Expressions

The value for any layout property, paint property, or filter may be specified as an expression. An expression defines a formula for computing the value of the property using the operators described below. The set of expression operators provided by MapLibre GL includes:

• Mathematical operators for performing arithmetic and other operations on numeric values
• Logical operators for manipulating boolean values and making conditional decisions
• String operators for manipulating strings
• Data operators, providing access to the properties of source features
• Camera operators, providing access to the parameters defining the current map view

Expressions are represented as JSON arrays. The first element of an expression array is a string naming the expression operator, e.g. "*" or "case". Elements that follow (if any) are the arguments to the expression. Each argument is either a literal value (a string, number, boolean, or null), or another expression array.

[expression_name, argument_0, argument_1, ...]

Data expressions

A data expression is any expression that access feature data – that is, any expression that uses one of the data operators: get, has, id, geometry-type, properties, or feature-state. Data expressions allow a feature’s properties or state to determine its appearance. They can be used to differentiate features within the same layer and to create data visualizations.

{
    "circle-color": [
        "rgb",
        // red is higher when feature.properties.temperature is higher
        ["get", "temperature"],
        // green is always zero
        0,
        // blue is higher when feature.properties.temperature is lower
        ["-", 100, ["get", "temperature"]]
    ]
}

This example uses the get operator to get the temperature value of each feature. That value is used to compute arguments to the rgb operator, defining a color in terms of its red, green, and blue components.

Data expressions are allowed as the value of the filter property, and as values for most paint and layout properties. However, some paint and layout properties do not yet support data expressions. The level of support is indicated by the “data-driven styling” row of the “SDK Support” table for each property. Data expressions with the feature-state operator are allowed only on paint properties.

Camera expressions

A camera expression is any expression that uses the zoom operator. Such expressions allow the appearance of a layer to change with the map’s zoom level. Camera expressions can be used to create the appearance of depth and to control data density.

{
    "circle-radius": [
        "interpolate", ["linear"], ["zoom"],
        // zoom is 5 (or less) -> circle radius will be 1px
        5, 1,
        // zoom is 10 (or greater) -> circle radius will be 5px
        10, 5
    ]
}

This example uses the interpolate operator to define a linear relationship between zoom level and circle size using a set of input-output pairs. In this case, the expression indicates that the circle radius should be 1 pixel when the zoom level is 5 or below, and 5 pixels when the zoom is 10 or above. Between the two zoom levels, the circle radius will be linearly interpolated between 1 and 5 pixels

Camera expressions are allowed anywhere an expression may be used. When a camera expression used as the value of a layout or paint property, it must be in one of the following forms:

[ "interpolate", interpolation, ["zoom"], ... ]

Or:

[ "step", ["zoom"], ... ]

Or:

[
    "let",
    ... variable bindings...,
    [ "interpolate", interpolation, ["zoom"], ... ]
]

Or:

[
    "let",
    ... variable bindings...,
    [ "step", ["zoom"], ... ]
]

That is, in layout or paint properties, ["zoom"] may appear only as the input to an outer interpolate or step expression, or such an expression within a [let]../expressions/index.md/#let) expression.

There is an important difference between layout and paint properties in the timing of camera expression evaluation. Paint property camera expressions are re-evaluated whenever the zoom level changes, even fractionally. For example, a paint property camera expression will be re-evaluated continuously as the map moves between zoom levels 4.1 and 4.6. A layout property camera expression is evaluated only at integer zoom levels. It will not be re-evaluated as the zoom changes from 4.1 to 4.6 – only if it goes above 5 or below 4.

Composition

A single expression may use a mix of data operators, camera operators, and other operators. Such composite expressions allows a layer’s appearance to be determined by a combination of the zoom level and individual feature properties.

{
    "circle-radius": [
        "interpolate", ["linear"], ["zoom"],
        // when zoom is 0, set each feature's circle radius to the value of its "rating" property
        0, ["get", "rating"],
        // when zoom is 10, set each feature's circle radius to four times the value of its "rating" property
        10, ["*", 4, ["get", "rating"]]
    ]
}

An expression that uses both data and camera operators is considered both a data expression and a camera expression, and must adhere to the restrictions described above for both.

