Laravel Google Maps

Thank you, Bradley Cornford, for creating the original .

Introduction

Consider Laravel Google Maps as a streamlined solution for seamlessly integrating Google Maps with Laravel. It offers a range of convenient helpers to accelerate mapping utilization, including:

• Mapper::map
• Mapper::location
• Mapper::streetview
• Mapper::marker
• Mapper::informationWindow
• Mapper::polyline
• Mapper::polygon
• Mapper::rectangle
• Mapper::circle
• Mapper::render

Installation

Next, update Composer via the Terminal:

composer update

Once the operation is complete, proceed to add the service provider. Open app/config/app.php and append a new item to the providers array.

Davidvandertuijn\LaravelGoogleMaps\MapperServiceProvider::class,

Subsequently, introduce the facade. Similarly, in app/config/app.php, add a new item to the aliases array.

'Mapper' => Davidvandertuijn\LaravelGoogleMaps\Facades\MapperFacade::class,

Lastly, integrate the configuration files into your application.

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Davidvandertuijn\LaravelGoogleMaps\MapperServiceProvider" --tag=laravel-google-maps

Don't forget to configure your Google API Key as the GOOGLE_API_KEY environment variable. Obtain an API key for your project from the Google developers console.

Configuration

Configure Laravel Google Maps effortlessly in a few steps. Open config/laravel-google-maps.php and adjust the options accordingly.

• enabled - Enable Google Maps.

• clusters.grid - The grid size of a cluster in pixels.
• clusters.zoom - The maximum zoom level that a marker can be part of a cluster.
• clusters.center - Whether the center of each cluster should be the average of all markers in the cluster.
• clusters.size - The minimum number of markers to be in a cluster before the markers are hidden and a count is shown.

Usage

It's straightforward—utilize the Mapper class in any Controller/Model/File as needed:

Mapper::

This will give you access to

• Map
• Location
• Streetview
• Marker
• Information Window
• Polyline
• Polygon
• Rectangle
• Circle
• Render
• RenderJavascript

Example

Initialize the map in your controller MapController.php:

use Mapper;

public function index()
{
    Mapper::map(53.381128999999990000, -1.470085000000040000);

    return view('map')
}

Within in the view map.blade.php add following code to render the map:

<div style="width: 500px; height: 500px;">
    {!! Mapper::render() !!}
</div>

Map

The map method allows a map to be created, with latitude, longitude and optional parameters for options.

Mapper::map(53.381128999999990000, -1.470085000000040000);
Mapper::map(53.381128999999990000, -1.470085000000040000, ['zoom' => 15, 'center' => false, 'marker' => false, 'type' => 'HYBRID', 'overlay' => 'TRAFFIC']);
Mapper::map(53.381128999999990000, -1.470085000000040000, ['zoom' => 10, 'markers' => ['title' => 'My Location', 'animation' => 'DROP']]);
Mapper::map(53.381128999999990000, -1.470085000000040000, ['zoom' => 10, 'markers' => ['title' => 'My Location', 'animation' => 'DROP'], 'cluster' => false]);
Mapper::map(53.381128999999990000, -1.470085000000040000, ['zoom' => 10, 'markers' => ['title' => 'My Location', 'animation' => 'DROP'], 'clusters' => ['size' => 10, 'center' => true, 'zoom' => 20]]);

Map Events

Before Load

This event is fired before the map is loaded.

Mapper::map(53.381128999999990000, -1.470085000000040000, ['eventBeforeLoad' => 'console.log("before load");']);

This event is fired after the map is loaded.

Mapper::map(53.381128999999990000, -1.470085000000040000, ['eventAfterLoad' => 'console.log("after load");']);

Location

The location method allows a location to be searched for with a string, returning a Location object with its latitude and longitude.

Mapper::location('Sheffield');
Mapper::location('Sheffield')->map(['zoom' => 15, 'center' => false, 'marker' => false, 'type' => 'HYBRID', 'overlay' => 'TRAFFIC']);
Mapper::location('Sheffield')->streetview(1, 1, ['ui' => false]);
