vuejs-google-map

Google Map components and integration for VueJs

This package is under active development, the documentation is not complete yet, so if is missing something open a request or look at the source code.

Installation

npm i vuejs-google-maps
yarn add vuejs-google-maps

Usage

Before starting you need a Google API key from the developer console, once you obtained your key, import the module in your application and register it as plugin:

import Vue from 'vue'
import VueGoogleMap from 'vuejs-google-maps'
import 'vuejs-google-maps/dist/vuejs-google-maps.css'

Vue.use(VueGoogleMap, {
    load: {
        apiKey: 'your-api-key',
        libraries: [/* rest of libraries */]
    }
})

♻️ Usage with Nuxt.js

Add vuejs-google-maps/nuxt to modules section of nuxt.config.js

export default {
    modules: [
        // Simple usage
        'vuejs-google-maps/nuxt',
        // Passing options in module configuration
        ['vuejs-google-maps/nuxt', {apiKey: 'xxxxxx', libraries: [/* rest of libraries */]}]
    ],
    // Passing options in module top level configuration
    googleMaps: {apiKey: 'xxxxxx', libraries: [/* rest of libraries */]}
}

This module tries to map GoogleMap with Vue components as much as possible so any of the options available on the original GoogleMap class will be available as component props and all the events emitted will be mapped to component events.

const center = { lat: 50.064192, lng: -130.605469 };
// Create a bounding box with sides ~10km away from the center point
const defaultBounds = {
  north: center.lat + 0.1,
  south: center.lat - 0.1,
  east: center.lng + 0.1,
  west: center.lng - 0.1,
};
const options = {
  bounds: defaultBounds,
  componentRestrictions: { country: "us" },
  fields: ["address_components", "geometry", "icon", "name"],
  strictBounds: false,
  types: ["establishment"],
};

<template>
  <div class="info-windows">
    <google-map id="map" ref="Map">
      <google-map-marker
          :key="index"
          v-for="(infoWindow, index) in infoWindowsList"
          :position="infoWindow.position"
          :key="index"
          @click="toggleInfoWindow(infoWindow)"
      />
      <google-map-infowindow
          :position="infoWIndowContext.position"
          :show.sync="showInfo"
          :options="{maxWidth: 300}"
          @info-window-clicked="infoClicked"
