Goals

  • load OL source in browser without installing
  • create build with OL source without installing
  • load OL build in browser

Basic tools

  • import maps: supported in Deno and Chrome (by default from v89), Node Rollup partially with plugin, deno-rollup with plugin, denopack with plugin (denopack does not work with 1.7.0, so installed deno163 and edited ~/.deno/bin/denopack to use it, but denopack seems to be inactive)
  • jspm.dev or esm.sh can serve npm packages as ES module; jspm serves zipped file which rollup import map plugin can't use; esm.sh serves unzipped file
  • deno info xxx (gives dependency graph)
  • rollup/terser in Node; needs
  • deno-rollup (Rollup for Deno) supports rollup for remote urls, uses denopack Terser plugin, and has plugin for (partial) import map support

External deps

OL

  • rbush (used in layer/BaseVector, source/Vector, interaction/Modify)
  • pbf (used by MVT)
  • ol-mapbox-style (in package.json, but only used in an example)

proj

defs and reprojection modules

Solutions

  • for rbush/pbf (always built):
    • import map: map rbush with https://jspm.dev/npm:rbush@3.0.1!cjs (faster on Chrome) or https://esm.sh/rbush (Rollup with plugin)
    • deno-rollup can use a simple plugin to map 'rbush' and 'ol/'
    • if other bundlers support import maps, could edit ol code to use url
    • better would be for rbush/pbf to provide ES-module version on npm/gh
  • for proj:
    • currently bundle-external, hard-coded as 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/probins/myproj@0.4.2/...; would have to be changed on new version (then again, probably won't happen very often)
    • import map would be better, but can only use when implemented in all browsers
    • could bundle with user code, or download so can use relative address

Alternative strategies

  1. code entry points as https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/openlayers/openlayers@6.4.3/src/ol/...; this means all entry points have to be changed every time new version
  2. code entry points as ol/..., and use import map to map to jsdelivr
  3. code entry points as deps.js, and then have different deps.js files
    • default deps.js has export * from './ext/ol.js' (single-build file)
    • depsfromoldeps.js has export * from './oldeps.js', which re-exports all ol imports: for example, export { default as Map } from 'ol/Map.js';, i.e. named exports
    • depsfromoldepscdn.js has export * from './oldepscdn.js', which exports from jsDelivr, e.g. export { default as Map } from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/openlayers/openlayers@6.4.3/src/ol/Map.js'; (of course, all imports in oldepscdn.js have to be changed whenever new version)

Module conversion

  • user-code modules import { Class/function } from 'ol/...';, and then access imported name, for example, new Map(); all old ol.*** function calls etc in modules have to be changed to use imported name, e.g. controlDefaults; beware of conflicting names.

Loading options

  • browser loading source with import map: use baseURL: lib/ (could also be used with dist/ if needed)
  • browser loading split-file build (import map not needed): use baseURL: split/

Split build (without deps.js)

Code splitting; include map-make code in build

  • user code needs to refer to ol/... (for building with import map)
  • can use deno run -A --unstable ./drollup.split.js, though first clear dir (everything other than css/, font/, initloader.js)
    • changes output config to dir
    • lists all entry points
    • outputs to split/
    • myproj is external; component exts are bundled in
  • creates 98k olMap, 27k size, 12k toolbar (total 156k) for minimal map; + 140k vectors, 37k draw, 34k TileImage, and small files for everything else. Total size 492K.
  • initloader.js needs to be Tersered to dist/ whenever changed
  • OL should have better tree-shaking:
    • View imports vectors whether used or not
    • remove 3857/4326 variants
    • format/geometry deps wrong way round; separate read/write
    • PluggableMap not much use any more (to be removed in v7)

OL's examples

Use relative addresses from src, e.g. import Map from '../src/ol/Map.js';, which is then built with parcel build --experimental-scope-hoisting --public-url . index.html; this creates small minified simple.js, plus 240kB common.js; displays js with Node-style addresses with no .js, e.g. import Map from 'ol/Map';, which is what is also given as example in Readme

OL imports

ol is imported in:

  • mongo.js (Feature, GeoJSON), olMap.js (Map, controlDefaults, ScaleLine, GroupLayer, transform, View, Control), rasters.js (Projection, transformExtent), select.js (Select, unByKey), vectors.js (transformExtent, VectorSource, VectorLayer, Style, Stroke, Fill, Circle)
  • registry/components/center.js (transform), cursorposition.js (MousePosition), draw.js (Draw, Modify, unByKey, LineString, Feature), geolocation.js (Overlay, transform), mapdef.js (transform), placesearch.js (transform), popup.js (Overlay), serialise.js (Feature), tooltip.js (Select)
  • registry/projections/common.js (addProjection, Projection, addCoordinateTransforms)
  • registry/sources/bing/common.js (Bing, TileLayer), gb/os.js, it/pcn.js, it/pcn32633.js, pt/dgt/sc.js, pt/dgt/sc200.js, si/gurs.js, tileimage.js (TileGrid, TileImage, TileLayer), wms.js (TileGrid, TileLayer, TileWMS), wmts.js (WMTSTileGrid, TileLayer, WMTS), xyz.js (TileGrid, TileLayer, XYZ)
