<h2 id="popup">L.popup</h2>
<p>Used to open popups in certain places of the map. Use <a href="#map-openpopup">Map#openPopup</a> to open popups while making sure that only one popup is open at one time (recommended for usability), or use <a href="#map-addlayer">Map#addLayer</a> to open as many as you want.</p>

<pre><code class="javascript">marker.bindPopup(popupContent).openPopup();</code></pre>
<p>Path overlays like polylines also have a <code>bindPopup</code> method. Here's a more complicated way to open a popup on a map:</p>

<h3>Example</h3>
<pre><code class="javascript">map.on('click', function(e) {
alert(e.latlng);

<!-- <h3>TileEvent</h3> -->
<h2 id="class">L.Class</h2>
<p><code>L.Class</code> powers the OOP facilities of Leaflet and is used to create almost all of the Leaflet classes documented here.</p>
<p>In addition to implementing a simple classical inheritance model, it introduces several special properties for convenient code organization &mdash; <code>options</code>, <code>includes</code> and <code>statics</code>.</p>
<pre><code>var MyClass = L.Class.extend({
initialize: function (greeter) {
this.greeter = greeter;
// class constructor
},
greet: function (name) {
alert(this.greeter + ', ' + name)
}
});
// create instance of MyClass, passing "Hello" to the constructor
var a = new MyClass("Hello");
// call greet method, alerting "Hello, World"
a.greet("World");
</code></pre>
<h3>Inheritance</h3>
<p>You use <code>L.Class.extend</code> to define new classes, but you can use the same method on any class to inherit from it:</p>
<pre><code>var MyChildClass = MyClass.extend({
// ... new properties and methods
});</code></pre>
<p>This will create a class that inherits all methods and properties of the parent class (through a proper prototype chain), adding or overriding the ones you pass to <code>extend</code>. It will also properly react to <code>instanceof</code>:</p>
<pre><code>var a = new MyChildClass();
a instanceof MyChildClass; // true
a instanceof MyClass; // true
</code></pre>
<p>You can call parent methods (including constructor) from corresponding child ones (as you do with <code>super</code> calls in other languages) by accessing parent class prototype and using JavaScript's <code>call</code> or <code>apply</code>:</p>
<pre><code>var MyChildClass = MyClass.extend({
initialize: function () {
MyClass.prototype.initialize.call("Yo");
},
greet: function (name) {
MyClass.prototype.greet.call(this, 'bro ' + name + '!');
}
});
var a = new MyChildClass();
a.greet('Jason'); // alerts "Yo, bro Jason!"</code></pre>
<h3 id="class-options">Options</h3>
<p><code>options</code> is a special property that unlike other objects that you pass to <code>extend</code> will be merged with the parent one instead of overriding it completely, which makes managing configuration of objects and default values convenient:</p>
<pre><code>var MyClass = L.Class.extend({
options: {
myOption1: 'foo',
myOption2: 'bar'
}
});
var MyChildClass = L.Class.extend({
options: {
myOption1: 'baz',
myOption3: 5
}
});
var a = new MyChildClass();
a.options.myOption1; // 'baz'
a.options.myOption2; // 'bar'
a.options.myOption3; // 5</code></pre>
<p>There's also <code>L.Util.setOptions</code>, a method for conveniently merging options passed to constructor with the defauls defines in the class:</p>
<pre><code>var MyClass = L.Class.extend({
options: {
foo: 'bar',
bla: 5
},
initialize: function (options) {
L.Util.setOptions(this, options);
...
}
});
var a = new MyClass({bla: 10});
a.options; // {foo: 'bar', bla: 10}</code></pre>
<h3>Includes</h3>
<p><code>includes</code> is a special class property that merges all specified objects into the class (such objects are called mixins). A good example of this is <code>L.Mixin.Events</code> that <a href="#events">event-related methods</a> like <code>on</code>, <code>off</code> and <code>fire</code> to the class.</p>
<pre><code> var MyMixin = {
foo: function () { ... },
bar: 5
};
var MyClass = L.Class.extend({
includes: MyMixin
});
var a = new MyClass();
a.foo();</code></pre>
<p>You can also do such includes in runtime with the <code>include</code> method:</p>
<pre><code><b>MyClass.include</b>(MyMixin);</code></pre>
<h3>Statics</h3>
<p><code>statics</code> is just a convenience property that injects specified object properties as the static properties of the class, useful for defining constants:</p>
<pre><code>var MyClass = L.Class.extend({
statics: {
FOO: 'bar',
BLA: 5
}
});
MyClass.FOO; // 'bar'</code></pre>
<h3>Class Factories</h3>
<p>You may have noticed that you can create Leaflet class instances in two ways — using the <code>new</code> keyword, or using lowercase factory method:</p>
<pre><code>new L.Map('map');
L.map('map');</code></pre>
<p>The second way is implemented very easily, and you can do this for your own classes:</p>
<pre><code>L.map = function (id, options) {
return new L.Map(id, options);
};</code></pre>
<h3>Constructor Hooks</h3>
<p>If you're a plugin developer, you often need to add additional initialization code to existing classes (e.g. editing hooks for <code>L.Polyline</code>). Leaflet comes with a way to do it easily using the <code>addInitHook</code> method:</p>
<pre><code>MyClass.addInitHook(function () {
// ... do something in constructor additionally
// e.g. add event listeners, set custom properties etc.
});</code></pre>
<p>You can also use the following shortcut when you just need to make one additional method call:</p>
<pre><code>MyClass.addInitHook('methodName', arg1, arg2, &hellip;);</code></pre>
<h2 id="browser">L.Browser</h2>
<p>A namespace with properties for browser/feature detection used by Leaflet internally.</p>
<pre><code>if (L.Browser.ie6) {
alert('Upgrade your browser, dude!');
}</code></pre>

