Hi, is it possible to use techanjs when using requireJS?

Upon initial load immediately get this error.

Hi Brian, I did see that post, but I am not using web pack or babel. Although I am not opposed to using babel, is it required for this thing to run? Could I pay you to help me take a look at this thing?

Guys take a look to the https://github.com/andredumas/techan.js/pull/220 hope this helps I've created a branch on my fork called modules to be able to use techan as ES6 module in my project. Since I don't think the pull request will be included I've checked out that branch to a subfolder of my project and then simply: import { techan } from './techan/techan';

@overwatch13 had the same issue as you did. i ended up cloning this repo and editing the src/techan.js.

First, remove the following lines:

// If running in browser (window !undefined), assume d3 available
if('undefined' != typeof window) _d3 = window.d3;
else if('object' == typeof module) _d3 = require('d3'); // else we're in the only other supported mode: v8/node
else throw "Unsupported runtime environment: Could not find d3. Ensure defined globally on window, or available as dependency.";

Then change

var _d3;

to

var _d3 = require('d3');

Generate dist/techan.js anew and require it. Done!

JS really is annoying when it comes to conventions. Hope this lib is worth it.
