IconProvider

public class IconProvider

This provider creates icons from a given set of parameters for map content and constraints for icon dimensions for a particular map scheme. The icon creation currently does not rely on map data. Therefore, it works without online connection.

Note

This feature is in BETA state and thus there can be bugs and unexpected behavior. Related APIs may change for new releases without a deprecation process.
  • Initializes an icon provider instance.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public init(_ mapContext: MapContext)

    Parameters

    mapContext

    The map context instance which is obtained using [MapView.mapContext].

  • Creates an image displaying a road shield according to the given parameters.

    Note

    This feature is in BETA state and thus there can be bugs and unexpected behavior. Related APIs may change for new releases without a deprecation process.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public func createRoadShieldIcon(
        properties: RoadShieldIconProperties,
        mapScheme: MapScheme,
        assetType: IconProviderAssetType,
        widthConstraintInPixels: UInt32,
        heightConstraintInPixels: UInt32,
        callback: @escaping IconProviderCallback)

    Parameters

    properties

    The properties which determine the kind of road shield to be created.

    mapScheme

    The map scheme for which the road shield should be created.

    assetType

    The asset type for which the road shield should be created.

    widthConstraintInPixels

    The maximum width of the road shield in pixels. The value is capped to a maximum of 4096 pixels. The image will be created as large as possible within the width and height constraints while maintaining the aspect ratio. If set to 0, the width will be calculated based on the heightConstraintInPixels to preserve the aspect ratio.

    heightConstraintInPixels

    The maximum height of the road shield in pixels. The value is capped to a maximum of 4096 pixels. The image will be created as large as possible within the width and height constraints while maintaining the aspect ratio. If set to 0, the original image-asset’s height will be used.

    callback

    The callback which is used to return the created image along with a description of the icon based on the type of road and/or place it is used, or an error code.
