How do I get the latlng after the dragend event in leaflet?


I'm trying to update the lat/lng value of a marker after it is moved. The example provided uses a popup window to display the lat/lng.

I have a "dragend" event listener for the marker, but when I alert the value of e.latlng it returns undefined.

javascript:

function markerDrag(e){
    alert("You dragged to: " + e.latlng);
}

function initialize() {
    // Initialize the map
    var map = L.map('map').setView([38.487, -75.641], 8);
    L.tileLayer('http://{s}.tile.openstreetmap.org/{z}/{x}/{y}.png', {
        attribution: 'Map data &copy; <a href="http://openstreetmap.org">OpenStreetMap</a> contributors, <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/">CC-BY-SA</a>',
        maxZoom: 18
    }).addTo(map);

    // Event Handlers
    map.on('click', function(e){
        var marker = new L.Marker(e.latlng, {draggable:true});
        marker.bindPopup("<strong>"+e.latlng+"</strong>").addTo(map);

        marker.on('dragend', markerDrag);
    });
}


$(document).ready(initialize());

Solution

  • latlng value is not in e.latlng but in e.target._latlng . Use console.
