Leaflet Geometry Management
A Leaflet Plugin For Creating And Editing Geometry Layers in Leaflet 1.0.
Draw, Edit, Drag, and Snap Features.
In the name "leaflet.pm" the "pm" stands for Polygon Management. At the time, this plugin only supported polygons. Now you can edit Markers, Polylines, Polygons, LayerGroups, GeoJSON and more are coming.

Why another geometry editing plugin?
As leaflet.draw development seemed to came to a halt and I needed support for leaflet 1.0 I created this plugin myself due to a lack of alternatives.
As we are always using the latest leaflet version in a big production app, I will (have to) keep this plugin constantly developed.
Getting Started
Install via npm
npm install leaflet.pm --save
Install via Bower (DEPRECATED - leaflet.pm is no longer supporting bower since 0.17.0)
bower install leaflet.pm --save
Install Manually
Download https://unpkg.com/leaflet.pm@0.17.1/dist/leaflet.pm.css and https://unpkg.com/leaflet.pm@0.17.1/dist/leaflet.pm.min.js and include them in your project.
Include via CDN
CSS
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://unpkg.com/leaflet.pm@0.17.1/dist/leaflet.pm.css" />
JS
<script src="https://unpkg.com/leaflet.pm@0.17.1/dist/leaflet.pm.min.js"></script>
Include as ES6 Module
import 'leaflet.pm';
import 'leaflet.pm/dist/leaflet.pm.css';
Include as CommonJS Module
require('leaflet.pm');
require('leaflet.pm/dist/leaflet.pm.css');
Init Leaflet.PM
Just include leaflet.pm.min.js right after Leaflet. It initializes itself.
If you want certain layers to be ignored by leaflet.pm, pass pmIgnore: true to their options when creating them. Example:
L.marker([51.50915, -0.096112], {pmIgnore: true}).addTo(map);
Leaflet.PM Toolbar
This plugin comes with an optional toolbar to give you buttons to use the various features.
// define toolbar options
var options = {
position: 'topleft', // toolbar position, options are 'topleft', 'topright', 'bottomleft', 'bottomright'
drawMarker: true, // adds button to draw markers
drawPolygon: true, // adds button to draw a polygon
drawPolyline: true, // adds button to draw a polyline
editPolygon: true, // adds button to toggle global edit mode
deleteLayer: true // adds a button to delete layers
};
// add leaflet.pm controls to the map
map.pm.addControls(options);
If no options are passed, all buttons will be shown.
Drawing Mode
Use Drawing Mode on a map like this
// optional options for line style during draw. These are the defaults
var options = {
// snapping
snappable: true,
snapDistance: 20,
// the lines between coordinates/markers
templineStyle: {
color: 'red',
},
// the line from the last marker to the mouse cursor
hintlineStyle: {
color: 'red',
dashArray: [5, 5],
},
// show a marker at the cursor
cursorMarker: false,
// finish drawing on double click
// this works, but if you enable it, there is a problem that's not fixed yet:
// https://github.com/codeofsumit/leaflet.pm/issues/147
finishOnDoubleClick: false,
// custom marker style (only for Marker draw)
markerStyle: {
opacity: 0.5,
draggable: true,
}
};
// enable drawing mode for shape - e.g. Poly or Line
map.pm.enableDraw('Poly', options);
map.pm.enableDraw('Line', options);
map.pm.enableDraw('Marker', options);
map.pm.enableDraw('Circle', options);
// get array of all available shapes
map.pm.Draw.getShapes()
// listen to when drawing mode gets enabled
map.on('pm:drawstart', function(e) {//...});
// disable drawing mode
map.pm.disableDraw('Poly');
// listen to when drawing mode gets disabled
map.on('pm:drawend', function(e) {//...});
// listen to when a new layer is created
map.on('pm:create', function(e) {//...});
Edit Mode
Use Edit Mode for a layer like this:
var polygonLayer = L.geoJson(data).addTo(map);
// optional options
var options = {
// makes the layer draggable
draggable: true,
// makes the vertices snappable to other layers
// temporarily disable snapping during drag by pressing ALT
snappable: true,
// distance in pixels that needs to be undercut to trigger snapping
// default: 30
snapDistance: 30
};
// enable edit mode
polygonLayer.pm.enable(options);
marker.pm.enable(options);
// disable edit mode
polygonLayer.pm.disable();
// toggle edit mode
polygonLayer.pm.toggleEdit(options);
// check if edit mode is enabled
polygonLayer.pm.enabled(); // returns true/false
// listen to changes
polygonLayer.on('pm:edit', function(e) {//...});
polygonLayer.on('pm:dragstart', function(e) {//...});
polygonLayer.on('pm:drag', function(e) {//...});
polygonLayer.on('pm:dragend', function(e) {//...});
// listen to when a marker of a polygon-vertex is being dragged
polygonLayer.on('pm:markerdragstart', function(e) {//...});
polygonLayer.on('pm:markerdragend', function(e) {//...});
// listen to when snapping occurs
// pm:snap and pm:unsnap are, in addition to the layer, also fired on the markers of the polygon
// if you'd need it for some advanced behaviour
polygonLayer.on('pm:snap', function(e) {//...});
polygonLayer.on('pm:unsnap', function(e) {//...});
// toggle global edit mode (edit mode for all layers on the map)
map.pm.toggleGlobalEditMode();
Removal Mode
// toggle global removal mode
map.pm.toggleGlobalRemovalMode();
// listen to removal of layers that are NOT ignored and NOT helpers by leaflet.pm
map.on('pm:remove', function(e) {//...})
Customize Style
In order to change the style of the lines during draw, pass these options to the enableDraw() function.
// optional options for line style during draw. These are the defaults
var options = {
// the lines between coordinates/markers
templineStyle: {
color: 'red',
},
// the line from the last marker to the mouse cursor
hintlineStyle: {
color: 'red',
dashArray: [5, 5],
},
};
// enable drawing mode for shape - e.g. Poly or Line
map.pm.enableDraw('Poly', options);
To customize the style of the drawn layer (polygon, polyline) with leaflets options, you can either pass the options to enableDraw as well:
// optional options for line style during draw. These are the defaults
var options = {
templineStyle: {},
hintlineStyle: {},
pathOptions: {
// add leaflet options for polylines/polygons
color: 'orange',
fillColor: 'green',
}
};
// enable drawing mode for shape - e.g. Poly or Line
map.pm.enableDraw('Poly', options);
or set the options generally:
map.pm.setPathOptions({
color: 'orange',
fillColor: 'green',
fillOpacity: 0.4,
});
Credit
As I never built a leaflet plugin before, I looked heavily into the code of leaflet.draw to find out how to do stuff. So don't be surprised to see some familiar code.
The icons used for the toolbar are CC-BY Glyphicons.
I also took a hard look at the great L.GeometryUtil for some of my helper functions.
