Introduction

Angular is a development platform for building WEB, mobile, and desktop applications using HTML, CSS, and TypeScript (JavaScript). Currently, Angular is at version 12, and Google is the main maintainer of the project. Leaflet is an interactive maps component library that supports mobile devices.

Prerequisites

Before you start, you need to install and configure the tools:

Getting Started

Create and Configure the Account on the Mapbox

1. Let's create the account. Access the site https://www.mapbox.com/ and click on the button Sign up.

Mapbox - Home page

2. Fill in the fields Username, Email, Password, First name, Last name, click on the checkbox I agree to the Mapbox Terms of Service and Privacy Policy and click on the button Get started.

3. Check the registered email.

4. Click on the link in the email sent.

Mapbox - Confirm email

Mapbox - Confirm email

5. Copy the token displayed in the Dashboard menu and, in my case, the token was displayed pk.eyJ1IjoiYnJhc2thbSIsImEiOiJja3NqcXBzbWoyZ3ZvMm5ybzA4N2dzaDR6In0.RUAYJFnNgOnnZAw because this token will be configured in the Angular application.

6. Ready! Account created and token generated.

Create the Angular application

1. Now let’s create the application with the Angular base structure using the @angular/cli with the route file and the SCSS style format.

ng new angular-leaflet

✔ Packages installed successfully.

2. Install and configure the Bootstrap CSS framework. Complete steps 2 and 3 of the post Adding the Bootstrap CSS framework to an Angular application.

3. Configure the Mapbox token in the src/environments/environment.ts and src/environments/environment.prod.ts files as below.

mapbox: {
  accessToken: 'pk.eyJ1IjoiYnJhc2thbSIsImEiOiJja3NqcXBzbWoyZ3ZvMm5ybzA4N2dzaDR6In0.RUAYJFnNgOnn80wXkrV9ZA',
},

4. Create the src/assets/images folder and copy the marker-icon.png and marker-shadow.png files.

Marker Icon

Marker Icon

Marker Shadow

Marker Shadow

5. Install the leaflet and @types/leaflet libraries.

npm install leaflet @types/leaflet

6. Configure the leaflet library. Change the angular.json file and add the leaflet.css file as below.

"styles": [
  "node_modules/bootstrap/scss/bootstrap.scss",
  "node_modules/bootstrap-icons/font/bootstrap-icons.css",
  "node_modules/leaflet/dist/leaflet.css",
  "src/styles.scss"
],

7. Remove the contents of the AppComponent class from the src/app/app.component.ts file. Import the leaflet service and create the getCurrentPosition, loadMap methods as shown below.

import { AfterViewInit, Component } from '@angular/core';
import { Observable, Subscriber } from 'rxjs';
import * as L from 'leaflet';

import { environment } from '../environments/environment';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.scss'],
})
export class AppComponent implements AfterViewInit {

  map: any;

  constructor() {
  }

  public ngAfterViewInit(): void {
    this.loadMap();
  }

  private getCurrentPosition(): any {
    return new Observable((observer: Subscriber<any>) => {
      if (navigator.geolocation) {
        navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition((position: any) => {
          observer.next({
            latitude: position.coords.latitude,
            longitude: position.coords.longitude,
          });
          observer.complete();
        });
      } else {
        observer.error();
      }
    });
  }

  private loadMap(): void {
    this.map = L.map('map').setView([0, 0], 1);
    L.tileLayer('https://api.mapbox.com/styles/v1/{id}/tiles/{z}/{x}/{y}?access_token={accessToken}', {
      attribution: 'Map data © <a href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright">OpenStreetMap</a> contributors, Imagery © <a href="https://www.mapbox.com/">Mapbox</a>',
      maxZoom: 18,
      id: 'mapbox/streets-v11',
      tileSize: 512,
      zoomOffset: -1,
      accessToken: environment.mapbox.accessToken,
    }).addTo(this.map);

    this.getCurrentPosition()
    .subscribe((position: any) => {
      this.map.flyTo([position.latitude, position.longitude], 13);

      const icon = L.icon({
        iconUrl: 'assets/images/marker-icon.png',
        shadowUrl: 'assets/images/marker-shadow.png',
        popupAnchor: [13, 0],
      });

      const marker = L.marker([position.latitude, position.longitude], { icon }).bindPopup('Angular Leaflet');
      marker.addTo(this.map);
    });
  }

}

8. Remove the contents of the src/app/app.component.html file. Add the map div tag as shown below.

<div class="container-fluid py-3">
  <h1>Angular Leaflet</h1>

  <div id="map"></div>
</div>

9. Add the style in the src/app/app.component.scss file as shown below.

#map {
  height: 400px;
  width: 100%;
  max-width: 600px;
}

10. Run the application with the command below.

npm start

> [email protected] start
> ng serve

✔ Browser application bundle generation complete.
