jVectorMap for the Rails asset pipeline
Add it to your Gemfile
:
gem 'jvectormap-rails', '~> 1.0.0'
You can add jvectormap-rails to your application.js
file using a require statement like this:
//= require jvectormap
To add support for whatever maps you want to use, include them from the jvectormap/maps
path:
//= require jvectormap
//= require jvectormap/maps/us_merc_en
The basic pattern is {country}-{region}_{city}_{projection}_{language}
. For example, the map us-il-chicago_mill_en
has a country of us
(United States), region of il
(Illinois), city of chicago
, projection of mill
(Miller), and a language of en
(English). Other common projections include Mercator (merc
), and Albers equal area (aea
).
jvectormap-rails supports precompiling individual maps. Add an initializer to your app, eg. config/initializers/jvectormap.rb
:
JVectorMap::Rails.precompile_maps << "us_merc_en"
Get a list of all available maps by running this from within your Rails app's root:
bundle exec rake jvectormap:maps
