Usage

var beforeMap = new maplibregl.Map({
container: "before",
style: "https://demotiles.maplibre.org/style.json",
center: [7.221275, 50.326111],
zoom: 5,
});

var afterMap = new maplibregl.Map({
container: "after",
style:
    "https://vectortiles.geo.admin.ch/styles/ch.swisstopo.leichte-basiskarte.vt/style.json",
center: [7.221275, 50.326111],
zoom: 5,
});

// A selector or reference to HTML element
var container = '#comparison-container';

var map = new maplibregl.Compare(beforeMap, afterMap, container, {
  mousemove: true, // Optional. Set to true to enable swiping during cursor movement.
  orientation: 'vertical' // Optional. Sets the orientation of swiper to horizontal or vertical, defaults to vertical
});

Methods

compare = new maplibregl.Compare(beforeMap, afterMap, container, {
  mousemove: true, // Optional. Set to true to enable swiping during cursor movement.
  orientation: 'vertical' // Optional. Sets the orientation of swiper to horizontal or vertical, defaults to vertical
});

// Get Current position - this will return the slider's current position, in pixels
compare.currentPosition;

// Set Position - this will set the slider at the specified (x) number of pixels from the left-edge or top-edge of viewport based on swiper orientation
compare.setSlider(x);

//Listen to slider movement - and return current position on each slideend
compare.on('slideend', (e) => {
  console.log(e.currentPosition);
});

//Remove - this will remove the compare control from the DOM and stop synchronizing the two maps.
compare.remove();
