Experiencing difficulties when trying to pan and zoom the data obtained from d3.json within a line chart

I am currently working on developing a trend component that can zoom and pan into data fetched using d3.json. Here is the code I have written so far:

<script>

    var margin = { top: 20, right: 80, bottom: 20, left: 50 },
        width = $("#trendcontainer").width() - margin.left - margin.right,
        height = 500 - margin.top - margin.bottom;

    var format = d3.time.format("%Y-%m-%d").parse;
    var x = d3.time.scale()
        .domain([-width / 2, width / 2])
        .range([0, width]);

    var y = d3.scale.linear()
        .domain([-height / 2, height / 2])
        .range([height, 0]);
    
    // More code here...

</script>

The issue I'm facing is that when zooming or panning, my lines do not interact as expected. They remain static below the zoomable/pannable grid. In addition, one of the lines disappears while attempting to zoom/pan, and an error message appears in the console: Error: Problem parsing d="" - referencing the following snippet, specifically the last line:

function zoomed() {
    svg.select(".x.axis").call(xAxis);
    svg.select(".y.axis").call(yAxis);
    svg.select(".x.grid")
        .call(make_x_axis()
            .tickSize(-height, 0, 0)
            .tickFormat(""));
    svg.select(".y.grid")
        .call(make_y_axis()
            .tickSize(-width, 0, 0)
            .tickFormat(""));
    svg.select(".line")
        .attr("class", "line")
        .attr("d", line);
};

Here's a snippet of the JSON data retrieved from the controller:

[{"Weight":0.0,"Speed":59.9,"Depth":362.24000,"Time":"2014-04-09T10:01:23","Id":0},{"Weight":10.0,"Speed":59.9,"Depth":394.07000,"Time":"2014-04-09T10:01:56","Id":1},
// More data here...
]

Currently, the trend in my view does not allow for the actual lines to zoom or pan. Only the grid overlay (black lines) does;

In order to simplify things, I have considered starting over and following the original example provided here. However, I am finding it challenging to integrate JSON-loaded data into this structure. I hope someone can assist me in resolving these issues :)

Answer №1

Thanks to the help from Lars, I was able to successfully resolve this issue. I made adjustments to my controller and utilized this fiddle which helped with assigning scales to the zoom behavior after setting the domains. This resulted in returning a JSON string to my view like so:

string json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(Model.Trend.ToArray());

return Json(json, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);

The need for serialization arose when errors occurred during zooming/panning on the unserialized array returned to the view.

In addition to these changes, I also had to implement the following steps to ensure functionality:

d3.json('@Url.Action("DataBlob", "Trend", new {id = Model.Unit.UnitId, runId = 5})', function(error, tmparray) {
    var json = JSON.parse(tmparray);
    ...
    )};

Omitting these additional steps led to improper display of my data, causing it to be compressed to the left side of the graph.
