custom marker icon with react-leaflet

arnaudambro picture arnaudambro · Dec 9, 2017 · Viewed 20.8k times · Source

I tried everything I found on the web, Stackoverflow and Github, and I still can't make it.

I want to make a custom marker with a custom icon, but with my code below I always got an error : 'TypeError: options.icon.createIcon is not a function'

Here is my code (no error on the paths to folders, everything is in src/js or src/img)

Icon.js

import L from 'leaflet';

const iconPerson = L.Icon.extend({
  options: {
    iconUrl: require('../img/marker-pin-person.svg'),
    iconRetinaUrl: require('../img/marker-pin-person.svg'),
    iconAnchor: null,
    popupAnchor: null,
    shadowUrl: null,
    shadowSize: null,
    shadowAnchor: null,
    iconSize: new L.Point(60, 75),
    className: 'leaflet-div-icon'
  }
});

export { iconPerson };

MarkerPinPerson

import React from 'react';
import { Marker } from 'react-leaflet';
import {  iconPerson  } from './Icons';


export default class MarkerPinPerson extends React.Component {

  render() {

    return (
      <Marker
        position={this.props.markerPosition}
        icon={ iconPerson }
        >
      </Marker>
      );
  }
}

Really looking for your help !

I finally found the correct code for the Icon.js file :

import L from 'leaflet';

const iconPerson = new L.Icon({
    iconUrl: require('../img/marker-pin-person.svg'),
    iconRetinaUrl: require('../img/marker-pin-person.svg'),
    iconAnchor: null,
    popupAnchor: null,
    shadowUrl: null,
    shadowSize: null,
    shadowAnchor: null,
    iconSize: new L.Point(60, 75),
    className: 'leaflet-div-icon'
});

export { iconPerson };
