It is very simple, after you recover your data in a JSON, you can send it to javascript D3. Can be using AJAX or not.
Here the library link D3 .
Note, in D3 the codes are already ready, just copy and paste. They are free.
Example:
Make your REST query and retrieve the result in JSON. This your code is already okay.
Here you can follow 2 paths. Either save your JSON as a separate file to read later or save your JSON to a variable to read in the next process.
Creates the desired chart type among many that exist in D3.js by loading the d3.js library and pointing to its data. Either in the file or in the file.
So:
//Digamaos que esse é seu JSON, bem simples
[
{
"name": "Top Level",
"parent": "null",
"children": [
{
"name": "Level 2: A",
"parent": "Top Level",
"children": [
{
"name": "Son of A",
"parent": "Level 2: A"
},
{
"name": "Daughter of A",
"parent": "Level 2: A"
}
]
},
{
"name": "Level 2: B",
"parent": "Top Level"
}
]
}
]
