vue2mapbox-gl

Vue components for mapbox-gl. Api similar to Vue2Leaflet.

Install

$ npm install --save vue2mapbox-gl

Usage

Import using umd, for example using an es6 import.

import Vue2MapboxGL from 'vue2mapbox-gl';

// You might want to import the relevant css, for example:
import 'mapbox-gl/dist/mapbox-gl.css';
// for the v-mapbox-geocoder
import '@mapbox/mapbox-gl-geocoder/dist/mapbox-gl-geocoder.css';

// Use the plugin
Vue.use(Vue2MapboxGL);

API

Here are some simple examples. You can find more examples if you run the storybook using npm run storybook.

<v-mapbox
  access-token="pk...."
  map-style="mapbox://styles/mapbox/satellite-streets-v10"
  :center="[52, 3]"
  :zoom="10"
  :pitch="60"
  :bearing="-132"
  :min-zoom="5"
  id="map"
  ref="map"
>
</v-mapbox>

Using the example above you can use the map reference available from $refs.map.map to access the mapbox map object. For example in the mounted method:

mounted() {
  let map = this.$refs.map.map
  map.on('load', () => {
  map.addLayer(style)
})

You can also add the other components, for example the controls.

<v-mapbox
  access-token="pk...."
  map-style="mapbox://styles/mapbox/satellite-streets-v10"
>
 <v-mapbox-navigation-control></v-mapbox-navigation-control>
</v-mapbox>

Or you can add a custom component as a layer

<v-mapbox
  access-token="pk...."
  map-style="mapbox://styles/mapbox/satellite-streets-v10"
>
 <custom-layer></custom-layer>
</v-mapbox>

In this approach you can implement a component with a method deferredMountedTo. This idea was taken from Vue2Leaflet. Another approach is to use the inject functionality of vue. This is a minimal example.

export default {
  name: 'custom-layer',
  render() {
    // you
    return this.$slots.default
  },
  methods: {
    deferredMountedTo(map) {
      console.log('CustomLayer got a map')
    }
  }
}

You can also use an inject: ['getMap'], to access the map in your component.

Styling

Mapbox adds a mapboxgl-map class to the main element. You can style that element so the element fits it's parent container.

.mapboxgl-map {
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
}
