Unable to set a worldview (to change displayed borders) #897

Closed dancherb closed 4 years ago

dancherb commented 4 years ago

Hello - I'm struggling from the documentation to see how to set a worldview for the map. I'm using a Mapbox map from a style URL, derived from one of the basic style templates.

Ideally, I'd like to change the country boundaries and labels based on whether a user is in India or the US. As a fallback, I'd be happy to set a fixed worldview (in this case IN) - e.g. from Mapbox Studio for the style itself.

This article suggests a "setFilter" method is available, though it's not clear if/how this is exposed via the package: https://blog.mapbox.com/dynamically-change-disputed-national-borders-14c820cae923

Thanks!

:thinking: @dancherb, this is rather a question than an issue
please use our gitter or stackoverflow for this.

🤔 @dancherb, this is rather a question than an issue please use our gitter or stackoverflow for this.

Hello robot. I'll check out Gitter but I'm a bit weirded out that you can only log in via GitHub (will this also bother any organizations I'm affiliated with?) and GitLab (why does this need read/write access to my projects?)

Would still appreciate some input here, can consider this post as an issue with the documentation for worldview and similar filters even if it's not re-opened.

@dancherb We have the ability to set filter for layers created in RNMBGL. So if you add those layers yourself it should work.

https://docs.mapbox.com/help/tutorials/get-started-mapbox-boundaries/

We don't have a way to refer to existing layers at the moment AFAIK, in future that could work like this:

<LineLayer id="admin-0-boundary" existing filter={[...]} />
