google_maps_flutter 0.0.1

A Flutter plugin for integrating Google Maps in iOS and Android applications.

Google Maps for Flutter (Developers Preview)

A Flutter plugin that provides a Google Maps widget.

Developers Preview Status

The plugin relies on Flutter's new mechanism for embedding Android and iOS views. As that mechanism is currently in a developers preview, this plugin should also be considered a developers preview.

Known issues are tagged with the platform-views and/or maps labels.

To use this plugin on iOS you need to opt-in for the embedded views preview by adding a boolean property to the app's Info.plist file, with the key io.flutter.embedded_views_preview and the value YES.

The API exposed by this plugin is not yet stable, and we expect some breaking changes to land soon.

Usage

To use this plugin, add

 google_maps_flutter:
   git:
     url: git://github.com/flutter/plugins
     path: packages/google_maps_flutter

as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file.

Getting Started

Get an API key at https://cloud.google.com/maps-platform/.

Android

Specify your API key in the application manifest android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml:

<manifest ...
  <application ...
    <meta-data android:name="com.google.android.geo.API_KEY"
               android:value="YOUR KEY HERE"/>

iOS

Specify your API key in the application delegate ios/Runner/AppDelegate.m:

#include "AppDelegate.h"
#include "GeneratedPluginRegistrant.h"
#import "GoogleMaps/GoogleMaps.h"

@implementation AppDelegate

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application
    didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
  [GMSServices provideAPIKey:@"YOUR KEY HERE"];
  [GeneratedPluginRegistrant registerWithRegistry:self];
  return [super application:application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:launchOptions];
}
@end

Opt-in to the embedded views preview by adding a boolean property to the app's Info.plist file with the key io.flutter.embedded_views_preview and the value YES.

Both

You can now add a GoogleMap widget to your widget tree.

The map view can be controlled with the GoogleMapController that is passed to the GoogleMap's onMapCreated callback.

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:google_maps_flutter/google_maps_flutter.dart';

void main() {
  runApp(MaterialApp(
    home: Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(title: const Text('Google Maps demo')),
      body: MapsDemo(),
    ),
  ));
}

class MapsDemo extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  State createState() => MapsDemoState();
}

class MapsDemoState extends State<MapsDemo> {

  GoogleMapController mapController;

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Padding(
      padding: EdgeInsets.all(15.0),
      child: Column(
        mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceEvenly,
        children: <Widget>[
          Center(
            child: SizedBox(
              width: 300.0,
              height: 200.0,
              child: GoogleMap(
                onMapCreated: _onMapCreated,
              ),
            ),
          ),
          RaisedButton(
            child: const Text('Go to London'),
            onPressed: mapController == null ? null : () {
              mapController.animateCamera(CameraUpdate.newCameraPosition(
                const CameraPosition(
                  bearing: 270.0,
                  target: LatLng(51.5160895, -0.1294527),
                  tilt: 30.0,
                  zoom: 17.0,
                ),
              ));
            },
          ),
        ],
      ),
    );
  }

  void _onMapCreated(GoogleMapController controller) {
    setState(() { mapController = controller; });
  }
}
