get_paint_options: Get paint options for a specific layer type

Description

This function returns a list of paint options based on the layer type and any additional options provided.

Usage

get_paint_options(layer_type, options = list())

Value

A list of paint options suitable for the specified layer type.

Arguments

layer_type

A string indicating the type of layer (e.g., "fill", "circle", "line").

options

A list of additional options to customize the paint properties. See MapLibre docs for full options.

• colour: The color to use for the layer. Default is "grey". color is also accepted as an alias for colour.

• opacity: The opacity to use for the layer. Default is 1 (fully opaque).

• line_width: The width of lines in line layers or the outline width for circle layers. Default is 1.

• line_dash: The dash pattern for line layers. Default is no dash (solid line). You can provide a vector of numbers to specify the dash pattern (e.g., c(2, 4) for a pattern of 2 units on, 4 units off).

• outline_colour: The color to use for the outline of circle or fill layers. Default is the same as colour. outline_color is also accepted as an alias for outline_colour.

• outline_opacity: The opacity to use for the outline of circle or fill layers. Default is the same as opacity. You can also provide any other paint options found in the MapLibre docs for the specific layer type, and they will be included in the returned list.

Examples

get_paint_options("line", list(colour = "blue", opacity = 0.8, line_width = 2))

get_paint_options("circle", list(colour = "red", circle_radius = 10, outline_colour = "black"))

# Use with get_column for data-driven styling:
get_paint_options("fill", list(colour = get_column("color"), opacity = get_column("opacity")))

get_paint_options("fill", list(
   colour = get_column_group("group", c("A" = "green", "B" = "blue"))
))

get_paint_options("fill", list(
   opacity = get_column_steps("percent", c(25, 75), c("red", "orange", "yellow"))
))

# Provide options outside of the defaults
get_paint_options("circle", list("circle-blur" = 0.5))
