Leaflet.markercluster
=====================
Provides Beautiful Animated Marker Clustering functionality for Leaflet
## Using the plugin
See the included examples for usage.
The [realworld example](http://danzel.github.com/Leaflet.markercluster/example/marker-clustering-realworld.388.html) is a good place to start, it utilises the MarkerCluster.Default class to provide all of the default functionality.
Or check out the [custom example](http://danzel.github.com/Leaflet.markercluster/example/marker-clustering-custom.html) for how to customise the behaviour and appearance of the clusterer
### Usage
Create a new MarkerClusterGroup, add your markers to it, then add it to the map
```javascript
var markers = new L.MarkerClusterGroup();
markers.addLayer(new L.Marker(getRandomLatLng(map)));
... Add more layers ...
map.addLayer(markers);
```
### Defaults
As a safe default you can use the included MarkerCluster.Default.(css/js) to provide default behaviour and appearance of the clusters.
Include the .Default files (or use the prebuilt version) and create a MarkerClusterGroup as follows:
```javascript
var markers = new L.MarkerClusterGroup();
L.MarkerClusterDefault.bindEvents(map, markers);
... Add markers to the MarkerClusterGroup ...
map.addLayer(markers);
```
### Customising the Clustered Markers
As an option to MarkerClusterGroup you can provide your own function for creating the Icon for the clustered markers.
The default implementation changes color at bounds of 10 and 100, but more advanced uses may require customising this.
You do not need to include the .Default files if you go this way.
```javascript
var markers = new L.MarkerClusterGroup({ options: {
iconCreateFunction: function(childCount) {
return new L.DivIcon({ html: '<b>' + childCount + '</b>' });
}
}});
```
Check out the [custom example](http://danzel.github.com/Leaflet.markercluster/example/marker-clustering-custom.html) for an example of this.
### Events
If you register for click, mouseover, etc events just related to Markers in the cluster.
To recieve events for clusters listen to 'cluster' + 'eventIWant', ex: 'clusterclick', 'clustermouseover'.
Set your callback up as follows to handle both cases:
```javascript
markers.on('click', function (a) {
console.log('marker ' + a.layer);
});
markers.on('clusterclick', function (a) {
console.log('cluster ' + a.layer.getAllChildMarkers().length);
});
```
### Getting the bounds of a cluster
When you recieve an event from a cluster you can query it for the bounds.
See [example/marker-clustering-convexhull.html](http://danzel.github.com/Leaflet.markercluster/example/marker-clustering-convexhull.html) for a working example.
```javascript
markers.on('clusterclick', function (a) {
map.addLayer(new L.Polygon(a.layer.getConvexHull()));
});
```
### Zooming to the bounds of a cluster
When you recieve an event from a cluster you can zoom to its bounds in one easy step.
See [marker-clustering-zoomtobounds.html](http://danzel.github.com/Leaflet.markercluster/example/marker-clustering-zoomtobounds.html) for a working example.
```javascript
markers.on('clusterclick', function (a) {
a.layer.zoomToBounds();
});
```
### Adding and removing Markers
addLayer and removeLayer are supported and they should work for most uses.
### Handling LOTS of markers
The Clusterer can handle 10000 or even 50000 markers (in chrome). IE9 has some issues with 50000.
[realworld 10000 example](http://danzel.github.com/Leaflet.markercluster/example/marker-clustering-realworld.10000.html)
[realworld 50000 example](http://danzel.github.com/Leaflet.markercluster/example/marker-clustering-realworld.50000.html)
Performance optimizations could be done so these are handled more gracefully (Running the initial clustering over multiple JS calls rather than locking the browser for a long time)
