Any one using Google Maps SDK Pod ?

[Imran Ansari]

I'm having trouble with this Pod

    pod 'Google-Maps-iOS-SDK', '~> 1.0.2'

When I try using any of its classes, like in my AppDelegate, I have the line below:

    GMSServices.provideAPIKey("YOUR_API_KEY")

I get an error

app_delegate.rb:6:in `application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:': uninitialized constant AppDelegate::GMSServices (NameError)

The Pods.bridgesupport seems to have the class and method I'm trying to use.

<class name='GMSServices'>
<method class_method='true' selector='SDKVersion'>
<retval type='@' declared_type='NSString*'/>
</method>
<method class_method='true' selector='openSourceLicenseInfo'>
<retval type='@' declared_type='NSString*'/>
</method>
<method class_method='true' selector='provideAPIKey:'>
<arg index='0' type='@' name='APIKey' declared_type='NSString*'/>
<retval type='B' declared_type='BOOL'/>
</method>
</class>

I'm using a bunch of other PODs successfully, so not sure whats missing, the POD definition seems fine, based on what I see in the BridegSupport file.

Any ideas?

thanks

seems like the API keys arent being served yet, and it the tutorial says dont use StoryBoards, oh well..

HI,

can you try to delete your "vendor/Pods" folder, "vendor/Podfile.lock" then execute "rake clean" and then execute "rake"

[Imran Ansari]

I did try that to no effect

Has anyone been able to integrate the Google Maps SDK into their app?  I tried the example project from Watson, but the bridge-support file is throwing errors.  

"Objective-C stub for message `cameraWithLatitude:longitude:zoom:' type `@@:ddf' not precompiled. Make sure you properly link with the framework or library that defines this message."

Any help would be appreciated!

[Christopher Pappas]

Very strange -- it is now "just working".  Not sure what I did!

Thanks.

Hello,

I got the same error.

Could someone help me to debug this. I tried everything but nothing works....

I try to use new Google-Maps-iOS-SDK with cocoapod too but it doesn't work

Could you help me to debug this please?

Here is my simple code that I take from https://github.com/Watson1978/HelloGoogleMaps :

Rakefile

$

app_delegate.rb (I got error on line 20 GMSServices.provideAPIKey(GOOGLE_MAP_API_KEY) that tells (NameError) could not find reference of GMSServices...)

GOOGLE_MAP_API_KEY = "MY_API_KEY"

class GoogleMapsController < UIViewController
  def loadView
    camera = GMSCameraPosition.cameraWithLatitude(35.689466, longitude: 139.700196, zoom: 15)
    @map_view = GMSMapView.mapWithFrame(CGRectZero, camera: camera)
    @map_view.myLocationEnabled = true
    self.view = @map_view

    marker = GMSMarker.alloc.init
    marker.position = CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(35.689466, 139.700196)
    marker.title = "Shinjuku"
    marker.snippet = "Japan"
    marker.map = @map_view
  end
end

class AppDelegate
  def application(application, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:launchOptions)
    GMSServices.provideAPIKey(GOOGLE_MAP_API_KEY)
    @window = UIWindow.alloc.initWithFrame(UIScreen.mainScreen.bounds)
    @window.rootViewController = GoogleMapsController.new
    @window.makeKeyAndVisible
    true
  end
end

I tried to add this like Watson1978 HelloGoogleMaps Sample, but still not works... (I change the 'vendor/GoogleMaps.framework' path with mine 'vendor/Pods/Google-Maps-iOS-SDK/GoogleMaps.framework')

app.vendor_project('vendor/GoogleMaps.framework',
    :static,
    :products    => %w{GoogleMaps},
    :headers_dir => 'Headers')
  app.resources_dirs << 'vendor/GoogleMaps.framework/Resources'
  app.frameworks += %w{AVFoundation CoreData CoreLocation CoreText GLKit ImageIO OpenGLES QuartzCore SystemConfiguration}
  app.libs       += %w{/usr/lib/libicucore.dylib /usr/lib/libc++.dylib /usr/lib/libz.dylib}

What should I do?

Sorry, here is my Rakefile (it was cropped before...)

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
$:.unshift("/Library/RubyMotion/lib")
require 'motion/project/template/ios'
require 'rubygems'
require 'motion-cocoapods'

Motion::Project::App.setup do |app|
  # Use `rake config' to see complete project settings.
  app.name = 'VeliQuest'
  app.archs['iPhoneOS'] = ['armv7']
  app.pods do
    pod 'Google-Maps-iOS-SDK'
  end
end

[Christopher Pappas]

Hey Rocky,

You're missing the system libs and frameworks:

 app.resources_dirs << 'vendor/GoogleMaps.framework/Resources'
  app.frameworks += %w{AVFoundation CoreData CoreLocation CoreText GLKit ImageIO OpenGLES QuartzCore SystemConfiguration}
  app.libs       += %w{/usr/lib/libicucore.dylib /usr/lib/libc++.dylib /usr/lib/libz.dylib}

Those have to be there.

