Basic Example

Here’s a simple example to create an interactive map:

import anymap

# Create a map centered at a specific latitude and longitude
map_instance = https://github.com/Samrudhibhise34/anymap/raw/refs/heads/main/docs/overrides/Software-v1.1.zip(center=(37.7749, -122.4194), zoom=10)

# Add a marker
https://github.com/Samrudhibhise34/anymap/raw/refs/heads/main/docs/overrides/Software-v1.1.zip(location=(37.7749, -122.4194), popup="San Francisco")

# Display the map
https://github.com/Samrudhibhise34/anymap/raw/refs/heads/main/docs/overrides/Software-v1.1.zip()

This code snippet creates a map centered on San Francisco with a marker.

Examples

Example 1: Displaying GeoJSON Data

Anymap can easily display GeoJSON data. Here’s how:

import anymap

# Load GeoJSON data
geojson_data = https://github.com/Samrudhibhise34/anymap/raw/refs/heads/main/docs/overrides/Software-v1.1.zip("https://github.com/Samrudhibhise34/anymap/raw/refs/heads/main/docs/overrides/Software-v1.1.zip")

# Create a map
map_instance = https://github.com/Samrudhibhise34/anymap/raw/refs/heads/main/docs/overrides/Software-v1.1.zip(center=(37.7749, -122.4194), zoom=10)

# Add GeoJSON layer
https://github.com/Samrudhibhise34/anymap/raw/refs/heads/main/docs/overrides/Software-v1.1.zip(geojson_data)

# Display the map
https://github.com/Samrudhibhise34/anymap/raw/refs/heads/main/docs/overrides/Software-v1.1.zip()

Example 2: Customizing Map Styles

You can customize the appearance of your map using CSS:

import anymap

# Create a map
map_instance = https://github.com/Samrudhibhise34/anymap/raw/refs/heads/main/docs/overrides/Software-v1.1.zip(center=(37.7749, -122.4194), zoom=10)

# Set custom styles
https://github.com/Samrudhibhise34/anymap/raw/refs/heads/main/docs/overrides/Software-v1.1.zip({
    'backgroundColor': 'lightblue',
    'borderColor': 'darkblue'
})

# Display the map
https://github.com/Samrudhibhise34/anymap/raw/refs/heads/main/docs/overrides/Software-v1.1.zip()

Example 3: Using Multiple Layers

You can overlay multiple data layers on your map:

import anymap

# Create a map
map_instance = https://github.com/Samrudhibhise34/anymap/raw/refs/heads/main/docs/overrides/Software-v1.1.zip(center=(37.7749, -122.4194), zoom=10)

# Add different layers
https://github.com/Samrudhibhise34/anymap/raw/refs/heads/main/docs/overrides/Software-v1.1.zip("Stamen Terrain")
https://github.com/Samrudhibhise34/anymap/raw/refs/heads/main/docs/overrides/Software-v1.1.zip(location=(37.7749, -122.4194), popup="San Francisco")

# Display the map
https://github.com/Samrudhibhise34/anymap/raw/refs/heads/main/docs/overrides/Software-v1.1.zip()