Type system

The input arguments to expressions, and their result values, use the same set of types as the rest of the style specification: boolean, string, number, color, and arrays of these types. Furthermore, expressions are type safe: each use of an expression has a known result type and required argument types, and the SDKs verify that the result type of an expression is appropriate for the context in which it is used. For example, the result type of an expression in the filter property must be boolean, and the arguments to the + operator must be numbers.

When working with feature data, the type of a feature property value is typically not known ahead of time by the SDK. To preserve type safety, when evaluating a data expression, the SDK will check that the property value is appropriate for the context. For example, if you use the expression ["get", "feature-color"] for the circle-color property, the SDK will verify that the feature-color value of each feature is a string identifying a valid color. If this check fails, an error will be indicated in an SDK-specific way (typically a log message), and the default value for the property will be used instead.

In most cases, this verification will occur automatically wherever it is needed. However, in certain situations, the SDK may be unable to automatically determine the expected result type of a data expression from surrounding context. For example, it is not clear whether the expression ["<", ["get", "a"], ["get", "b"]] is attempting to compare strings or numbers. In situations like this, you can use one of the type assertion expression operators to indicate the expected type of a data expression: ["<", ["number", ["get", "a"]], ["number", ["get", "b"]]]. A type assertion checks that the feature data matches the expected type of the data expression. If this check fails, it produces an error and causes the whole expression to fall back to the default value for the property being defined. The assertion operators are array, boolean, number, and string.

Expressions perform only one kind of implicit type conversion: a data expression used in a context where a color is expected will convert a string representation of a color to a color value. In all other cases, if you want to convert between types, you must use one of the type conversion expression operators: to-boolean, to-number, to-string, or to-color. For example, if you have a feature property that stores numeric values in string format, and you want to use those values as numbers rather than strings, you can use an expression such as ["to-number", ["get", "property-name"]].

If an expression accepts an array argument and the user supplies an array literal, that array must be wrapped in a literal expression (see the examples below). When GL-JS encounters an array in a style-spec property value, it will assume that the array is an expression and try to parse it; the library has no way to distinguish between an expression which failed validation and an array literal unless the developer makes this distinction explicit with the literal operator. The literal operator is not necessary if the array is returned from a sub-expression, e.g. ["in", 1, ["get", "myArrayProp"]].

// will throw an error
{
    "circle-color": ["in", 1, [1, 2, 3]]
}

// will work as expected
{
    "circle-color": ["in", 1, ["literal", [1, 2, 3]]]
}

Expression reference

Types

The expressions in this section are for testing for and converting between different data types like strings, numbers, and boolean values.

Often, such tests and conversions are unnecessary, but they may be necessary in some expressions where the type of a certain sub-expression is ambiguous. They can also be useful in cases where your feature data has inconsistent types; for example, you could use to-number to make sure that values like "1.5" (instead of 1.5) are treated as numeric values.

array

Asserts that the input is an array (optionally with a specific item type and length). If, when the input expression is evaluated, it is not of the asserted type, then this assertion will cause the whole expression to be aborted.

Syntax

["array", value]: array

["array", type: "string" | "number" | "boolean", value]: array<type>

["array",
    type: "string" | "number" | "boolean",
    N: number (literal),
    value
]: array<type, N>

boolean

Asserts that the input value is a boolean. If multiple values are provided, each one is evaluated in order until a boolean is obtained. If none of the inputs are booleans, the expression is an error.

Syntax

["boolean", value]: boolean

["boolean", value, fallback: value, fallback: value, ...]: boolean

collator

Returns a collator for use in locale-dependent comparison operations. The case-sensitive and diacritic-sensitive options default to false. The locale argument specifies the IETF language tag of the locale to use. If none is provided, the default locale is used. If the requested locale is not available, the collator will use a system-defined fallback locale. Use resolved-locale to test the results of locale fallback behavior.

