Leaflet.Marker.SlideTo

A plugin for LeafletJS to smoothly move (slide) markers to a new location.

Tested with Leaflet 1.0.0-rc3. Do not expect this to work in Leaflet 0.7.x.

See the demo.

API

This plugin adds two new methods to all L.Markers, L.Circles and L.CircleMarkers:

• .slideTo(latlng, slideOptions).
• .slideCancel()

The slideTo method will start moving the marker (or circle) towards latlng, taking some time to do so, using a linear animation.

Two options are available:

• duration is the number of milliseconds the slide animation will last.
• keepAtCenter is a boolean, whether the map center will follow the marker for the duration of the animation. If set to true, the map's dragging handler will be disabled momentarily.

var marker = L.marker([10,10]);

marker.slideTo(	[20, 20], {
	duration: 2000,
	keepAtCenter: true
});

The slideCancel method will stop the sliding animation (if applicable). Running setLatLng or dragging the marker will also stop the animation.

Installation through npm
