## Issues Encountered and Solutions

### 'require' is not defined

In tailwind.config.js on `plugins: [require("flowbite/plugin")],`

**Solution**

ignore eslint

```
// eslint-disable-next-line no-undef
plugins: [require("flowbite/plugin")],
```

### Flex col auto wrap child element

**Solution**

Change the parent layout to `lg:inline-block` instead of `lg:flex-col`

### Overflow scroll does not work when flex row

**Solution**

Add missing width: 100vw; `w-screen` to the flex container

### Flex nowrap does not work when flex row

**Solution**

Add missing height `h-full` to the flex element

### Default scroll looks ugly

**Solution**

https://www.npmjs.com/package/tailwind-scrollbar

### react-leaflet does not show correctly on the page

**Solution**

https://leafletjs.com/examples/quick-start/
does not work

https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-leaflet?activeTab=dependencies
does not work

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40365440/react-leaflet-map-not-correctly-displayed

https://leafletjs.com/examples/quick-start/
it works

### Add link and script and width and height

Add the below codes into **index.html**

```

```

```

```

Add below codes into **src\App.css**

```
.leaflet-container {
width: 100wh;
height: 100vh;
}
```

### Default map is on the top of every component

**Solution**

https://wordpress.org/support/topic/leaflet-map-z-index-and-css/

Add the style `z-index: 0 !important;` to the leaflet container class `.leaflet-container` in **src\App.css**

Change the order of components, make leaflet container component to be the first render component. For example, in **src\App.tsx**, where `` is the component that includes leaflet container:

```
import "./App.css";
import MapLayout from "./MapLayout";
import Navigation from "./Navigation";
import ResultContainer from "./ResultContainer";

function App() {
return (





);
}

export default App;
```

In **src\MapLayout.tsx**

```
import React from "react";
import CurrentLocationButton from "./CurrentLocationButton";
import { MapContainer, Marker, Popup, TileLayer } from "react-leaflet";

export default function MapLayout() {
return (






A pretty CSS3 popup.
Easily customizable.






);
}
```

### Error: `Argument of type 'LatLng' is not assignable to parameter of type 'SetStateAction'. Type 'LatLng' provides no match for the signature '(prevState: null): null'.`

**Solution**

Change `useState(null);` to `useState(null);`

## Tasks

### Get the user's current location and mark it on the map

https://react-leaflet.js.org/docs/example-events/

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66500181/how-to-locate-react-leaflet-map-to-users-current-position-and-get-the-borders-f

Add onClick event to the custom go to current location button `onClick={() => setGoToCurrentPosition(true)}`, to change the state `const [goToCurrentPosition, setGoToCurrentPosition] = useState(false);`

Monitor the state change in the `LocationMarker` component. And add the condition in the `useEffect`, only go to the current location when the state variable `goToCurrent` is true.

Full codes:

```
import { LatLng } from "leaflet";
import { useEffect, useState } from "react";
import {
MapContainer,
Marker,
Popup,
TileLayer,
useMap,
} from "react-leaflet";
import CurrentLocationIcon from "./CurrentLocationIcon";

type Props = {
goToCurrentPosition: boolean;
};

function LocationMarker({ goToCurrentPosition }: Props) {
const [position, setPosition] = useState(null);

const [goToCurrent, setGoToCurrent] = useState(false);

const map = useMap();

useEffect(() => {
setGoToCurrent(goToCurrentPosition);
}, [goToCurrentPosition]);

useEffect(() => {
if (goToCurrent) {
map.locate().on("locationfound", function (e) {
setPosition(e.latlng);
map.flyTo(e.latlng, map.getZoom());
});
}
}, [goToCurrent]);

return position === null ? null : (

You are here

);
}

export default function MapLayout() {
const [goToCurrentPosition, setGoToCurrentPosition] = useState(false);

return (






A pretty CSS3 popup.
Easily customizable.


setGoToCurrentPosition(true)}
>



);
}
```

### List 10 restaurants near the current location

https://opensource.com/article/18/5/how-build-your-first-gis-app

https://www.npmjs.com/package/query-overpass

https://codesandbox.io/s/b7olo?file=/src/service/overpass.ts

### Try out overpass api on Postman

#### Url

https://overpass-api.de/api/interpreter

#### Method

POST

#### Header

`Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8`

#### Request body

Query Castles

```
[out:json];(way[historic=castle](around:10000, 50.0874654,14.4212535);
relation[historic=castle](around:10000, 50.0874654,14.4212535););
out body;>;out skel qt;
```

Query schools

```
[out:json];
(node[amenity=school](around:10000, 50.0874654,14.4212535););
out body;>;out skel qt;
```

### Save the current position for sharable use

Use zustand

### Show restaurants on the map

Change the icons
https://codesandbox.io/s/react-leaflet-icon-material-mx1iu?file=/src/index.js

### Get distance information from the current position in km

https://www.geodatasource.com/developers/javascript

### Change the corresponding restaurant card style after clicking the marker

Add `eventHandlers` in `Marker`

```
...

{
onClickMarker(e);
},
}}
>
{text}

...

```

In the handler function, set the state variable using the selected position from the event object

```
...

const [selectedPosition, setSelectedPosition] = useState(
null
);

...

function onClickCustomMapMarker(event: LeafletMouseEvent): void {
setSelectedPosition({ lat: event.latlng.lat, lon: event.latlng.lng });
}

...

```

Render the selected card component if the position matches the position of the selected marker

```
...

export default function PlaceContainer({
currentPosition,
places,
selectedPosition,
}: Props) {
if (places.length > 0) {
return (

{places.map((place) =>
selectedPosition !== null &&
selectedPosition.lat === place.lat &&
selectedPosition.lon === place.lon ? (

) : (

)
)}

);
} else {
return null;
}
}
```
