How do I add custom attribution to the default mapbox-gl attribution control?

Question

attributionControl: true

Does nothing. Where do I need to put the attribution in the mapbox-gl style so that it shows up in the control?

Answer 1

For those that still wondering about this. Mapbox have made a good workaround for this as described in Mapbox issue #1485.

I'm simply copying the solution provided by a collaborator of Mapbox:

map.addSource('attribution', {
type: 'geojson',
data: {
  type: 'FeatureCollection',
  features: []
},
attribution: 'Your custom attribution'
});
