Props

Only mapRef and mapboxApiAccessToken are required.

Name	Type	Default	Description
mapRef	Object		Ref for react-map-gl map component.
containerRef	Object		This can be used to place the geocoder outside of the map. The `position` prop is ignored if this is passed in. Example: https://codesandbox.io/s/v0m14q5rly
onViewportChange	Function	() => {}	Is passed updated viewport values after executing a query.
mapboxApiAccessToken	String		https://www.mapbox.com/
inputValue	String		Sets the search input value
origin	String	“https://api.mapbox.com”	Use to set a custom API origin.
zoom	Number	16	On geocoded result what zoom level should the map animate to when a `bbox` isn’t found in the response. If a `bbox` is found the map will fit to the `bbox`.
placeholder	String	“Search”	Override the default placeholder attribute value.
proximity	Object		A proximity argument: this is a geographical point given as an object with latitude and longitude properties. Search results closer to this point will be given higher priority.
trackProximity	Boolean	false	If true, the geocoder proximity will automatically update based on the map view.
collapsed	Boolean	false	If true, the geocoder control will collapse until hovered or in focus.
clearAndBlurOnEsc	Boolean	false	If true, the geocoder control will clear it’s contents and blur when user presses the escape key.
clearOnBlur	Boolean	false	If true, the geocoder control will clear its value when the input blurs.
bbox	Array		A bounding box argument: this is a bounding box given as an array in the format [minX, minY, maxX, maxY]. Search results will be limited to the bounding box.
types	String		A comma seperated list of types that filter results to match those specified. See https://www.mapbox.com/developers/api/geocoding/#filter-type for available types.
countries	String		A comma separated list of country codes to limit results to specified country or countries.
minLength	Number	2	Minimum number of characters to enter before results are shown.

Example

import 'mapbox-gl/dist/mapbox-gl.css'
import 'react-map-gl-geocoder/dist/mapbox-gl-geocoder.css'
import React, { useState, useRef, useCallback } from 'react'
import MapGL from 'react-map-gl'
import Geocoder from 'react-map-gl-geocoder'

// Ways to set Mapbox token: https://uber.github.io/react-map-gl/#/Documentation/getting-started/about-mapbox-tokens
const MAPBOX_TOKEN = 'REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_MAPBOX_TOKEN'

const Example = () => {
  const [viewport, setViewport] = useState({
    latitude: 37.7577,
    longitude: -122.4376,
    zoom: 8
  });
  const mapRef = useRef();
  const handleViewportChange = useCallback(
    (newViewport) => setViewport(newViewport),
    []
  );

  // if you are happy with Geocoder default settings, you can just use handleViewportChange directly
  const handleGeocoderViewportChange = useCallback(
    (newViewport) => {
      const geocoderDefaultOverrides = { transitionDuration: 1000 };

      return handleViewportChange({
        ...newViewport,
        ...geocoderDefaultOverrides
      });
    },
    [handleViewportChange]
  );

  return (
    <div style={{ height: "100vh" }}>
      <MapGL
        ref={mapRef}
        {...viewport}
        width="100%"
        height="100%"
        onViewportChange={handleViewportChange}
        mapboxApiAccessToken={MAPBOX_TOKEN}
      >
        <Geocoder
          mapRef={mapRef}
          onViewportChange={handleGeocoderViewportChange}
          mapboxApiAccessToken={MAPBOX_TOKEN}
          position="top-left"
        />
      </MapGL>
    </div>
  );
};

How native is React Native? | React Native vs Native App Development

If you are undertaking a mobile app development for your start-up or enterprise, you are likely wondering whether to use React Native. As a popular development framework, React Native helps you to develop near-native mobile apps. However, you are probably also wondering how close you can get to a native app by using React Native. How native is React Native?

In the article, we discuss the similarities between native mobile development and development using React Native. We also touch upon where they differ and how to bridge the gaps. Read on.

A brief introduction to React Native

Let’s briefly set the context first. We will briefly touch upon what React Native is and how it differs from earlier hybrid frameworks.

React Native is a popular JavaScript framework that Facebook has created. You can use this open-source framework to code natively rendering Android and iOS mobile apps. You can use it to develop web apps too.

Facebook has developed React Native based on React, its JavaScript library. The first release of React Native came in March 2015. At the time of writing this article, the latest stable release of React Native is 0.62.0, and it was released in March 2020.

Although relatively new, React Native has acquired a high degree of popularity. The “Stack Overflow Developer Survey 2019” report identifies it as the 8th most loved framework. Facebook, Walmart, and Bloomberg are some of the top companies that use React Native.

The popularity of React Native comes from its advantages. Some of its advantages are as follows:

Performance: It delivers optimal performance.
Cross-platform development: You can develop both Android and iOS apps with it. The reuse of code expedites development and reduces costs.
UI design: React Native enables you to design simple and responsive UI for your mobile app.
3rd party plugins: This framework supports 3rd party plugins.
Developer community: A vibrant community of developers support React Native.

Why React Native is fundamentally different from earlier hybrid frameworks

Are you wondering whether React Native is just another of those hybrid frameworks like Ionic or Cordova? It’s not! React Native is fundamentally different from these earlier hybrid frameworks.

React Native is very close to native. Consider the following aspects as described on the React Native website:

Access to many native platforms features: The primitives of React Native render to native platform UI. This means that your React Native app will use many native platform APIs as native apps would do.
Near-native user experience: React Native provides several native components, and these are platform agnostic.
The ease of accessing native APIs: React Native uses a declarative UI paradigm. This enables React Native to interact easily with native platform APIs since React Native wraps existing native code.

Due to these factors, React Native offers many more advantages compared to those earlier hybrid frameworks. We now review them.

How to display a Mapbox Map and Geocoder — Mapbox/React Tutorial Part 1

This multi-part React tutorial will be covering how to use Mapbox to:

display a map
search an address
add markers
display a popup when clicking on a marker

and even removing a marker.

We will be using create-react-app for our base React app and using the react-map-gl and react-mapbox-gl-geocoder libraries for our map and geocoder respectively. As an option, I will be using reactstrap for styling (in case you are unfamiliar, reactstrap is Bootstrap for React).

1. Create project and install dependencies

First, we will start by setting up our project.

npx create-react-app mapbox-project
cd mapbox-project
npm i react-map-gl react-mapbox-gl-geocoder bootstrap reactstrap
npm start

2. Mapbox key

In order to use Mapbox, you will need an API key. Go to https://www.mapbox.com/ and click on Sign In.

Under the signin form, click on Sign Up for Mapbox. Once you are done signing up, you should be taken to your dashboard. If you weren’t automatically given a token, you can create one by clicking Create a token.
