SPEC-LIBRARY-CURATION.md's first migration, in the order the shepherd approved.
Source only; studio rebuilds (rule 5B — library/ plus eight other owners' plugins).
THE ASYMMETRY, which is why 12 sites each solved it or failed at it separately:
Mapbox getProjection() -> { name } setProjection('mercator')
MapLibre getProjection() -> { type } | undefined setProjection({ type: 'mercator' })
Passing the Mapbox shape to MapLibre THROWS. Measured on regions-dashboard, where
the throw aborted the camera fly so a region dashboard never framed its region.
WHAT THE 12 SITES WERE DOING:
· NINE passed a bare string, so on MapLibre the projection silently never changed.
Eight swallowed the throw in a try/catch; doxa-simple-map.vue:1244 did NOT, so
there it threw uncaught.
· TWO had solved it independently and differently: pplr-data-maps'
setProjectionFor() (instance-tested — the correct one, and the shape adopted)
and regions-dashboard's local pair (config-derived, which is weaker: it trusts
what the page was configured with rather than what the map IS).
· ONE probed by exception, trying the object form and falling back on throw.
The helper reads the engine from the INSTANCE, never from config, because a page can
hold a map built by the other engine. Both functions return something observable —
setProjectionOn returns whether it applied, projectionOf returns null rather than
throwing — on upg100-plugin's argument that a precondition which bails without
recording it is indistinguishable from the request never arriving.
pplrData.setProjectionFor stays as a delegating named export so its three views need
no change.
GATE: _chk-c2-projection-helper-equivalence.mjs, 20 assertions. It runs all THREE old
patterns and the helper against the same stub maps and compares outcomes, rather than
testing the helper alone. Controls prove pattern A really does fail on MapLibre and
leave the projection untouched, and that the bare string really throws — so the
"equivalence" claim has something to be equivalent to. A NEG control catches a helper
that reports success it did not achieve.
★ I DESTROYED 984 LINES OF ANOTHER TEAM'S CODE GETTING HERE, and only the build caught
it. My import-inserting script did `s[:at] + IMPORT` and never appended `s[at:]`, so
every file where the import was ADDED rather than extended was truncated at its last
import line: MapCell.vue -458, FlowerClusters.vue -334, lang-cluster.vue -192.
check:no-free-identifiers PASSED on all three, because a truncated script block is
still valid script. Restored from HEAD and redone with an assertion that a migration
must change the line count by exactly +1 and never remove a line — which is the check
that would have caught it in the first second.
Verified after: all 9 affected bundles build, both gates green, and a per-file line
delta on all 13 changed files with the only negative being the 2 lines I deliberately
deleted from RegionCountryMap when its local pair became an import.

plugin-designs/ — where YOUR maps live
The shared template lives in ../library/ (aliased @map) — you never edit it per-map.
You build your map by making a folder here, plugin-designs/<your-map>/, and composing the
template's building blocks. Your folder is yours (colors, API, i18n); the template is shared
(Apache-2.0, propagated to every map on the next build).
Shared vs. yours — the balance
library/ (@map) ── SHARED, reusable, parameterized ──► legend · map · map-controls
│ (every map reuses these)
│ imported by
▼
plugin-designs/<your-map>/ ── YOURS ──► the map's "main" class (the .vue profile = the Vue
│ instance for that map)
└── src/ ── YOURS ──► this map's OWN non-reusable components, colors, API, utils
One bundle can hold as many maps as you want — add another .vue profile and rebuild.
- Reusable →
library/. The legend, the map, the map-controls are shared, parameterized components every map reuses. Fix once, every map benefits. Never edit it to customize one map. - This map's own →
plugin-designs/<your-map>/. It holds two things: the map's "main" class (each.vueprofile is the Vue instance for that map) and that map's own non-reusable components (insrc/). Nothing here leaks to another map. - Many maps per bundle. The bundler bundles one map or many — add another flat
.vueand rebuild.
Production or experimental — every profile declares itself
Every app profile is one of two things, and experimental profiles are unlimited and encouraged — create as many as you need:
- Experimental, not built: prefix the folder with
_— the build skips it; it just sits in code. Zero cost, zero risk. - Experimental, built: builds normally, but it belongs in the Experimental section of the power app's layout (nav section) — never embedded on partner surfaces.
- Production: a real product — main sections of the power app + individually embeddable.
(The power app = the SPA layout that composes all profiles into one application.)
The pattern in one picture
plugin-designs/<your-map>/ ← one FOLDER = one BUNDLE, named after the folder
├── index.js ← entry: registers the custom element, finds the profiles
├── overview.vue ← one .vue = one PROFILE (flat in the folder — no profiles/ subfolder)
└── detail.vue ← another profile in the SAME bundle
builds to ─────────────► public/dx-maps/<your-map>/<your-map>.js (one file)
- Folder name = bundle name. Folders starting with
_or.are skipped (handy for WIP). - Each
.vue= one profile (one map screen). One bundle can hold many. - Pick the profile at embed time with the
profilefield — every profile shares one bundle:
<script src="/dx-maps/<your-map>/<your-map>.js"></script>
<your-map profile-config='{"profile":"overview","tk":"pk.eyJ..."}'></your-map>
<your-map profile-config='{"profile":"detail","tk":"pk.eyJ..."}'></your-map>
Add a map — three steps
# 1. create the folder + one profile
mkdir -p plugin-designs/<your-map>
# index.js ← copy doxa-simple-map/index.js, rename the tag
# <name>.vue ← your screen, built from @map/* blocks (flat in the folder)
# 2. build
npm run build # → public/dx-maps/<your-map>/<your-map>.js
# (just this one: BUNDLE=<your-map> npm run build:bundle)
# 3. embed the script tag + element (dev staging at `npm run dev` shows a paste-ready snippet)
Your three things (everything else is shared)
- Colors — how pins are colored. Pick one the template ships (
getColorStrategy('language-family')), or drop your own inplugin-designs/<your-map>/src/colors/(start fromtemplate-bundle/src/colors/example-mode.js). Never edit@map/colors/to recolor your map. - API — your map reads its data from the
profile-configon the page, so the same bundle points at different data with no rebuild.DataSourceManageracceptscsv(bundled file),api(one JSON URL), orrest-api(a live REST endpoint, the default). Prefer the real API over inlined JSON. - i18n — the template ships 11 base locales in
@map/i18n/locales/. UseuseI18n()for strings andRTL_LOCALESfor right-to-left; add or override strings from your own profile.
The one hosting variable
The only thing that changes between hosting modes is the <script src>: a relative path when
your own site serves the file, or an absolute CDN URL when a partner site serves it. The bundle
is identical either way. See ../documentation/CONTRIBUTING.md for the two CDN modes and partner-site embedding.
Profile patterns (mix freely)
- Individual — one
.vueper bundle (simplest). - Parameterized — one profile, behavior driven by
profile-configprops (e.g.tabs[]). - Nested — one profile that renders others (workbench-style, like
doxa-research-map).
