Highmaps with Vaadin?

Hi,

is there plan to integrate Highmaps from
http://www.highcharts.com/products/highmaps
into Vaadin Charts or as an extra addon?
It looks quite good with the possibilities it offers. Furthermore Vaadin already uses Highcharts for the good VaadinCharts add-on.
For the meantime, which alternative would you recommend?

Hi,

I haven’t heard of any official decisions to create an official wrapper for it by Vaadin Ltd. But the API is pretty simple so it should be rather easy task to create a server side wrappers for it.

If you are looking for alternatives, with normal slippy map add-ons like
v-leaflet
, you can replicate most essential features.

Is it so there is still no plan for highmap? Highmap looks very neat (for chat purpose) compare to other worldmap library.

Hi Zhiyi,
This has been asked so many times that I decided to write an example of how this kind of choropleth maps can be built with v-leaflet. I based it on a related raw Leaflet example.
Source code example is in github
.

And it produces a map like this:

There could still be couple of things one could do to stylish the example, but I hope you can get to the right track with this example. Let me know if you have any additional question.

cheers,
matti
