[Question] Integrating tangram-es c++

[faizol]

Hi,
I just downloaded boden framework to play around with it. My question is, roughly, if I would like to integrate with a mapping library like tangram-es (https://github.com/tangrams/tangram-es) or mapbox, what is the best way to do it using boden?

TIA.

Hi,

Boden provides a mechanism called "extra modules" for integrating third-party libraries like the one you quoted.

For an example, see our Lottie integration: https://www.boden.io/reference/extra-modules/lottie/lottie_view/

We have a couple of guides that also discuss the subject:

• https://www.boden.io/guides/extending/writing_view_modules/
• https://www.boden.io/guides/extending/writing_view/
• https://www.boden.io/guides/extending/wrap_java_class/

You can see how LottieView is implemented here: https://github.com/AshampooSystems/boden/tree/master/framework/ui/modules/lottieview

Hope this helps you get started!

If you have specific questions, please let us know.
