Leaflet: adjust popup to picture size

Question

I\'m trying to include pictures in my leaflet popups, but the popup-size doesn\'t adjust to the picture size. I found a solution to this on github:

Answer 1

Simply specifying maxWidth: "auto" option on the popup seems enough…

layer.bindPopup(popupContent, {
  maxWidth: "auto"
});

EDIT

Unfortunately, if the image is not loaded yet in browser cache, the popup will open right away with default size, and adjust its size but not its position once the image is fully loaded and displayed. As a result, the popup is shifted and its arrow is misplaced compared to the marker it is bound to.

A simple workaround is to listen to the image "load" event and to re-open the popup at that moment:

popupContent = document.createElement("img");
popupContent.onload = function () {
  layer.openPopup();
};
popupContent.src = "path/to/image";
layer.bindPopup(popupContent, {
  maxWidth: "auto"
});

EDIT 2

Here is a more general solution: capture the 's "load" event on all Leaflet popups and force them to update() every time.

document.querySelector(".leaflet-popup-pane").addEventListener("load", function (event) {
  var tagName = event.target.tagName,
      popup = map._popup; // Currently open popup, if any.

  if (tagName === "IMG" && popup) {
    popup.update();
  }
}, true); // Capture the load event, because it does not bubble.
