I'm trying to display India's map using D3.js and this geoJSON file. When I run the following HTML file in the browser, the map doesn't get generated, with no error on the console.
I suspect this has something to do with projection because when I remove the projection from the path variable, I do get a tiny map at the top of the svg. I tried Mercator, Albers and other projections but nothing seems to work.
Code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>India</title>
<script src="https://d3js.org/d3.v4.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
//Width and height
var w = 500;
var h = 500;
var projection = d3.geoMercator()
.translate([w/2, h/2])
.scale(500);
//Define default path generator
var path = d3.geoPath()
.projection(projection);
//Create SVG element
var svg = d3.select("body")
.append("svg")
.attr("width", w)
.attr("height", h);
var rectangle = svg.append("rect")
.attr("height", h).attr("width", w)
.attr("fill", "transparent")
.attr("stroke", "black")
.attr("stroke-width", 1);
//Load in GeoJSON data
d3.json("india.json", function(json) {
//Bind data and create one path per GeoJSON feature
svg.selectAll("path")
.data(json.features)
.enter()
.append("path")
.attr("d", path)
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
