I freaking LOVE the Quasar community!
One of the Quasar core team members (Yusuf) got quasar vite working with Stackblitz! Amazing.
Now you can start a Quasar project, in your browser, in seconds!
And here's Google Maps in a Quasar Project on stackblitz:
Anywho...
A friend of mine on twitter asked how we can setup Google Maps with Quasar. So here it is!
Step 1: Install Vue 3 Google Maps
npm install -S @fawmi/vue-google-maps
# or
yarn add @fawmi/vue-google-maps
Step 2: Create a Boot File
Vue Google Maps needs to "hook in" to Quasar. We can do this with a boot file!
Diving in 🤿
src/boot/google-maps.js
import { boot } from 'quasar/wrappers';
import VueGoogleMaps from '@fawmi/vue-google-maps';
export default boot(({ app }) => {
app.use(VueGoogleMaps, { // 🤿 Vue App. Please install Vue Google Maps
load: {
key: '', // 🤿 I don't have a google key, so leave it blank for now
},
});
});
Currently this file is doing... nothing. We have to tell Quasar about it, so add the following to
quasar.config.js for vite, or quasar.conf.js for webpack
module.exports = configure(function (/* ctx */) {
return {
//...
boot: ['google-maps'], // 🤿 Quasar, please run this bootfile at startup!
// ...
}
}
Note that it's important to be polite to Quasar when writing comments.
Google Maps should now be installed!
Step 2: Create a map components
Let's dive into IndexPage.vue and add in our map component to check everything is working!
<template>
<q-page>
<div style="height: calc(100vh - 50px)">
<!-- 🤿 Vue, please render the Google Map Component here -->
<GMapMap
:center="center"
:zoom="10"
/>
</div>
</q-page>
</template>
<script setup>
const center = { lat: 51.093048, lng: 6.84212 };
</script>
done!
Now let's take a squiz at a fuller example:
<template>
<q-page>
<div style="height: calc(100vh - 50px)">
<GMapMap
:center="center"
:zoom="10"
map-type-id="terrain"
>
<GMapCluster :zoomOnClick="true">
<GMapMarker
:key="index"
v-for="(m, index) in markers"
:position="m.position"
:clickable="true"
:draggable="true"
@click="center = m.position"
/>
</GMapCluster>
</GMapMap>
</div>
</q-page>
</template>
<script setup>
const center = { lat: 51.093048, lng: 6.84212 };
const markers = [
{
position: {
lat: 51.093048,
lng: 6.84212,
},
},
{
position: {
lat: 51.198429,
lng: 6.69529,
},
},
{
position: {
lat: 51.165218,
lng: 7.067116,
},
},
{
position: {
lat: 51.09256,
lng: 6.84074,
},
},
];
</script>
And that my fine coding friends is how you add Google Maps to a Quasar project.
Two things before I go!

2. Always Remember
Especially when times are tough and you feel like your code just won't work.
If you keep at it,
You can build anything...

Just tried to add this to my project and I'm getting the following error with the boot file: Syntax error: Importing binding name 'default' cannot be resolved by star export entries. has anyone else run into this?
I am having the same error.
I have reverted to fawmi 0.9.67 and resolved all errors. My problem is that Quasar does not recognise GMapMap - these do not seemed to have been installed. I would be grateful for any ideas, using node 18, latest quasar with vite. I had to do all these things to get no errors. I have never seen a map yet! Set up exactly like in this scenario.
Thanks Luke.
I have error in Chrome:
[Quasar] boot error: SyntaxError: The requested module '/node_modules/fast-deep-equal/index.js?v=5cc6cd74' does not provide an export named 'default'
Thanks bro, it works!!!
