React way to use D3 - ( Python as API )

The Inspiration
Andmap is trying to build new BI product, the tech stacks would be D3 + ReactJS as data visualization frontend, Web API, and Python provides data. As with most new projects, it didn’t take long to figure out the major roadblocks.
D3.js is a JavaScript library for manipulating documents based on data. D3 helps you bring data to life using HTML, SVG, and CSS. D3’s emphasis on web standards gives you the full capabilities of modern browsers without tying yourself to a proprietary framework, combining powerful visualization components and a data-driven approach to DOM manipulation.
In one of our initial discovery sessions, we realized that our application needs to be able to adapt D3 library in ReactJS way. More than that, we prefer utilizing new feature of React - Hooks. Finally, we build  component for each chart and Helpers file for drawing each chart.
Here is sample for map chart:


index.js:



map.js - map chart container -
using useEffect hook

helpers.js - to draw charts

How to trigger mouse event in React

Conclusion

I hope this little tutorial is helpful to anyone who wants to take advantage of the D3 library inside of a React app. If I didn’t explain something well, or if something is wrong with my code, please leave a comment.

for loop in javascript - promise - .eslintrc for "for of"

the vast majority of cases  map ,  forEach ,  find  etc. can be used.  async function printFiles () { const files = await getFilePaths(); await Promise.all(files. map (async (file) => { const contents = await fs.readFile(file, 'utf8') console.log(contents) })); } const inventory = [ { name : 'apples' , quantity : 2 } , { name : 'bananas' , quantity : 0 } , { name : 'cherries' , quantity : 5 } ] ; const result = inventory . find ( ( { name } ) => name === 'cherries' ) ;   function getFirstMatching(array) { for (let item of array) { const result = heavyTransform(item); if (result) { return result; } } } Specifically this shuts down the whole no-restricted-syntax. If you want to cherry-pick, here is the current definition: 'no-restricted-syntax' : [ 'error' , { selector : 'ForInStatement' , message...

setup git account on mac with ssh - push to remote denied with other login

http://burnedpixel.com/blog/setting-up-git-and-github-on-your-mac/#generatenewkey “ SSH  uses public-key cryptography to authenticate the remote computer and allow it to authenticate the user, if necessary. There are several ways to use SSH; one is to use automatically generated public-private key pairs to simply encrypt a network connection, and then use password authentication to log on.” An SSH key basically lets your computer uniquely identify itself when it connects to servers. If Github is aware of the key your computer is using, you won’t have to enter your Github username/password every time you connect. Check for pre-existing SSH keys on your computer Let’s see if your computer has one or more keys already installed: 1 2 # Point the terminal to the directory that would contain SSH keys for your user account. $ cd ~/.ssh If you get the response “No such file or directory”, skip to  Generate a new SSH Key . Otherwise, you’ll need to backup...

fs.writeFile - permission issue on GCP (Google Cloud Run)

error on this: fs . writeFile ( fileName , pdfBytes , err => { if ( err ) { console . log ( err . message ) reject ( err . message ) } else resolve ( fileName ) }) #1 It looks like when deployed into Cloud Run it also requires the extra permission "Service Account Token Creator" to run  getSignedUrl . Locally for some reason this role is not required. #2 Only the directory  /tmp  is writable in Cloud Run. So, change the default write location to write into this directory. However, you have to be aware of 2 things: Cloud Run is stateless, that means when a new instance is created, the container start from scratch, with an empty  /tmp  directory /tmp  directory is an in-memory file system. The maximum allowed memory on Cloud Run is 2Gb, your app memory footprint included. In addition of your file and Airflow, not sure that you will have a lot of space. A final remark. Cloud Run is active only when it...
