Leaflet Changelog

(all changes without author notice are by @mourner)

master

An in-progress version being developed on the master branch.

Breaking changes

  • Moved polyline editing code into Leaflet.draw plugin (where it fits much better along with all other editing and drawing handlers). The API remains the same.

Improvements

Usability and performance improvements

  • Improved zoom control design once more - cleaner, simpler, more accessible (mostly by @jacobtoye). #1313
  • Improved TileLayer zoom animation to eliminate flickering in case one tile layer on top of another or when zooming several times quickly. #1140 #1437 #52

  • Improved paths with clickable: false to allow mouse events to pass through to objects underneath (by @snkashis). #1384 #1281
  • Improved attribution control to be much less obtrusive (no "powered by", just a Leaflet link). You can still remove the prefix with map.attributionControl.setPrefix('') if you need.
  • Improved zoom behavior so that there's no drift of coordinates when you change zoom back and forth without panning. #426
  • Improved box zoom to be cancelable by pressing Escape (by @yohanboniface). #1438

  • Added Marker setPopupContent method (by @snkashis). #1373
  • Added Control getContainer method. #1409
  • Added ability to pass coordinates as simple objects ({lat: 50, lon: 30} or {lat: 50, lng: 30}). #1412
  • Added Map remove method to properly destroy the map and clean up all events (by @jfirebaugh). #1434 #1101
  • Added TileLayer getContainer method (by @tmcw). #1433

0.4 (July 30, 2012)

API simplification

Leaflet 0.4 contains several API improvements that allow simpler, jQuery-like syntax (example) while being backwards compatible with the previous approach (so you can use both styles):

  • Improved most methods and options to accept LatLng, LatLngBounds, Point and Bounds values in an array form (e.g. map.panTo([lat, lng]) will be the same as map.panTo(new L.LatLng(lat, lng)))
  • Added addTo method to all layer classes, e.g. marker.addTo(map) is equivalent to map.addLayer(marker)
  • Added factory methods to most classes to be able to write code without new keyword, named the same as classes but starting with a lowercase letter, e.g. L.map('map') is the same as new L.Map('map')

Notable new features

  • Added configurable panning inertia - after a quick pan, the map slows down in the same direction.
  • Added keyboard navigation for panning/zooming with keyboard arrows and +/- keys (by @ericmmartinez). #663 #646
  • Added smooth zoom animation of markers, vector layers, image overlays and popups (by @danzel). #740 #758
  • Added Android 4+ pinch-zoom support (by @danzel). #774
  • Added polyline and polygon editing. #174
  • Added an unobtrusive scale control.
  • Added DivIcon class that easily allows you to create lightweight div-based markers.
  • Added Rectangle vector layer (by @JasonSanford). #504

Improvements

Usability improvements

  • Improved zooming so that you don't get a blank map when you zoom in or out twice quickly (by @danzel). #7 #729
  • Drag-panning now works even when there are markers in the starting point (helps on maps with lots of markers). #506
  • Improved panning performance even more (there are no wasted frames now).
  • Improved pinch-zoom performance in mobile Chrome and Firefox.
  • Improved map performance on window resize.
  • Replaced box-shadow with border on controls for mobile devices to improve performance.
  • Slightly improved default popup styling.
  • Added TileLayer detectRetina option (false by default) that makes tiles show in a higher resolution on iOS retina displays (by @Mithgol). #586

GeoJSON API changes

GeoJSON API was improved to be simpler and more flexible (example). The changes are not backwards-compatible, so be sure to update your old code.

  • Added style option for styling vector layers, passed either as an object or as a function (to style vector layers according to GeoJSON properties).
  • Added filter option to leave out features that don't correspond to a certain criteria (e.g. based on properties).
  • Added onEachFeature option to execute certain code on each feature layer based on its properties (binding popups, etc).
  • Changed pointToLayer function signature to provide geojson in addition to latlng when creating point features for more flexibility.

