MGLSymbolStyleLayer

 
@interface MGLSymbolStyleLayer : MGLVectorStyleLayer

An MGLSymbolStyleLayer is a style layer that renders icon and text labels at points or along lines on the map.

Use a symbol style layer to configure the visual appearance of labels for features in vector tiles loaded by an MGLVectorSource object or MGLShape or MGLFeature instances in an MGLShapeSource object.

You can access an existing symbol style layer using the -[MGLStyle layerWithIdentifier:] method if you know its identifier; otherwise, find it using the MGLStyle.layers property. You can also create a new symbol style layer and add it to the style using a method such as -[MGLStyle addLayer:].

Example

let layer = MGLSymbolStyleLayer(identifier: coffeeshops, source: pois)
layer.sourceLayerIdentifier = pois
layer.iconImageName = MGLStyleValue(rawValue: coffee)
layer.iconScale = MGLStyleValue(rawValue: 0.5)
layer.text = MGLStyleValue(rawValue: {name})
layer.textTranslation = MGLStyleValue(rawValue: NSValue(cgVector: CGVector(dx: 10, dy: 0)))
layer.textJustification = MGLStyleValue(rawValue: NSValue(mglTextJustification: .left))
layer.textAnchor = MGLStyleValue(rawValue: NSValue(mglTextAnchor: .left))
layer.predicate = NSPredicate(format: %K == %@, venue-type, coffee)
mapView.style?.addLayer(layer)
