# Place Tracker
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A sample place tracking app that uses the
|
|
|
|
|
[google_maps_flutter](https://github.com/flutter/plugins/tree/master/packages/google_maps_flutter)
|
|
|
|
|
plugin. Keep track of your favorite places, places you've visited, and places
|
|
|
|
|
you want to go. View details about these places, show them on a map, and get
|
|
|
|
|
directions to them.
|
|
|

## The important bits
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### `place_map.dart`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This page shows a full-screen GoogleMap widget with place markers. Provides
|
|
|
|
|
examples of how to stack other widgets on top of a GoogleMap widget, how to add
|
|
|
|
|
markers to a map, and how to make other flutter widgets interact with the
|
|
|
|
|
GoogleMap widget.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### `place_details.dart`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This page shows a detailed view of a single place. Provides examples of how to
|
|
|
|
|
place a GoogleMap widget inside of a ListView and how to disable certain touch
|
|
|
|
|
gestures on the map.

## Getting Started
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To run this sample app, you will need an API key.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Get an API key at <https://cloud.google.com/maps-platform/>.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Android
|
|
|
|
|
Specify your API key in the application manifest
|
|
|
|
|
`android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```xml
|
|
|
|
|
<manifest ...
|
|
|
|
|
<application ...
|
|
|
|
|
<meta-data android:name="com.google.android.geo.API_KEY"
|
|
|
|
|
android:value="YOUR KEY HERE"/>
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### iOS
|
|
|
|
|
Specify your API key in `AppDelegate.swift`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```swift
|
|
|
|
|
@UIApplicationMain
|
|
|
|
|
@objc class AppDelegate: FlutterAppDelegate {
|
|
|
|
|
override func application(
|
|
|
|
|
_ application: UIApplication,
|
|
|
|
|
didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?
|
|
|
|
|
) -> Bool {
|
|
|
|
|
GMSServices.provideAPIKey("YOUR API KEY HERE")
|
|
|
|
|
GeneratedPluginRegistrant.register(with: self)
|
|
|
|
|
return super.application(application, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: launchOptions)
|
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
