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

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
