VisualizaçõesHow to draw lines dynamically on SVG Picture?
I'm trying to develop an Attack Map when basically like all maps it will show the "Attacks" that are happening over the world but basically it will be randomly as I don't have access to any AV's APIs to get correct data. As of now I only have this SVG map shown on my HTML page:
And I'd want to draw some lines from one country to another to simulate the attacks. I have been searching about this and I have seen two "solutions". One is a JS code that draws a line in HTML:
if (stroke){
ctx.strokeStyle = stroke;
}
if (width){
ctx.lineWidth = width;
}
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.moveTo(...begin);
ctx.lineTo(...end);
ctx.stroke();
}
const canvas = document.querySelector("#line");
if(canvas.getContext){
const ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
drawLine(ctx, [100, 100], [300, 100], 'green', 5)
}
but as I said this draws a line outside of the SVG map and inside of HTML. I also saw a line tag which can be placed inside of SVG tags but it is static. I want to be dynamic and simulate the attacks. Is there any way I can do this? Thank you for your time!

Even if the SVG element is static, you can add <line /> elements dynamically when the DOM has loaded:
const lines = [
{
from: { x: 0, y: 20 },
to: { x: 30, y: 60 }
},
{
from: { x: 0, y: 20 },
to: { x: 30, y: 60 }
}
];
function addLine (x1, y1, x2, y2) {
const line = document.createElementNS('http://www.w3.org/2000/svg','line');
line.setAttribute("x1", x1);
line.setAttribute("y1", y1);
line.setAttribute("x2", x2);
line.setAttribute("y2", y2);
line.setAttribute("stroke", "white");
document.getElementById("mySvg").appendChild(line);
}
addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function () {
for (const line of lines) {
addLine(line.from.x, line.from.y, line.to.x, line.to.y);
}
});
