
return yScale(d);
})
.attr("dx",function(){
return (xScale.range() - rectPadding)/2;
})
.attr("dy",function(d){
return 20;
})
.text(function(d){
return d;
});
But it seems to give me two errors. I'm a beginner. Thank you very much!

Right now, for the width of the rectangles and the dx of the texts, you're using:
xScale.range() - rectPadding
But xScale.range() returns an array, and array - number will give you a NaN. And you're not getting anywhere with a NaN...
Instead of xScale.range(), which will return an array, you should use:
xScale.bandwidth();
Which not only returns a proper number, but it's also what you're looking for.
Here is your code with that change:
<style>
.axis path,
.axis line {
fill: none;
stroke: black;
shape-rendering: crispEdges;
}
.axis text {
font-family: sans-serif;
font-size: 11px;
}
.MyRect {
fill: steelblue;
}
.MyText {
fill: white;
text-anchor: middle;
}

PS: You don't need rectPadding. Just set the padding in the band scale:
var xScale = d3.scaleBand()
.domain(d3.range(dataset.length))
.range([0, width-padding.left-padding.right])
.padding(0.2);//some value here

I have got the same error when element height for chart is too small due to this code (20px per row)
document.getElementById('chart').style.height = (data.getNumberOfRows() * 20) + 'px';
It was fine for several data items but when I had only a few items I got error. So I fixed it by adding some min-height
<div id="chart" style="width: 100%; min-height: 100px"></div>

d3 - multiple overlaying charts with custom DOM element

I'm new to d3, but pretty familiar with the HighCharts api.
I've seen lots of examples of multiple d3 charts on the same page; but can't seem to find examples of one chart overlaying/sitting directly on top of another chart. Is this possible?
With HighCharts, you can define multiple chart types in the plotOptions config object. Is there something similar with d3? Or, how could you do this with d3?
I would effectively like to have a line graph on top of a bar chart. There will be different 'stages' according to the data, so some of the bar's could be inactive/empty.
Additionally, I need to display an indicator to show where the 'stage' is currently; and ensure that this is all responsive.
Example (rough mockup):
After researching d3 and looking for similar examples, I am thinking that maybe d3 isn't the best choice for this; maybe a custom CSS/JS/HTML solution (inside an angular app) would be better.
Any recommendations or pointers would be very appreciated.

Here's a quick mock-up started from this excellent bar chart example:

<meta charset="utf-8">
<style>

Happy d3ing!

How can I create hierarchical bar chart in d3.js

I wanted to use the Sortable Bar Chart of Mike Bostock without it's transition property and sort the bars according to their lenght but I couldn't. I want the bars just like this. without interactivity.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<meta charset="utf-8">

}
.bar rect {
fill: steelblue;
}
.bar text {
fill: white;
}
.axis path, .axis line {
fill: none;
stroke: black;
shape-rendering: crispEdges;
}
</style>
<script src="http://mbostock.github.com/d3/d3.js"></script>
<script>
var margin = {top: 0, right: 10, bottom: 20, left: 10},
width = 960 - margin.left - margin.right,
height = 500 - margin.top - margin.bottom;
var index = d3.range(24),
data = index.map(d3.random.normal(100, 10));
var x = d3.scale.linear()
.domain([0, d3.max(data)])
.range([0, width]);
var y = d3.scale.ordinal()
.domain(index)
.rangeRoundBands([0, height], .1);
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 + ")");
var bar = svg.selectAll(".bar")
.data(data)
.enter().append("g")
.attr("class", "bar")
.attr("transform", function(d, i) { return "translate(0," + y(i) + ")"; });
bar.append("rect")
.attr("height", y.rangeBand())
.attr("width", x);
bar.append("text")
.attr("text-anchor", "end")
.attr("x", function(d) { return x(d) - 6; })
.attr("y", y.rangeBand() / 2)
.attr("dy", ".35em")
.text(function(d, i) { return i; });
svg.append("g")
.attr("class", "x axis")
.attr("transform", "translate(0," + height + ")")
.call(d3.svg.axis()
.scale(x)
.orient("bottom"));
//var sort = false;
//setInterval(function() {
// if (sort = !sort) {
// index.sort(function(a, b) { return data[a] - data[b]; });
// } else {
// index = d3.range(24);
// }
// y.domain(index);
// bar.transition()
// .duration(750)
// .delay(function(d, i) { return i * 50; })
// .attr("transform", function(d, i) { return "translate(0," + y(i) + ")"; });
//}, 5000);
var hierarchy = d3.layout.partition()
.data(function(d) { return d.data; });
</script>
I removed the the code from var sort = false; part and added
var hierarchy =.. part but It's still not working. How can I make it?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

You should add the following line to sort the values:
index.sort(function(a, b) { return data[b] - data[a]; });
