vega-embed

Publish Vega visualizations as embedded web components.

Build Process

To build vega-embed.js and view the test examples, you must have npm installed.

• Run npm install in the vega-embed folder to install dependencies.
• Run npm run build. This will invoke browserify to bundle the source files into vega-embed.js, and then uglify-js to create the minified vega-embed.min.js.
• Run a local webserver (e.g., python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000) in the vega-embed folder and then point your web browser at the test directory (e.g., http://localhost:8000/test/).
