Use Leaflet in your django projects
Project description
django-leaflet allows you to use Leaflet in your Django projects.
INSTALL
pip install django-leaflet
USAGE
Add leaflet to your INSTALLED_APPS
Add the HTML header :
{% load leaflet_tags %}
<head>
...
{% leaflet_js %}
{% leaflet_css %}
</head>
Add the map in your page, providing a name :
...
<body>
...
{% leaflet_map "yourmap" %}
...
</body>
Use the Leaflet API as usual in the map initialization callback (can be facultative depending on settings) :
<script type="text/javascript">
function yourmapInit(yourmap, bounds) {
...
// Add background layer from MapBox
yourmap.addLayer(new L.TileLayer('http://{s}.tiles.mapbox.com/v3/mapbox.mapbox-light/{z}/{x}/{y}.png'));
...
}
</script>
Give your maps a size (height is mandatory) :
<style>
.leaflet-container { /* all maps */
width: 600px;
height: 400px;
}
#specialbigmap {
height: 800px;
}
</style>
Configuration
In order to configure django-leaflet, just add a new section in your settings :
LEAFLET_CONFIG = {
# conf here
}
Spatial extent
You can configure a global spatial extent for your maps, that will automatically center your maps, restrict panning and add reset view and scale controls. (See advanced usage to tweak that.)
‘SPATIAL_EXTENT’ : (5.0, 44.0, 7.5, 46)
Default tiles layer
To globally add a tiles layer to your maps :
‘TILES_URL’ : ‘http://{s}.tile.openstreetmap.org/{z}/{x}/{y}.png’
This setting can also be a list of tuples (name, url) ! A layer switcher will then be added automatically.
Leaflet version
By default, it runs the last stable version (0.4.4) of Leaflet. But it is possible to run the legacy version (0.3.1) or the unstable under development (master).
‘LEAFLET_VERSION’ : ‘legacy’
Scale control
Automatically add a scale control with km and miles :
‘SCALE’ : False
Advanced usage
{% leaflet_map %} tag parameters
callback
A Javascript function name for initialization callback. (Default:name + Init)
{% leaflet_map "yourmap" callback="window.customMap" %}
fixextent
Control if map initial view shoud be set to extent setting. (Default: True). Setting fixextent to False will prevent view reset and scale controls to be added.
Projection
It is possible to setup the map spatial reference in LEAFLET_CONFIG :
‘SRID’ : 2154 # See http://spatialreference.org
Additional parameters are then required to compute scale levels :
‘MAX_RESOLUTION’ : 1142.7383, ‘TILES_EXTENT’ : [700000,6325197,1060000,6617738],
For more information, have a look at this example.
