'How to Filter markers on Mapbox based on geojson information?

So, I want to try to create a nav/filter based on mapbox, which will filter pubs based on their type, either Independent or a Pub Chain. I added the pub type in the geojson, but how do I create a filter based on the information in the geojson?

I tried creating a filter based on this link https://docs.mapbox.com/mapbox-gl-js/example/filter-markers/ but it's more based on icons...


let filters = document.getElementById("filters");

let map = new mapboxgl.Map({
  container: 'map',
  style: 'mapbox://styles/jlsr10/ck029molz05p11cock35wlyy9',
  center: [-0.133677, 51.526631],
  zoom: 12
});

let geojson = {

      }
    ]
  };


// add markers to map
geojson.features.forEach(function(marker) {
// create a DOM element for the marker
    let el = document.createElement('div');
    el.className = 'marker';

// add marker to map
  new mapboxgl.Marker(el)
  .setLngLat(marker.geometry.coordinates)
  .setPopup(new mapboxgl.Popup({offset: 25})
  .setHTML('<h3>' + marker.properties.name + '</h3>' + '<h4>Opening Times</h4>' +'<p>'+ marker.properties.times +'</p>'))
  .addTo(map);
});```



I would like the filter to filter Independent pubs, and pub chain pubs for the user.


Solution 1:[1]

Instead of adding markers, then removing and re-adding markers on filter change, consider adding a layer and updating it's source.

Add a geojson layer:


map.addLayer({
  id: "places",
  type: "symbol",
  source: {
    type: "geojson",
    data: geojson
  },
  layout: {
    "icon-image": "bar-15",
    "icon-size": 1.25,
    "icon-allow-overlap": true,
  }
});

And then filter and update source:


const filterElem = document.getElementById('pubTypeFilter');

filterElem.onchange = () => {
  const pubType = filterElem.value;
  if (pubType) {
    const newGeoJSON = {...geojson };
    newGeoJSON.features = geojson.features.filter(feature => feature.properties.PubType === pubType);
    map.getSource('places').setData(newGeoJSON);
  }
};

Here's a codepen that does that: https://codepen.io/manishraj/full/BaBrJwr

You can use map.setFilter

map.setFilter('places', ['==', 'PubType', 'Independent']);
