Change Base TileLayer in leaflet.dc.js

[David Saeger]

Anybody know how to change the base tile layer in leaflet.dc.js? The default OSM tilelayer is OK but there are other free tilesets that would work better in my project.

Hi David,

I agree, the default tiles are sort of meh, and I've been wondering how to get better ones.

Looks like you can use the .tiles() method to change the tile constructor. The default uses the tile source URL https://{s}.tile.openstreetmap.org/{z}/{x}/{y}.png but you just create a function which specifies another one.

Default function

var _tiles=function(map) {
L.tileLayer('https://{s}.tile.openstreetmap.org/{z}/{x}/{y}.png', {
attribution: '&copy; <a href="https://openstreetmap.org/copyright">OpenStreetMap</a> contributors'
}).addTo(map);
};

Cheers,
Gordon
