cloned locally and not working

[kthouz]

I am trying to use your application locally and it doesn't work.
When I copy relevant pieces into my app, I get

Not Found

The requested URL was not found on the server. If you entered the URL manually please check your spelling and try again.

Hi,

I'm not sure what you mean by "locally". This demo (and it's only a demo, proof-of-concept) requires a web server that can execute CGI scripts.
Did you setup such web servers and configured it to run the download.pl file as CGI ?

Hello,
I was wondering if this saving procedure can be performed without web server? I am developing a tool which generates a sankey using d3js library and I would like to save it to pdf.
Many thanks in advance,

I'm not up-to-date with javascript/client-side PDF technologies since d3_export was developed (in 2014).
Perhaps https://github.com/MrRio/jsPDF has gotten much much better and can do it entirely in client-side.

If SVG is sufficient, it's already possible.
If PNG is sufficient, try these: https://github.com/krunkosaurus/simg , http://techslides.com/save-svg-as-an-image