Syntax

["collator",
    { "case-sensitive": boolean, "diacritic-sensitive": boolean, "locale": string }
]: collator

format

Returns a formatted string for displaying mixed-format text in the text-field property. The input may contain a string literal or expression, including an 'image' expression. Strings may be followed by a style override object that supports the following properties:

• "text-font": Overrides the font stack specified by the root layout property.
• "text-color": Overrides the color specified by the root paint property.
• "font-scale": Applies a scaling factor on text-size as specified by the root layout property.

Syntax

["format",
    input_1: string | image, options_1: { "font-scale": number, "text-font": array<string>, "text-color": color },
    ...,
    input_n: string | image, options_n: { "font-scale": number, "text-font": array<string>, "text-color": color }
]: formatted

image

Returns an image type for use in icon-image, *-pattern entries and as a section in the format expression. If set, the image argument will check that the requested image exists in the style and will return either the resolved image name or null, depending on whether or not the image is currently in the style. This validation process is synchronous and requires the image to have been added to the style before requesting it in the image argument.

Syntax

["image", value]: image

literal

Provides a literal array or object value.

Syntax

["literal", [...] (JSON array literal)]: array<T, N>

["literal", {...} (JSON object literal)]: object

number

Asserts that the input value is a number. If multiple values are provided, each one is evaluated in order until a number is obtained. If none of the inputs are numbers, the expression is an error.

Syntax

["number", value]: number

["number", value, fallback: value, fallback: value, ...]: number

number-format

Converts the input number into a string representation using the providing formatting rules. If set, the locale argument specifies the locale to use, as a BCP 47 language tag. If set, the currency argument specifies an ISO 4217 code to use for currency-style formatting. If set, the min-fraction-digits and max-fraction-digits arguments specify the minimum and maximum number of fractional digits to include.

Syntax

["number-format",
    input: number,
    options: { "locale": string, "currency": string, "min-fraction-digits": number, "max-fraction-digits": number }
]: string

object

Asserts that the input value is an object. If multiple values are provided, each one is evaluated in order until an object is obtained. If none of the inputs are objects, the expression is an error.

Syntax

["object", value]: object

["object", value, fallback: value, fallback: value, ...]: object

string

Asserts that the input value is a string. If multiple values are provided, each one is evaluated in order until a string is obtained. If none of the inputs are strings, the expression is an error.

Syntax

["string", value]: string

["string", value, fallback: value, fallback: value, ...]: string

to-boolean

Converts the input value to a boolean. The result is false when then input is an empty string, 0, false, null, or NaN; otherwise it is true.

Syntax

["to-boolean", value]: boolean

to-color

Converts the input value to a color. If multiple values are provided, each one is evaluated in order until the first successful conversion is obtained. If none of the inputs can be converted, the expression is an error.

Syntax

["to-color", value, fallback: value, fallback: value, ...]: color

to-number

Converts the input value to a number, if possible. If the input is null or false, the result is 0. If the input is true, the result is 1. If the input is a string, it is converted to a number as specified by the “ToNumber Applied to the String Type” algorithm of the ECMAScript Language Specification. If multiple values are provided, each one is evaluated in order until the first successful conversion is obtained. If none of the inputs can be converted, the expression is an error.

Syntax

["to-number", value, fallback: value, fallback: value, ...]: number

to-string

Converts the input value to a string. If the input is null, the result is "". If the input is a boolean, the result is "true" or "false". If the input is a number, it is converted to a string as specified by the “NumberToString” algorithm of the ECMAScript Language Specification. If the input is a color, it is converted to a string of the form "rgba(r,g,b,a)", where r, g, and b are numerals ranging from 0 to 255, and a ranges from 0 to 1. Otherwise, the input is converted to a string in the format specified by the JSON.stringify function of the ECMAScript Language Specification.

Syntax

["to-string", value]: string

typeof

feature-state

Retrieves a property value from the current feature’s state. Returns null if the requested property is not present on the feature’s state. A feature’s state is not part of the GeoJSON or vector tile data, and must be set programmatically on each feature. Features are identified by their id attribute, which must be an integer or a string that can be cast to an integer. Note that [“feature-state”] can only be used with paint properties that support data-driven styling.

    input: InputType (array or string),
    index: number,
    index: number
]: OutputType (ItemType or string)

Decision

The expressions in this section can be used to add conditional logic to your styles. For example, the 'case' expression provides “if/then/else” logic, and 'match' allows you to map specific values of an input expression to different output expressions.

