Creating a custom visualization

Before you can implement a custom visualization, you must create a custom visualization.

About this task

The customvis create command generates a new custom visualization from a default template. However, you can specify a specific template on which the new custom visualization is based on. For more information, see the Create command.

Procedure

  1. Open a command-line interface (CLI) in one of your chosen directories and run the following command:
    customvis create CustomVisualization
    • A directory with the name CustomVisualization is created.
    • You can choose another name instead of CustomVisualization. For example, Marimekko, which creates a new directory called Marimekko.
  2. In the CLI change the directory, by running:
    cd CustomVisualization
  3. When you develop a custom visualization, the custom visualizations CLI tools build the sources. The sources for the bundle are located in the /renderer directory.
  4. You can now start implementing the visualization.