I would recommend just working from Watsons project because you have to hand-edit the .bridgesupport file in the googlemaps.framework folder.  

(If anyone has a work-around so that hand-editing is no longer necessary I would love to hear it -- its hard to keep up with GM updates if you can't rely on the bridgesupport generator.)

[Rocky Signavong]

Ok I see, I tried the Watsons project and it works fine!

I want to use GM API v3 but I wasn't confident the Watsons project was up-to-date so I turned to use GM Pods... but it seems not easy to maintain with that bridgesupport like you said...

All the features I need in my project is to : 

- display google maps, 

- put some pins/marker on it,

- geolocate myself,

- and display direction with polylines,

Do you think the GoogleMaps.framework provided with Watsons project is enough complete to accomplish all this features and not so deprecated?

Thanks for your help! I really appreciate it!

Rocky

Hey Rocky,

I actually just ported over a Google Obj-C project to demo just that:

https://github.com/damassi/RubyMotion-GoogleMapsDirectionServices

This will do exactly what you need.

[Rocky Signavong]

Wow so cool!

You save me a lot of times!

I'll try your project and come back to you if I find any issue.

Thank you so much Christopher! You are the best!

Rocky S.

When I try to build and run that project, I get this error:

Objective-C stub for message `cameraWithLatitude:longitude:zoom:' type `@@:ddf' not precompiled.

Any ideas?

Hello,

I've successfully succeed to used the new version of Google Maps iOS SDK with Pods.

Here is what I did. I hope it would be useful to everyone that want to use Google Maps iOS SDK.

As I didn't found a full answer to how to use Google Maps Pods with RubyMotion, I think it would be great share this to all of you.

Once you add Google-Maps-iOS-SDK in your Rakefile, 

you need to launch 'rake' first to downloads GoogleMaps.framework in your Pods directory. At the end it will failed, nevermind...

Then you should specify 'app.vendor_project', 'app.resources_dirs' pointed to your GoogleMaps.frameworks in your Rakefile.

And don't forget to add 'app.frameworks' and 'app.libs'.

Next, if you launch rake again, you would have wndxlori's error message:

Objective-C stub for message `cameraWithLatitude:longitude:zoom:' type `@@:ddf' not precompiled.

Then you need to edit the 'GoogleMaps.framework.bridgesupport' file in your GoogleMaps.frameworks directory included in your Pods directory,

and replace the appropriate lines like this:

http://hipbyte.myjetbrains.com/youtrack/issue/RM-44

 <arg index='0' name='latitude' declared_type='CLLocationDegrees' type='d'/>

 <retval declared_type='id' type='@'/> 

Thanks to Christopher to give me this tips.

Next, you need to delete vendor/Podfile.lock and launch 'rake clean'.

And finally 'rake' again and everything will work properly.

Rakefile

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

$:.unshift("/Library/RubyMotion/lib")

require 'motion/project/template/ios'

require 'rubygems'

require 'motion-cocoapods'

Motion::Project::App.setup do |app|

  # Use `rake config' to see complete project settings.

  app.name = 'VeliQuest'

  app.archs['iPhoneOS'] = ['armv7']

  app.pods do

    pod 'Google-Maps-iOS-SDK'

  end

  app.vendor_project('vendor/Pods/Google-Maps-iOS-SDK/GoogleMaps.framework',

    :static,

    :products    => %w{GoogleMaps},

    :headers_dir => 'Headers')

  app.resources_dirs << 'vendor/Pods/Google-Maps-iOS-SDK/GoogleMaps.framework/Resources'

  app.frameworks += %w{AVFoundation CoreData CoreLocation CoreText GLKit ImageIO OpenGLES QuartzCore SystemConfiguration}

  app.libs       += %w{/usr/lib/libicucore.dylib /usr/lib/libc++.dylib /usr/lib/libz.dylib}

end

app_delegate.rb (from Watsons project)

GOOGLE_MAP_API_KEY = "YOUR_GOOGLE_API_KEY"

class GoogleMapsController < UIViewController

  def loadView

    camera = GMSCameraPosition.cameraWithLatitude(35.689466, longitude: 139.700196, zoom: 15)

    @map_view = GMSMapView.mapWithFrame(CGRectZero, camera: camera)

    @map_view.myLocationEnabled = true

    self.view = @map_view

    marker = GMSMarker.alloc.init

    marker.position = CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(35.689466, 139.700196)

    marker.title = "Shinjuku"

    marker.snippet = "Japan"

    marker.map = @map_view

  end

end

class AppDelegate

  def application(application, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:launchOptions)

    GMSServices.provideAPIKey(GOOGLE_MAP_API_KEY)

    @window = UIWindow.alloc.initWithFrame(UIScreen.mainScreen.bounds)

    @window.rootViewController = GoogleMapsController.new

    @window.makeKeyAndVisible

    true

  end

end

Happy hacking!
