Using arbitrary Leaflet plugins with Leaflet for R

README.md

Using arbitrary Leaflet JS plugins with Leaflet for R

The Leaflet JS mapping library has lots of plugins available. The Leaflet package for R provides direct support for some, but far from all, of these plugins, by providing R functions for invoking the plugins.

If you as an R user find yourself wanting to use a Leaflet plugin that isn't directly supported in the R package, you can use the technique shown here to load the plugin yourself and invoke it using JS code.

leaflet-esri.R

library(leaflet)
library(htmltools)
library(htmlwidgets)

# This tells htmlwidgets about our plugin name, version, and
# where to find the script. (There's also a stylesheet argument
# if the plugin comes with CSS files.)
esriPlugin <- htmlDependency("leaflet.esri", "1.0.3",
  src = c(href = "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/leaflet.esri/1.0.3/"),
  script = "esri-leaflet.js"
)

# A function that takes a plugin htmlDependency object and adds
# it to the map. This ensures that however or whenever the map
# gets rendered, the plugin will be loaded into the browser.
registerPlugin <- function(map, plugin) {
  map$dependencies <- c(map$dependencies, list(plugin))
  map
}


leaflet() %>% setView(-122.23, 37.75, zoom = 10) %>%
  # Register ESRI plugin on this map instance
  registerPlugin(esriPlugin) %>%
  # Add your custom JS logic here. The `this` keyword
  # refers to the Leaflet (JS) map object.
  onRender("function(el, x) {
    L.esri.basemapLayer('Topographic').addTo(this);
  }")

leaflet-heat.R

# This example shows the ability to pass extra R data to onRender.
# At the time of this writing it requires a custom build of htmlwidgets:
# devtools::install_github("ramnathv/htmlwidgets@joe/feature/onrender-data")
#
# Track the progress of this functionality at
# https://github.com/ramnathv/htmlwidgets/pull/202

library(leaflet)
library(htmltools)
library(htmlwidgets)
library(dplyr)

heatPlugin <- htmlDependency("Leaflet.heat", "99.99.99",
  src = c(href = "http://leaflet.github.io/Leaflet.heat/dist/"),
  script = "leaflet-heat.js"
)

registerPlugin <- function(map, plugin) {
  map$dependencies <- c(map$dependencies, list(plugin))
  map
}

leaflet() %>% addTiles() %>%
  fitBounds(min(quakes$long), min(quakes$lat), max(quakes$long), max(quakes$lat)) %>%
  registerPlugin(heatPlugin) %>%
  onRender("function(el, x, data) {
    data = HTMLWidgets.dataframeToD3(data);
    data = data.map(function(val) { return [val.lat, val.long, val.mag*100]; });
    L.heatLayer(data, {radius: 25}).addTo(this);
  }", data = quakes %>% select(lat, long, mag))

Hello everybody,

First, I'm not sure it's the good place to post so sorry if it's not.

I'm trying to add a rotatedMarker in my leaflet map using a leafletProxy.
Unfortunatly it's not working.

Puting it directly in the leaflet map works fine.

here is the code.

Thanks for the help.

YES! Thank you

@bhaskarvk 's comment of substituting the src call inside htmlDependency for normalizePath and downloading the zipfile to the specified path allowed me to run locally his pulsating marker example, which I could not run before

I am trying to use the SideBySide plugin, however without any luck at the moment. I tried the suggestion of downloading the file and this answer here. Below what I am trying to run (using chrome under fedora 27). I can see the first layer but not the handle to compare the two.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

LeafletSideBySidePlugin <- htmlDependency("leaflet-side-by-side","2.0.0",
                                          src = normalizePath("/full/path/to/folder/with/js"),
                                          script="leaflet-side-by-side.js")

registerPlugin <- function(map, plugin) {
  map$dependencies <- c(map$dependencies, list(plugin))
  map
}

leaflet() %>%
 registerPlugin(LeafletSideBySidePlugin) %>%
  onRender("
           function(el, x) {
           var mylayer1 = L.tileLayer(
           'http://{s}.tile.openstreetmap.org/{z}/{x}/{y}.png',{
           maxZoom: 18
           }).addTo(this);
           var mylayer2 = L.tileLayer(
           '//stamen-tiles-{s}.a.ssl.fastly.net/watercolor/{z}/{x}/{y}.png',{
           maxZoom: 14
           }).addTo(this);
           L.control.sideBySide(mylayer1, mylayer2).addTo(this);
          } ")

This gist is really helpful and on point and exactly what I was looking for. I tried using the method to use the "Leaflet playback" plugin.

My code looks like this:

# Draw a line from startPoint to Endpoint on the map
                    leafletProxy(mapId = "map") %>%
                        onRender(
                            "function(el, x, data) {
                                // Initialize playback
                                var playback = new L.Playback(this, data, onPlaybackTimeChange);
                                console.log('Inside leaflet playback');
                            };
                            
                            // A callback so timeline is set after changing playback time
                            function onPlaybackTimeChange (ms) {
                                //timeline.setCustomTime(new Date(ms));
                            };", data = geojson_ends
                        )

I register the plugin with the first call to leaflet where I create the map. Two functions are created inside the onRender as L.PLayback needs a callback function onPalybackTimeChange. The leafletproxy is just used for updating the plot. As such I don't think this is working. No error, just no change in behavior.

• Is there a way to debug this? I tried putting a console.log to see it gets printed, no luck.
• Is there a way I can use "Developer tools" to inspect the code in the the browser? If yes, which file should I look for? Apparently, shiny creates a bunch of files.
• Any other hints/comments?

