Leaflet-IIIF

A Leaflet plugin for viewing IIIF images. See the demo

Requires Leaflet.js.

Leaflet-IIIF relies on browser support for Promise and Fetch API. If you need to support IE or other browsers without this, please use a polyfill.

Note on Leaflet Compatibility

Examples

Install with NPM

$ npm install leaflet-iiif --save

Quick and easy to get going.

import 'leaflet-iiif';

var map = L.map('map', {
  center: [0, 0],
  crs: L.CRS.Simple,
  zoom: 0
});

L.tileLayer.iiif('http://example.com/iiifimage.jp2/info.json').addTo(map);

Thanks to klokantech/iiifviewer and turban/Leaflet.Zoomify who have similar plugins which were used in development of Leaflet-IIIF.
