vue-svg-map

A set of Vue 3 components to display an interactive SVG map.

Demo

Take a look at the live demo!

Installation

npm install --save vue-svg-map

Usage

Install the map you need from svg-maps or use your own map. See maps section for more details.

:earth_africa: Simple SVG Map

This is the base component to display an SVG map.

In a SFC (Single File Component):

• Import SvgMap component from vue-svg-map
• Import the map you want
• Optionally, import vue-svg-map/style.css if you want to apply the default styles

<script setup>
import { SvgMap } from "vue-svg-map";
import Taiwan from "@svg-maps/taiwan";
</script>

<template>
	<SvgMap :map="Taiwan" />
</template>

<style src="vue-svg-map/style.css"></style>

Props

Prop	Type	Default	Description
map	Map	required	Describe SVG map to display. See maps section for more details.
locationAttributes	SVGAttributes | ((location: Location, index: number) => SVGAttributes)	{}	Attributes of each <path>. The function parameters are the location object and the location index.

Events

All the listeners (click, keypress...) are applied to each location.

Slots

There are 2 named slots:

• before which is before the locations
• after which is after the locations

:ballot_box_with_check: Checkbox SVG Map

This is an implementation of SvgMap that behaves like a group of checkboxes. It is based on this WAI-ARIA example to support keyboard navigation and be accessible.

• Import SvgMapCheckbox component from vue-svg-map
• Import the map you want
• Optionally, import vue-svg-map/style.css if you want to apply the default styles

<script setup>
import { ref } from 'vue';
import { SvgMapCheckbox } from "vue-svg-map";
import Taiwan from "@svg-maps/taiwan";

const selectedLocationIds = ref([])
</script>

<template>
	<SvgMapCheckbox v-model="selectedLocationIds" :map="Taiwan" />
</template>

<style src="vue-svg-map/style.css"></style>

Props

Prop	Type	Default	Description
map	Map	required	Describe SVG map to display. See maps section for more details.
modelValue	string[]	[]	List of ids of selected locations. Used for v-model.
locationAttributes	SVGAttributes | ((location: Location, index: number) => SVGAttributes)	{}	Attributes of each <path>. The function parameters are the location object and the location index.

Events

Like for SvgMap all the listeners (click, keypress...) are applied to each location.

Event	Output	Description
update:modelValue	String[]	Emits the new list of ids when a location is selected/unselected.

Slots

Like in SvgMap there are 2 named slots:

• before which is before the locations
• after which is after the locations

Note: inserting focusable elements may break the checkboxes' behaviour.

:radio_button: Radio SVG Map

This is an implementation of SvgMap that behaves like a group of radio buttons. It is based on this WAI-ARIA example to support keyboard navigation and be accessible.

• Import SvgMapRadio component from vue-svg-map
• Import the map you want
• Optionally, import vue-svg-map/style.css if you want to apply the default styles

<script>
import { ref } from 'vue';
import { SvgMapRadio } from "vue-svg-map";
import Taiwan from "@svg-maps/taiwan";

const selectedLocationId = ref(null)
</script>

<template>
	<SvgMapRadio v-model="selectedLocationId" :map="Taiwan" />
</template>

<style src="vue-svg-map/style.css"></style>

Props

Prop	Type	Default	Description
map	Map	required	Describe SVG map to display. See maps section for more details.
modelValue	string	null	Id of selected location. Used for v-model.
locationAttributes	SVGAttributes | ((location: Location, index: number) => SVGAttributes)	{}	Attributes of each <path>. The function parameters are the location object and the location index.

Events

Like for SvgMap all the listeners (click, keypress...) are applied to each location.

Event	Output	Description
update:modelValue	string	Emits the new id when a location is selected.

Slots

Like in SvgMap there are 2 named slots:

• before which is before the locations
• after which is after the locations

Note: inserting focusable elements may break the radio buttons' behaviour.

Maps

Existing maps

All the existing maps are in an independant svg-maps project because they may be useful for other components/projects.

Custom maps

You can modify existing maps or create your own.

Modify a map

1. Import the map to modify
2. Create a new object from this map
3. Pass this new object as map prop of the component

<template>
	<svg-map :map="customTaiwan" />
</template>

<script>
import { SvgMap } from "vue-svg-map";
import Taiwan from "@svg-maps/taiwan";

export default {
	name: "MyMap",
	components: {
		SvgMap
	},
	data() {
		return {
			customTaiwan: {
				...Taiwan,
				label: "Custom map label",
				locations: Taiwan.locations.map(location => {
					// Modify each location to customize id, name or path
				})
			}
		};
	}
};
</script>

It is recommended to not modify the SVG properties (viewBox, path), because it may break the map's display.

Create a map

If you create a new map (other country, city...), feel free to contribute to svg-maps project!
