Leaflet Map WordPress Plugin

Add a map generated with LeafletJS: an open-source JavaScript library for mobile-friendly interactive maps. Map tiles are provided by default through OpenStreetMap, or MapQuest (with an app key). Can be set per map with shortcode attributes or through the dashboard settings.

Installation

(simple) Install via the WordPress plugins page on your WordPress site: /wp-admin/plugin-install.php (search Leaflet)
(needlessly complicated) Copy this repo (or download a release of it) into your WordPress plugins directory: /wp-content/plugins/. You might also need to name the directory 'leaflet-map', like so: git clone https://github.com/bozdoz/wp-plugin-leaflet-map.git leaflet-map

General Usage

[leaflet-map address="Manhattan, New York"]
[leaflet-marker]

The above shortcode will produce a map centered at Manhattan, New York (thanks to geocoding), and also drop a marker in the center.

It's also useful to add popups to the markers:

[leaflet-map address="Las Vegas"]
[leaflet-marker]Hey! This is where I got married![/leaflet-marker]

You can have SVG markers, add shapes, geojson, kml, images, and more! See available shortcodes below.

Developing

This plugin uses Docker for development. Simply:

install Docker
fork/clone the repo, and
execute this command from the repo's root directory in your terminal:

docker-compose up

You should also have node and NPM installed if you want to edit JavaScript files, and need to minify them:

npm install
npm run minify

You can also use these NPM scripts to interact with Docker, if you make changes to Docker-related files:

To start:

npm start

To completely remove:

npm run destroy

That's all for now! Thanks!

Available Shortcodes

[leaflet-map]

Height, width, latitude, longitude and zoom are the basic attributes:

[leaflet-map height=250 width=250 lat=44.67 lng=-63.61 zoom=5]

However, you can also just give it an address, and the chosen geocoder (default: Nominatum) will look it up for you:

[leaflet-map address="Oslo, Norway"]

[leaflet-map] Options:

Option	Default
`lat` and `lng` or `address`	lat: 44.67, lng: -63.61
`zoom`	12
`height`	250
`width`	100%
`fitbounds`	0 (false)
`zoomcontrol`	0 (false)
`scrollwheel`	0 (false)
`doubleclickzoom`	0 (false)
`min_zoom`	0
`max_zoom`	20
`subdomains`	abc
`attribution`	©Leaflet ©OpenStreetMap
`closepopuponclick`	false
`trackresize`	false
`boxZoom`	true
`dragging`	true
`keyboard`	true
`maxbounds`	null

[leaflet-image]

Much the same as leaflet-map above, but uses src for the source image.

TBH, it's a huge mess, and probably shouldn't be used. It might make a good image viewer with optional marker highlight points. It requires far too much manual work at the moment. Recommended usage:

[leaflet-image src="path/to/img.jpg" zoom=1]
[leaflet-marker draggable]

Then in the console, check the coordinates when you move the marker (should only work at that zoom level).

[leaflet-image] Options:

Option	Default
`src`	https://picsum.photos/1000/1000/
`zoom`	12
`height`	250
`width`	100%
`fitbounds`	0 (false)
`zoomcontrol`	0 (false)
`scrollwheel`	0 (false)
`doubleclickzoom`	0 (false)
`min_zoom`	0
`max_zoom`	20
`attribution`	©Leaflet ©OpenStreetMap

[leaflet-marker]

Add a marker to any map by adding [leaflet-marker] after any [leaflet-map] shortcode. You can adjust the lat/lng in the same way, as well as some other basic functionality (popup message, draggable, visible on load). Also, if you want to add a link to a marker popup, use [leaflet-marker]Message here: click here[/leaflet-marker] and add a link like you normally would with the WordPress editor.

[leaflet-marker] Options:

Option	Usage
`lat` and `lng` or `address`	Location on the map; defaults to map center; `lat`/`lng` are floats, `address` is a string
`draggable`	Make a marker draggable (`boolean`); default `false`
`title`	Add a hover-over message to your marker (different than popup)
`alt`	Add an alt text to the marker image
`zindexoffset`	Define the z-index for the marker image
`opacity`	Define the css opacity for the marker image
`iconurl`	Give a url for the marker image file
`iconsize`	Set the size of the icon: e.g. "80,50" for 80px width 50px height
`iconanchor`	Set the anchor position of the icon: e.g. "40,60" for 40px left 60px top
`shadowurl`	Give a url for the marker shadow image file
`shadowsize`	Set the size of the shadow: e.g. "80,50" for 80px width 50px height
`shadowanchor`	Set the anchor position of the shadow: e.g. "40,60" for 40px left 60px top
`popupanchor`	Set the anchor position of the popup: e.g. "40,60" for 40px left 60px top
`svg`	Boolean for whether the marker should be created as an svg: default `false`
`background`	Background color for an SVG marker (above)
`color`	color of the SVG marker (above)
`iconclass`	className for the marker image

[leaflet-line]

Add a line to the map by adding [leaflet-line]. You can specify the postions with a list separated by semi-colon ; or bar | using lat/lng: [leaflet-line latlngs="41, 29; 44, 18"] or addresses: [leaflet-line addresses="Istanbul; Sarajevo"], or x/y coordinates for image maps.

