nuxt-maptiler-gl

Nuxt module for vue3-maptiler-gl — interactive maps with MapTiler SDK.

Features

• Auto-imports all 10 map components (MapTiler, GeoJsonSource, FillLayer, etc.)
• Auto-imports all 38 composables (useFlyTo, useMapEventListener, etc.)
• Auto-imports CSS — vue3-maptiler-gl/dist/style-with-maptiler.css, which is the MapTiler SDK's own stylesheet plus the library's container rules
• SSR-safe — components register client-only, @maptiler/sdk is kept out of the server bundle
• Zero configuration required

vue3-maptiler-gl and @maptiler/sdk are dependencies of this module, so installing it is enough — there is nothing else to add to your app.

API key: optional. Any http(s) style URL is passed through untouched, so a keyless style works with no MapTiler account. You need a key only for maptiler:// styles, Cloud style ids such as streets-v2, or api.maptiler.com URLs. Set it from a client plugin with useMapTilerConfig({ apiKey }) — it is auto-imported like every other composable.

Installation

Using Bun (Recommended)

bun add nuxt-maptiler-gl

Using npm

npm install nuxt-maptiler-gl

Using Yarn

yarn add nuxt-maptiler-gl

Using pnpm

pnpm add nuxt-maptiler-gl

Setup

Add to nuxt.config.ts. The config key is maptiler, not the module name:

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  modules: ['nuxt-maptiler-gl'],

  // Optional configuration
  maptiler: {
    css: true, // auto-import CSS (default: true)
    prefix: '', // composable prefix (default: none)
  },
});

Usage

Components and composables are auto-imported. Wrap map in <ClientOnly>:

<template>
  <ClientOnly>
    <MapTiler :options="mapOptions" style="height: 500px">
      <GeoJsonSource :data="geoData">
        <FillLayer :style="fillStyle" />
        <CircleLayer :style="circleStyle" />
      </GeoJsonSource>
      <Marker :lnglat="[0, 0]" :draggable="true" />
    </MapTiler>
  </ClientOnly>
</template>

<script setup>
const mapOptions = ref({
  style: 'https://demotiles.maplibre.org/style.json',
  center: [0, 0],
  zoom: 2,
});

const geoData = ref({
  type: 'FeatureCollection',
  features: [],
});

const fillStyle = ref({ 'fill-color': '#088', 'fill-opacity': 0.8 });
const circleStyle = ref({ 'circle-radius': 6, 'circle-color': '#007cbf' });
</script>

The SDK brings its own controls. MapOptions.navigationControl and MapOptions.geolocateControl both default to true, where MapLibre adds none, so a bare <MapTiler> already shows zoom, compass and locate buttons. Pass navigationControl: false / geolocateControl: false in :options when you place your own.

Auto-imported Components

| Component | Description | | ------------------- | ------------------- | | MapTiler | Main map container | | GeoJsonSource | GeoJSON data source | | FillLayer | Fill polygons | | CircleLayer | Circle points | | LineLayer | Line features | | SymbolLayer | Icons and text | | Marker | HTML markers | | Popup | Popup windows | | Image | Map images | | GeolocateControls | Geolocation |

Auto-imported Composables

All 38 composables from vue3-maptiler-gl are auto-imported — useCreateMapTiler, useMapTiler, useFlyTo, useEaseTo, useJumpTo, useMapEventListener, useCreateGeoJsonSource and the rest. Set prefix to namespace them: with prefix: 'map' they are imported as mapUseFlyTo, mapUseMapEventListener, and so on.

The full reference lives at vue-maptiler-gl.pages.dev/api/composables.

Releasing

This module depends on vue3-maptiler-gl by version range, and both are published from the same repository. Release them in this order, from the repository root:

1. bun run publish:vue — publishes the root package.
2. bun run publish:nuxt — refuses to run until the vue3-maptiler-gl range in nuxt/package.json resolves on npm, then refreshes nuxt/bun.lock, builds, and publishes.

Neither script picks a version. Set version in the manifest yourself before releasing, so the bump reflects what actually changed — this module tracks vue3-maptiler-gl by major, so a new major there is a new major here.

Commit the refreshed nuxt/bun.lock afterwards.
