MapLibre GL Basemaps Control
The core interactions and styling of this control is based on Leaflet.Basemaps
A Maplibre GL Control for switching between basemaps. The control only supports raster sources.
This should work with Mapbox GL too. See
example.mapboxgl.html. You need to add a Mapbox access token to run this example.
Usage
import BasemapsControl from 'maplibre-gl-basemaps';
import 'maplibre-gl-basemaps/lib/basemaps.css';
map.addControl(new BasemapsControl(options));
To run the examples locally, install the dependencies and run npm run examples.
Go to localhost:8080 for Maplibre GL example and localhost:8080/example.mapbox.html for Mapbox GL example.
