We start by initializing MapsIndoors
. MapsIndoors
is used to get and store all references to MapsIndoors-specific data. This includes access to all MapsIndoors-specific geodata.
Place the following initialization code in the onCreate
method in the MapsActivity
that displays the Google map. You should also assign the mapFragment
view to a local variable, as we will use this later to initialize inside the onCreate
, after it has been created:
If you do not have your own key, you can use this demo MapsIndoors API key: 02c329e6777d431a88480a09
.
In your onMapReady
callback function, assign the mMap
variable with the GoogleMap
you get from the callback and call the initMapControl
method with the mMapView
you assigned in the onCreate
to set up a Google map with MapsIndoors Venues, Buildings and Locations. For Mapbox you can simple call initMapControl inside your onCreate
:\
Expected result:
We now want to add all the data we get by initializing MapsIndoors
to our map. This is done by initializing onto the map. is used as a layer between the map provider and MapsIndoors.
uses Google Maps listeneres to control some map logic. So be aware that using Google Maps listeners directly might break intended behavior of the MapsIndoors experience. We recommend to check our reference docs, and see if you can add a specific Listener
through the and always use those when possible.
Start by creating an initMapControl
method which is used to initiate the and assign it to mMap:
