I am learning d3. There are certain ways of loading the data in d3 js. But all of them seem to make a HTTP GET. In my scenario, I already have the json data in a string. How
The answer from chumkiu worked great for me but needed a couple of tweaks - in the latest version of the d3 bubble chart, you need to define root rather than json, as in
root = JSON.parse( myjson );
Alternatively, you could replace "root" with "json" in the rest of the code of course. :-)
For anyone coming to this answer with questions about d3 node-link trees that utilize local data sets, this answer worked great for me - many thanks to the contributors on this page.
