Evan Rusackas 5efb93b99b feat(country-map): manifest-driven control choices
Replace hardcoded WORLDVIEW / COUNTRY / REGION_SET / COMPOSITE choice
tables in controlPanel with options derived from the build pipeline's
manifest.json. Adding a new entry to a YAML config + re-running
./build.sh now populates the control automatically; no plugin code
change needed.

Build script: also writes manifest.json to the plugin's
src/data/manifest.json so controlPanel can `import` it synchronously
(no async fetch needed at chart-edit time). Data files (the actual
GeoJSONs) still live only at superset/static/assets/country-maps/ —
we don't want to bundle 17MB of choropleth data into the JS payload.

Lookup helpers preserve human-friendly labels:
- WORLDVIEW_LABELS — maps NE worldview codes (ukr, default, ind, ...)
  to friendly names ("Ukraine (default — Crimea as Ukrainian)" etc.);
  unmapped codes render as the raw code
- COUNTRY_LABELS — ISO_A3 → English country name (~85 entries);
  formatCountry renders as "France (FRA)"; unmapped codes render raw
- REGION_SET_LABELS / COMPOSITE_LABELS — same pattern

Manifest's regional_aggregations array is grouped by country into
the {country: [(set_id, label), ...]} shape the control panel needs.

@superset-ui/plugin-chart-country-map

Modern country/region choropleth chart for Apache Superset. Replaces legacy-plugin-chart-country-map.

Status

🚧 Work in progress — see SIP_DRAFT.md in this directory for the full design rationale and implementation phases. This plugin lives in the same PR as the build pipeline that produces its data; both are currently scaffolded and being progressively fleshed out.

What it offers vs. the legacy plugin

Legacy New
Backend endpoint explore_json chart/data (modern)
Disputed-region handling Hardcoded NE editorial Configurable per-deployment + per-chart worldview (NE _ukr default)
Subdivisions level Country-only Country (Admin 0) and Subdivisions (Admin 1) and Aggregated regions
Data pipeline Jupyter notebook Reproducible script + YAML configs (see scripts/)
Per-deployment customization Fork required superset_config.COUNTRY_MAP block + chart-level controls
Composite maps (e.g. France-with-Overseas) Hardcoded in notebook Declarative in composite_maps.yaml
Regional aggregations (NUTS-1 etc.) Hardcoded Declarative in regional_aggregations.yaml

Layout

src/
  index.ts          — package entry; exports CountryMapChartPlugin and types
  types.ts          — TypeScript types for form data + transform props
  CountryMap.tsx    — React component; renders the SVG chart
  plugin/
    index.ts        — ChartPlugin class with metadata
    buildQuery.ts   — modern chart/data query builder
    controlPanel.tsx— form controls (worldview, admin level, country, ...)
    transformProps.ts — form_data → renderer props
scripts/            — build pipeline (NE shapefile → simplified GeoJSON outputs)
SIP_DRAFT.md        — design draft for the eventual SIP issue
