Supporting public methods from label plugin

[nmccready]

The Leaflet.label plugin seems to be supported when creating markers in the directive or even when the label message gets changed. So far so good. Now I wonder if/how it is possible to access the label with its public methods like showLabel() or hideLabel().

This does not seem to work, as once the marker is created, I do not have access to the 'real' L.Marker instance.

Do you have any advice on this?

Thanks.

Hi fbrandel,

Have you tried using the leafletData service to access the map object?

See related comment here: https://github.com/tombatossals/angular-leaflet-directive/issues/184#issuecomment-28553932

Inject the service into your controller, then try something like:

leafletData.getMap().then(function(map) {
    map.Marker.showLabel();
});
