Appearance

ol-view ​

A View object represents a simple 2D view of the map.

This is the object to act upon to change the center, resolution, and rotation of the map.

A View has a projection. The projection determines the coordinate system of the center, and its units determine the units of the resolution (projection units per pixel). The default projection is Spherical Mercator (EPSG:3857).

Demo ​

Setup ​

Plugin usage ​

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

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

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

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 Map.

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.

Deviating Properties ​

enableRotation ​

Rotation is enabled by default. Setting this to false prevents from any rotation even when the property rotation is set or by using methods such ad adjustRotation or setRotation.

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-view @error="handleEvent">
  <!-- ... -->
</ol-view>

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-view ref="viewRef" @error="handleEvent">
    <!-- ... -->
  </ol-view>
  <!-- ... -->
</template>

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

const viewRef = ref<{ view: View }>(null);

onMounted(() => {
  const view: View = viewRef.value?.view;
  // call your method on `view`
});
</script>
