@terrestris/legend-util v0.1.0

legend-util

A helper class for rendering legends.

Installation

npm i @terrestris/legend-util

Usage

In order to render a legend, you construct a legend renderer like this:

      const renderer = new LegendRenderer({
        maxColumnWidth: 300,
        maxColumnHeight: 300,
        overflow: 'auto',
        styles: [style],
        size: [600, 300]
      });
      renderer.render(someElement);

The styles property can contain a list of geostyler style objects that each correspond to one legend rendered.

There are currently three modes. If constructed as above, the renderer will render multiple columns if needed, with a maximum width and height as specified. The columns will break on any legend element.

If the overflow property is set to 'group', the columns will break on legend boundaries only, leaving the rest of the column empty if starting on a new legend.

If the maxColumnHeight property is not set, the renderer will render just one column with all the legends, thus ignoring the size parameter for the height.
