Readme
Note: this tool is experimental and is not actively supported by Mapbox. For support, please open an issue in this repository.
This is a binding from Mapbox GL JS to the familiar Leaflet API.
// replace with your Mapbox API Access token. Only include a token if you will be using Mapbox tiles.
var token ="pk.XXXX";
var map = L.map('map').setView([38.912753, -77.032194], 15);
L.marker([38.912753, -77.032194])
.bindPopup("Hello <b>Leaflet GL</b>!<br>Whoa, it works!")
.addTo(map)
.openPopup();
var gl = L.mapboxGL({
accessToken: token,
style: 'mapbox://styles/mapbox/bright-v8'
}).addTo(map);
Note that you can use any vector tile source useable by mapbox-gl. For instance, you can use OSM2VectorTiles with:
var gl = L.mapboxGL({
style: 'https://api.maptiler.com/maps/topo/style.json?key=<YOUR_MAPTILER_API_KEY>'
}).addTo(map);
Once you have created the leaflet layer, the mapbox-gl map object can be accessed using
gl.getMapboxMap()....
// add a source to the mapbox-gl layer
gl.getMapboxMap().addSource({...})
Create a mapbox account, then head to https://www.mapbox.com/studio/ and copy your access token that was automatically created for you. The access token should start with "pk.".

Add a script tag referencing mapbox-gl-leaflet after adding leaflet and mapbox-gl-js in your website:
<!-- Leaflet -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="leaflet.css" />
<script src="leaflet.js"></script>
<!-- Mapbox GL -->
<link href='https://api.tiles.mapbox.com/mapbox-gl-js/v1.5.0/mapbox-gl.css' rel='stylesheet' />
<script src='https://api.tiles.mapbox.com/mapbox-gl-js/v1.5.0/mapbox-gl.js'></script>
<script src="leaflet-mapbox-gl.js"></script>
You can also use Unpkg as a CDN using:
<script src="https://unpkg.com/mapbox-gl-leaflet/leaflet-mapbox-gl.js"></script>
This project makes it possible to easily add a mapbox-gl-js layer in your Leaflet map. When using mapbox-gl-leaflet, you won't be able to use some of the mapbox-gl-js features. Here are the main differences between a "pure" mapbox-gl-js map and a Leaflet map using mapbox-gl-leaflet:
On the bright side, the mapbox-gl-leaflet binding will allow you to use all the leaflet features and plugins.
If you only need the mapbox-gl-js features (adding a map with a mapbox-style, adding a GeoJSON, etc.), you are probably better off using it directly.
Please use the issue tracker to report any bugs or file feature requests. You can fork this jsfiddle template to reproduce a bug, then share the URL of your fork in the GitHub issue.
