How to color vue2 leaflet markers dynamically?

Question

I have an google-maps_pin.svg file which represents a google-maps pin.

I would like to color the different markers (generated with v-for) based on categories (restaurant, art gallery, etc.) dynamically.

Is there a way to achieve that with vue2 leaflet?

Here's my map:

<l-map 
  style="z-index: 0" 
  ref="mapRef" 
  :zoom="zoom" 
  :center="center" 
  @update:zoom="zoomUpdated" 
  @update:center="centerUpdated"
  @update:bounds="boundsUpdated">
  <l-tile-layer :url="url"></l-tile-layer>
  <l-marker 
      v-for="(markedLocation, index) in marker" 
      :key="'marker-' + index" 
      :lat-lng="markedLocation.location" 
      :icon-url="require('@/assets/googlemaps_markers/google-maps_pin.svg')">
  </l-marker>
</l-map>

The color I want to give to the individual pins is stored in markedLocation.info.category.color variable.

I am using this pointhi/leaflet-color-markers

I have an icon color file with all my icons:

export const redIcon = new L.Icon({
  iconUrl:
    "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pointhi/leaflet-color- 
     markers/master/img/marker-icon-2x-red.png",
  shadowUrl:
         "https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/leaflet/0.7.7/images/marker- 
          shadow.png",
    iconSize: [25, 41],
    iconAnchor: [12, 41],
    popupAnchor: [1, -34],
    shadowSize: [41, 41]
});

and then, I use my redIcon in the map like this:

<l-marker
  v-for="(item, index) in list"
  :key="index"
  :icon="getIcon()"
>
getIcon() {
  return redIcon;
}

Answer 2

Yes you can implement by using this property L.divIcon().

Represents a lightweight icon for markers that uses a simple <div> element instead of an image. Inherits from Icon but ignores the iconUrl and shadow options.

Your template will be like bellow

<div id="app">
    <l-map :zoom="zoom" :center="center">
      <l-tile-layer :url="url" :attribution="attribution"></l-tile-layer>
      <l-marker 
        v-for="(item, index) in markers"
        :key="'marker-' + index"
        :lat-lng="item.location"
        :icon="getIcon(item)"></l-marker>
    </l-map>
</div>

and your getIcon() method will be like this

getIcon(item) {
  return L.divIcon({
    className: "my-custom-pin",
    html: `<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 20 34.892337" height="60" width="40">
  <g transform="translate(-814.59595,-274.38623)">
    <g transform="matrix(1.1855854,0,0,1.1855854,-151.17715,-57.3976)">

    </g>

  });
}
