Sitar Lite

Display of Vega visualizations from Gists, inspired by Mike Bostock's bl.ocks.org.

Visit the live application on Heroku.

Usage

Simply create a Vega specification in a Gist, and name the file vega.json. See this basic bar chart Gist and its corresponding Sitar view. You can also use relative URLs in your Gist to point to data, see this Dimpvis plot Gist and its Sitar view. These two examples come from the Vega examples built by the core Vega team at Trifacta and the UW Interactive Data Lab.

Gist URLs are constructed as http://sitar.herokuapp.com/#username/gist-id.

User-level URLs are constructed as http://sitar.herokuapp.com/#username.

About

This site utilizes a single-file Tangelo server to pull the Gist content using the GitHub API based on the URL.
