Widgets
A set of advanced widgets, which allow not only a visual representation but a rich interaction with data & map layers, such as filtering or an automatic data refresh on viewport change, thanks to the connection with the CARTO slice on redux.
This package,
@carto/react-widgets
contains the widgets business logic and the @carto/react-ui
package contains the user interface components. The UI is decoupled from the business logic so you can provide your own user interface or modify the business logic. To review interactively the UI for the widgets, check the Storybook catalogue.Renders a
<BarWidget />
component, binded to a source at redux. From a data perspective, the BarWidget would present a behaviour equivalent to CategoryWidget (groups or ‘categories’ from a column, with an aggregated calculation), but with a different UI that uses vertical bars instead of horizontal bars.- Input:
Param | Type | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|
props | Object | | |
props.id | string | | ID for the widget instance. |
props.title | string | | Title to show in the widget header. |
props.dataSource | string | | ID of the data source to get the data from. |
props.column | string | | Name of the data source’s column to get the data from. |
props.operation | string | | Operation to apply to the operationColumn. Must be one of those defined in AggregationTypes object. |
[props.operationColumn] | string | Array<string> | | (optional) Name of the data source’s column to operate with. If not defined, same as column . If multiple columns are provided, they will be combined using the operation specified with the joinOperation property. Note: support for multiple columns is only available beginning with v1.3 |
[props.joinOperation] | string | | Operation applied to aggregate multiple operation columns into a single one. Must be one of those defined in AggregationTypes object. Note: this property is only available beginning with v1.3 |
[props.global] | bool | false | (optional) Indicates whether the widget is using the global mode. |
[props.animation] | bool | true | (optional) Indicates whether the widget update is animated or jumps directly to the new state. |
[props.formatter] | function | | (optional) formatterCallback: Function to format each value returned. |
[props.labels] | Object | {} | (optional) Overwrite category labels. |
[props.filterable] | bool | true | (optional) Indicates whether filtering capabilities are enabled or not. |
[props.onError] | function | | (optional) errorCallback: Function to handle error messages from the widget. |
[props.wrapperProps] | Object | | |
[props.noDataAlertProps] | Object | { title: 'No data available', body: 'There are no results for the combination of filters applied to your data. Try tweaking your filters, or zoom and pan the map to adjust the Map View.' } | (optional) Message (title and body) to show when there is no data available for the widget. |
[props.droppingFeaturesAlertProps] | Object | { body: 'Data for this widget is not available at this zoom level. Zoom in to get data from features in the map.' } | (optional) Extra props to pass to the NoDataAlert component when features have been dropped in the data source |
- Example:In this example, the widget would display the SUM of population for all the countries, grouped by continent:
import { BarWidget } from "@carto/react-widgets";
const customFormatter = (value) => `${value} people`;
return (
<BarWidget
id="populationByContinent"
title="Population by continent"
dataSource="countriesSourceId"
column="continent"
operationColumn="population"
operation={AggregationTypes.SUM}
formatter={customFormatter}
onError={console.error}
/>
);
// The operationColumn wouldn't be required if using AggregationTypes.COUNT, to count the number of countries per continent
Available beginning with v1.3
You can also make calculations on widgets using multiple columns. For instance, if you are working with a dataset that contains population data disaggregated by gender:
population_m
and population_f
, you can use an array in operationColumn
and sum the values from both columns using the joinOperation
property.import { BarWidget } from "@carto/react-widgets";
const customFormatter = (value) => `${value} people`;
return (
<BarWidget
id="populationByContinent"
title="Population by continent"
dataSource="countriesSourceId"
column="continent"
operationColumn={["population_m", "population_f"]}
joinOperation={AggregationTypes.SUM}
operation={AggregationTypes.SUM}

Renders a
<FeatureSelectionWidget />
component. The widget allows the user to draw a shape on the map and apply a filter to select the features within the shape. Once a shape has been drawn, it can be selected and modified by adding/removing vertices or translated to a new location. By default the mask is active but it can be disabled temporarily and re-enabled again.There are different selection modes supporting different shapes. The mode selected by default is
FEATURE_SELECTION_MODES.POLYGON
. If you want to choose a different default selection mode, you can set the featureSelectionMode
prop in the initialStateSlice
.If you want to use this widget in your app, you need to do two different things:
- 1.Add the
<FeatureSelectionWidget>
component to the view where you want to have it available. If you are using one of the CARTO for React templates and you want to use it in all of your views, you can add it to the<MapContainer>
component. - 2.Add the
FeatureSelectionLayer
to your layers list. If you are using one of the CARTO for React templates, you need to add it to thesrc/components/layers/index.js
file like this:
import { FeatureSelectionLayer } from '@carto/react-widgets';
export const getLayers = () => {
return [
...,
FeatureSelectionLayer(),
];
};
- Input:
Param | Type | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|
props | Object | | |
[props.className] | string | | (optional) Material-UI withStyle class for styling |
[props.selectionModes] | Array<FEATURE_SELECTION_MODES> | [FEATURE_SELECTION_MODES.CIRCLE, FEATURE_SELECTION_MODES.LASSO_TOOL, FEATURE_SELECTION_MODES.POLYGON, FEATURE_SELECTION_MODES.RECTANGLE] | Available selection modes. |
[props.editModes] | EDIT_MODES | [EDIT_MODES.EDIT] | Available edit modes. |
[props.tooltipPlacement] | string | 'bottom' |
The
FeatureSelectionLayer
accepts the following optional props:Param | Type | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|
props | Object | | |
[props.eventManager] | EventManager | nebula.gl event manager | (optional) This prop allows using a different event manager instead of the one provided by nebula.gl. It is used for integration with other mapping libraries like Google Maps JavaScript API. |
[props.mask] | bool | true | Indicates whether to apply a mask or not to hide the features outside the shape drawn by the user. |
- Example:In this example, we add a
FeatureSelectionWidget
supporting just two selection modes using a specific CSS class.
import { FeatureSelectionWidget } from "@carto/react-widgets";
import { FEATURE_SELECTION_MODES } from '@carto/react-core';
return (
<FeatureSelectionWidget
className={myCSSClassName}
selectionModes={[FEATURE_SELECTION_MODES.POLYGON, FEATURE_SELECTION_MODES.RECTANGLE]}
/>
);

You can also make calculations on widgets using multiple columns. For instance, if you are working with a dataset that contains revenue data disaggregated by year:
revenue_2021
and revenue_2022
, you can use an array in column
and sum the values from both columns using the joinOperation
property.import { FormulaWidget } from "@carto/react-widgets";
const customFormatter = (value) => `${value} $`;
return (
<FormulaWidget
id="averageRevenue"

Renders a
<LegendWidget />
component. The widget can display a switch to show or hide a layer and a legend for the layer. The legend representation depends on the legend type. You can check the available LEGEND_TYPES
