D3 - "Cannot create property" vx "on number" 65 ""

So I'm trying to use this great Force-Directed Graph example for some very basic json: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DealPete/forceDirected/master/countries.json

My work here: codepen

I am getting an endless error feed from d3 with no errors in the beginning to suggest something wrong with my code. It starts like this:

XHR finished loading: GET "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DealPete/forceDirected/master/countries.json".

I can't find a good introductory resource on force plots in d3 v4 +, so I should just hack it.

Look at the array links

:

[
    { "target": 66, "source": 0 },
    { "target": 3, "source": 1 },
    { "target": 100, "source": 2 },
    ...
]

Now let's look at your function id

:

.id((d) => d.country)

As you can see, links

there is not in your array country

.



Therefore, since you are using a numeric index for the links, just release the function id()

. According to the API:

If id is specified, sets the node id attribute of the specified function and returns that value. If id is not specified, returns the current node access id, which defaults to a numeric node.index

Here is your working code:

const api = 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DealPete/forceDirected/master/countries.json'

var width = 500,
  height = 500;

let svg = d3.select("body").append('svg')
  .attr("width", width)
  .attr("height", height)

let color = d3.scaleOrdinal(d3.schemeCategory20);

let simulation = d3.forceSimulation()
  .force("link", d3.forceLink())
  .force("charge", d3.forceManyBody())
  .force("center", d3.forceCenter(width / 2, height / 2));

d3.json(api, function(error, graph) {
  if (error)
    throw error

  let link = svg.append("g")
    .attr("class", "links")
    .selectAll("line")
    .data(graph.links)
    .enter().append("line")
    .attr("stroke", "black")
    .attr("stroke-width", 4);

  let node = svg.append("g")
    .attr("class", "nodes")
    .selectAll("circle")
    .data(graph.nodes)
    .enter().append("circle")
    .attr("r", 5)
    .attr("fill", d => color(1))
    .call(d3.drag()
      .on("start", dragstarted)
      .on("drag", dragged)
      .on("end", dragended))

  simulation
    .nodes(graph.nodes)
    .on("tick", ticked)

  simulation.force("link")
    .links(graph.links)

  function ticked() {
    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("cx", function(d) {
        return d.x;
      })
      .attr("cy", function(d) {
        return d.y;
      });
  }
})

function dragstarted(d) {
  if (!d3.event.active) simulation.alphaTarget(0.3).restart();
  d.fx = d.x;
  d.fy = d.y;
}

function dragged(d) {
  d.fx = d3.event.x;
  d.fy = d3.event.y;
}

function dragended(d) {
  if (!d3.event.active) simulation.alphaTarget(0);
  d.fx = null;
  d.fy = null;
}
