GoogleMap AngularJS Directive

Demo
Documentation
Road Trip By StreetView

There is already one for this. However, I found myself doing totally different approach for this purpose than the existing one, such as;

1. Everything in tag and attributes.
   Thus, basic users don't even have to know what Javascript is.
2. Expose all original Google Maps V3 api to the user.
   No hiding, no wraping, 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'

To Get Started

For Bower users,

$ bower install ngmap

1. Include ng-map.min.js as well as google maps.
   <script src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js"></script>
<script src="http://rawgit.com/allenhwkim/angularjs-google-maps/master/build/scripts/ng-map.min.js"></script>

2. name angular app as ngMap, or add it as a dependency

   var myApp = angular.module('myApp', ['ngMap']);

After map is initialized, you will have one event and map instances

Event:

• mapInitialized with parameter with map

  In case your map directive scope is different from your controller scope, use this event to get the map instance.

    app.controller('parentParentController', function($scope) {
      $scope.$on('mapInitialized', function(event, map) {
        map.setCenter( .... )
        ..
      });
    });
  

Instances:

• $scope.map
• $scope.map.markers
• $scope.map.shapes
• etc

Lazy Loading

Simply wrap the map tag with map-lazy-load="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js".

<div map-lazy-load="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js">
  <map center="41,-87" zoom="3"></map>
</div>

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="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?v=3.20&client=XXXXenter-api-keyXXXX";). This can be set from a constant value in your app to standardise the API key to pass to google for multiple controllers.

<div map-lazy-load="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js"
      map-lazy-load-params="{{googleMapsUrl}}">
  <map center="41,-87" zoom="3"></map>
</div>

Directives

<map .. >

As defined on MapOptions, you can add any attributes, and events starting with on-. Please note that event value must be a function.

Example:

<map zoom="11" 
  center="[40.74, -74.18]" 
  disable-default-u-i="true"
  disable-double-click-zoom="true"
  draggable="false"
  draggable-cursor="help"
  dragging-cursor="move"
  keyboard-shortcuts="false"
  max-zoom="12"
  min-zoom="8"
  tilt="45"
  map-type-id="TERRAIN"
  zoom-to-include-markers="auto"
  >
</map>

i.e. < zoom="11" center="[40.74, -74.18]"

zoom-to-include-markers has two options "true" or "auto". Use "true" if your markers do not change after the map is rendered. Use "auto" if you want the map to auto zoom when markers are added or removed. Example zoom-to-include-markers

<marker .. >

As defined on MarkerOptions, you can add any attributes, and events starting with on-.

<map center="[40.74, -74.18]">
  <marker
      position="[40.76, -74.16]"
      title="Hello Marker"
      animation="Animation.BOUNCE"
      draggable="true"
      visible="true"
      icon="beachflag.png"></marker>
</map>

• gulp clean to cleanup the repository from a previous build ? does this work ?
• gulp test to run the Karma unit test suite.
• gulp test-e2e to run the Protractor test suite. For the first test run, you may need to update the protractor webdriver manager. It will show the command on screen if this is required (node_modules/gulp-protractor/node_modules/protractor/bin/webdriver-manager update).
• gulp testapp-server will start a web server for the testapp on http://localhost:8888
