Leaflet.draw retrieve layer type on draw:edited event

Question

I'm using the https://github.com/Leaflet/Leaflet.draw plugin and I'm trying to retrieve the layer type of an edited layer.

On the draw:created event, I have the layer and layerType, but on draw:edited (triggered when saving all edits) I get a list of layers that were edited.

The draw:created event

map.on('draw:created', function (e) {
    var type = e.layerType,
        layer = e.layer;

    if (type === 'marker') {
        // Do marker specific actions
    }

    // Do whatever else you need to. (save to db, add to map etc)
    map.addLayer(layer);
});

The draw:edited event

map.on('draw:edited', function (e) {
    var layers = e.layers;
    layers.eachLayer(function (layer) {
        //do stuff, but I can't check which type I'm working with
        // the layer parameter doesn't mention its type
    });
});

You could use instanceof (docs here).

map.on('draw:edited', function (e) {
    var layers = e.layers;
    layers.eachLayer(function (layer) {
        if (layer instanceof L.Marker){
            //Do marker specific actions here
        }
    });
});
