Setup

Plugin usage

This component is part of the MapControls plugin. If not installed globally, you need to import and use the plugin in your main.ts or use the explicit component import (see section below).

Import and use the MapControls plugin
ts
import { createApp } from "vue";
import App from "./App.vue";

import {

  Map,
  Layers,
  Sources,
  MapControls,
} from "vue3-openlayers";

const app = createApp(App);
// ...
app.use(MapControls); 
// ...

Explicit import

If you don't want to install a plugin, you can import the component explicitly. It's available as a child of the named export MapControls.

NOTE

The following documentation refers to the plugin usage. Please make sure to adopt the component names, when you decided to use explicit component imports (e. g. <ol-map> becomes <Map.OlMap> etc.).

Props from OpenLayers

Properties are passed-trough from OpenLayers directly. Their types and default values can be checked-out in the official OpenLayers docs. Only some properties deviate caused by reserved keywords from Vue / HTML. This deviating props are described in the section below.

Methods

You have access to all Methods from the underlying source. Check out the official OpenLayers docs to see the available methods.

To access the source, you can use a ref() as shown below:

vue
<template>
  <!-- ... -->
  <ol-overviewmap-control :ref="controlRef">
    <!-- ... -->
  </ol-overviewmap-control>
  <!-- ... -->
</template>

<script setup lang="ts">
import { ref, onMounted } from "vue";
import type OverviewMap from "ol/control/OverviewMap";

const controlRef = ref<{ control: OverviewMap }>(null);

onMounted(() => {
  const controlRef: OverviewMap = sourceRef.value?.control;
  // call your method on `control`
});
</script>