Add a popup to the line by adding text to the content of the shortcode:

[leaflet-line addresses="new york; chicago"]New York to Chicago[/leaflet-line]

[leaflet-line] Options

Option	Usage
`addresses`, `latlngs`, or `coordinates`	For geocoded addresses, latitude/longitude, or x/y coordinates for Image Maps; ex: `[leaflet-line latlngs="41, 29; 44, 18"]` or addresses: `[leaflet-line addresses="Istanbul; Sarajevo"]`
`fitbounds`	Fit the map to the bounds of the line (instead of whatever center you gave the map originally)

And the following Shape Options. See https://leafletjs.com/reference-1.3.4.html#path for details. 'stroke', 'color', 'weight', 'opacity', 'lineCap', 'lineJoin', 'dashArray', 'dashOffset' 'fill', 'fillColor', 'fillOpacity', 'fillRule', 'className'

[leaflet-polygon]

Virtually the same as [leaflet-line] (above)

[leaflet-circle]

Add a circle to the map by adding [leaflet-circle]. You can specify the position using lat and lng and the radius in meters using radius. You can also customize the style using Leaflet's Path options. Example: [leaflet-circle message="max distance" lng=5.1179 lat=52.0979 radius=17500 color="#0DC143" fillOpacity=0.1].

[leaflet-circle] Options

Options	Usage
`address`, `lat/lng`, or `x/y`	For geocoded addresses, latitude/longitude, or x/y coordinates for Image Maps (see [leaflet-image]); ex: `[leaflet-circle lat=52 lng=5]` or addresses: `[leaflet-circle address="Amsterdam"]`
`fitbounds`	Fit the map to the bounds of the circle (instead of whatever center you gave the map originally)
radius	Radius of the circle in meters

Includes all style options: See https://leafletjs.com/reference-1.3.4.html#path

[leaflet-geojson]

Or you can add a geojson shape via a url:

[leaflet-geojson src="https://gist.githubusercontent.com/bozdoz/064a7101b95a324e8852fe9381ab9a18/raw/03f4f54b13a3a7e256732760a8b679818d9d36fc/map.geojson"]

[leaflet-geojson] Options

Option	Usage
`src`	Source of the geojson file
`popup_text`	Text for any popups when shapes are clicked
`popup_property`	Name of the geojson property that contains popup content
`fitbounds`	Fit the map to the bounds of all shapes (instead of whatever center you gave the map originally)
`circleMarker`	Display circles instead of markers. Vastly improves performance on maps with a lot of points.
`radius`	Radius of the circles, when `circleMarkers` is set

Includes all style options: See https://leafletjs.com/reference-1.3.4.html#path. Also, if you want to add feature properties to the popups, use the inner content and curly brackets to substitute the values: [leaflet-geojson]Field A = {field_a}[/leaflet-geojson].

[leaflet-kml]

Same idea as geojson (above), but takes KML files and loads Mapbox's togeojson library

[leaflet-gpx]

Same idea as geojson and KML (above), but takes GPX files and also loads Mapbox's togeojson library

Frequently Asked Questions

How Can I Add another Leaflet Plugin?

There are some steps you can take, currently, to add another Leaflet Plugin to enhance this WordPress plugin. In general, you can add an action to trigger when Leaflet is loaded, and add custom JavaScript and any dependencies your plugin needs:

Here's an example with MapBox Fullscreen plugin:

functions.php

add_action('leaflet_map_loaded', 'fs_leaflet_loaded');
function fs_leaflet_loaded() {
  wp_enqueue_script('full_screen_leaflet', 'https://api.mapbox.com/mapbox.js/plugins/leaflet-fullscreen/v1.0.1/Leaflet.fullscreen.min.js', Array('wp_leaflet_map'), '1.0', true);
  wp_enqueue_style('full_screen_leaflet_styles', 'https://api.mapbox.com/mapbox.js/plugins/leaflet-fullscreen/v1.0.1/leaflet.fullscreen.css');

  // custom js
  wp_enqueue_script('full_screen_custom', get_theme_file_uri( '/js/full-screen.js' ), Array('full_screen_leaflet'), '1.0', true);
}

/js/full-screen.js

;(function() {
  function main() {
    if (!window.WPLeafletMapPlugin) {
      console.log('no plugin found!')
      return
    }

    // iterate any of these: `maps`, `markers`, `markergroups`, `lines`, `circles`, `geojsons`
    var maps = window.WPLeafletMapPlugin.maps

    for (var i = 0, len = maps.length; i < len; i++) {
      var map = maps[i]
      map.whenReady(function() {
        this.addControl(new L.Control.Fullscreen())
      })
    }
  }

  window.addEventListener('load', main)
})()
