Leaflet.contextmenu
A context menu for Leaflet. See the demo.
Now supporting Leaflet 1.0
Usage
The context menu is implemented as a map interaction handler. To use the plugin include the script and enable using the map contextmenu
option.
var map = L.map('map', {
contextmenu: true,
contextmenuWidth: 140,
contextmenuItems: [{
text: 'Show coordinates',
callback: showCoordinates
}, {
text: 'Center map here',
callback: centerMap
}, '-', {
text: 'Zoom in',
icon: 'images/zoom-in.png',
callback: zoomIn
}, {
text: 'Zoom out',
icon: 'images/zoom-out.png',
callback: zoomOut
}]
});
function showCoordinates (e) {
alert(e.latlng);
}
function centerMap (e) {
map.panTo(e.latlng);
}
function zoomIn (e) {
map.zoomIn();
}
function zoomOut (e) {
map.zoomOut();
}
The context menu mixin allows markers and vector features to extend the map context menu with their own menu items. In addition to the menu item options available for the map context menu marker's also accept an index
option that specifies where the menu item should be inserted relative to the existing map menu items.
L.marker(ll, {
contextmenu: true,
contextmenuItems: [{
text: 'Marker item',
index: 0
}, {
separator: true,
index: 1
}]
}).addTo(map);

Mixin Methods
The following methods are available on supported layer types when using the context menu mixin.
bindContextMenu(contextMenuOptions)
Binds a context menu to the feature the method is called on.
unbindContextMenu()
Unbinds the context menu previously bound to the feature with the bindContextMenu() method.
GeoJSON Data
To use the context menu with GeoJSON data it's necessary to use one of the GeoJSON layer's pointToLayer or onEachFeature methods.
Point Data
var jsonLayer = L.geoJson(jsonData, {
pointToLayer: function (data, latLng) {
var marker = new L.Marker(latLng, {
contextmenu: true,
contextmenuItems: [{
text: 'Marker item'
}]
});
return marker;
}
}).addTo(map);
Other Types
var jsonLayer = L.geoJson(jsonData, {
onEachFeature: function (feature, layer) {
layer.bindContextMenu({
contextmenu: true,
contextmenuItems: [{
text: 'Marker item'
}]
});
}
}).addTo(map);
