Mapbox Maki API only works with old icons, not the new ones

[jseppi]

As discovered by @CouchFrancois in mapbox/maki#370, the new Maki icons are not available via the static marker API.

Will need to update documentation/examples/comments in Leaflet.MakiMarkers to let users know about this, and refer them to https://github.com/mapbox/maki/blob/mb-pages/www/maki.json to find which icon names are valid.

Do you have time for a pr?

[jseppi]

Sure!

I don't see any options to handle this issue before mapbox static API begins support Maki icons > v0.5.0
Do you have any options? Is there a way to use icons without the mapbox API?

[jseppi]

The only option I have is to update this plugin's documentation as I noted in the original post for this issue.

You could setup your own icon server using Makizushi or roll your own system for serving the icons.

I've made a server based on Makizushi at https://github.com/webgeodatavore/express-simplestyle-spec/
