How to change color of donut chart created using d3.js?

Question

I am very new to d3 charts. I have this code that creates donut charts. However, unable to change colors. could some one help ?

  <body>
    <div id="chart"></div>
    <script src="d3.v3.min.js"></script>
    <script>            

      (function(d3) {
        'use strict';    
        var dataset = [
          { label: 'Abulia', count: 10 }, 
          { label: 'Betelgeuse', count: 20 },
          { label: 'Cantaloupe', count: 30 },
          { label: 'Dijkstra', count: 40 }
        ];

        var width = 360;
        var height = 360;
        var radius = Math.min(width, height) / 3.5;
        var donutWidth = 50;                            // NEW

        var color = d3.scale.category20b();

        var svg = d3.select('#chart')
          .append('svg')
          .attr('width', width)
          .attr('height', height)
          .append('g')
          .attr('transform', 'translate(' + (width / 2) + 
            ',' + (height / 2) + ')');    
        var arc = d3.svg.arc()
          .innerRadius(radius - donutWidth)             // NEW
          .outerRadius(radius);              
        var pie = d3.layout.pie()
          .value(function(d) { return d.count; })
          .sort(null);

        var path = svg.selectAll('path')
          .data(pie(dataset))
          .enter()
          .append('path')
          .attr('d', arc)
          .attr('fill', function(d, i) { 
            return color(d.data.label);
          });

      })(window.d3);
    </script>
  </body>
</html>

I would like to get donut with these colors #65C400 , #2290EE , #FFC096 .

Is there any other way to create a donut chart with custom values and colors ?? someone pls help.

thanks in advance.

Use ordinal color scales.

var color = d3.scale.ordinal()
  .domain(["Abulia", "Betelgeuse", "Cantaloupe","Dijkstra"])
  .range(["#65C400" , "#2290EE" , "#FFC096", "#5e5e5e"]);

 var dataset = [{ label: 'Abulia', count: 10 }, { label: 'Betelgeuse', count: 20 }, { label: 'Cantaloupe', count: 30 }, { label: 'Dijkstra', count: 40 }]; var color = d3.scale.ordinal() .domain(["Abulia", "Betelgeuse", "Cantaloupe","Dijkstra"]) .range(["#65C400" , "#2290EE" , "#FFC096", "#5e5e5e"]); var width = 360; var height = 360; var radius = Math.min(width, height) / 3.5; var donutWidth = 50; // NEW var svg = d3.select('#chart') .append('svg') .attr('width', width) .attr('height', height) .append('g') .attr('transform', 'translate(' + (width / 2) + ',' + (height / 2) + ')'); var arc = d3.svg.arc() .innerRadius(radius - donutWidth) // NEW .outerRadius(radius); var pie = d3.layout.pie() .value(function(d) { return d.count; }) .sort(null); var path = svg.selectAll('path') .data(pie(dataset)) .enter() .append('path') .attr('d', arc) .attr('fill', function(d, i) { return color(d.data.label); });
