• Add Ruler control to map

L.control.ruler().addTo(map);

• Escape button finishes measurement path and starts a new measurement. Second push to escape turns off the plugin.
• Double-click also finishes measurement path and starts a new measurement.
• It's possible to add other units. No need to specify any option value to use defaults.

var options = {
          position: 'topleft',
          lengthUnit: {
            factor: 0.539956803,    //  from km to nm
            display: 'Nautical Miles',
            decimal: 2
          }
        };
L.control.ruler(options).addTo(map);

Default Options

options: {
      position: 'topright',         // Leaflet control position option
      circleMarker: {               // Leaflet circle marker options for points used in this plugin
        color: 'red',
        radius: 2
      },
      lineStyle: {                  // Leaflet polyline options for lines used in this plugin
        color: 'red',
        dashArray: '1,6'
      },
      lengthUnit: {                 // You can use custom length units. Default unit is kilometers.
        display: 'km',              // This is the display value will be shown on the screen. Example: 'meters'
        decimal: 2,                 // Distance result will be fixed to this value. 
        factor: null,               // This value will be used to convert from kilometers. Example: 1000 (from kilometers to meters)  
        label: 'Distance:'           
      },
      angleUnit: {
        display: '°',           // This is the display value will be shown on the screen. Example: 'Gradian'
        decimal: 2,                 // Bearing result will be fixed to this value.
        factor: null,                // This option is required to customize angle unit. Specify solid angle value for angle unit. Example: 400 (for gradian).
        label: 'Bearing:'
      }
    }