<h3>Implementing Custom Layers</h3>
<p>The most important things know about when implementing custom layers are Map <a href="#map-viewreset">viewreset</a> event and <a href="#map-latlngtolayerpoint">latLngToLayerPoint</a> method. <code>viewreset</code> is fired when the map needs to reposition its layers (e.g. on zoom), and <code>latLngToLayerPoint</code> is used to get coordinates for the layer's new position.</p>
<p>Another event often used in layer implementations is <a href="#map-moveend">moveend</a> which fires after any movement of the map (panning, zooming, etc.).</p>
<p>Another thing to note is that you'll usually need to add <code>leaflet-zoom-hide</code> class to the DOM elements you create for the layer so that it hides during zoom animation. Implementing zoom animation for custom layers is a complex topic and will be documented separately in future, but meanwhile you can take a look at how it's done for Leaflet layers (e.g. <code>ImageOverlay</code>) in the source.</p>
<h3>Custom Layer Example</h3>
<p>Here's how a custom layer implementation usually looks:</p>
<pre><code>var MyCustomLayer = L.Class.extend({
initialize: function (latlng) {
// save position of the layer or any options from the constructor
this._latlng = latlng;
},
onAdd: function (map) {
this._map = map;
// create a DOM element and put it into one of the map panes
this._el = L.DomUtil.create('div', 'my-custom-layer leaflet-zoom-hide');
map.getPanes().overlayPane.appendChild(this._el);
// add a viewreset event listener for updating layer's position, do the latter
map.on('viewreset', this._reset, this);
this._reset();
},
onRemove: function (map) {
// remove layer's DOM elements and listeners
map.getPanes().overlayPane.removeChild(this._el);
map.off('viewreset', this._reset, this);
},
_reset: function () {
// update layer's position
var pos = this._map.latLngToLayerPoint(this._latlng);
L.DomUtil.setPosition(this._el, pos);
}
});
map.addLayer(new MyCustomLayer(latlng));
</code></pre>
<h2 id="icontrol">IControl</h2>
<p>Represents a UI element in one of the corners of the map. Implemented by <a href="#control-zoom">zoom</a>, <a href="#control-attribution">attribution</a>, <a href="#control-scale">scale</a> and <a href="#control-layers">layers</a> controls.</p>
<h3>Methods</h3>
<p>Every control in Leaflet should extend from <a href="#control">Control</a> class and additionally have the following methods:</p>
<table>
<tr>
<th>Method</th>
<th>Returns</th>
<th>Description</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code><b>onAdd</b>(
<nobr>&lt;<a href="#map">Map</a>&gt; <i>map</i> )</nobr>
</code></td>
<td><code>HTMLElement</code></td>
<td>Should contain code that creates all the neccessary DOM elements for the control, adds listeners on relevant map events, and returns the element containing the control. Called on <code>map.addControl(control)</code> or <code>control.addTo(map)</code>.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code><b>onRemove</b>(
<nobr>&lt;<a href="#map">Map</a>&gt; <i>map</i> )</nobr>
</code></td>
<td>-</td>
<td>Optional, should contain all clean up code (e.g. removes control's event listeners). Called on <code>map.removeControl(control)</code> or <code>control.removeFrom(map)</code>. The control's DOM container is removed automatically.</td>
</tr>
</table>
<h3>Custom Control Example</h3>
<pre><code>var MyControl = L.Control.extend({
options: {
position: 'topright'
},
onAdd: function (map) {
// create the control container with a particular class name
var container = L.DomUtil.create('div', 'my-custom-control');
// ... initialize other DOM elements, add listeners, etc.
return container;
}
});
map.addControl(new MyControl());
</code></pre>
<p>If specify your own constructor for the control, you'll also probably want to process options properly:</p>
<pre><code>var MyControl = L.Control.extend({
initialize: function (foo, options) {
// ...
L.Util.setOptions(this, options);
},
// ...
});</code></pre>
<p>This will allow you to pass options like <code>position</code> when creating the control instances:</p>
<pre><code>map.addControl(new MyControl('bar', {position: 'bottomleft'}));</code></pre>

