103 PointsHow do I get d3.csv() or d3.json() to work outside of the workspace?
When I try to use d3.csv() or d3.json() with local files, I get an error in the console. "Cross origin requests are only supported for protocol schemes: http, data, chrome, chrome-extension, https, chrome-extension-resource."
Code:
d3.csv('climate_data.csv', function(data) {
debugger;
});
Or
d3.json('phones.json', function(error, data) {
// do something with the data here
console.log(error);
console.log(data);
});
The files are stored locally.

Hope that helps :)
