ol-source-cluster

Layer source to cluster vector data.

Works out of the box with point geometries. For other geometry types, or if not all geometries should be considered for clustering, a custom geometryFunction can be defined.

Demo

Setup

Plugin usage

This component is part of the Sources 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 Sources plugin
ts
import { createApp } from "vue";
import App from "./App.vue";

import {
  Map,
  Layers,
  Sources,
} from "vue3-openlayers";

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

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 Sources.

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.).

This example shows how to do clustering on 1000 point features.

vue
<template>
  <ol-map
    ref="map"
    :loadTilesWhileAnimating="true"
    :loadTilesWhileInteracting="true"
    style="height: 400px"
  >
    <ol-view
      ref="view"
      :center="center"
      :zoom="zoom"
      :projection="projection"
    />

    <ol-tile-layer>
      <ol-source-osm />
    </ol-tile-layer>

      <ol-source-cluster :distance="40">
        <ol-source-vector>
          <ol-feature v-for="index in 300" :key="index">
            <ol-geom-point
              :coordinates="arrayWith500Points[index - 1]"
            ></ol-geom-point>
          </ol-feature>

  </ol-map>
</template>

<script setup>
import { ref } from "vue";
import { arrayWith500Points } from "./points";

const center = ref([34, 39.13]);
const projection = ref("EPSG:4326");
const zoom = ref(6.8);

const overrideStyleFunction = (feature, style, resolution) => {
  console.log({ feature, style, resolution });
  const clusteredFeatures = feature.get("features");
  const size = clusteredFeatures.length;
  style.getText().setText(size.toString());
  return style;
};

Properties

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.

Deviating Properties

None.

Events

You have access to all Events from the underlying source. Check out the official OpenLayers docs to see the available events tht will be fired.

html
<ol-source-cluster @error="handleEvent" />

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-source-cluster :distance="40" ref="sourceRef" />
  <!-- ... -->
</template>

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

const sourceRef = ref<{ source: Cluster }>(null);

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