Simple API Help

This page describes how to use the Simple API. The Simple API provides a JavaScript API for inserting simple maps into web pages.

Basis

To use the API you should add the following HTML:

<script
  src="https://cdn.polyfill.io/v2/polyfill.min.js?features=es6,default-3.6,Array.prototype.includes,Object.entries,Object.values"
  crossorigin="anonymous">
</script>
<link href="https://geomapfish-demo-2-8.camptocamp.com/api.css" rel="stylesheet">
<script src="https://geomapfish-demo-2-8.camptocamp.com/api.js?version=2"></script>
<script>
window.onload = function() {
    // add the code here
};
</script>
            

To put a new map in the page you'll have to put a div element with a certain id where you want your map to be:

<div id='map1' style='width:700px;height:400px;'></div>

const map1 = new demo.Map({
    div: 'map1', // id of the div element to put the map in
    zoom: 4,
    center: [2544500, 1210100]
});
                    

const map2 = new demo.Map({
    div: 'map2',
    zoom: 7,
    backgroundLayers: ['OSM map'],
    center: [2544500, 1210100]
});
map2.addMarker();
                    

const map3 = new demo.Map({
    div: 'map3',
    zoom: 7,
    center: [2544500, 1210100]
});
map3.addMarker({
    position: [2544410, 1210100],
    size: [14, 14],
    icon: 'img/info.png'
});
map3.addMarker({
    position: [2544450, 1210000],
    size: [18, 18],
    icon: 'img/essence.png'
});
map3.addMarker({
    position: [2544310, 1210200],
    size: [14, 14],
    icon: 'img/parking.png'
});
                    

const map4 = new demo.Map({
    div: 'map4',
    zoom: 0,
    center: [2590000, 1170000],
    layers: ['ch.astra.hauptstrassennetz', 'polygon', 'point']
});
                    

const map5 = new demo.Map({
    div: 'map5',
    zoom: 3,
    center: [2544500, 1210100],
    layers: ['osm_open'],
    addLayerSwitcher: true,
    addMiniMap: true,
    miniMapExpanded: true,
    showCoords: true
});
                    

const map6 = new demo.Map({
    div: 'map6',
    addMiniMap: true,
    miniMapExpanded: false
});
const button1 = document.getElementById('button1');
button1.onclick = function() {
    map6.recenter([2543500, 1202154], 7);
}
const button2 = document.getElementById('button2');
button2.onclick = function() {
    map6.recenter([2564500, 1216100], 9);
}
                    

const map7 = new demo.Map({
    div: 'map7',
    layers: ['polygon']
});
map7.recenterOnObjects(
    /* the layer name */
    'polygon',
    /* the ids of the objects */
    ['94', '125'],
    /* whether to highlight the objects or not */
    true
);
                    

const map8 = new demo.Map({
    div: 'map8'
});
map8.addCustomLayer('text', 'My custom txt layer', 'data.txt', {
  success: function() {
    map8.selectObject(2);
  }
});
                    

const map9 = new demo.Map({
    div: 'map9',
    zoom: 3,
    center: [2544500, 1210100],
    searchDiv: 'map9search'
});
