Deckgl ver9
Yes it's in progress. https://github.com/geoarrow/deck.gl-layers/pull/112
I'd be keen to help with this if I can.
I've got a build based on your PR with everything on the latest 9.0.12 of deck.gl, and the examples for which data is available (point, poly and multi-poly) all seem to work fine. Happy to go off and test the other examples with applicable data that I can find/generate.
Is this just a matter of bump and test the examples or is there a little more to it?
Indeed, it really is just a matter of bumping the versions and testing the examples. I haven't looked at the full change list for deck.gl v9 and if there's any change to the binary interface that I should watch out for. But from my exploration in https://github.com/geoarrow/deck.gl-layers/pull/112 I didn't seem to hit any blockers.
A PR would be great!
One other thing to note, I've had some initial discussion with the deck.gl team about starting the process of upstreaming this into deck.gl. They suggested first moving work to the visgl/deck.gl-community repo to incubate the project and later possibly upstream it into deck.gl proper. See https://github.com/visgl/deck.gl-community/pull/67
I haven't had the time yet to look at the fork made there. I've been more focused on the Python side in Lonboard. The build system in deck.gl-community is quite different I think. It's probably ok to make PRs here with the expectation of later making PRs to update "upstream" from here. But open to thoughts/feedback
Cool! It seems like they've already bumped everything upstream so I guess that's covered.
I expect there isn't a need to bring additions they've made back into this repo, but let me know what you think.
I don't know whether it's worth synchronizing the repos.
I think primarily it'll just be annoying to follow the deck.gl-community release schedule, because so far I've published a new version here whenever I wanted to use something in lonboard. But maybe we can publish new upstream alpha versions as well regularly.
In that case I'll submit a PR to this repo for the build I linked above with deck.gl bumped.
