Esri Leaflet
Leaflet plugins for working with a handful of the most popular ArcGIS Service types. This includes Esri basemaps and feature services, as well as tiled map, dynamic map and image services.
Esri Leaflet is maintained with :heart: by folks spanning multiple teams within Esri, but we provide no guarantee of individual features, nor a traditional product lifecycle to support planning.
The goal of this project is not to replace the ArcGIS API for JavaScript but rather to provide small components for only some aspects of the ArcGIS platform for developers who prefer to build mapping applications with Leaflet.
We are proud to facilitate a project which requires participation from our diverse user community in order to thrive and we welcome contributions from those just getting their feet wet in open-source.
Support for Geocoding services and Geoprocessing services, as well as service defined rendering are available as well (via additional plugins).
Demos
We've written loads of demos showing many of the features of Esri Leaflet.

Development Instructions
- Fork and clone Esri Leaflet
cd
into the esri-leaflet
folder- Install the dependencies with
npm install
- Run
npm start
from the command line. This will compile minified source in a brand new dist
directory, launch a tiny webserver and begin watching the raw source for changes. - Run
npm test
to make sure you haven't introduced a new 'feature' accidently. - Make your changes and create a pull request
- If you're interested in playing around with our website locally, just make sure you have GruntCLI installed and run
grunt
. This will start the web server locally at http://localhost:8001 and start watching the website source files for changes.

The master
branch of this repository is only compatible with Leaflet 1.0.x.
