This library provides a request transforming function enabling the consumption of MapboxGL Styles in MapLibreGL.

By default Mapbox styles are referenced by, and include others to mapbox URLs such as mapbox://styles/mapbox/satellite-streets-v11, however MapLibreGL, since version 2, does not know how to handle these references. This library parsers the mapbox URL and converts into a valid http urls usable by MapLibreGL.

Also compatible with react-map-gl.

npm install maplibregl-mapbox-request-transformer --save

import { isMapboxURL, transformMapboxUrl } from 'maplibregl-mapbox-request-transformer'

const mapboxKey = 'pk.123'

const transformRequest = (url: string, resourceType: string) => {
  if (isMapboxURL(url)) {
    return transformMapboxUrl(url, resourceType, mapboxKey)
  }
  
  // Do any other transforms you want
  return {url}
}

var map = new maplibregl.Map({
  container: 'map',
  center: [-122.420679, 37.772537],
  zoom: 13,
  style: 'mapbox://styles/mapbox/satellite-streets-v11',
  transformRequest
});

When upgrading from MapLibre v1 to >= v2 or react-map-gl, and using this transformer, be advised that Mapbox bills tile requests using their Vector Tiles API requests. A standard Mapbox GL JS application is billed using the Map Loads API, which includes unlimited Vector Tiles API requests (see pricing docs). This billing difference could make hosting an often-visited map more expensive. As of Feb 2023 Mapbox offers 200,000 monthly tile requests on their free tier (see their pricing page for current details).
