Summary

Mapbox GL JS is a JavaScript library that uses WebGL to render interactive maps from vector tiles and Mapbox styles..

mapbox-gl is the Polymer element that wraps around mapbox-gl-js to provide powerful mapping capabilities to your app as a webcomponent.

Example:

<mapbox-gl id="map"
  interactive
  map="{{map}}"
  map-style="mapbox://styles/mapbox/dark-v9"
  access-token="<MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN>"
  latitude=1.3521
  longitude=103.8698
  zoom=16
  pitch=45
  bearing=0></mapbox-gl>

Using a different version of mapbox-gl-js

You can use a different version of mapbox-gl-js by specifying the endpoint to the corresponding library and stylesheet through the script-src and css-src properties.

<mapbox-gl id="map"
  interactive
  map="{{map}}"
  script-src="https://api.mapbox.com/mapbox-gl-js/v0.44.0/mapbox-gl.js"
  css-src="https://api.tiles.mapbox.com/mapbox-gl-js/v0.44.0/mapbox-gl.css"></mapbox-gl>

Important Notes:

Resizing of mapbox-gl when it is not visible

The underlying mapbox library try to handle resize events automatically.

In under certain situations (e.g. when the page has display: none when using iron-pages to control the visible pages) the resize will fail and fall-back to a default size. However when the pages is made visible again, no resize event is emitted. And hence, mapbox-gl will retain the incorrect size instead of resizing to the correct dimension.

To overcome this limitation, you should manually trigger resize when the mapbox-gl element is made visible.

Example
HTML

<iron-pages
    selected="[[page]]"
    selected-item="{{pageElement}}"
    attr-for-selected="name"
    fallback-selection="view404"
    role="main">
  <my-view1 name="view1"></my-view1>
  <mapbox-gl name="view2"></mapbox-gl>
  <my-view404 name="view404"></my-view404>
</iron-pages>

JS

_pageElementChanged(ele) {
  if (!ele) return;
  // call resize if function exist
  ele.resize && ele.resize();
}

Examples

You should also look at the demos for more in-depth examples for different scenarios.

Add geojson layer

To add a geojson layer, you first need to create a geojson-source element to load the geojson. The data can be a JSON object or the url to a GeoJSON file.

Alternatively, you can bind the data directly to the mapbox-layer via source-data attribute with the format {type: String, data: String|Object}.

Then you can render the geojson via the mapbox-layer (e.g. rendering-type = line or fill).

Note that you will need to bind the corresponding map object from mapbox-gl element to both geojson-source element and mapbox-layer element.

Example

<mapbox-gl id="map"
  interactive
  map="{{map}}"
  map-style-url="mapbox://styles/mapbox/dark-v9"
  access-token="<MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN>"
  latitude=1.3521
  longitude=103.8698
  zoom=2></mapbox-gl>

<!-- reference source from geojson-source -->
<mapbox-layer
  map="[[map]]"
  layer-id="coastline_fill"
  rendering-type="fill"
  source="geojsonsrc"
  color="#009688"
  opacity=0.7></mapbox-layer>

<!-- input source directly into layer -->
<mapbox-layer
  map="[[map]]"
  layer-id="coastline_outline"
  rendering-type="line"
  source-data='{"type": "geojson", "data": "SOME_URL.geojson"}'
  color="#eee"
  line-width=2></mapbox-layer>

<geojson-source
  map="[[map]]"
  source-id="geojsonsrc"
  source-url="https://d2ad6b4ur7yvpq.cloudfront.net/naturalearth-3.3.0/ne_110m_land.geojson"></geojson-source>

Add building layer

To add a building layer, just bind the corresponding map object from mapbox-gl selement to the mapbox-building-layer element.

Example:

<mapbox-building-layer layer-id="buildings"
  map="[[map]]"
  fill-extrusion-opacity=0.6
  fill-extrusion-color="#666"></mapbox-building-layer>

Add marker

To add a marker layer, just include the mapbox-gl-marker element as a child of the mapbox-gl element.

Example:

<mapbox-gl id="map"
  interactive
  map="{{map}}"
  map-style="mapbox://styles/mapbox/dark-v9"
  access-token="<MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN>"
  latitude=1.3521
  longitude=103.8698
  zoom=16
  pitch=45
  bearing=0>

    <mapbox-gl-marker class="big_kitten"
      latitude=1.3521 longitude=103.8698
      offset-left=-32 offset-top=-32>
    </mapbox-gl-marker>

    <mapbox-gl-marker
      latitude=1.3541 longitude=103.8718
      offset-left=-64 offset-top=-30>
      <div class="textbox">Some text here</div>
      <div class="arrow-down"></div>
    </mapbox-gl-marker>

</mapbox-gl>

Add popup

mapbox-gl-popup can be used to create a pop-up. You can either attach the popup to a mapbox-gl-marker or trigger it manually with the opened property or show function.

mapbox-gl-popup can be styled by setting either text or html properties. Alternatively, you can also pass a slotted element (slot="popup-content") into the popup (as show below).

