Both came from the Driver's console in the gallery's Simple Research tab, and both come from one
gap: where a line SITS in a setup block is not WHEN it runs.
research-map.vue — "Cannot access '_lastFitKey' before initialization", thrown during setup, which
left the map blank. The externalFilters watcher is immediate:true, so it runs while setup is still
on the stack and calls applyFitSlugs() 350 lines below it. The CALL resolved, because a function
declaration is hoisted; its constants are not, so the first read hit their temporal dead zone. A
hoisted function promises that its NAME resolves early, not that its BODY can run early, and that
asymmetry is invisible from both ends: the watcher looks like it only touches the store, and the
constants look like they sit right beside the function that reads them. They and the guard now sit
above the watcher, with a note saying why they cannot live next to applyFitSlugs().
DashboardMapPanel.vue — "onBeforeUnmount is called when there is no active component instance".
A lifecycle registrar closes over Vue's current instance, which exists only while setup is on the
stack, so a hook registered after "await initializeMap()" is silently dropped: a ResizeObserver on
document.body plus a window resize listener outlived the component. Nothing threw and the feature
worked, so it showed only as a studio that slowed down the more tabs a reader had visited. The fix
is not to move the line — the code that creates those handles is past the await either way. The
handles move to setup scope and are torn down in the hook this file already registers correctly,
which is the pattern it was using three lines away for containerRO and attribRO.
research-map.vue held a second copy of the same leak, its scroll-zoom resync listener. The new
gate found that one; reading the file had not.
check:setup-order covers both classes. Its own false positives are the instructive part: 6 hits
down to 1 over three rounds, and every one it dropped was prose or shadowing read as code — an
onBeforeUnmount inside a console.error STRING, the word "table" inside a new Error(...) template
literal in four files, and a destructured byCountry shadowing a computed 220 lines away. So it
blanks comments, string text and template text while keeping ${...}, which is code, and subtracts
every name a span declares for itself. It self-tests on both shipped defects, both fixes and all
three decoys, and exits 3 if an arm goes blind rather than passing quietly.
Source only. doxa-research-map, research-dashboard and dashboard-plus-grid need a rebuild.

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).
