feature-filter-geojson-vt

This library is forked from mapbox/feature-filter, but adapted to work with vector tiles generated by geojson-vt, which uses tags instead of properties, pending https://github.com/mapbox/geojson-vt/issues/80. This library implements the semantics specified by the Mapbox GL JS spec.

API

featureFilter(filter)

Given a filter expressed as nested arrays, return a new function that evaluates whether a given feature (with a .tags property) passes its test.

Parameters

| parameter | type | description | | --------- | ----- | ---------------- | | filter | Array | mapbox gl filter |

Returns Function, filter-evaluating function

Usage

var ff = require('feature-filter');

// will match a feature with class of street_limited,
// AND an admin_level less than or equal to 3,
// that's NOT a polygon.
var filter = [
    "all",
    ["==", "class", "street_limited"],
    ["<=", "admin_level", 3],
    ["!=", "$type", "Polygon"]
]

// will match a feature that has a class of
// wetland OR wetland_noveg.
// ["in", "class", "wetland", "wetland_noveg"]

// testFilter will be a function that returns a boolean
var testFilter = ff(filter);

// Layer feature that you're testing. Must have type
// and tags keys.
var feature = {
    type: 2,
    tags: {
       class: "street_limited"
       admin_level: 1
    }
};

// will return a boolean based on whether the feature matched the filter
return testFilter(feature);
