Add Bookmarks plugins

[Aya Ashraf]

Hello, 

i'm using mapstore2 for my project but i need to add bookmarks feature to the app, users can add bookmark of a certain view and save it. 
how can i achieve this?
i have already created the sample plugins in the documentation, but i want it to be consistent with the original mapstore ..

Hi Aya,

if you only need to bookmar the current view (center and zoom), we have something similar in the Share plugin:

The "Add bbox param to sharing link" creates a link with the current view of the opened map What you probably need is a way to save this link with a bookmark name and then save / restore the user bookmarks.

Is this describing what you are looking for?

Thank you fro the fast reply.

actually i'm trying to have map preview like the one in the print modal beside each bookmark .
this generated bbox link is good , i was thinking of saving the view object to the store and move the map to it by actions .

how can i get the map preview dialog ? the code is a little bit complicated to me

I think this is a good approach. The zoomToPoint action can be used to zoom to a specific point and zoom (https://github.com/geosolutions-it/MapStore2/blob/6e94af4f788214e07f618f999c9ec2b8cbc3db5d/web/client/actions/map.js#L44). You have to save those from the current state when creating the bookmark, and invoke the action with the saved info later.

The mappreview is indeed complicated, but at the end is just another map component with some interactions blocked and a different size.

To create something similar for your bookmarks you could save together with the center and zoom some info about the layers you want to show in the thumbnail map. You have two options: save also info from the layers state, or just use a static list of layers for the thumbnail (e.g. OSM).

That said, it's not trivial, so if you are not able to do it yourself I suggest you to evaluate our commercial support.
