Geolocation plugin and Google maps marker clustering

[Anneliese Dehner]

I'm trying to use the MarkerCluster library with the Geolocation plugin. Specifically, I would like to add clusters to the public browse view of the map (views/public/map/browse.php).

The problem is I can't figure out where to add the clusterer so I can reference the markers:

var markerCluster = new MarkerClusterer(map, markers);

I've tried lots of things including appending it to $js at the end of helpers/GoogleMap.php, but nothing I try works.

What am I missing? I appreciate any suggestions you have.

Thanks,

Anneliese

Ah ha! Got it.

In case anyone else out there wants to try this. 

Add the markercluster script.

In Geolocation/views/shared/javascripts/map.js, modify fitMarkers: function in OmekaMap.prototype to look like the code below (additions are highlighted)

fitMarkers: function () {

        if (this.markers.length == 1) {

            this.map.setCenter(this.markers[0].getPosition());

            

        } else {

            this.map.fitBounds(this.markerBounds);

            var markeroptions = {

            imagePath: "https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/markerclusterer/m"

        };

            var markerCluster = new MarkerClusterer(this.map, this.markers, markeroptions);

        }

    }
