How to get the area string from a polygon using leaflet.draw

Question

I am trying to get the area measurements of polygons so I can list them in a table to the side of the map, next to the name of the polygon. This is what I have tried with n

Answer 1

L.GeometryUtil.geodesicArea(layer.getLatLngs())[0] should get you the area.

But I ended up using leaflet-geoman-free to do the drawing and use turf.js to get the area.

map.pm.enableDraw('Polygon', {
   snappable: true,
   snapDistance: 20,
});

map.on('pm:create', e => {
   const layer = e.layer
   alert(turf.area(layer.toGeoJSON()))
});