!

Logical negation. Returns true if the input is false, and false if the input is true.

Syntax

["!", boolean]: boolean

!=

Returns true if the input values are not equal, false otherwise. The comparison is strictly typed: values of different runtime types are always considered unequal. Cases where the types are known to be different at parse time are considered invalid and will produce a parse error. Accepts an optional collator argument to control locale-dependent string comparisons.

Syntax

["!=", value, value]: boolean

["!=", value, value, collator]: boolean

<

Returns true if the first input is strictly less than the second, false otherwise. The arguments are required to be either both strings or both numbers; if during evaluation they are not, expression evaluation produces an error. Cases where this constraint is known not to hold at parse time are considered in valid and will produce a parse error. Accepts an optional collator argument to control locale-dependent string comparisons.

Syntax

["<", value, value]: boolean

["<", value, value, collator]: boolean

<=

Returns true if the first input is less than or equal to the second, false otherwise. The arguments are required to be either both strings or both numbers; if during evaluation they are not, expression evaluation produces an error.

Accepts an optional collator argument to control locale-dependent string comparisons.

Syntax

["<=", value, value]: boolean

["<=", value, value, collator]: boolean

==

Syntax

["==", value, value]: boolean

["==", value, value, collator]: boolean

>

Returns true if the first input is strictly greater than the second, false otherwise.

Accepts an optional collator argument to control locale-dependent string comparisons.

Syntax

[">", value, value]: boolean

[">", value, value, collator]: boolean

>=

Returns true if the first input is greater than or equal to the second, false otherwise. The arguments are required to be either both strings or both numbers; if during evaluation they are not, expression evaluation produces an error. Cases where this constraint is known not to hold at parse time are considered in valid and will produce a parse error. Accepts an optional collator argument to control locale-dependent string comparisons.

Syntax

[">=", value, value]: boolean

[">=", value, value, collator]: boolean

all

Syntax

["all", boolean, boolean]: boolean

["all", boolean, boolean, ...]: boolean

any

Returns true if any of the inputs are true, false otherwise. The inputs are evaluated in order, and evaluation is short-circuiting: once an input expression evaluates to true, the result is true and no further input expressions are evaluated.

]: OutputType

coalesce

Evaluates each expression in turn until the first non-null value is obtained, and returns that value.

Syntax

["coalesce", OutputType, OutputType, ...]: OutputType

match

Selects the output whose label value matches the input value, or the fallback value if no match is found. The input can be any expression (e.g. ["get", "building_type"]). Each label must be either:

• a single literal value; or
• an array of literal values, whose values must be all strings or all numbers (e.g. [100, 101] or ["c", "b"]). The input matches if any of the values in the array matches, similar to the "in" operator. Each label must be unique. If the input type does not match the type of the labels, the result will be the fallback value.

Syntax

["match",
    input: InputType (number or string),
    label: InputType | [InputType, InputType, ...], output: OutputType,
    label: InputType | [InputType, InputType, ...], output: OutputType,
    ...,

• Point: Returns false if a point is on the boundary or falls outside the boundary.
• LineString: Returns false if any part of a line falls outside the boundary, the line intersects the boundary, or a line’s endpoint is on the boundary.

Syntax

Interpolation types:

• ["linear"]: Interpolates linearly between the pair of stops just less than and just greater than the input.
• ["exponential", base]: Interpolates exponentially between the stops just less than and just greater than the input. base controls the rate at which the output increases: higher values make the output increase more towards the high end of the range. With values close to 1 the output increases linearly.
• ["cubic-bezier", x1, y1, x2, y2]: Interpolates using the cubic bezier curve defined by the given control points.

    stop_input_n: number, stop_output_n: Color, ...
]: Color

step

Produces discrete, stepped results by evaluating a piecewise-constant function defined by pairs of input and output values (“stops”). The input may be any numeric expression (e.g., ["get", "population"]). Stop inputs must be numeric literals in strictly ascending order. Returns the output value of the stop just less than the input, or the first output if the input is less than the first stop.

Syntax

["step",
    input: number,
