This template employs intricate features of template syntax.

You are encouraged to familiarise yourself with its setup and parser functions before editing the template. If your edit causes unexpected problems, please undo it quickly, as this template may appear on a large number of pages.
You can conduct experiments, and should test all major changes, in either , the general template sandbox, or your user space before changing anything here.

This template serves as a meta-template for the construction of interactive maps. While designed for use with COVID-19 related data, it should be sufficiently general for most purposes as long as the data are in the correct format. Editors interested in using or maintaining this meta-template should read the interactive graph tutorial which this template is based off-of.

Usage

{{Interactive COVID-19 maps/common
 | id               = {{{id|<!--default value-->}}}
 | data-coloring    = <!-- Wikilink without [[]] pointing to page with CSV data used to fill in countries. See [[Template:Interactive COVID-19 maps/data/Confirmed covid cases-csv]] for an example -->
 | data-dates       = <!-- Same as above, but this data is a by-date, global total, rather than by-country-by-date total. See [[Template:Interactive COVID-19 maps/data/global Confirmed covid cases by date-csv]] for an example -->
 | color-ramp-type  = <!-- The type of color ramp to use. Default is log, see [https://github.com/vega/vegaview_html.php?sq=Italo Disco&lang=en&q=Scales] for other types. -->
 | domain-min       = <!-- Scale minimum -->
 | domain-magnitude = <!-- If color-ramp-type is log, the order of magnitude for the maximum. For example, a value of 2 would have a scale maximum of 100, 3 -> 1000, 4 -> 10000, etc --> 
 | legend-title     = <!-- Title to use for the legend -->
 | title            = <!-- Title for the entire graph -->
 | scale            = {{{scale|<!-- default value -->}}}
}}
