Add geospatial item to chart

[stvdo]

Good morning,

I have now added most properties to an entity and put them on the chart. However, I cannot figure out how to do this for the geospatial entities. Please can you help with this.

The Source is already a Geospatial object, so I expect that this can be easily added as a target property.

My function in ToolView.tsx

const targetProperties: { [key: string]: data.PropertyValue } = {};
        for (const propertyType of entityType.propertyTypes) {

          const sourceProperty = event.properties.find((c: { typeId: any; }) => c.typeId === propertyType.analyzeId);
          if ( sourceProperty ) {
            console.log('Source', sourceProperty);
            console.log('Property', propertyType);
            if ( sourceProperty.value && (propertyType.logicalType === 'singleLineString' || propertyType.logicalType === 'suggestedFromList')){
              console.log('match');
              targetProperties[propertyType.id] = sourceProperty.value;
            } else {
              if ( propertyType.logicalType === 'geospatial'){
                debugger;
                //data.createGeoPoint();
                targetProperties[propertyType.id] = sourceProperty.value;
              }
            }
          }
        }

The error

Hi @sdorresteijn88

Have you had a look at the app.IValueFactory that has helper functions for creating a data.IGeoPoint object from either a pair of latitude and longitude values or from a data.IGeoPointData object.

Cheers

Hi @Anthony-Johnson-i2 ,

I have seen this in the connectors indeed. But I didn't get it to work in the plugin.

import {
  chart,
  data,
  records,
  schema,
  toolview,
} from '@i2analyze/notebook-sdk';
.....
targetProperties[propertyType.id] = data.createGeoPoint(sourceProperty.value.coordinates[1], sourceProperty.value.coordinates[0]);

This gives an error and I don't know what to import.

@sdorresteijn88 Using the value factory is the correct approach - however, note that data is just a typing namespace, there's no code (or at least very little) shipped with the @i2analyze/notebook-sdk, it's mostly just Typescript types. Instead, the value factory can be found on the mutations object that is passed to you in the runXMutations call, e.g.

api.runTrackedMutation((application, mutations) => {
  const geoPoint = mutations.valueFactory.createGeoPoint(lat, long);
  ...
});

Hi @sdorresteijn88 (Steven)

With Tim's last reply to you, did you manage to get this figured out?

If so, are you happy for this issue to be closed?

Cheers

Morning @Tim-Mawson-i2 and @Anthony-Johnson-i2,

Thank you very much for your reply. That's the solution indeed, thanks a lot!
