google-map-react
is a component written over a small set of the Google Maps API. It allows you to render any React component on the Google Map. It is fully isomorphic and can render on a server. Additionally, it can render map components in the browser even if the Google Maps API is not loaded. It uses an internal, tweakable hover algorithm - every object on the map can be hovered.
It allows you to create interfaces like this example (You can scroll the table, zoom/move the map, hover/click on markers, and click on table rows)
In the simple case you just need to add lat
and lng
props to any child of GoogleMapReact
component.
1import React from "react"; 2import GoogleMapReact from 'google-map-react'; 3 4const AnyReactComponent = ({ text }) => <div>{text}</div>; 5 6export default function SimpleMap(){ 7 const defaultProps = { 8 center: { 9 lat: 10.99835602, 10 lng: 77.01502627 11 }, 12 zoom: 11 13 }; 14 15 return ( 16 // Important! Always set the container height explicitly 17 <div style={{ height: '100vh', width: '100%' }}> 18 <GoogleMapReact 19 bootstrapURLKeys={{ key: "" }} 20 defaultCenter={defaultProps.center} 21 defaultZoom={defaultProps.zoom} 22 > 23 <AnyReactComponent 24 lat={59.955413} 25 lng={30.337844} 26 text="My Marker" 27 /> 28 </GoogleMapReact> 29 </div> 30 ); 31}
npm:
npm install --save google-map-react
yarn:
yarn add google-map-react
Instead of the default Google Maps markers, balloons and other map components, you can render your cool animated react components on the map.
It renders on the server. (Welcome search engines) (you can disable javascript in browser dev tools, and reload any example page to see how it works)
It renders components on the map before (and even without) the Google Maps API loaded.
There is no need to place a <script src=
tag at top of page. The Google Maps API loads upon the first usage of the GoogleMapReact
component.
You can access to Google Maps map
and maps
objects by using onGoogleApiLoaded
, in this case you will need to set yesIWantToUseGoogleMapApiInternals
to true
1... 2 3const handleApiLoaded = (map, maps) => { 4 // use map and maps objects 5}; 6 7... 8 9<GoogleMapReact 10 bootstrapURLKeys={{ key: /* YOUR KEY HERE */ }} 11 defaultCenter={this.props.center} 12 defaultZoom={this.props.zoom} 13 yesIWantToUseGoogleMapApiInternals 14 onGoogleApiLoaded={({ map, maps }) => handleApiLoaded(map, maps)} 15> 16 <AnyReactComponent 17 lat={59.955413} 18 lng={30.337844} 19 text="My Marker" 20 /> 21</GoogleMapReact>
PST: Remember to set yesIWantToUseGoogleMapApiInternals
to true.
Now every object on the map can be hovered (however, you can still use css hover selectors if you want). If you try zooming out here example, you will still be able to hover on almost every map marker.
Hover effects: simple hover (source); distance hover (source)
Example project: main (source); balderdash (same source as main)

Local development is broken into two parts (ideally using two tabs).
First, run rollup to watch your src/
module and automatically recompile it into dist/
whenever you make changes.
1npm start # runs rollup with watch flag
The second part will be running the example/
create-react-app that's linked to the local version of your module.
1# (in another tab) 2cd example 3npm start # runs create-react-app dev server
Now, anytime you make a change to your library in src/
or to the example app's example/src
, create-react-app
will live-reload your local dev server so you can iterate on your component in real-time.
If you get the error Module not found: Can't resolve 'google-react-map'...
while trying to run the example app, you need to manually link your local development module, try the following steps:
1npm link
example/
and (after installing other dependencies) execute:1npm link google-map-react
