I am trying to filter my row chart by selecting values in a dropdown.
I do this by creating a dimension and applying a filter to that dimension based on selected values in the dropdown.
The row chart has to display average values, to do this I created ReduceAdd/Remove/Initial functions.
The average values are working as intended.
However, when I filter my dimension used for the dropdown, it seems to add duplicate values to my row chart.
Example code: http://jsfiddle.net/sy9xA/4/
var dropDownFilterDimension;
function ReduceAdd(p, v) {
var value = v.value;
++p.countAvg;
p.totalAvg += value;
return p;
}
function ReduceRemove(p, v) {
var value = v.value
--p.countAvg;
p.totalAvg -= value;
return p;
}
function ReduceInitial() {
return {countAvg: 0, totalAvg: 0};
}
function filterDropdown(dropDownID){
dropDown = document.getElementById(dropDownID);
dropDownFilterDimension.filterAll();
values = $(dropDown).val();
if( values != null ){
dropDownFilterDimension.filter(function(d) { if (values.indexOf(d) > -1) {return d;} });
}
dc.redrawAll();
}
Here for example, when "banana" is selected for filtering. ReduceRemove is called for all non selected values, but in addition ReduceAdd is called for banana (even though it is already in it).
So now when after selecting banana, apple is selected. Banana still has some value.
Can someone explain why this is happening? Or how i can avoid this from happening?
Thanks in advance!

I don't have fully understand what you are doing also because the jsfddle doesn't show nothing more than the js.
I can tell how I do:
you have a dimension associated to a dc chart (ex chartDim)
you have a group that calculate the average associated to a dc chart (ex averageGroup)
you have a dropdown with a set of values to be use as filter (#myDropDown)
d3.select('#myDropDown')
.on('change', function(){
chartDim.filter(this.value)
dc.redrawAll();
})
the call of dc.redrawAll() will update not only the chart but also the averageGroup and everything should go fine. If the dropDown has is own dimension just filter this one instead of the chartDim

I'm trying to create a bubble chart with dc.js that will have a bubble for each data row and will be filtered by other charts on the same page. The initial bubble chart is created correctly, but when items are filtered from another chart and added or removed from the group it looks like they are being applied to the wrong group. I'm not sure what I'm messing up on the grouping or dimensions. I've created an example fiddle here
There's simple pie chart to filter on filterColumn, a bubble chart that uses identifer1, a unique field, as the dimension and xVal, yVal, and rVal to display the data, and a dataTable to display the current records.
I've tried other custom groups functions, but switched to the example from the FAQ and still had problems.
var
filterPieChart=dc.pieChart("#filterPieChart"),
bubbleChart = dc.bubbleChart('#bubbleChart'),
dataTable = dc.dataTable('#data-table');
var
bubbleChartDim=ndx.dimension(dc.pluck("identifier1")),
filterPieChartDim=ndx.dimension(dc.pluck("filterColumn")),
allDim = ndx.dimension(function(d) {return d;});
var filterPieChartGroup=filterPieChartDim.group().reduceCount();
function reduceFieldsAdd(fields) {
return function(p, v) {
fields.forEach(function(f) {
p[f] += 1*v[f];
});
return p;
};
}
function reduceFieldsRemove(fields) {
return function(p, v) {
fields.forEach(function(f) {
p[f] -= 1*v[f];
});
return p;
};
}
function reduceFieldsInitial(fields) {
return function() {
var ret = {};
fields.forEach(function(f) {
ret[f] = 0;
});
return ret;
};
}
var fieldsToReduce=['xVal', 'yVal', 'rVal'];
var bubbleChartGroup = bubbleChartDim.group().reduce(
reduceFieldsAdd(fieldsToReduce),
reduceFieldsRemove(fieldsToReduce),
reduceFieldsInitial(fieldsToReduce)
);
filterPieChart
.dimension(filterPieChartDim)
.group(filterPieChartGroup)
...
;
bubbleChart
.dimension(bubbleChartDim)
.group(bubbleChartGroup)
.keyAccessor(function (p) { return p.value.xVal; })
.valueAccessor(function (p) { return p.value.yVal; })
.radiusValueAccessor(function (p) { return p.value.rVal; })
...
