Leaflet Map API with Google Satellite Layer [duplicate]

I'm very interested in the Leaflet Map API.

However, I need to be able to use the Google Satellite Layer. I have not been able to find an example on how to add a Google Satellite Layer to Leaflet. I understand that I will still need to load the Google Maps API to do this (OpenLayers has an example).

You don't need a plugin or the Google API, you can add it as a XYZ tile layer.

Streets

googleStreets = L.tileLayer('http://{s}.google.com/vt/lyrs=m&x={x}&y={y}&z={z}',{
    maxZoom: 20,
    subdomains:['mt0','mt1','mt2','mt3']
});

Hybrid:

googleHybrid = L.tileLayer('http://{s}.google.com/vt/lyrs=s,h&x={x}&y={y}&z={z}',{
    maxZoom: 20,
    subdomains:['mt0','mt1','mt2','mt3']
});

Satellite:

googleSat = L.tileLayer('http://{s}.google.com/vt/lyrs=s&x={x}&y={y}&z={z}',{
    maxZoom: 20,
    subdomains:['mt0','mt1','mt2','mt3']
});

Terrain

googleTerrain = L.tileLayer('http://{s}.google.com/vt/lyrs=p&x={x}&y={y}&z={z}',{
    maxZoom: 20,
    subdomains:['mt0','mt1','mt2','mt3']
});


Note the difference in the "lyrs" parameter in the URL:
Hybrid: s,h;
Satellite: s;
Streets: m;
Terrain: p;

There's a third-party plugin for it: Demo: http://psha.org.ru/leaflet/bel.html (switch to Google Maps with the switcher) Source: http://psha.org.ru/leaflet/Google.js

this repository contains few tile layers google and other and very useful other plugins: https://github.com/shramov/leaflet-plugins

Leaflet has an official page for publishing all available plugins: http://leafletjs.com/plugins.html

You will find plugins there for adding Google layers support to Leaflet.
