How to use MapboxGL in Vue more elegantly

#vue #gis #javascript #typescript

Vue provides a declarative and component-based programming model that helps you efficiently develop user interfaces, be it simple or complex.

To more elegantly in using mapbox-gl, there is a package named MapVue.

MapVue is a comprehensive MapboxGL component library. You can easily and happily apply MapVue to your Vue projects. Import various data sources and layers in the form of components, and update props of layers and sources in map by MVVM.

How it works?

MapVue essentially wraps some classes in MapboxGL and implements componentization through some variable properties of the watch class.

For example, the v-fill-layer component actually wraps the FillLayer class.

There are 25 components im MapVue, almost contains all of the mapbox-gl APIS.

The core component is VMap component. It is the top-level component, all other components must be wrapped in VMap, it instantiates a mapboxgl.Map and provides the map instance to child components.

    const state = reactive({
      "heatmap-color": [
        "interpolate",
        ["linear"],
        ["heatmap-density"],
        0,
        "rgba(33,102,172,0)",
        0.2,

        1,
        "rgb(178,24,43)",
      ],
      "heatmap-opacity": ["interpolate", ["linear"], ["zoom"], 7, 1, 9, 0],
      "heatmap-radius": ["interpolate", ["linear"], ["zoom"], 0, 2, 9, 20],
      "heatmap-intensity": ["interpolate", ["linear"], ["zoom"], 0, 1, 9, 3],
      radius: 20,
      intensity: 3,
      layout: {
        visibility: "visible",
      },
    });

    return {
      state,
      accessToken,
    };
  },
});
</script>

<template>
  <div class="container">
    <v-map
