Reading Cyrillic text from CSV / JSON with d3

I would like to import Cyrillic text from CSV or JSON using d3 (for the purpose of a bubble chart visualisation)

Once loaded with either of the functions:

d3.csv('spendings.csv', function(data) {
  console.log(data[0]);
});

d3.json('spendings.json', function(data) {
  console.log(data[0]);
});

the text

Многопрофилна болница за активно лечение /МБАЛ/ "Света Анна" АД - София

looks something like this in the DOM console:

M�� /��/ "�� " �� - ��

This tells me that the problem is not with the HTML encoding, but rather with the way Cyrillic text is read by d3.js

Solution

I use Cyrillic in D3.

1.HTML:

<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
</head>
