leaflet (development version)

  • Color palette improvements. All color palette functions now support all viridisLite palettes (“magma”, “inferno”, “plasma”, “viridis”, “cividis”, “rocket”, “mako”, and “turbo”) (@jack-davison, #924).

  • Updated vignettes to replace sp/raster usage with sf/terra and their corresponding examples. (@jack-davison, #928)

  • Updated vignettes to replace sp/raster usage with sf/`{terra} and their corresponding examples. (@jack-davison, #928)

  • addProviderTiles() will now error if the chosen provider does not match any currently loaded provider (by default, those in providers). This behaviour can be toggled off by setting the new check argument to FALSE (@jack-davison, #929)

leaflet 2.2.2

CRAN release: 2024-03-26

leaflet 2.2.1

CRAN release: 2023-11-13

leaflet 2.2.0

CRAN release: 2023-08-31

Features

  • Added support for SpatRaster and SpatVector objects from the terra package. (#728)

  • leaflet() now uses jQuery 3.6.0 provided via the {jquerylib}package. As a result of this change, the HTML dependencies for leaflet() are included in the dependencies item of the htmlwidget object it returns. (#817, #821)

Bug fixes and improvements

leaflet 2.1.2

CRAN release: 2023-03-10

Bug fixes and improvements

  • Removed S3 warnings found on R devel (#848)

leaflet 2.1.1

CRAN release: 2022-03-23

Bug fixes and improvements

  • The default marker icon for addMarkers no longer worked, due to the CDN we were relying on apparently being retired. Fixed by pointing to a new CDN. (#782)

  • New behavior from tile.openstreetmap.org caused addTiles default tileset to break when viewed under non-https protocol on recent versions of Chrome. Fixed by always using the https protocol to connect to openstreetmap. (#786)

leaflet 2.1.0

CRAN release: 2022-02-16

Bug fixes and improvements

  • Enable JS function literals (wrapped in htmlwidgets::JS()) to be included in arguments to methods invoked on leafletProxy objects. (JS function literals could already be included with methods invoked on leaflet objects, so this change just brings leafletProxy to parity.) (#420)

  • Add missing CSS rule to show <img> in right-pane and left-pane (rstudio/rmarkdown#1949, #770)

  • Allow for hidden but not suspended leaflet maps to queue calls (such as add raster images) until they are rendered. If a new leaflet map is created, all pending calls are removed. (#771)

CRAN release: 2021-01-07

Features

  • Updated proj4.js to 2.6.2

Breaking changes

Bug fixes and improvements

  • Fixed broken mouse events after using leaflet-search from leaflet.extras within shiny applications (#563)
  • Use leaflet namespace on providers in addMiniMap to make the function accessible in other packages. Fixes r-tmap/tmap#231. (#568)
  • Require scales >= 1.0.0 to avoid exact color matching issues (#578)

leaflet 2.0.1

CRAN release: 2018-06-04

Bug fixes and improvements

  • Default marker icon locations will now use unpkg.com instead of the leaflet cdn when using https or file protocols. (#544)

leaflet 2.0.0

CRAN release: 2018-04-20

Breaking changes

Bug fixes and features

  • Added more providers for addProviderTiles(): “OpenStreetMap.CH”, “OpenInfraMap”, “OpenInfraMap.Power”, “OpenInfraMap.Telecom”, “OpenInfraMap.Petroleum”, “OpenInfraMap.Water”, “OpenPtMap”, “OpenRailwayMap”, “OpenFireMap”, “SafeCast”. (4aea447)

  • L.multiPolyline was absorbed into L.polyline, which accepts multiple an array of polyline information. https://web.archive.org/web/20220702182250/https://leafletjs.com/reference-1.3.4.html#polyline. (#515)

  • Add groupOptions function. Currently the only option is letting you specify zoom levels at which a group should be visible.

  • Fix bug with accessing columns in formulas when the data source is a Crosstalk SharedData object wrapping a spatial data frame or sf object.

  • Fix strange wrapping behavior for legend, especially common for Chrome when browser zoom level is not 100%.

  • Added support for drag events (#405)

  • Ensure type safety of .indexOf(stamp) (#396)

  • validateCoords() warns on invalid polygon data (#393)

  • Added method argument to addRasterImage() to enable nearest neighbor interpolation when projecting categorical rasters (#462)

  • Added an 'auto' method for addRasterImage(). Projected factor results are coerced into factors. (9accc7e)

  • Added data parameter to remaining addXXX() methods, including addLegend. (f273edd, #491, #485)

  • Added preferCanvas argument to leafletOptions() (#521)

  • Added support for Crosstalk (https://rstudio.github.io/crosstalk/).

  • Added option to highlight polygons, polylines, circles, and rectangles on hover (use highlightOptions parameter).

  • Added a way for the Map instance to be instantiated via a factory.

leaflet 1.0.2
