Draw arrow inside a datamaps using d3.js

I am new to d3.js , i am trying to create a custom map svg .

With some reference i did a custom map which is shown below.

Arrow pointed at the bottom left of the page

The code snippet for the above output is here.

https://jsfiddle.net/9kbp4h6j/

"use strict"

var svg = d3.select("body").append("svg").append("g").attr("transform", "translate(100,50)")

svg.append("svg:defs")
  .append("svg:marker")
  .attr("id", "arrow")
  .attr("refX", 2)
  .attr("refY", 6)
  .attr("markerWidth", 13)
  .attr("markerHeight", 13)
  .attr("orient", "auto")
  .append("svg:path")
  .attr("d", "M2,2 L2,11 L10,6 L2,2");


var line = d3.svg.line()
  .x(function (point) {
    return point.lx;
  })
  .y(function (point) {
    return point.ly;
  });

function lineData(d) {
  // i'm assuming here that supplied datum 
  // is a link between 'source' and 'target'
  var points = [{
      lx: d.source.x,
      ly: d.source.y
    },
    {
      lx: d.target.x,
      ly: d.target.y
    }
  ];
  return line(points);
}

var path = svg.append("path")
  .data([{
    source: {
      x: 0,
      y: 0
    },
    target: {
      x: 80,
      y: 80
    }
  }])
  .attr("class", "line")
  //.style("marker-end", "url(#arrow)")
  .attr("d", lineData);
//var arrow = svg.append("svg:path")
//.attr("d", "M2,2 L2,11 L10,6 L2,2");


console.log(d3.svg.symbol())

var arrow = svg.append("svg:path")
  .attr("d", d3.svg.symbol().type("triangle-down")(10, 1));


arrow.transition()
  .duration(2000)
  .ease("linear")
  .attrTween("transform", translateAlong(path.node()))
//.each("end", transition);


// Returns an attrTween for translating along the specified path element.
function translateAlong(path) {
  var l = path.getTotalLength();
  var ps = path.getPointAtLength(0);
  var pe = path.getPointAtLength(l);
  var angl = Math.atan2(pe.y - ps.y, pe.x - ps.x) * (180 / Math.PI) - 90;
  var rot_tran = "rotate(" + angl + ")";
  return function (d, i, a) {
    console.log(d);

    return function (t) {

I have a marker which is attached to the body , but the actual output what i need is,

  1. The arrow must be starting from the bubble shown in the image
  2. It should end on some random directions so that a popup template box can be added to describe the actual location.

So at last the actual output what i need should look somewhat like this.

Arrow pointed out from each and every location

Any help appreciated.

Solution

  • Lines can be individually customized by including 2 fields in data: arrowDirectionAngle and arrowLineLength. 

    "use strict"

var line = d3.svg.line()
    .x(function (point) {
        return point.lx;
    })
    .y(function (point) {
        return point.ly;
    });

function lineData(d) {
    // i'm assuming here that supplied datum 
    // is a link between 'source' and 'target'
    var points = [{
        lx: d.source.x,
        ly: d.source.y
    },
    {
        lx: d.target.x,
        ly: d.target.y
    }
    ];
    return line(points);
}

// Returns an attrTween for translating along the specified path element.
function translateAlong(path) {
    var l = path.getTotalLength();
    var ps = path.getPointAtLength(0);
    var pe = path.getPointAtLength(l);
    var angl = Math.atan2(pe.y - ps.y, pe.x - ps.x) * (180 / Math.PI) - 90;
    var rot_tran = "rotate(" + angl + ")";
    return function (d, i, a) {
        //console.log(d);

        return function (t) {
            var p = path.getPointAtLength(t * l);
            return "translate(" + p.x + "," + p.y + ") " + rot_tran;
        };