;
This was a frustrating one to debug. Your groups and reductions are fine, and that's the best way to plot one bubble for each row, using a unique identifier like that.
[It's annoying that you have to specify a complicated reduction, when the values will be either the original value or 0, but the alternatives aren't much better.]
The reductions are going crazy. Definitely not just original values and zero, some are going to other values, bigger or negative, and sometimes clicking a pie slice twice does not even return to the original state.
I put breakpoints in the reduce functions and noticed, as you did, that the values were being removed from the wrong groups. How could this be? Finally, by logging bubbleChartGroup.all() in a filtered handler for the pie chart, I noticed that the groups were out of order after the first rendering!
Your code is fine. But you've unearthed a new bug in dc.js, which I filed here.
In order to implement the sortBubbleSize feature, we sort the bubbles. Unfortunately we are also sorting crossfilter's internal array of groups, which it trusted us with. (group.all() returns an internal data structure which must never be modified.)
The fix will be easy; we just need to copy the array before sorting it. You can test it out in your code by commenting out sortBubbleSize and instead supplying the data function, which is what it does internally:
bubbleChart.data(function (group) {
var data = group.all().slice(0);
if (true) { // (_sortBubbleSize) {
// sort descending so smaller bubbles are on top
var radiusAccessor = bubbleChart.radiusValueAccessor();
data.sort(function (a, b) { return d3.descending(radiusAccessor(a), radiusAccessor(b)); });
}
return data;
});
Notice the .slice(0) at the top.
Hope to fix this in the next release, but this workaround is pretty solid in case it takes longer.
Here is a fiddle demonstrating the workaround.
I have line chart where I need to show frequency of order executions over the course of a day. These orders are grouped by time interval, for example every hour, using custom reduce functions. There could be an hour interval when there were no order executions, but I need to show that as a zero point on the line. I create a 'fake group' containing all the bins with a zero count...and the initial load of the page is correct.
However the line chart is one of 11 charts on the page, and needs to be updated when filters are applied to other charts. When I filter on another chart, the effects on this particular frequency line chart are incorrect. The dimension and the 'fake group' are used for the dc.chart.
I put console.log messages in the reduceRemove function and can see that there is something wrong...but not sure why.
Any thoughts on where I could be going wrong.
FrequencyVsTimeDimension = crossfilterData.dimension(function (d) { return d.execution_datetime; });
FrequencyVsTimeGroup = FrequencyVsTimeDimension.group(n_seconds_interval(interval));
FrequencyVsTimeGroup.reduce(
function (p, d) { //reduceAdd
if (d.execution_datetime in p.order_list) {
p.order_list[d.execution_datetime] += 1;
}
else {
p.order_list[d.execution_datetime] = 1;
if (d.execution_type !== FILL) p.order_count++;
}
return p;
},
function (p, d) { //reduceRemove
if (d.execution_type !== FILL) p.order_count--;
p.order_list[d.execution_datetime]--;
if (p.order_list[d.execution_datetime] === 0) {
delete p.order_list[d.execution_datetime];
}
return p;
},
function () { //reduceInitial
return { order_list: {}, order_count: 0 };
}
);
var FrequencyVsTimeFakeGroup = ensure_group_bins(FrequencyVsTimeGroup, interval); // function that returns bins for all the intervals, even those without data.
What i want to achieve is:
Have a Master Grid. Clicking on a row of this grid, i want to filter the rows of the ChildGrid.
What i have done so far:
function updateChildGridRows(field, operator, value) {
// get the kendoGrid element.
var gridData = $("#childGrid").data("kendoGrid");
var filterField = field;
var filterValue = value;
// get currently applied filters from the Grid.
var currFilterObj = gridData.dataSource.filter();
// if the oject we obtained above is null/undefined, set this to an empty array
var currentFilters = currFilterObj ? currFilterObj.filters : [];
// iterate over current filters array. if a filter for "filterField" is already
// defined, remove it from the array
// once an entry is removed, we stop looking at the rest of the array.
if (currentFilters && currentFilters.length > 0) {
for (var i = 0; i < currentFilters.length; i++) {
if (currentFilters[i].field == filterField) {
currentFilters.splice(i, 1);
break;
}
}
}
if (filterValue != "") {
currentFilters.push({
field: filterField,
operator: "eq",
value: filterValue
});
}
gridData.dataSource.filter({
filters: currentFilters
}); }
I got this code from the following jsfiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/randombw/27hTK/
I have attached the MasterGrid's Change event to MasterGridSelectionChange() method. From there i am calling my filter method.
