Make a gh-pages-page to select a provider about leaflet-providers HOT 9 CLOSED

This seems like overkill, making a minified version is probably more helpful, then having customizable script generator if we want to cut down on the size of it.

I still like this idea...

Screenshot of the POC I use locally:

Minified/generated versions still require me to download a file, put in in the right place and include it in my HTML.

We have a tidy 'repository' of tilelayer providers, with correct attributions and min/maxZoom. Why not make it available this way for this different use case?

oooh i see I had thought you wanted to have it build a file to download open up a pull request

Need to think about a way to include all layers without explicitly putting them in the file (easy) and without overflowing the not-so-huge screens though...

Just pushed https://github.com/leaflet-extras/leaflet-providers/tree/preview-page , please take a look.

The disctinction between baselayers/overlays is lost if we do not explicitly define them, we could add some key to the list of providers which indicates that it is an overlay...

from leaflet-providers.

overlay is only really important if your putting it into a layer control so the distinction isn't necessarily meaningful here

from leaflet-providers.

Not only then:
For example: reviewing the weather layers doesn't make much sense without a baselayer, so it would be nice if some basemap as reference is present.
But not really important...

from leaflet-providers.

true it would be nice to be able to select a couple layers, I meant that the code that is given doesn't change if it's an overlay or a base (As far as I know)

from leaflet-providers.

true, but I would fix that if we can decide on a way to distinguish between the two.

We could just make a list in the preview.html code referring to overlay layers and insert those in the control as overlay layers. Thus we do not have to add unnessecary stuff in the provider definition...
