Leaflet.Icon.Glyph
Allows you to put glyphs from icon fonts into your LeafletJS markers.
This is very similar to other LeafletJS plugins such as AwesomeMarkers or
MakiMarkers. The main difference is that Leaflet.Icon.Glyph does not need any
CSS to be set up, and should work with any bootstrap-style icon fonts.
This means hundreds of glyphs at your disposal.
Demo
Live demo at https://leaflet.github.io/Leaflet.Icon.Glyph/demo.html
The demo shows:
Usage
Load the script (alongside whatever icon fonts you need):
<script type="text/javascript" src="Leaflet.Icon.Glyph.js"></script>
Then, if your icon glyphs look like this in HTML:
<i class="mdi mdi-package"></i>
Instantiate the marker icons like this in your Javascript+Leaflet code:
var marker = L.marker(latlng, {
icon: L.icon.glyph({
prefix: 'mdi',
glyph: 'package'
})
});
If you want to show a glyph from a "normal" font (e.g. an "A"), just set an empty prefix:
var marker = L.marker(latlng, {
icon: L.icon.glyph({
prefix: '',
glyph: 'A'
})
});
The demo page shows how to use a few different icon typefaces and plain glyphs, check it out for inspiration!
Options
An instance of L.Icon.Glyph
supports the options of L.Icon
, plus:
var icon = L.icon.glyph({
className: '',
prefix: '',
glyph: '',
glyphColor: 'white',
glyphSize: '11px',
glyphAnchor: [0, 7],
bgPos: [0, 0]
bgSize: [800, 100]
});
Subclassing
If you're using a set of font icons extensively, or a custom icon image, it might
be easier to subclass L.Icon.Glyph
into your own icon class:
L.Icon.Glyph.MDI = L.Icon.Glyph.extend({
options: {
prefix: 'mdi',
iconUrl: '/path/to/your/icon/image.png',
iconSize: [30, 50]
}
});
L.icon.glyph.mdi = function(options) { return new L.Icon.Glyph.MDI(options); };
var marker = L.marker(latlng, {
icon: L.icon.glyph.mdi({ glyph: 'package' })
});
