Has anyone been able to render a world map visualization in Pygal?

Question

I've been trying to create a world map using pygal for python. I'm using python 3.9 and pycharms on a mac. I've tried using the code in the link below. Here's part of the code that I copied and tried to execute. When I run it, no errors occur but no file is rendered. The "maps" in "pygal.maps.world.World()" is highlighted and says "Cannot find reference maps in init.py".

worldmap_chart = pygal.maps.world.World()
worldmap_chart.title = 'Minimum deaths by capital punishement (source: Amnesty International)'
worldmap_chart.add('In 2012', {
  'af': 14,
  'bd': 1,
  'by': 3,
  'cn': 1000,
  'gm': 9,
  'in': 1,
  'ir': 314,
  'iq': 129,
  'jp': 7,
  'kp': 6,
  'pk': 1,
  'ps': 6,
  'sa': 79,
  'so': 6,
  'sd': 5,
  'tw': 6,
  'ae': 1,
  'us': 43,
  'ye': 28
})
worldmap_chart.render()

Answer 1

Where do you want to show the map?

You could use render_in_browser if you have lxml installed.

To do that, replace the last line of your code with this.

worldmap_chart.render_in_browser()

Here's a list of the other output options http://www.pygal.org/en/stable/documentation/output.html.

This is how the map generated by the posted code appears in my browser (Chrome).
