Situation: I am adding a new geoJson layer to my map and I want to animate all the markers in once they have been added with a slight delay between each one. The API appears to do everything BUT offer a callback for when the last marker is added!

Sample code

L.geoJson(data, {      
    onEachFeature: function (feature, layer) {
        console.log(feature, layer);
    }
}).addTo(map);

what I would like is

 L.geoJson(data, {      
    onEachFeature: function (feature, layer) {
        console.log(feature, layer);
    },
    plete:function(layers){
        console.log(layers);
    }
}).addTo(map);

I know each layer has an onAdd event but is there similar for a layerGroup?

Thanks

I have got in contact with the major contributors of leafletjs and there is no need to have a callback for a standard geojson layer, you can just do this;

var layer = L.geoJson(data, {}).addTo(map);
animateMyIconsIn(layer.getLayers()); // your custom function

However you do need a callback if you are using the AJAX plugin;

//first create the layer
var  layer = L.geoJson.AJAX(url, {});
//then add a listener
layer.on('dataLoadComplete',function(e){
    //finally add the layer
    layer.addTo(map);
    animateMyIconsIn(layer.getLayers()); // your custom function
});

updated syntax is currently "data: loaded" as found from this post;