But when i click on the MasterGrid's row, all of the rows in my ChildGrid are getting removed.
One thing i can understand is, if i give wrong column name in the filter list, all the rows will be removed. But even though i have given correct ColumnName, my rows are getting deleted.
Sorry for the long post.
Please help me with this issue, as i am stuck with this for almost 4 days!
Thanks.
You can define ClientDetailTemplateId for the master grid and ToClientTemplate() for the Child grid
read Grid Hierarchy for a example
I have 4 charts in dc.js. One of the charts has ordinal data displayed. I want the chart to display the data selected by the user which is working fine. But I want the axis to display ordinal values of only the selected data. Is there any way to do so. I am using
.x(d3.scale.ordinal().domain(group.all()
.map(function(d){
return d.key; })))
and setting
.elasticX(true);
You don't need to set the ordinal domain yourself in dc.js 2.0 and greater.
What is probably happening here is that the bins are still there but they have value zero - crossfilter doesn't remove empty bins.
You might try wrapping your group with this:
function remove_empty_bins(source_group) {
return {
all:function () {
return source_group.all().filter(function(d) {
return d.value != 0;
});
}
};
}
https://github.com/dc-js/dc.js/wiki/FAQ#filter-the-data-before-its-charted
Please help to solve this very annoying problem. I am using a for loop to iterate over an array of data and create multiple grids. It is working well but the filter function is not binding properly (it only binds to the LAST grid created) Here is the code:
// this function iterates over the data to build the grids
function buildTables() {
// "domain" contains the dataset array
for (i = 0; i < domains.length; i++) {
var dataView;
dataView = new Slick.Data.DataView();
var d = domains[i];
grid = new Slick.Grid('#' + d.name, dataView, d.columns, grids.options);
var data = d.data;
// create a column filter collection for each grid - this works fine
var columnFilters = columnFilters[d.name];
// this seems to be working just fine
// Chrome console confirms it is is processed when rendering the filters
grid.onHeaderRowCellRendered.subscribe(function (e, args) {
$(args.node).empty();
$("<input type='text'>")
.data("columnId", args.column.id)
.val(columnFilters[args.column.id])
.appendTo(args.node);
});
// respond to changes in filter inputs
$(grid.getHeaderRow()).delegate(":input", "change keyup", function (e) {
var columnID = $(this).data("columnId");
if (columnID != null) {
// this works fine - when the user enters text into the input - it
// adds the filter term to the filter obj appropriately
// I have tested this extensively and it works appropriately on
// all grids (ie each grid has a distinct columnFilters object
var gridID = $(this).parents('.grid').attr('id');
columnFilters[gridID][columnID] = $.trim($(this).val());
dataView.refresh();
}
});
//##### FAIL #####
// this is where things seem to go wrong
// The row item always provides data from the LAST grid populated!!
// For example, if I have three grids, and I enter a filter term for
// grids 1 or 2 or 3 the row item below always belongs to grid 3!!
function filter(row) {
var gridID = $(this).parents('.grid').attr('id');
for (var columnId in grids.columnFilters[gridID]) {
if (columnId !== undefined && columnFilters[columnId] !== "") {
var header = grid.getColumns()[grid.getColumnIndex(columnId)];
//console.log(header.name);
}
}
return true;
}
grid.init();
dataView.beginUpdate();
dataView.setItems(data);
dataView.setFilter(filter); // does it matter than I only have one dataView instance?
dataView.endUpdate();
grid.invalidate();
grid.render();
In summary, each function seems to be binding appropriately to each grid except for the filter function. When I enter a filter term into ANY grid, it returns the rows from the last grid only.
I have spent several hours trying to find the fault but have to admit defeat. Any help would be most appreciated.
yes, it matters that you have only one instance of dataView. and also sooner or later you will come up to the fact that one variable for all grids is also a bad idea
so add a var dataView to your loop, it should solve the problem
