To set up a map to follow a trip in iOS, complete the following steps:
Step 1: Initialize the map view
To follow a trip, you must initialize a map view.
The following example shows how to initialize GMTCMapView.
Swift
/*
* MapViewController.swift
*/
class ViewController: UIViewController, GMTCMapViewDelegate {
private var rideSharingMap: GMTCMapView?
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
self.rideSharingMap = GMTCMapView(frame: UIScreen.main.bounds)
self.rideSharingMap.delegate = self
self.rideSharingMap?.settings.myLocationButton = true
self.view.addSubview(self.rideSharingMap!)
...
}
}
Objective-C
/*
* MapViewController.h
*/
@interface MapViewController : UIViewController<GMTCMapViewDelegate>
...
@end
/*
* MapViewController.m
*/
@implementation MapViewController
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
...
self.mapView = [[GMTCMapView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero];
self.mapView.settings.myLocationButton = YES;
self.mapView.delegate = self;
...
}
...
@end
Step 2: Handle map view events
Now that you've initialized the map view, here's how to implement a delegate to handle map view event changes as the vehicle progresses along its journey.
Swift
func mapViewDidInitialize(_ mapview: GMTCMapView) {
// Handle the update to the state of the map view to browsing.
}
func mapView(_ mapView: GMSMapView, didTapConsumerMarker mapMarker: GMSMarker, markerType: GMTCMapViewMarkerType) -> Bool {
// Handle the mapView marker was tapped.
}
Objective-C
/*
* MapViewController.m
*/
#pragma mark - GMTCMapViewDelegate implementation
// Handle state update of map view.
- (void)mapViewDidInitializeCustomerState:(GMTCMapView *)mapview {
// Handle the update to the state of the map view to browsing.
}
- (void)mapView:(GMSMapView *)mapView
didTapConsumerMarker:(nonnull GMSMarker *)mapMarker
markerType:(GMTCMapViewMarkerType)markerType {
// Handle the mapView marker was tapped.
}
