A simple library that can connect your autocomplete edittext to Google's places api
Google Places AutoComplete EditText is an independent project with ongoing development and support made possible thanks to donations made by these awesome backers. If you'd like to join them, please consider:
Integrating the project is simple a refined all you need to do is follow the below steps
Step 1. Add the JitPack repository to your build file. Add it in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories:
allprojects {
repositories {
...
maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
}
}Step 2. Add the dependency
dependencies {
implementation 'com.github.mukeshsolanki:Google-Places-AutoComplete-EditText:<latest-version>'
}Okay seems like you integrated the library in your project but how do you use it? Well its really easy just add the following to your xml design
.....
<AutoCompleteTextView
android:id="@+id/autoCompleteEditText"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
.....To connect the AutoCompleteTextView to the places api create a PlaceApi object and attach it to the AutoCompleteTextView like-wise
val placesApi = PlaceAPI.Builder().apiKey("YOUR_API_KEY").build(this@MainActivity)
autoCompleteEditText.setAdapter(PlacesAutoCompleteAdapter(this, placesApi))That's pretty much it and your all wrapped up. You have successfully connected the Places Api to the AutoCompleteTextView.
To get the selected address simply set an ItemClickListener
autoCompleteEditText.onItemClickListener =
AdapterView.OnItemClickListener { parent, _, position, _ ->
val place = parent.getItemAtPosition(position) as Place
autoCompleteEditText.setText(place.description)
}
To get the details of the place selected you can set a listener to get the details
placesApi.fetchPlaceDetails("placeId", object : OnPlacesDetailsListener {
override fun onError(errorMessage: String) {
Toast.makeText(this@MainActivity, errorMessage, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
}
override fun onPlaceDetailsFetched(placeDetails: PlaceDetails) {
//TODO do anything with placeDetails object
}
})