<h2 id="global">Global Switches</h2>
<p>Global switches are created for rare cases and generally make Leaflet to not detect a particular browser feature even if it's there. You need to set the switch as a global variable to <code><span class="literal">true</span></code> <em>before</em> including Leaflet on the page, like this:</p>
<pre><code>&lt;script&gt;L_PREFER_CANVAS = true;&lt;/script&gt;
&lt;script src="leaflet.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;</code></pre>
<table>
<tr>
<th>Switch</th>
<th>Description</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code><b>L_PREFER_CANVAS</b></code></td>
<td>Forces Leaflet to use the Canvas back-end (if available) for vector layers instead of SVG. This can increase performance considerably in some cases (e.g. many thousands of circle markers on the map).</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code><b>L_NO_TOUCH</b></code></td>
<td>Forces Leaflet to not use touch events even if it detects them.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code><b>L_DISABLE_3D</b></code></td>
<td>Forces Leaflet to not use hardware-accelerated CSS 3D transforms for positioning (which may cause glitches in some rare environments) even if they're supported.</td>
</tr>
</table>
<h2 id="noconflict">L.noConflict()</h2>
<p>This method restores the L global variale to the original value it had before Leaflet inclusion, and returns the real Leaflet namespace so you can put it elsewhere, like this:<p>
<pre><code>// L points to some other library
...
// you include Leaflet, it replaces the L variable to Leaflet namespace
var Leaflet = L.noConflict();
// now L points to that other library again, and you can use Leaflet.Map etc.</code></pre>
<h2 id="version">L.version</h2>
<p>A constant that represents the Leaflet version in use.<p>
<pre><code>L.version // returns "0.5" (or whatever version is currently in use)</code></pre>
