History

Doxa Maps 74d519686d Gospel map: the gap is a hole, the legend scrolls, the prose folds THE DOTS. The old comment claimed all three pin colours sat apart from the clay country ramp. For the one that matters it was false: tier 0 was #7d3b30 and the darkest country fill is #7d3b30 — the same colour, contrast 1.00. In exactly the countries with 40+ groups having nothing, the pins that matter most dissolved into their own country. Hue alone cannot fix it, because a choropleth and its pins compete for the same range at every zoom. So the states now differ in FORM: a group with nothing is a HOLE — white core, thick oxblood rim — and it is the largest mark on the map and drawn on top. Some resource is a solid sage dot; Scripture and film is a small dark dot that recedes. A blurred white halo sits under every pin so a dot never touches its fill directly. Two components, because one can always be beaten by a background. Measured against all four fills: on the lightest the white core is 1.38 and the rim 6.00; on the darkest the rim is 1.00 and the core 8.27. Worst case across the ramp is 3.64, above the 3:1 that graphical objects need. The mark cannot disappear. The legend swatch is a hole too — a filled dot there would teach the wrong symbol. THE LEGEND overflowed the bottom of the page. It is absolutely positioned inside the map, so its height was whatever its content happened to be. Capped to the map's own height and scrolled inside — the container's height, not the viewport's, because this leaf is embedded and vh would break on any partner page that gives the map a fixed box. THE WORDS. 232 words of English caveat sat above the three short translated instruction lines that are the actual instruction set: what a dot is, what "none found" does not mean, that a country is tappable. Every one of those 232 words is true and load-bearing and none is needed before you act. They are folded behind one summary, not deleted. They stay English by the standing decision on prose, so folding costs nothing to translate and takes 232 words off first sight.		2026-09-26 04:37:17 +00:00

README.md

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 .vue profile is the Vue instance for that map) and that map's own non-reusable components (in src/). Nothing here leaks to another map.
Many maps per bundle. The bundler bundles one map or many — add another flat .vue and 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 profile field — 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 in plugin-designs/<your-map>/src/colors/ (start from template-bundle/src/colors/example-mode.js). Never edit @map/colors/ to recolor your map.
API — your map reads its data from the profile-config on the page, so the same bundle points at different data with no rebuild. DataSourceManager accepts csv (bundled file), api (one JSON URL), or rest-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/. Use useI18n() for strings and RTL_LOCALES for 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 .vue per bundle (simplest).
Parameterized — one profile, behavior driven by profile-config props (e.g. tabs[]).
Nested — one profile that renders others (workbench-style, like doxa-research-map).
