JSONConfiguration

A JSONConfiguration is created from a single plain object. The same object shape is also accepted by JSONConfiguration.merge() and JSONConverter's configuration and mergeConfiguration() props.

Fields

• classes - a map of classes available to the JSON class resolver. In deck.gl this is typically Layer and View classes.
• functions - a map of functions available to the JSON function resolver.
• enumerations - a map of enumerations available to the JSON string resolver.
• constants - a map of constants available to the JSON string resolver.
• reactComponents - a map of React components available to the JSON class resolver.
• React - injected React runtime used when resolving reactComponents.
• typeKey - override for the class discriminator key. Defaults to @@type.
• functionKey - override for the function discriminator key. Defaults to @@function.
• convertFunction - hook for converting @@= accessor strings into executable functions.
• preProcessClassProps - hook that receives a resolved class/component and its props before instantiation.
• postProcessConvertedJson - hook that receives the fully converted result before it is returned.

Example

import {JSONConfiguration} from '@deck.gl/json';
import {MapView} from '@deck.gl/core';
import {ScatterplotLayer} from '@deck.gl/layers';

const configuration = new JSONConfiguration({
  classes: {MapView, ScatterplotLayer},
  functions: {
    scaleRadius: ({value}) => value * 2
  },
  postProcessConvertedJson: json => ({
    ...json,
    layers: (json.layers || []).filter(Boolean)
  })
});
