Google Static Maps Overview

Provides a TWIG variable, googleStaticMaps with a buildUrl() method that takes URL parameters to pass into the Google Maps API. It then adds the API key to the query, signs it using the URL signing secret and returns the URL. Also includes a img() method that properly adds height/width attributes for you.

See https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/maps-static/dev-guide for the possible variables to pass into the function.

Configuring Google Static Maps

Put your API key and signing secret either into a config file (using .env) or into the GUI.

Using Google Static Maps

In twig:

<img src="{{ craft.googleStaticMaps.buildUrl({
	center: "0,0",
	zoom: "10",
	size: "400x400",
}) }}" >

{{ craft.googleStaticMaps.img(400, 400, {
	center: "0,0",
	zoom: 10
}) | raw }}
