Charts

Choropleth Chart

Region intensity map. Default and Motion variants.

Examples

Default

Cronus region intensity grid. Pass your own regions; a demo grid ships for docs.

tsx

<ChoroplethChart data={CHOROPLETH_DEMO} />

Motion

World map with zoom and a country tooltip.

tsx

import { ChoroplethChart, ChoroplethFeatureComponent, ChoroplethTooltip } from "@cronus-ui/ui/charts";

<ChoroplethChart data={world} aspectRatio="16 / 9" zoomEnabled>
  <ChoroplethFeatureComponent fill="var(--chart-scale-03)" stroke="var(--chart-background)" />
  <ChoroplethTooltip />
</ChoroplethChart>

Installation

Default is a ready-made wrapper from the registry. Motion is the composable engine at @cronus-ui/ui/charts (peer visx + motion).

bash

npx cronus-ui add choropleth-chart

tsx

import { ChoroplethChart } from "@cronus-ui/ui";

Usage

Motion expects a GeoJSON FeatureCollection (Polygon / MultiPolygon). Default is a region grid (`ChoroplethRegion[]`), not a map. Fetch world GeoJSON at runtime — there is no bundled topology.

tsx

import {
  ChoroplethChart,
  ChoroplethFeatureComponent,
  ChoroplethGraticule,
  ChoroplethTooltip,
} from "@cronus-ui/ui/charts";

<ChoroplethChart data={world} aspectRatio="16 / 9" zoomEnabled>
  <ChoroplethGraticule />
  <ChoroplethFeatureComponent
    fill="var(--chart-scale-03)"
    stroke="var(--chart-background)"
    strokeWidth={0.5}
  />
  <ChoroplethTooltip />
</ChoroplethChart>

Components

Motion API — compose these under the chart root. Default wrapper props are in Default API below.

ChoroplethChart

Mercator projection, optional zoom/pan, context for children.

Prop	Type	Default	Description
`data`*	`FeatureCollection`	—	GeoJSON features.
`margin`	`Partial<{ top, right, bottom, left }>`	`{ top: 0, right: 0, bottom: 0, left: 0 }`	Plot margins.
`animationDuration`	`number`	`800`	Enter duration in ms.
`aspectRatio`	`string`	`"16 / 9"`	CSS aspect ratio.
`scale`	`number`	—	Projection scale. Auto from width when omitted.
`center`	`[number, number]`	`[0, 20]`	Center [longitude, latitude].
`zoomEnabled`	`boolean`	`false`	Zoom and pan.
`zoomMin`	`number`	`0.5`	Minimum zoom scale.
`zoomMax`	`number`	`4`	Maximum zoom scale.

ChoroplethFeatureComponent

Country/region paths with hover dim and optional pattern fills.

Prop	Type	Default	Description
`fill`	`string`	—	Solid fill for every feature (overrides getFeatureColor).
`stroke`	`string`	`var(--chart-background)`	Border color.
`strokeWidth`	`number`	`0.5`	Border width.
`fadedOpacity`	`number`	`0.4`	Opacity when another feature is hovered.
`getFeatureColor`	`(feature, index) => string`	—	Per-feature fill.
`patterns`	`ReactNode`	—	visx pattern definitions.
`getFeaturePattern`	`(feature, index) => string \| null`	—	Pattern id for a feature.

ChoroplethGraticule

Latitude / longitude grid.

Prop	Type	Default	Description
`stroke`	`string`	`rgba(255,255,255,0.1)`	Line color.
`strokeWidth`	`number`	`0.5`	Line width.
`step`	`[number, number]`	`[10, 10]`	Step [longitude, latitude] in degrees.

ChoroplethTooltip

Pointer-following tooltip. Defaults to properties.name.

Prop	Type	Default	Description
`content`	`(props) => ReactNode`	—	Custom renderer.
`getFeatureName`	`(feature, index) => string`	—	Name getter.
`getFeatureValue`	`(feature, index) => number`	—	Value getter.
`valueLabel`	`string`	`"Value"`	Label for the value row.
`formatValue`	`(value: number) => string`	—	Value formatter.

Zoom

zoomEnabled turns on wheel/drag. useChoroplethZoom() exposes the visx Zoom instance so you can render +/- buttons outside the SVG.

tsx

const { zoom } = useChoroplethZoom();
<Button onClick={() => zoom?.scale({ scaleX: 1.2, scaleY: 1.2 })}>+</Button>

Color by value

Pass getFeatureColor to bin regions onto --chart-scale-01…05. Keep stroke on --chart-background so borders stay visible.

tsx

<ChoroplethFeatureComponent
  stroke="var(--chart-background)"
  strokeWidth={0.5}
  getFeatureColor={(feature) => {
    const value = Number(feature.properties.value ?? 0);
    if (value > 80) return "var(--chart-scale-05)";
    if (value > 40) return "var(--chart-scale-03)";
    return "var(--chart-scale-01)";
  }}
/>

Data format

Load GeoJSON yourself (for example a world FeatureCollection). Convert TopoJSON with topojson-client if that is your source format — it is not a Cronus dependency.

import type { FeatureCollection, Geometry } from "geojson";

interface FeatureCollection {
  type: "FeatureCollection";
  features: Array<{
    type: "Feature";
    geometry: Geometry;
    properties: { name?: string; id?: string | number; [key: string]: unknown };
  }>;
}

// Default wrapper (not Motion) uses a region list instead:
type ChoroplethRegion = { id: string; name: string; value: number };

Theming

Motion charts read `--chart-*` aliases that map onto Cronus semantic tokens (`--cronus-chart-1`…`--cronus-chart-5`, `--cronus-border`, `--cronus-fg`, surfaces). Override the aliases or the tokens — never palette scales (`bg-zinc-900`). Default wrappers use `ChartConfig` with `var(--cronus-chart-*)` / `var(--cronus-primary)`. Sequential bins use `--chart-scale-01`…`--chart-scale-05` (01 = lowest). Empty regions typically use `var(--muted)` or a mix of `--cronus-surface-base`.

Full token reference: Theming.

Dependencies

Default needs the recharts peer. Motion needs visx (and sometimes d3) as optional peers — install only what this chart uses.

bash

bun add recharts

bash

bun add @visx/geo @visx/responsive @visx/zoom d3-geo motion

.cronus

The same component declared in Cronus. Emitted at build time from the audit fixtures — the kernel renders it as HTML with no React.
