# Vue 3 Google maps Components

Set of mostly used Google Maps components for Vue.js.

#### Why this library exists?
We heavily use Google Maps in our projects, so I wanted to have a well maintained Google Maps library.

## Documentation
Checkout [vue-map.netlify.app](https://vue-map.netlify.app) for a detailed documentation or [codesandbox for an example](https://codesandbox.io/s/vue-3-google-maps-ygpr4?file=/src/main.js)

## Installation
You can install it using npm
```
npm install -S @fawmi/vue-google-maps
```

## Basic usage
You need an API Key. Learn how to [get an Api key ](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/get-api-key).

### Configure Vue to use the Components

In your `main.js`

```js
import { createApp } from 'vue'
import VueGoogleMaps from '@fawmi/vue-google-maps'

const app = createApp(App);
app.use(VueGoogleMaps, {
load: {
key: 'YOUR_API_KEY_COMES_HERE',
},
}).mount('#app')

```
### Use it anywhere in your components

```vue


export default {
name: 'App',
data() {
return {
center: {lat: 51.093048, lng: 6.842120},
}
}
}

```
## Components

### Markers

If you need to add markers to the `Map`, add `GMapMarker` as child of `GMapMap` component.
```vue



export default {
name: 'App',
data() {
return {
center: {lat: 51.093048, lng: 6.842120},
markers: [
{
id: 'dfsldjl3r',
position: {
lat: 51.093048, lng: 6.842120
},
}
]
}
}
}

```

### Cluster
If you have too many markers, it is helpful to cluster markers. You can easily cluster markers by wrapping your markers with `GMapCluster` component.

```vue





export default {
name: 'App',
data() {
return {
center: {lat: 51.093048, lng: 6.842120},
markers: [
{
position: {
lat: 51.093048, lng: 6.842120
},
}
, // Along list of clusters
]
}
}
}

```

### Heatmap
If you need to add heatmap layer to the Map, add visualization library in load config and add GMapHeatmap as child of GMapMap component.

```js
import { createApp } from 'vue'
import VueGoogleMaps from '@fawmi/vue-google-maps'

const app = createApp(App);
app.use(VueGoogleMaps, {
load: {
key: 'YOUR_API_KEY_COMES_HERE',
libraries: "visualization"
},
}).mount('#app')

```

```vue



export default {
name: 'App',
setup() {
const center = {lat: 52.2985593, lng: 104.2455337}
const zoom = 12
const myMapRef = ref();
const heatData = ref([])

watch(myMapRef, googleMap => {
if (googleMap) {
googleMap.$mapPromise.then(map=> {
heatData.value = [
{location: new google.maps.LatLng({lat: 52.2985593, lng: 104.2455337})},
];
})
}
});

return {
center,
zoom,
heatData,
myMapRef
}
},
}

```

## Access map object
If you want to access `google map` object, you can access it by getting ref of the map object.
```vue

export default {
mounted() {
console.log(this.$refs.myMapRef)
}
}

```
### Map options
You can pass Map options using options property:

See [MapOptions](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/reference/map#MapOptions) for a complete list of available options.
```vue

```

## More components

Many other components are also supported. Checkout [docs](https://vue-map.netlify.app) for more.

## Nuxt 3 usage

First add `@fawmi/vue-google-maps` to `build.transpile` property in your `nuxt.config.ts`.

```ts
export default defineNuxtConfig({
build: {
transpile: ['@fawmi/vue-google-maps']
},
})
```

Then create a plugin `~/plugin/vueGoogleMaps.ts`.

```ts
import { defineNuxtPlugin } from '#app'
import VueGoogleMaps from '@fawmi/vue-google-maps'

export default defineNuxtPlugin((nuxtApp) => {
nuxtApp.vueApp.use(VueGoogleMaps, {
load: {
key: 'YOUR_GOOGLE_API_KEY',
},
})
})
```
