## Installation

To use vector maps in your project, you need to include the jsVectorMap library in your project. You can install it via npm or include it directly from a CDN. The following example demonstrates how to include the jsVectorMap library from a CDN:

```html
<script src="$TABLER_CDN/dist/libs/jsvectormap/dist/js/jsvectormap.min.js"></script>
<script src="$TABLER_CDN/dist/libs/jsvectormap/dist/maps/js/jsvectormap-world.js"></script>
```

## Sample demo

Integrating the vector map into your website is straightforward. Below is a sample implementation for a world map:

```html
<div id="map-world" class="w-100 h-100"></div>
<script>
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function() {
	const map = new jsVectorMap({
		selector: '#map-world',
		map: 'world',
	});
});
</script>
```

Look at the example below to see how the vector map works with a world map.

```html example vendors height="30rem" libs="jsvectormap,jsvectormap-world" background="surface" columns={2} centered
<div class="card">
  <div class="card-body">
    <div class="ratio ratio-16x9">
      <div>
        <div id="map-world" class="w-100 h-100"></div>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

<script>
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function() {
	const map = new jsVectorMap({
		selector: '#map-world',
		map: 'world',
		backgroundColor: 'transparent',
		regionStyle: {
			initial: {
				fill: tabler.getColor('body-bg'),
				stroke: tabler.getColor('border-color'),
				strokeWidth: 2,
			}
		},
		zoomOnScroll: false,
		zoomButtons: false,
	});
	window.addEventListener("resize", () => {
		map.updateSize();
	});
});
</script>
```

## Markers

You can add markers to the map to highlight specific locations. Below is a sample implementation for a world map with markers:

```html example vendors height="30rem" libs="jsvectormap,jsvectormap-world-merc" background="surface" columns={2} centered
<div class="card">
  <div class="card-body">
    <div class="ratio ratio-16x9">
      <div>
        <div id="map-world-markers" class="w-100 h-100"></div>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

<script>
      // @formatter:on
      document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function() {
      	const map = new jsVectorMap({
      		selector: '#map-world-markers',
      		map: 'world_merc',
      		backgroundColor: 'transparent',
      		regionStyle: {
      			initial: {
      				fill: tabler.getColor('body-bg'),
      				stroke: tabler.getColor('border-color'),
      				strokeWidth: 2,
      			}
      		},
      		zoomOnScroll: false,
      		zoomButtons: false,
      		markers: [
      			{
      				coords: [61.524, 105.3188],
      				name: "Russia",
      			},
      			{
      				coords: [56.1304, -106.3468],
      				name: "Canada",
      			},
      			{
      				coords: [71.7069, -42.6043],
      				name: "Greenland",
      			},
      			{
      				coords: [26.8206, 30.8025],
      				name: "Egypt",
      			},
      			{
      				coords: [-14.235, -51.9253],
      				name: "Brazil",
      			},
      			{
      				coords: [35.8617, 104.1954],
      				name: "China",
      			},
      			{
      				coords: [37.0902, -95.7129],
      				name: "United States",
      			},
      			{
      				coords: [60.472024, 8.468946],
      				name: "Norway",
      			},
      			{
      				coords: [48.379433, 31.16558],
      				name: "Ukraine",
      			},
      		],
      		markerStyle: {
      			initial: {
      				r: 4,
      				stroke: '#fff',
      				opacity: 1,
      				strokeWidth: 3,
      				stokeOpacity: .5,
      				fill: tabler.getColor('blue')
      			},
      			hover: {
      				fill: tabler.getColor('blue'),
      				stroke: tabler.getColor('blue')
      			}
      		},
      		markerLabelStyle: {
      			initial: {
      				fontSize: 10
      			},
      		},
      		labels: {
      			markers: {
      				render: function(marker) {
      					return marker.name
      				},
      			},
      		},
      	});
      	window.addEventListener("resize", () => {
      		map.updateSize();
      	});
      });
      // @formatter:off
    </script>
