Usage

Before interacting with any maps plugin, it is necessary to initialize the maps module.

import {OmhMapView, OmhMapsModule, OmhMapsGoogleMapsIOSProvider} from '@openmobilehub/maps-core';
import {OmhMapsGoogleMapsProvider} from '@openmobilehub/maps-plugin-googlemaps';
import {OmhMapsOpenStreetMapProvider} from '@openmobilehub/maps-plugin-openstreetmap';

// You can use different providers for iOS and Android.
// For Android, you can use different providers for devices with and without Google Play Services.
// Remember to initialize the module before using any of its components.
OmhMapsModule.initialize({
gmsProvider: OmhMapsGoogleMapsProvider,
nonGmsProvider: OmhMapsOpenStreetMapProvider, // <- Note: Google Maps is not available on devices without Google Play Services.
iosProvider: OmhMapsGoogleMapsIOSProvider,
});

const App = () => {
return <OmhMapView />;
}

Usage Guide

Interacting with the Google Maps provider follows the same pattern as other providers, as they all implement the same interface. For a comprehensive list of available modules, components, and props, refer to the Quick Start guide.
