A versatile and lightweight toolkit for building a simple web map.
SMK is designed to make it easy to integrate a map into a web application.
The application needs to include one <script> tag to load the library, define a single <div> tag to contain the map, and call one method to initialize the map.
There is no other code for the application to write, the map functionality is defined completely by a JSON configuration structure.
Here is an example of a complete HTML page that uses SMK to show a map:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>SMK Demo</title>
<script src="smk.js"></script>
<style>
#smk-map-frame {
position: absolute;
top: 0; left: 0; right: 0; bottom: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="smk-map-frame"></div>
<script>
SMK.INIT( { containerSel: '#smk-map-frame' } )
</script>
</body>
</html>Creating the configuration by hand is possible, but an easier way to create a simple SMK application is to use the command-line development tool SMK CLI. This tool lets you initialize a new SMK map application project by answering a few questions. It also gives you an interactive web-based UI to do more detailed configuration of your map.
To see some samples of SMK in action, you can look at the debug folder.
