# google-maps-loader

Async loader for google maps api.

**Version >= 4.0.0:** Typescript definitions are published with this package. Install `@types/google-maps` for previous 
versions.

This module does not change original google maps api in any way. It just provide easy way to load and use this API
asynchronously.

**Browser only!**

## Installation

```
$ npm install --save google-maps
```

or with [Pika](https://www.pika.dev/npm/google-maps):

```html
<script type="module">
    import { Loader } from 'https://cdn.pika.dev/google-maps';
    // todo: see docs bellow
</script>
```

## Usage

```typescript
import {Loader, LoaderOptions} from 'google-maps';
// or const {Loader} = require('google-maps'); without typescript

const options: LoaderOptions = {/* todo */};
const loader = new Loader('my-api-key', options);

const google = await loader.load();
const map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'), {
    center: {lat: -34.397, lng: 150.644},
    zoom: 8,
});
```

**Without await/async:**

```typescript
loader.load().then(function (google) {
    const map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'), {
        center: {lat: -34.397, lng: 150.644},
        zoom: 8,
    });
});
```
