Class: Cluster

ol/source/Cluster~Cluster


import Cluster from 'ol/source/Cluster';

Layer source to cluster vector data. Works out of the box with point geometries. For other geometry types, or if not all geometries should be considered for clustering, a custom geometryFunction can be defined.

If the instance is disposed without also disposing the underlying source setSource(null) has to be called to remove the listener reference from the wrapped source.

new Cluster(options)

Name Type Description
options

Cluster options.

Name Type Description
attributions module:ol/source/Source~AttributionLike

Attributions.

distance number (defaults to 20)

Distance in pixels within which features will be clustered together.

minDistance number (defaults to 0)

Minimum distance in pixels between clusters. Will be capped at the configured distance. By default no minimum distance is guaranteed. This config can be used to avoid overlapping icons. As a tradoff, the cluster feature's position will no longer be the center of all its features.

geometryFunction function

Function that takes an module:ol/Feature as argument and returns an module:ol/geom/Point as cluster calculation point for the feature. When a feature should not be considered for clustering, the function should return null. The default, which works when the underlying source contains point features only, is

function(feature) {
  return feature.getGeometry();
}

See module:ol/geom/Polygon~Polygon#getInteriorPoint for a way to get a cluster calculation point for polygons.

createCluster function

Function that takes the cluster's center module:ol/geom/Point and an array of module:ol/Feature included in this cluster. Must return a module:ol/Feature that will be used to render. Default implementation is:

function(point, features) {
  return new Feature({
    geometry: point,
    features: features
  });
}
source module:ol/source/Vector~VectorSource

Source.

wrapX boolean (defaults to true)

Whether to wrap the world horizontally.

Fires:

Extends

Methods

addFeature(feature) inherited

Add a single feature to the source. If you want to add a batch of features at once, call #addFeatures() instead. A feature will not be added to the source if feature with the same id is already there. The reason for this behavior is to avoid feature duplication when using bbox or tile loading strategies. Note: this also applies if an module:ol/Collection is used for features, meaning that if a feature with a duplicate id is added in the collection, it will be removed from it right away.

Name Type Description
feature module:ol/Feature~Feature.<Geometry>

Feature to add.

addFeatures(features) inherited

Add a batch of features to the source.

Name Type Description
features Array.<module:ol/Feature~Feature.<Geometry>>

Features to add.

Increases the revision counter and dispatches a 'change' event.

clear(opt_fast)

Remove all features from the source.

Name Type Description
fast boolean

Skip dispatching of module:ol/source/Vector.VectorSourceEvent#removefeature events.

dispatchEvent(event){boolean|undefined} inherited

Dispatches an event and calls all listeners listening for events of this type. The event parameter can either be a string or an Object with a type property.

Name Type Description
event module:ol/events/Event~BaseEvent | string

Event object.

Returns:
false if anyone called preventDefault on the event object or if any of the listeners returned false.

forEachFeature(callback){T|undefined} inherited

Iterate through all features on the source, calling the provided callback with each one. If the callback returns any "truthy" value, iteration will stop and the function will return the same value. Note: this function only iterate through the feature that have a defined geometry.

Name Type Description
callback function

Called with each feature on the source. Return a truthy value to stop iteration.

Returns:
The return value from the last call to the callback.

forEachFeatureInExtent(extent, callback){T|undefined} inherited

Iterate through all features whose bounding box intersects the provided extent (note that the feature's geometry may not intersect the extent), calling the callback with each feature. If the callback returns a "truthy" value, iteration will stop and the function will return the same value.

If you are interested in features whose geometry intersects an extent, call the #forEachFeatureIntersectingExtent() method instead.

When useSpatialIndex is set to false, this method will loop through all features, equivalent to #forEachFeature().

Name Type Description
extent module:ol/extent~Extent

Extent.

callback function

Called with each feature whose bounding box intersects the provided extent.

Returns:
The return value from the last call to the callback.

forEachFeatureIntersectingExtent(extent, callback){T|undefined} inherited

Iterate through all features whose geometry intersects the provided extent, calling the callback with each feature. If the callback returns a "truthy" value, iteration will stop and the function will return the same value.

If you only want to test for bounding box intersection, call the #forEachFeatureInExtent() method instead.

Name Type Description
extent module:ol/extent~Extent

Extent.

callback function

Called with each feature whose geometry intersects the provided extent.

Returns:
The return value from the last call to the callback.

Gets a value.

Value.

Get the attribution function for the source.

Returns:
Attribution function.

getAttributionsCollapsible(){boolean} inherited

Returns:
Attributions are collapsible.

getClosestFeatureToCoordinate(coordinate, opt_filter){module:ol/Feature~Feature.<Geometry>} inherited

Get the closest feature to the provided coordinate.

This method is not available when the source is configured with useSpatialIndex set to false.

Name Type Description
coordinate module:ol/coordinate~Coordinate

Coordinate.

filter function

Feature filter function. The filter function will receive one argument, the feature and it should return a boolean value. By default, no filtering is made.

Returns:
Closest feature.

getDistance(){number}

Get the distance in pixels between clusters.

Returns:
Distance.

Get the extent of the features currently in the source.

This method is not available when the source is configured with useSpatialIndex set to false.

Name Type Description
extent module:ol/extent~Extent

Destination extent. If provided, no new extent will be created. Instead, that extent's coordinates will be overwritten.

Returns:
Extent.

Get a feature by its identifier (the value returned by feature.getId()). Note that the index treats string and numeric identifiers as the same. So source.getFeatureById(2) will return a feature with id '2' or 2.

Name Type Description
id string | number

Feature identifier.

Returns:
The feature (or null if not found).

getFeatures(){Array.<module:ol/Feature~Feature.<Geometry>>} inherited
