##### Add a color legend to a map

When a color palette function is used in a map (e.g. colorNumeric), a color legend can be automatically derived from the palette function. You can also manually specify the colors and labels for the legend.

##### Usage
addLegend(map, position = c("topright", "bottomright", "bottomleft", "topleft"),
pal, values, na.label = "NA", bins = 7, colors, opacity = 0.5, labels,
labFormat = labelFormat(), title = NULL, className = "info legend", layerId = NULL)labelFormat(prefix = "", suffix = "", between = " – ", digits = 3, big.mark = ",",
transform = identity)
##### Arguments
map
a map widget object created from leaflet()
position
the position of the legend
pal
the color palette function, generated from colorNumeric(), colorBin(), colorQuantile(), or colorFactor()
values
the values used to generate colors from the palette function
na.label
the legend label for NAs in values
bins
an approximate number of tick-marks on the color gradient for the colorNumeric palette if it is of length one; you can also provide a numeric vector as the pre-defined breaks (equally spaced)
colors
a vector of (HTML) colors to be used in the legend if pal is not provided
opacity
the opacity of colors
labels
a vector of text labels in the legend corresponding to colors
labFormat
a function to format the labels derived from pal and values (see Details below to know what labelFormat() returns by default; you can either use the helper function labelFormat(), or write your own funct
title
the legend title
className
extra CSS classes to append to the control, space separated
layerId
the ID of the legend; subsequent calls to addLegend or addControl with the same layerId will replace this legend. The ID can also be used with removeControl.
prefix
a prefix of legend labels
suffix
a suffix of legend labels
between
a separator between x[i] and x[i + 1] in legend labels (by default, it is a dash)
digits
the number of digits of numeric values in labels
big.mark
the thousand separator
transform
a function to transform the label value
##### Details

The labFormat argument is a function that takes the argument type = c("numeric", "bin", "quantile", "factor"), plus, arguments for different types of color palettes. For the colorNumeric() palette, labFormat takes a single argument, which is the breaks of the numeric vector, and returns a character vector of the same length. For colorBin(), labFormat also takes a vector of breaks of length n but should return a character vector of length n - 1, with the i-th element representing the interval c(x[i], x[i + 1]). For colorQuantile, labFormat takes two arguments, the quantiles and the associated probabilities (each of length n), and should return a character vector of length n - 1 (similar to the colorBin() palette). For colorFactor(), labFormat takes one argument, the unique values of the factor, and should return a character vector of the same length.

By default, labFormat is basically format(scientific = FALSE, big.mark = ',') for the numeric palette, as.character() for the factor palette, and a function to return labels of the form x[i] - x[i + 1] for bin and quantile palettes (in the case of quantile palettes, x is the probabilities instead of the values of breaks).

##### Examples
library(leaflet)
# a manual legend
position = 'bottomright',
colors = rgb(t(col2rgb(palette())) / 255),
labels = palette(), opacity = 1,
title = 'An Obvious Legend'
)

# an automatic legend derived from the color palette
df = local({
n = 300; x = rnorm(n); y = rnorm(n)
z = sqrt(x^2 + y^2); z[sample(n, 10)] = NA
data.frame(x, y, z)
})
pal = colorNumeric('OrRd', df$z) leaflet(df) %>% addCircleMarkers(~x, ~y, color = ~pal(z)) %>% addLegend(pal = pal, values = ~z) # format legend labels df = data.frame(x = rnorm(100), y = rexp(100, 2), z = runif(100)) pal = colorBin('PuOr', df$z, bins = c(0, .1, .4, .9, 1))
leaflet(df) %>%
addCircleMarkers(~x, ~y, color = ~pal(z)) %>%
addLegend(pal = pal, values = ~z)

leaflet(df) %>%
addCircleMarkers(~x, ~y, color = ~pal(z)) %>%
addLegend(pal = pal, values = ~z, labFormat = labelFormat(
prefix = '(', suffix = ')%', between = ', ',
transform = function(x) 100 * x
))
