Panorama fetching tools for JavaScript
PanomNom.js is a spiritual succesor to GSVPano.js. This new version is updated to use ES6 features like modules and async/await.
Current supported sources
- Google Street View panoramas
- Google PhotoSpheres (seems flaky since servers sometimes don't return a CORS header)
- Google Street View panorama depth and planes info (mostly working)
Include the google maps API for the services to resolve metadata.
<script src="https://maps.google.com/maps/api/js"></script>Include the library or the module. You can import the functions separatedly from the /src folder, or from the PanomNom.module file.
There are two loaders, one for Street View panoramas and another for PhotoSpheres.
import { GoogleStreetViewLoader } from "./PanomNom.module.js";Create a loader:
const loader = new GoogleStreetViewLoader();Then loader.load takes an id and a zoom level (1-5, default 1). There are a few helper methods to retrieve panoIds.
/* Load from ID: pano id, zoom 3 */
await loader.load(panoId, 3);
/* Load from location: google.maps.LatLng, zoom default 1 */
import { getIdByLocation } from "./PanonomNom.module.js";
const data = await getIdByLocation(pos.lat, pos.lng);
await loader.load(data.data.location.pano);
/* Load from URL: URL from maps.google.com, zoom 2 */
import { getIdFromURL } from "./PanonomNom.module.js";
const id = getIdFromURL(url);
await loader.load(id, 2);Once the panorama is loaded, loader.canvas has the resulting stitched image.
Note: getIdByLocation will only return ids valid for Street View panoramas
You can use loader.onProgress to track loading progress:
loader.onProgress((p) => {
console.log(`Loaded ${p.toFixed(0)}%`);
});Very important: loader.metadata.copyright should contain the copyright notice for the retrieves images. You should display it somewhere in your page.
Please see the examples folder for proper implementations of each case.
Street View panorama from id
Street View panorama from lat,lng
Street View panorama from URL
