GOAL: Add data-attribute to leaflet.js marker element markup
I have a project with a map and a 'spotlight' area.
The map is populated with locations using leaflet.js
When I click a pin on the map, I want to have it's corresponding image and information appear in the spotlight area.
I did a preliminary test with no map: http://codepen.io/sheriffderek/pen/yOmjLV Where I used data-attributed to connect the 2 sides of the coin. ( one set of data is spit out by PHP and the map data is an API ajax call )
I took for granted that it would be an accessible option to add classes or Id's or data or rel etc. Here's the meat of it:
// Purveyor types - for query endpoints
var bar = 4;
var retailer = 3;
// Create the "map"
var onSiteMap = L.map('on-site-map').setView([34.0758661, -118.25430590], 13);
// Define the pin (no SVG?)
var onSiteIcon = L.divIcon({
className: 'my-div-icon' // this gets one class name as far as I can tell
});
// Setup map "Look"
L.tileLayer('http://{s}.tile.osm.org/{z}/{x}/{y}.png').addTo(onSiteMap);
// Grab the data
$.ajax( {
url: 'http://xxxxxx.com/wp-json/wp/v2/purveyor?purveyor-type=' + bar,
success: function ( data ) {
var purveyorData = data;
for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
var ourLat = purveyorData[i].acf.purveyor_latitude;
var ourLong = purveyorData[i].acf.purveyor_longitude;
var ourSlug = purveyorData[i].slug;
// create the markers
L.marker([ ourLat , ourLong ], {
icon: onSiteIcon,
slug: ourSlug // creates an extra option... but...
}).addTo(onSiteMap);
}
},
cache: false
});
I can add an 'option' and a unique value for that - to the object, but that doesn't help me get something into the markup.
The element for the markers ends up like this:
<div
class="leaflet-marker-icon my-div-icon leaflet-zoom-animated leaflet-clickable"
tabindex="0" style="margin-left: -6px; margin-top: -6px; width: 12px; height: 12px; transform: translate3d(276px, 140px, 0px); z-index: 140;"></div>
Trying to get something more like this:
<div
id='possible-id-237'
rel='possible-rel'
data-name='this-slug'
class="leaflet-marker-icon my-div-icon leaflet-zoom-animated leaflet-clickable"
tabindex="0" style="margin-left: -6px; margin-top: -6px; width: 12px; height: 12px; transform: translate3d(276px, 140px, 0px); z-index: 140;"></div>
I've researched a bit - and most questions were 2014 or older. Hoping there is something I'm missing in the new docs.
