Image

Install

npm install react-openlayers --save-dev

Example

import { OSM } from 'ol/source';
import { Map, View, TileLayer } from 'react-openlayers';
import 'react-openlayers/dist/index.css'; // for css

export default function(props) {
  return ( 
    <Map controls={[]} interactions={[]}>
      <TileLayer source={new OSM()} />
      <View center={[-10997148, 4569099]} zoom={4}/>
    </Map>
  );
}

ol/Feature <Marker /> ol/Feature customized as a map maker.

Layers

OpenLayers Object React Component Description
ol/layer/Graticule <GraticuleLayer /> Displays a graticule (grid of latitude and longitude lines) on the map.
ol/layer/Heatmap <HeatmapLayer /> Displays a heatmap based on vector data.
ol/layer/Tile <TileLayer /> Displays tiled images, such as those from a tile server.
ol/layer/Vector <VectorLayer /> Displays vector data, such as points, lines, and polygons.
ol/layer/WebGLTile <WebGLLayer /> Displays tiled images using WebGL for rendering.

OpenLayers Object React Component Description
ol/control/Attribution <AttributionControl /> Displays attribution information for the map layers
ol/control/FullScreen <FullScreenControl /> Adds a button to toggle full-screen mode
ol/control/MousePosition <MousePositionControl /> Displays the current mouse position in coordinates
ol/control/OverviewMap <OverviewMapControl /> Displays an overview map of the main map
ol/control/ScaleLine <ScaleLineControl /> Displays an overview map of the main map

Interactions

OpenLayers Object React Component Description
ol/interaction/DragRotateAndZoom <DragRotateAndZoomInteraction /> Allows rotating and zooming the map by dragging.
ol/interaction/Draw <DrawInteraction /> Allows drawing geometries on the map.
ol/interaction/Link <LinkInteraction /> Synchronizes the map view with the URL.
ol/interaction/Modify <ModifyInteraction /> Allows modifying existing geometries.
ol/interaction/Pointer <PointerInteraction /> Base class for pointer interactions.

For developers

There are two group of sources and corresponding builds.

  1. React component library

    Code for component library is in ./src/lib directory. This is to be published to npm after build, $ npm run build:lib, which produces output to ./dist directory

  2. Storybook documentation.

    Code for Storybook is in ./src/stories. Storybook documents and demonstrates the usage of each component. It is deployed to Github Pages.

    When main branch is updated, a Github Action runs the build command, $ npm run build:storybook, which writes to ./storybook-static directory, and the Github Action deploys the direcory to the Github Pages.
