Description & Requirements

Plugin allows to embed Google map frames to the page or create external links to Google Maps service. Useful when listing addresses. Works with any browser, where Google Maps works.

Syntax

Complete list of all possible options:

{{googlemaps>address1;address2;address3[zoom=16,width=800,height=600,size=small,control=hierarchical,overviewmap=true,type=embedded]|alternative text}}

Google maps plugin can generate google maps in embedded frame (when type=embedded) or as link to google maps (when type is not set (default)).

Alternative text may include any other inline formatting supported by dokuwiki, and is rendered only for default type (if one specify alternative text then this type is forced, as there is no opportunity to render it in embedded mode). If alternative text is skipped then address is used as a link text.

embedded type supports several addresses to be marked on Google Maps (only first address will be used in default type). It is advised not to specify zoom in this case, which will be set automatically to optimal value to display all address markers on the map.

Parameters

Parameter name Possible valid values
zoom number from 1 to 19 which specifies the initial zoom; if not defined, then it is set to optimal value
width size in px – the width of embedded frame (overrides the default parameter value)
height size in px – the height of embedded frame (overrides the default parameter value)
size small (default) – generate small size window with limited set of controls
large – generate large size window with all controls
The sizes for the frames are taken from small_* and large_* parameters below.
control hierarchical (default) – show two buttons in top-right corner: “Map” and “Satellite”
all – show three buttons: “Map”, “Satellite” and “Hybrid”
none – show no buttons
overviewmap true (default) – show the link to overview map in right-bottom corner
false – do not show overview map
type unset (default) – render the link to google maps
embedded – render embedded frame with google maps

Default options

Parameter name Possible valid values
google_api_key Valid Google API key for the current site. See configuration for more details about how to generate it.
small_width (default is 425) size in px – the width of small frame, if size=small was specified
small_height (default is 350) size in px – the height of small frame, if size=small was specified
large_width (default is 550) size in px – the width of large frame, if size=large was specified
large_height (default is 450) size in px – the height of large frame, if size=large was specified

Demonstration

Configuration

Important is to register your site at Google to receive an access to Google services. Registration is free:

  • Register your website and receive you unique Google API key.
  • Modify the configuration file and put a newly generated key to google_api_key.

Release History

  • 2008-03-17 (r05) — Initial version.
  • 2008-10-03 (r47) — Plugin was refactored to allow formatting in comment. Also aligned in compliance with common practices how to process the flow.
  • 2010-10-15 (r205) — Three google-related plugins are merged into one bundle. Multiple addresses support was added.
  • 2016-09-20 — HTTPS fix. API adapted for “Elenor of Tsort” DokuWiki release.

Bugs and ToDo

Tested with IE 6.0 SP1, FF 3.5.x. No bugs at the moment.

There is nothing right now in my ToDo list. Please, add comment to this page.

Question:
1. Google API key should be placed in \doku\lib\plugins\google_maps\conf\default.php ?
It doesn't work for me somehow
