Package Exports

  • cobe
  • cobe/dist/index.esm.js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (cobe) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

COBE

Use any DOM element as bindable markers.
CSS transitions, animations, filters, interactivity, all just work.

High perf, zero deps, ~5KB.


Quick Start

<canvas
  id="cobe"
  style="width: 500px; height: 500px;"
  width="1000"
  height="1000"
></canvas>
import createGlobe from 'cobe'

let phi = 0
let canvas = document.getElementById("cobe")

const globe = createGlobe(canvas, {
  devicePixelRatio: 2,
  width: 1000,
  height: 1000,
  phi: 0,
  theta: 0,
  dark: 0,
  diffuse: 1.2,
  scale: 1,
  mapSamples: 16000,
  mapBrightness: 6,
  baseColor: [0.3, 0.3, 0.3],
  markerColor: [1, 0.5, 1],
  glowColor: [1, 1, 1],
  offset: [0, 0],
  markers: [
    { location: [37.7595, -122.4367], size: 0.03 },
    { location: [40.7128, -74.006], size: 0.1, color: [1, 0, 0] }, // custom color
  ],
  arcs: [
    {
      from: [37.7595, -122.4367],
      to: [40.7128, -74.006],
      color: [1, 0.5, 0.5], // custom color (optional)
    },
  ],
  arcColor: [1, 0.5, 1],
  arcWidth: 0.5,
  arcHeight: 0.3,
  markerElevation: 0.02,
  onRender: (state) => {
    // Called on every animation frame.
    // `state` will be an empty object, return updated params.
    state.phi = phi
    phi += 0.01
  },
})

// To destroy the instance and bindings:
// `globe.destroy()`

Arcs

Arcs connect two locations on the globe:

arcs: [
  {
    from: [37.7595, -122.4367],
    to: [35.6762, 139.6503],
    color: [1, 0.5, 0.5], // optional, uses arcColor if not set
  },
]

Bindable Markers & Arcs

Markers and arcs can have an id property for CSS Anchor Positioning:

markers: [
  { location: [37.7595, -122.4367], size: 0.03, id: 'sf' },
],
arcs: [
  { from: [37.7595, -122.4367], to: [35.6762, 139.6503], id: 'sf-tokyo' },
]
.marker-label {
  position: absolute;
  position-anchor: --cobe-sf;
  bottom: anchor(top);
  left: anchor(center);
  opacity: var(--cobe-visible-sf, 0);
  filter: blur(calc((1 - var(--cobe-visible-sf, 0)) * 8px));
  transition: opacity 0.3s, filter 0.3s;
}

.arc-label {
  position: absolute;
  position-anchor: --cobe-arc-sf-tokyo;
  bottom: anchor(top);
  left: anchor(center);
  opacity: var(--cobe-visible-arc-sf-tokyo, 0);
}

The globe exposes:

  • --cobe-{id} / --cobe-arc-{id} — CSS anchor names for positioning
  • --cobe-visible-{id} / --cobe-visible-arc-{id} — visibility variable (0 when behind globe, 1 when visible)

Use the visibility variable to drive opacity, blur, scale, or any CSS property for smooth transitions.
