Architecture

This map shows business locations from data hosted in Airtable.

Built using Svelte, Leaflet, and Carto.js.

Icons from Maps Icons Collection.

Database overview

All data comes from 'public/data/row.csv', which is pulled every hour using get-data-from-airtable.yml github actions script.

If you would like to adapt this code for your project Duplicate the Airtable base using this link.

Afterwards change AIRTABLE_API_KEY , AIRTABLE_BASE_ID, AIRTABLE_TABLE_NAME on github secrets, or your .env file

Code overview

1. The App component loads the public/data/row.csv into the rows store via the util/importData.js script, which pulls styles from constants.js to set up icon and color.
2. The App component separated into two main components Sidebar and MapView which loads the rows Store.
3. The filter store array filters the rows Store for both RowItems components and MapView
4. When an item is selected by either clicking the element on the map or RowItems, it will set the selectedItem store (selectedItem.select(item)), and show the ItemDetails component.

• Including map and center attributes in the selectedItem.select method will toggle the map to zoom in.
