]
});

// update
let mySource = map.getSource('some id');
mySource.setCoordinates([
[-76.54335737228394, 39.18579907229748],

Add a video

Note that when rendered as a raster layer, the layer's raster-fade-duration property will cause the video to fade in. This happens when playback is started, paused and resumed, or when the video's coordinates are updated. To avoid this behavior, set the layer's raster-fade-duration property to 0.

    Returns VideoSource

  • Adds a listener to a specified event type.

    Parameters

    • type: string

      The event type to add a listen for.

    • listener: Listener

      The function to be called when the event is fired. The listener function is called with the data object passed to fire, extended with target and type properties.

    Returns this

  • Adds a listener that will be called only once to a specified event type.

    The listener will be called first time the event fires after the listener is registered.

    Parameters

    • type: string

      The event type to listen for.

    • Optional listener: Listener

      The function to be called when the event is fired the first time.

    Parameters

    • seconds: number

    Returns void

  • Sets the image's coordinates and re-renders the map.

    Parameters

    • coordinates: Coordinates

      Four geographical coordinates, represented as arrays of longitude and latitude numbers, which define the corners of the image. The coordinates start at the top left corner of the image and proceed in clockwise order. They do not have to represent a rectangle.

    Returns this

  • Updates the image URL and, optionally, the coordinates. To avoid having the image flash after changing, set the raster-fade-duration paint property on the raster layer to 0.
