How to deploy D3 Library in OBIEE 12C

Question

Hi Gurus,

Any specific steps on how to deploy d3 library  in OBIEE 12C.

When I go to Gitbub https://github.com/d3/d3  and download the zip file I am not seeing d3.js files in it. Any Suggestion is appreciated.

Also What path Should I use to deploy the d3 Library in 12C ?

What I am trying to do is feed my Hierarchy data from OBIEE to create this chart http://bl.ocks.org/d3noob/8375092

Thanks

Venkat

Hi Venkat,

Did you read the README.md ?

They tell you exactly how to install (so what to download).

Making a long story short: https://github.com/d3/d3/releases/tag/v4.3.0  (current release) and you find the link to d3.zip and there inside you can't really miss the file.

To deploy D3 on your OBIEE 12c you have 2 options:

A) load the library directly from d3js.org (as the install part of the README.md cover) but you will need to configure CSP in your instanceconfig.xml

B)  add it to a folder deployed on your OBIEE 12c weblogic (so same domain => no CSP), historically this folder has always been analyticsRes used for custom styles and skins. The doc cover how to deploy this folder: Customizing the Oracle BI Web User Interface (Approach 2)
