A small, renderless Vue component for finding addresses using Google Places API. The component simply provides a list of suggestions and place information as slot props in order to support custom UI and reduce size (2K gzipped). It is easily pluggable to Vuetify and other UI components.

This project was originally based on react-geosuggest and vue-google-maps.

Installation

npm install vue-geo-suggest
yarn add vue-geo-suggest

Apart from that, an API key is necessary for using Google Places. From the Google Developer Console's API Manager Dashboard, enable the following APIs:

Generate an API key and provide it to loadGmaps utility.

The component and utilities can be imported directly:

import { GeoSuggest, loadGmaps } from 'vue-geo-suggest'

loadGmaps('my-api-key')
Vue.component(GeoSuggest.name, GeoSuggest) // Or register locally where needed

Or used as a plugin:

import GeoSuggest from 'vue-geo-suggest'

Vue.use(GeoSuggest, { apiKey: 'my-api-key' })

Usage

<GeoSuggest
  :search="searchInput"
  :suggestion="selectedSuggestion"
  @geocoded="address = $event.normalizedAddress"
>
  <template v-slot="{ suggestions, loading }">
    <CustomSearchInput
      v-model="searchInput"
    />
    <CustomSuggestDropdown
      v-model="selectedSuggestion"
      :items="suggestions"
      :loading="loading"
    />
  </template>
</GeoSuggest>
import { GeoSuggest, loadGmaps } from 'vue-geo-suggest'

export default {
  components: { GeoSuggest },
  data() {
    return {
      searchInput: '', // Search text
      selectedSuggestion: null, // Selected suggest from dropdown
      address: null, // Information about the selected place
    }
  },
  mounted() {
    // Load API dependencies globally. This can be called any time
    // before using GeoSuggest component.
    // i.e. in `main.js` or directly in the view where is necessary.
    loadGmaps('my-api-key')
  },
}

Example with Vuetify:

<GeoSuggest
  v-slot="{ suggestions, loading }"
  :search="searchInput"
  :suggestion="selectedSuggestion"
  @geocoded="address = $event.normalizedAddress"
>
  <VCombobox
    v-model="selectedSuggestion"
    :search-input.sync="searchInput"
    :loading="loading"
    :items="suggestions"
    item-text="description"
    no-filter
    clearable
  />
</GeoSuggest>
