Integrate with pyecharts

Dependencies

node.js is required and can be installed from its website. I would recommend nvm，because switching in between different versions are made effortless.

With node.js installed, you will need to install echarts-mapmaker

Prepare a js file

makejs comes from echarts-mapmaker. It can do UTF-8 encoding on the geojson and write out to a js file. It is expected that UTF-8 encoding will reduce file size.

makejs The-Forbidden-City.geojson The-Forbidden-City.js "The Forbidden City"

Create a custom registry

Please copy the following content and save as "registry.json" in your current working folder.

{
    "JS_FOLDER": "/",
    "PINYIN_MAP": {},
    "FILE_MAP": {
         "The Forbidden City": "The-Forbidden-City"
    }
}

Host it locally

$ python -m http.server
Serving HTTP on 0.0.0.0 port 8000 ...

You should be able to access http://127.0.0.1:8000/registry.json
