If you want to write script for Vai.io, you should know a few things. Vai.io is a JavaScript library that makes it easy to create interactive data visualizations. It's built on top of the D3.js library and uses the Vega-Lite visualization grammar.
To use Vai.io, you'll need to include the following JavaScript files in your HTML page:
vai.js - The Vai.io library
d3.js - The D3.js library
vega-lite.js - The Vega-Lite library
You can find these files in the Vai.io GitHub repository.
Once you've included the necessary JavaScript files, you can create a Vai.io visualization by creating a Vai.io object and passing it a Vega-Lite specification. For example:
var vlSpec = {
"$schema": "https://vega.github.io/schema/vega-lite/v2.json",
"data": {
"url": "data.json"
},
"mark": "circle",
"encoding": {
"x": {"field": "x", "type": "quantitative"},
"y": {"field": "y", "type": "quantitative"},
"color": {"field": "c", "type": "nominal"}
}
};
var vai = new Vai(vlSpec);
The code above will create a Vai.io visualization with the following properties:
The data for the visualization will be loaded from the data.json file.
The visualization will use circles to mark the data points.
The x-coordinate of the data points will be encoded by the x field in the data.json file.
The y-coordinate of the data points will be encoded by the y field in the data.json file.
The color of the data points will be encoded by the c field in the data.json file.
You can find more information about the Vai.io API in the Vai.io documentation.
