Playground

React Azure Maps have a fully documented Playground Package that implements a lot of features from Azure Maps Code Samples. If you implement new usage of the map and want to be contributor just create a PR.

Library Implementation Details

For typescript integration and core functionalities, this library uses the newest version of Azure Maps Control. The library is implemented under the hood on Contexts and uses all benefits of new react features, like new context API, hooks, etc. Across the whole library, there are three main references that depend on the basic Azure Maps API

MapReference which is stored and implemented in

AzureMapsProvider

DataSourceReference which is stored and implemented in

AzureMapDataSourceProvider

LayerReference which is stored and implemented in

AzureMapLayerProvider

If you want to directly make some changes in the above refs just use one of these contexts and feel free to use it any way you want. The library implements a lot of ready to use components like AzureMapFeature, AzureMapHTMLMarker, AzureMapPopup

Basic Usage

import React from 'react'
import {AzureMap, AzureMapsProvider, IAzureMapOptions} from 'react-azure-maps'
import {AuthenticationType} from 'azure-maps-control'

const option: IAzureMapOptions = {
    authOptions: {
        authType: AuthenticationType.subscriptionKey,
        subscriptionKey: '' // Your subscription key
    },
}

const DefaultMap: React.FC = () => (
  <AzureMapsProvider>
    <div style={{ height: '300px' }}>
      <AzureMap options={option} />
    </div>
  </AzureMapsProvider>
);

export default DefaultMap
