Background
-----------------
There is already [one](https://github.com/nlaplante/angular-google-maps) for this. However, I found myself taking a totally different approach than the existing one, such as:
1. **Everything in tag and attributes.**
Thus, users don't even need knowledge of JavaScript.
2. **Expose all original Google Maps V3 API to the user.**
No hiding, no wrapping or whatsoever.
By doing so, programmers don't need to learn how to use this module.
You only need to know Google Maps V3 API.
There is a blog that introduces this module. The title of it is '[Google Map As The Simplest Way](http://allenhwkim.tumblr.com/post/70986888283/google-map-as-the-simplest-way)'
To get started
--------------
For Bower users,
`$ bower install ngmap`
1. Include `ng-map.min.js`:
``
2. Include Google Maps:
``
2. Name your AngularJS app ngMap, or add it as a dependency
`var myApp = angular.module('myApp', ['ngMap']);`
To get the map instance use the `NgMap.getMap()` function
app.controller('MyController', function(NgMap) {
NgMap.getMap().then(function(map) {
console.log(map.getCenter());
console.log('markers', map.markers);
console.log('shapes', map.shapes);
});
});
For npm users,
`$ npm install ngmap`
For Meteor users: https://atmospherejs.com/wormy/angularjs-google-maps
Lazy loading of Google Maps JavaScript
---------------------------------------
Simply wrap the map tag with `map-lazy-load="https://maps.google.com/maps/api/js"`.
If you need to pass in an API key to the javascript, you can set a scope
variable in your controller (e.g. `$scope.googleMapsUrl="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=YOUR_KEY_HERE";`).
This can be set from a constant value in your app to standardise the API key to pass to google for multiple controllers.
FAQ
----
## Grey area in Google Maps
The usual reason why this happens is that the size of the map is changed after the map has been initialized. If you for some reason change the size of the div, you need to trigger the "resize" event and possible recenter the map.
var center = map.getCenter();
google.maps.event.trigger(map, "resize");
map.setCenter(center);

## Check if a marker is within `Map`, `Rectangle`, or `Circle`
`map.getBounds().contains(marker.getPosition());`

## Calculate distance between two position
You can check this out: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/distancematrix.
As you see, DistanceMatrix does not require map nor directive.
Another way to do this, is to use directions directive. As you see it here: https://rawgit.com/allenhwkim/angularjs-google-maps/master/testapp/directions2.html, you have access to DirectionsRenderer by using `map.directionsRenderers[id]`
https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/reference?hl=en#DirectionsRenderer
You use `getDirections()` or `directions`, then calculate the distance from there. e.g.,
Distance:
`{{ map.directionsRenderers[0].directions.routes[0].legs[0].distance }}`