This is really helpful information. We are trying implement the 'leaflet-measure' plugin but it simply does not render properly (renders without any icons being displayed). This post seems like a promising solution, but on trial and error, it fails to load any plugins that are of type leaflet-control. Dunno if this is the correct place to post, but I would really appreciate some help to rectify the issue.
Here's my code to use the leaflet-control type plugins using this method.

`library(leaflet)
library(htmltools)
library(htmlwidgets)

LeafletMeasure <- htmlDependency("leaflet-measure","3.1.0",
src = c(href="https://github.com/ljigis/leaflet-measure/src"),
script="leaflet-measure.js",
stylesheet = "https://github.com/ljigis/leaflet-measure/scss/leaflet-measure.scss")

registerPlugin <- function(map, plugin) {
map$dependencies <- c(map$dependencies, list(plugin))
map
}

leaflet() %>% addTiles() %>%
setView(lng = 12, lat = 50, zoom = 4) %>%
registerPlugin(LeafletMeasure) %>%
onRender("
function(el, x) {
measureControl.addTo(this);}")`

The plugin has a scss that is in a different folder from the standard src folder. I have tried referencing the file through the Github repository as well as local copy.

Wow, sorry, I didn't know there were so many messages posted here over the years. @Jigar-S, leaflet-measure is already bundled with the leaflet R package, just do leaflet() %>% addMeasure() for example.

For the rest of you, I'd focus on the following for debugging:

1. Are my JS/CSS resources being properly attached? (BTW, you can't use .scss or .less files from htmlDependency directly, they have to be compiled to .css first for the browser to understand them.) You can use Chrome Developer Tools to see if there are any errors in the Console tab about JS and CSS URLs not being downloaded, and look in the Elements tab to see if the proper JS/CSS links are in the <head> of the document.
2. Am I getting any JS errors? Again, use the Chrome Developer Tools' Console tab to see if there are errors. If there are, you need to fix those first.
3. If the previous steps pass, or you have trouble figuring out the cause of the errors, then try the JS Debugger. One easy way is to add the statement debugger; to the start of your onRender function's JS function. Then, if you load the page with Chrome Developer Tools enabled, the JS debugger should pause just inside your JS function. With the debugger paused, you can examine the values of this, el, x, etc. to see if everything matches your expectations.

If you have continued problems, feel free to file an issue on the rstudio/leaflet repository, or drop by https://community.rstudio.com/c/shiny.

@jcheng5, thank you for this thread and all the directions.
Sharing our successful integration of one JS plugin for tile-layer opacity.
Shiny app code is here. The js/css files have to be downloaded before execution.
The bulk of the work was to find the Leaflet JS 'hook-up' objects, which are not documented.

@helgasoft, thank you for sharing your code! Do you know the 'hook-up' object syntaxes for polygons, polylines or markers?
My attempt to integrate the leaflet-groupedlayercontrol plugin have so far been unsuccessful. Thanks in advance for any tips you might offer.

@micahwilhelm, here is the code on how to integrate this plugin.
I wish someone could find a way to add group markers from R, not only from Javascript...

@helgasoft
@jcheng5

Great work! do you know how you would do something like this with a map that is already constructed with mapview?

I would like to make the resulting map's legend say:

Places
|-> names
|-> village
Other
|-> Changed Name

install.packages("mapview")
install.packages("dplyr")
install.packages("magrittr")
library(mapview)
library(dplyr)
library(magrittr)

names = breweries %>%
select(brewery)

village = breweries %>%
select(village)

Complicated Name_layer = breweries %>%
select(number.of.types)

mapview(names, legend = F) +
mapview(village, legend = F) +
mapview(Complicated Name_layer, legend = F)

Thank you so much!!

@jcheng5 and community

Does anyone know how to successfully pass R objects into the JS logic?

My attempt:

@nash1119 - why not just paste the value inside the JS code string:

library(leaflet)
library(htmltools)
library(htmlwidgets)
beautifyPlugin <- htmlDependency( "Beautify", "1.0.9",
                                 src = c(href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/"),
                                 script = "leaflet-beautify-marker-icon.min.js",
                                 stylesheet = "leaflet-beautify-marker-icon.min.css"
)
fontawesomePlugin <- htmlDependency( "fontawesome", "4.5.0",
                                    src = c(href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.5.0/css/"),
                                    stylesheet = "font-awesome.min.css"
)
registerPlugin <- function(map, plugin) {
  map$dependencies <- c(map$dependencies, list(plugin))
  map
}
myIcon <- 'leaf'
leaflet() %>% setView(-122.23, 37.75, zoom = 10) %>% addTiles()%>%
 registerPlugin(fontawesomePlugin) %>% 
 registerPlugin(beautifyPlugin) %>%
 onRender(paste0("function(el, x) {
	L.marker([37.77, -122.40] , 
		{icon: L.BeautifyIcon.icon({ icon:'" ,myIcon, "', iconShape: 'marker' }) }).addTo(this).bindPopup('test');
 }"))

@helgasoft thank you!

@rickyars @Bignoozer @chintanp or anyone, did you ever find a solution to why this does not seem to work with leafletProxy()? I am currently having this issue. Thanks!

@nash1119 @rickyars @Bignoozer @chintanp please take a look at the question below:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52846472/leaflet-plugin-and-leafletproxy-with-polylinedecorator-as-example

It worked for my case as a workaround. You need to anticipate what is coming by creating a function associated to an event listener inside onRender, and call this directly on leaflet, not leafletProxy.

Maybe @jcheng5 could have some idea on why the main approach described in this gist doesn't work well with leafletProxy.

Hello,
some of you have experience about integration of Leaflet.LayerTreePlugin with R Shiny

leaflet() %>% addTiles() %>%
  registerPlugin(layerTreePlugin) %>%
  onRender("function(el, x) {
  function buildContentFromLayer(layer) {

		var properties = layer.feature.properties;
		for (var i in properties) {
