Source

The Source interface must be implemented by each source type, including "core" types (vector, raster, video, etc.) and all custom, third-party types.

Event data - Fired with {dataType: 'source', sourceDataType: 'metadata'} to indicate that any necessary metadata has been loaded so that it's okay to call loadTile; and with {dataType: 'source', sourceDataType: 'content'} to indicate that the source data has changed, so that any current caches should be flushed.

Methods

abortTile()?

optional abortTile(tile: Tile): Promise<void>

Allows to abort a tile loading.

Parameters

Parameter Type Description
tile Tile The tile to abort

Returns

Promise<void>

Defined in

src/source/source.ts:103


fire()

fire(event: Event): unknown

An ability to fire an event to all the listeners, see Evented

Parameters

Parameter Type Description
event Event The event to fire

Returns

unknown

Defined in

src/source/source.ts:77


hasTile()?

optional hasTile(tileID: OverscaledTileID): boolean

True is the tile is part of the source, false otherwise.

Parameters

Parameter Type Description
tileID OverscaledTileID The tile ID

Returns

boolean

Defined in

src/source/source.ts:98


hasTransition()

hasTransition(): boolean

True if the source has transition, false otherwise.

Returns

boolean

Defined in

src/source/source.ts:68


loadTile()

loadTile(tile: Tile): Promise<void>

This method does the heavy lifting of loading a tile. In most cases it will defer the work to the relevant worker source.

Parameters

Parameter Type Description
tile Tile The tile to load

Returns

Promise<void>

Defined in

src/source/source.ts:93


loaded()

loaded(): boolean

True if the source is loaded, false otherwise.

Returns

boolean

Defined in

src/source/source.ts:72


onAdd()?

optional onAdd(map: Map): void

This method is called when the source is added to the map.

Parameters

Parameter Type Description
map Map The map instance

Returns

void

Defined in

src/source/source.ts:82


onRemove()?

optional onRemove(map: Map): void

This method is called when the source is removed from the map.

Parameters

Parameter Type Description
map Map The map instance

Returns

void

Defined in

src/source/source.ts:87


prepare()?

optional prepare(): void

Allows to execute a prepare step before the source is used.

Returns

void

Defined in

src/source/source.ts:118


serialize()

serialize(): any

Returns

any

A plain (stringifiable) JS object representing the current state of the source. Creating a source using the returned object as the options should result in a Source that is equivalent to this one.

Defined in

src/source/source.ts:114


unloadTile()?

optional unloadTile(tile: Tile): Promise<void>

Allows to unload a tile.

Parameters

Parameter Type Description
tile Tile The tile to unload

Returns

Promise<void>

Defined in

src/source/source.ts:108
