React.js Google Maps API integration

Package Exports

  • @react-google-maps/api

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@react-google-maps/api) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

@react-google-maps/api

React Google Maps API 1.0.8

This library requires React v16.6 or later. If you need support for earlier versions of React, you should check out react-google-maps

This is complete re-write of the (sadly unmaintained) react-google-maps library. We thank tomchentw for his great work that made possible.

@react-google-maps/api provides very simple bindings to the google maps api and lets you use it in your app as React components.

Here are the main additions to react-google-maps that were the motivation behind this re-write

Install @react-google-maps/api

npm i -S @react-google-maps/api @babel/polyfill @babel/runtime

and

npm i -D @babel/preset-env @babel/preset-react @babel/plugin-proposal-object-rest-spread @babel/plugin-proposal-class-properties @babel/plugin-transform-spread @babel/plugin-syntax-dynamic-import @babel/plugin-transform-runtime babel-plugin-macros babel-plugin-transform-react-remove-prop-types

On top of your app ,you need to import @babel/polyfill

import "@babel/polyfill";

If you do not have .babelrc file, create it next to package.json

Content of .babelrc should look like this:

{
  "presets": [
    "@babel/preset-env",
    "@babel/preset-react"
  ],
  "plugins": [
    "@babel/plugin-transform-spread",
    "@babel/plugin-proposal-object-rest-spread",
    "@babel/plugin-proposal-class-properties",
    "@babel/plugin-syntax-dynamic-import",
    [
      "@babel/plugin-transform-runtime",
      {
        "corejs": false,
        "helpers": true,
        "regenerator": true,
        "useESModules": false
      }
    ],
    "babel-plugin-macros"
  ],
  "env": {
    "production": {
      "plugins": [
        "babel-plugin-transform-react-remove-prop-types"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Main features

  • Simplified API
  • Uses the new Context API
  • Supports async React (StrictMode complient)
  • Removes lodash dependency => smaller bundle size 12.4kb, tree-shakeable https://bundlephobia.com/result?p=@react-google-maps/api@1.0.0
  • forbids loading of Roboto fonts, if you set property preventGoogleFonts on <LoadScript preventGoogleFonts /> component

Examples

Examples can be found in two places:

  1. Official docs (powered by docz). See the docs folder
  2. A Gatsby app including some examples. See the examples folder
  3. Gatsby.js Demo

Advise

You can save on bundle size if you import only components, which you use from @react-google-maps/api/lib/..., although whole library is tree-shakable.

Using the examples requires you to generate a google maps api key. For instructions on how to do that please see the following guide