Icon API changes

Icon API was improved to be more flexible, but one of the changes is backwards-incompatible: you now need to pass different icon properties (like iconUrl) inside an options object (example).

  • Converted Icon properties to options, changed constructor signature to Icon(options).
  • Moved default marker icon options to L.Icon.Default class (which extends from L.Icon).
  • Added Icon className option to assign a custom class to an icon.
  • Added Icon shadowAnchor option to set the anchor of the shadow.
  • Made all Icon options except iconUrl optional (if not specified, they'll be chosen automatically or implemented using CSS). Anchor is centered by default (if size is specified), and otherwise can be set through CSS using negative margins.

Control API changes

  • Added setPosition and getPosition to all controls, as well as ability to pass certain position as an option when creating a control.
  • Made controls implementation easier (now more magic happens under the hood).
  • Replaced ugly control position constants (e.g. L.Control.Position.TOP_LEFT) with light strings ('topleft', 'bottomright', etc.)

Other breaking API changes

  • Improved TileLayer constructor to interpolate URL template values from options (removed third urlParams argument).
  • Changed TileLayer scheme: 'tms' option to tms: true.
  • Removed Map locateAndSetView method (use locate with setView: true option)
  • Changed popup minWidth and maxWidth options to be applied to content element, not the whole popup.
  • Moved prefix argument to options in Control.Attribution constructor.
  • Renamed L.VERSION to L.version.

Other API improvements

  • Improved on and off methods to also accept (eventHash[, context]), as well as multiple space-separated events (by @Guiswa). #770
  • Improved off to remove all listeners of the event if no function was specified (by @Guiswa). #770 #691
  • Added TileLayer setZIndex method for controlling the order of tile layers (thanks to @mattcurrie). #837
  • Added Control.Layers autoZIndex option (on by default) to preserve the order of tile layers when switching.
  • Added TileLayer redraw method for re-requesting tiles (by @greeninfo). #719
  • Added TileLayer setUrl method for dynamically changing the tile URL template.
  • Added bringToFront and bringToBack methods to TileLayer, ImageOverlay and vector layers. #185 #505
  • Added TileLayer loading event that fires when its tiles start to load (thanks to @lapinos03). #177
  • Added TileLayer.WMS setParams method for setting WMS parameters at runtime (by @greeninfo). #719
  • Added TileLayer.WMS subdomain support ({s} in the url) (by @greeninfo). #735

0.3.1 (February 14, 2012)

  • Fixed a regression where default marker icons wouldn't work if Leaflet include url contained a query string.
  • Fixed a regression where tiles sometimes flickered with black on panning in iOS.

0.3 (February 13, 2012)

Major features

  • Added Canvas backend for vector layers (polylines, polygons, circles). This enables vector support on Android < 3, and it can also be optionally preferred over SVG for a performance gain in some cases. Thanks to @florianf for a big part of this work.

  • Added ability to set max bounds within which users can pan/zoom. #93

Improvements

Usability improvements

  • Map now preserves its center after resize.
  • When panning to another copy of the world (that's infinite horizontally), map overlays now jump to corresponding positions. #273
  • Limited maximum zoom change on a single mouse wheel movement (so you won't zoom across the whole zoom range in one scroll). #149
  • Significantly improved line simplification performance (noticeable when rendering polylines/polygons with tens of thousands of points)
  • Improved circles performance by not drawing them if they're off the clip region.
  • Improved stability of zoom animation (less flickering of tiles).

API improvements

  • Added Map zoomstart event (thanks to @Fabiz). #377
  • Improved Map locate method, added ability to watch location continuously and more options. #212
  • Added second argument inside to Map getBoundsZoom method that allows you to get appropriate zoom for the view to fit inside the given bounds.
  • Added hasLayer method to Map.
  • Added Marker zIndexOffset option to be able to set certain markers below/above others. #65
  • Added urlParams third optional argument to TileLayer constructor for convenience: an object with properties that will be evaluated in the URL template.
  • Added TileLayer continuousWorld option to disable tile coordinates checking/wrapping.
