beastbytes/yii2-leaflet

Yii2 extension to integrate the Leaflet JavaScript mapping library

BeastBytes\Leaflet

Yii2 extension to integrate the Leaflet JavaScript mapping library., _(*1)

Features

• For Leaflet V1.*
• Easy to use predefined tile providers (port of Leaflet Providers)
• Simple popup creation for markers and vector components; just set the 'content' option
• Simple plugin interface

For license information see the LICENSE-file., _(*2)

Installation

The preferred way to install this extension is through composer., _(*3)

Either run, _(*4)

php composer.phar require --prefer-dist beastbytes/yii2-leaflet

or add, _(*5)

"beastbytes/yii2-leaflet": "*"

to the require section of your composer.json., _(*6)

Usage

To create a map, first create the components, e.g. markers, controls, shapes, etc., to display on the map, then run the Map widget, adding the the components in its configuration., _(*7)

The example below displays a map using OpenStreetMap as the tile provider. It has a marker in the centre of the map and a 5km raduis circle centred on the marker; these are in a layer group that is not initially displayed. When the layer is shown using the Layers control, the centre marker can be dragged and dropped and it's new position is shown - this demonstrates using component events. Three other markers are added in another layer group, and a layers and fullscreen control is added to the map; the fullscreen control is a plugin., _(*8)

Example

use BeastBytes\Leaflet\Map;

$centre = new LatLng([
    'lat' => 51.737022,
    'lng' => -4.931467
]);

$centreLayerGroup = new LayerGroup([ // Layer group with a marker and circle
    'layers' => [
        new Circle([
            'latLng' => $centre,
            'content' => 'This circle has a 5km raduis', // Setting 'content' creates a popup
            'options' => [
                'radius' => 5000
