How to set “Types” in Google Place PlacePicker in

问题:

In the new google places API, they come with a new feature called PlacePicker. It's a simple activity to select a place of the list/map of places they have.

In the Places API we can give a types list, to receive only places of those specific types.

I'm building an app that uses only "establishment" places.

But this activity shows all the places, including a lot of places that i do not need (libraries, schools, gas ...)

There is a way to set the types of the PlacePicker?

Reading the API docs doesn't say nothing about.

Currently it seems not to be possible. There is an open feature request, however. Please star it.

Apparently right now, android have documentation to do some filtering using AutocompleteFilter class. The documentation of Place Autocomplete

example of usage :

//set boundary on build place picker fragment
PlacePicker.IntentBuilder builder = new PlacePicker.IntentBuilder();
builder.setLatLngBounds(bounds);

 //set filter type by country 'malaysia'
AutocompleteFilter typeFilter = new AutocompleteFilter.Builder()
    .setTypeFilter(1013) //set point of interest
    .setCountry("MY")
    .build();

try {
    Intent intent = new PlaceAutocomplete.IntentBuilder(PlaceAutocomplete.MODE_OVERLAY)
        .setFilter(typeFilter)
        .build(MainActivity.this);

    startActivityForResult(intent, PLACE_AUTOCOMPLETE_REQUEST_CODE);        
} catch (GooglePlayServicesRepairableException e) {
    // TODO: Handle the error.
} catch (GooglePlayServicesNotAvailableException e) {
    // TODO: Handle the error.
