How i can put SVG external file with d3.select("#mysvg").append()... ?
Hi,
I know the question is kinda far in the past but perhaps it'll help someone:
The way I did it was (note that this is d3v5):
d3.svg('external.svg').then((svg) => {
//the external svg looks like this: [...]<svg><g>[...]</g></svg> so I select the g element and inject it into my svg
const gElement = d3.select(svg).select('g');
d3.select('#mysvg').node().appendChild(gElement.node());
});
With d3.select().append() it did not work in my case.
I don't know if my approach is best practice but it certainly works.
