Doxa Maps 7568c12610 The packet prints too, through the shared renderer this map was quietly duplicating
Driver-lens audit card 2: the packet button downloaded packet.pdf while its poster sibling, two
functions above it, opened the print dialog. Same map, same menu, two different answers to "export".

The fix is not to wrap that PDF in a dialog. A PDF blob cannot go in the <img> the in-place print frame
uses, and every workaround — embed, object, the browser's own viewer — prints on some engines and
silently does nothing on others, which is the dead-button class this file has already paid for twice.

usePosterPrints.printPacket ALREADY does this: the same packet, authored as HTML with @page rules and
printed in place. This map was running a private second implementation of a shared product feature, with
jspdf behind it. Routing to the shared one deletes the duplicate, drops jspdf from this bundle, and the
packet gains the pages the shared renderer has that the local one never did — the life calendar, the
funnel and the prayer wheel, in the Driver's own page order.

★ AN EXPLICIT ADAPTER, because the mismatch would have been SILENT. The renderer reads slug / name /
population / religion / country_code, and usePosterPrints reads image_url; this map's normalized rows
carry country and imageUrl in camelCase. Handed over unmapped, the packet would have printed with blank
names and missing photos rather than failing — so the mapping sits in one visible place instead of
either side renaming its vocabulary.

Page 1 keeps the LIVE map rather than a fetched poster: this half is the one that knows what is on
screen. The shared renderer interpolates mapSvg as raw markup, so the PNG this map already knows how to
produce rides in as an <img>, as a data URL because the print frame is a separate document and an object
URL created here would be revoked out from under it. If that render fails the packet still prints — a
cover without the map beats no packet, which is the call the shared composable already documents.

Dead code removed with it: the download helper that served packet.pdf, and the lazy-import cache for the
composable this no longer uses. Neither export hands over a file now.

Verified: gates:pre 12/12. NOT verified here, and it needs to be before anyone calls it done: I cannot
see a rendered packet. The specific risk is the adapter — a field I mapped wrongly prints blank rather
than failing. rega should print one and look at the people-group cards before this is released.

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).
