A D3/Faux-dom/React App to build and read sankey diagrams

Sankey - D3/REACT App

A D3/Faux-dom/React App to build and visualize Sankey diagrams:

• D3 runs all the calculation.
• A faux-dom coupled with D3 generates SVG elements in an isomorphic way.
• React handles state and renderings.

DataFormat

You can import/export sankey diagrams using the following json format:

{ 
  nodes: [
    {"name":"node0"},
    {"name":"node1"}], 
  links: [
    {"source":0,"target":1,"value":100}
  ]
}

Install:

Make sure you have webpack installed globally:

$ npm i -g webpack

Install npm dependencies:

$ npm i

Build your bundle:

$ webpack or $ npm run dev

Serve your public/index.html via http to see and use the Sankey Diagram Builder App.

Webpack dev server

The webpack-dev-server is a little node.js Express server, which uses the webpack-dev-middleware to serve a webpack bundle. It also has a little runtime which is connected to the server via Socket.IO

Just run the server from the project root

$ webpack-dev-server or npm run dev-server
