I am trying to launch Google maps on my Server side Blazor app using JSInterop. I seem to have tried just about everything but can't get the map to show. Unfortunately there is very little samples if any about it on the internet since it's a fairly new framework and I am equally just getting my feet wet on Blazor myself, so I am probably doing a whole lot of things wrong. Any nudge in the right direction would be appreciated.
In my component file, I have:
@page "/MapTest"
@inject IJSRuntime JSRuntime
<style>
#map {
width: 60%;
height: 60%;
}
</style>
<h1>Display Google Map</h1>
<div @ref="map" id="map"></div>
@code {
ElementReference map; // reference to the DIV
protected override async Task OnAfterRenderAsync(bool firstRender)
{
await JSRuntime.InvokeVoidAsync("Showgooglemap", null);
//StateHasChanged();
}
}
On my _Host.cshtml file, I have:
<script src="_framework/blazor.server.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=xxxmykeyxxx&v=3"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function initialize() {
var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(40.716948, -74.003563);
var options = {
zoom: 14, center: latlng,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
};
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById
("map"), options);
}
//google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);
//i tried wrapping the call in a function to see if it helps
function Showgooglemap() {
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);
}
</script>
