Overview

jQuery Mapael is a jQuery plugin based on raphael.js that allows you to display dynamic vector maps.

For example, with Mapael, you can display a map of the world with clickable countries. You can also build simple dataviz by setting some parameters in order to automatically set a color depending on a value to each area of your map and display the associated legend. Moreover, you can plot cities on the map with circles, squares or images by their latitude and longitude. Many more options are available, read the documentation in order to get a complete overview of mapael abilities.

Mapael supports all modern browsers and Internet Explorer 9+. For older versions of IE, you can load jQuery 1.11.x and Raphael.js 2.1.2 as dependencies, most of the jQuery Mapael features should work fine.

Installation

Directly in your page

Note on dependencies: jQuery and Raphael (and Mousewheel, if needed) must be loaded before Mapael in order to work properly.

Note on maps: map files must be loaded after Mapael in order to work properly.

Using CDN

Include in your project page one of these tags:

<script src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery-mapael/2.2.0/js/jquery.mapael.min.js"></script> <script src="//cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/js/jquery.mapael.min.js"></script>

Using self-hosted

Download the latest version and extract jquery.mapael.min.js in your project.

Then, add the script to your page (update the path as needed):

<script src="path/to/jquery.mapael.min.js"></script>

Using a package manager

NPM / Yarn

In your project root, run either commandline:

npm i --save jquery-mapael yarn add jquery-mapael 

However, if you don't need the optional Mousewheel feature (for Zoom feature), then you can use the --no-optional flag to skip optional dependencies.

Use either:

npm i --no-optional jquery-mapael yarn add --no-optional jquery-mapael 

Then in your application:

require('jquery-mapael');

Or, in ES6:

import 'jquery-mapael';

Bower

In your project root, run:

bower install jquery-mapael --save 

Basic code example

Here is the simplest example that shows how to display an empty map of the world :

HTML :

    <div class="container">         <div class="map">Alternative content</div>     </div>

JS :

    $(".container").mapael({         map : {             name : "world_countries"         }     });