Example - Display popup on click HTML

<mapbox-gl
  interactive
  access-token="USE_UR_OWN_TOKEN"
  events-to-watch="click"
  on-mapbox-gl-click="handleClick">

  <mapbox-gl-popup close-button close-on-click
    opened="{{opened}}"
    latitude="[[lat]]" longitude="[[lng]]">
    <div slot="popup-content">
      <p><b>Hi</b></p>
      <p>You clicked on [[lat]], [[lng]]!</p>
    </div>
  </mapbox-gl-popup>
</mapbox-gl>

JS

handleClick = function(e, details) {
  var {lngLat: { lat, lng }} = details;
  this.lat = lat.toFixed(2);
  this.lng = lng.toFixed(2);
  this.opened = true;
}

Example - Attache popup to mapbox-gl-marker HTML

<mapbox-gl id="map" interactive
  access-token="USE_UR_OWN_TOKEN"
  latitude=1.3521 longitude=103.8698
  zoom=15 pitch=45 bearing=0>

  <mapbox-gl-marker
    id="marker"
    latitude=1.3521 longitude=103.8698
    width=64 height=64
    border-radius="50%"
    background-image="https://placekitten.com/g/64/64">
  </mapbox-gl-marker>

  <mapbox-gl-popup
    for="marker"
    bottom="[0,-32]"
    close-button close-on-click
    latitude=1.3521 longitude=103.8698
    html="Hello! This is a demo of a <b>popup</b>!">
  </mapbox-gl-popup>

</mapbox-gl>

Add a Geocoder control

To add a search input to mapbox-gl, you can use the mapbox-gl-geocoder element which uses the Mapbox Geocoding API to search for places. You just need to ensure the mapbox-gl-geocoder is a child of mapbox-gl.

Example

<mapbox-gl interactive access-token="[accessToken]">

  <mapbox-gl-geocoder
    fly-to
    limit=5
    placeholder="Type to search"></mapbox-gl-geocoder>

</mapbox-gl>

Handling events

To handle click event on a specific map-layer, you can listen for the mapbox-layer-click event. The event will return the feature of the geometry that is clicked upon.

<mapbox-layer
  map="[[map]]"
  layer-id="coastline_fill"
  rendering-type="fill"
  source-data="[[geojsonsrc]]"
  color="#009688"
  opacity=0.7
  events-to-watch="click"
  on-mapbox-layer-click="handleClick"></mapbox-layer>
function handleClick(e, {features}) {
  if (features.length > 0) {
    alert(features[0].properties.COSTAL_NAM);
  }
}

Data-driven styling

To create a data-driven style for a attribute, just pass in a JSON object instead of a constant variable.

more details @ https://www.mapbox.com/mapbox-gl-js/style-spec/#types-function

Example

  <mapbox-gl id="map"
    interactive
    map="{{map}}"
    map-style="mapbox://styles/mapbox/dark-v9"
    access-token="<MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN>"
    latitude=40.66995747013945
    longitude=-103.59179687498357
    zoom=3></mapbox-gl>

  <mapbox-layer
    map="[[map]]"
    layer-id="country"
    rendering-type="fill"
    source="geojsonsrc"
    color="[[color]]"
    filter="[[filter]]"></mapbox-layer>

  <geojson-source
    map="[[map]]"
    source-id="geojsonsrc"
    source-url="https://d2ad6b4ur7yvpq.cloudfront.net/naturalearth-3.3.0/ne_110m_admin_0_countries.geojson"></geojson-source>

color

{
  property: 'continent',
  type: 'categorical',
  stops: [
    ['Africa', '#FAA'],
    ['Asia', '#AAF']
  ]
}

filter

['in', 'continent', 'Africa', 'Asia']

Create a heatmap

To create a heatmap, create a geojson-source with cluster to loaded a clustered data. Then create a mapbox-heatmap-layer with the corresponding source.

Example

  <mapbox-gl id="map"
    interactive
    map="{{map}}"
    map-style="mapbox://styles/mapbox/dark-v9"
    access-token="<MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN>"
    latitude=40.66995747013945
    longitude=-103.59179687498357
    zoom=3></mapbox-gl>

  <mapbox-heatmap-layer
    map="[[map]]"
    layer-id="heatmap"
    source="geojsonsrc"
    radius=80
    color="rgba(0, 200, 0, 0.3)"
    opacity=0.2
    levels="[[levels]]"></mapbox-heatmap-layer>

  <geojson-source
    cluster
    cluster-max-zoom=15
    cluster-radius=20
    map="[[map]]"
    source-id="geojsonsrc"
    source-url="https://d2ad6b4ur7yvpq.cloudfront.net/naturalearth-3.3.0/ne_10m_parks_and_protected_lands_point.geojson"></geojson-source>
levels = [{"count": 0, "color": "#EEEEEE", "radius": 2, "opacity": 0.5},
          {"count": 5, "color": "#2196F3"},
          {"count": 8, "color": "#FFC107"},
          {"count": 10, "color": "#F44336"}];

Add Controls

mapbox-gl-control is a generic element for mapbox controls which you can add to the map.

<mapbox-gl
  interactive
  access-token="USE_UR_OWN_TOKEN">

  <mapbox-gl-control
    icontrol-name="NavigationControl"
    icontrol-options='{"compass": true}'
    position="top-right">
  </mapbox-gl-control>

</mapbox-gl>

You can also pass in an instance of any mapbox controls (i.e. the IControl interface) to the icontrol attribute instead.

<mapbox-gl
  interactive
  access-token="USE_UR_OWN_TOKEN">

  <mapbox-gl-control
    icontrol="[[someCustomIControlInstance]]"
    position="top-right">
  </mapbox-gl-control>

</mapbox-gl>

You can also create your own custom IControl by declaring it as a child of mapbox-gl-control. Note that you cannot style it with external stylesheets.

<mapbox-gl interactive access-token="USE_UR_OWN_TOKEN">

  <mapbox-gl-control interactive position="top-right">

    <style>
      #icontrol {
        color: #fff;
        text-align: center;
        background-color: rgba(10,10,10,0.5);
      }
    </style>
    <div id="icontrol">
      <div>I am a custom Control.</div>
      <button>Click me!</button>
    </div>

  </mapbox-gl-control>
</mapbox-gl>

Styling

The following custom properties and mixins are available for styling:

Custom property Description Default
--mapbox-map mixin applied to the map div element {}
--mapbox-canvas mixin applied to the canvas element for the map {}
--mapbox-gl-marker mixin applied to the marker element {}
