Hi everyone, this isn't quite ready for public consumption yet, but based on Mike Bostock's really cool implementation of zoomable circular treemaps (on bl.ocks.org), I've been working on a widget that can generate and render diagrams like the following one:
<https://i.imgur.com/29Kqoa7.png> (Screen recording <https://i.imgur.com/ncYVCu6.mp4> of the same diagram in action). The motivation behind this is to have dynamically generated diagrams which can provide a "bird's eye view" on larger hierarchies of tiddlers inside a TiddlyWiki. The diagrams display hierarchies as layouts of nested circles. These hierarchies are automatically discovered by recursively following TW links or tags, starting from a root tiddler. Usually, leaf nodes in circular treemaps are different in their size, which can be used to visualize some tiddler properties, like a tiddler's character count, or the number of links, number of backlinks, or number of tags each tiddler has. The leaf node size can also be a uniform value for all circles. There are a few remaining problems, though. The diagrams currently won't always update when a new tiddler is created and should show up, but I think this can be fixed. Also, the tree builder should be a reusable component, so instead of one plugin this should be split up into two dependent plugins, one for the diagram widget, and one for the tree builder. Unfortunately, there's also a small amount of code that is common to both components, and I have no good idea how to not duplicate these parts. If anyone feels inclined to try this out, here's an expiring link: http://viewtransform.net/d3trees/d3trees-preview.html. I'll leave this up for a few days.
