Flutter MapHero #
This Flutter plugin allows to show embedded interactive and customizable
vector maps as a Flutter widget.
This project is a fork
of flutter-mapbox-gl,
replacing its usage of Mapbox GL libraries with the open
source MapHero libraries.
The repository has been transferred to
the MapHero
organization. You shouldn't see any negative effects, as GitHub automatically
redirects references from the old URL to the new URL. Please
see #221 for
more information.
Supported Platforms #
Support for web through maplibre-gl-js
Support for android and iOS through maplibre-native
This project only supports a subset of the API exposed by these libraries.

Get Started #
Add as a dependency
Add maphero to your project by running this command:
flutter pub add maphero
copied to clipboard
or add it directly as a dependency to your pubspec.yaml file:
dependencies:
maphero: ^0.0.3

iOS #
There is no specific setup for iOS needed any more to use the package.
If you added specific lines in an earlier version, you'll have to remove them
or your project won't build.

Use the location feature
If you access your users' location, you should also add the following key
to ios/Runner/Info.plist to explain why you need access to their location
data:
<dict>
<key>NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription</key>
<string>[Your explanation here]</string>
</dict>
copied to clipboard
A possible explanation could be: "Shows your location on the map".
Android #
There is no specific setup for android needed to use the package.
Use the location feature
If you want to show the user's location on the map you need to add
the ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION or ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION permission in the
application manifest android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml.:
<manifest>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION"/>
</manifest>
copied to clipboard
Starting from Android API level 23 you also need to request it at runtime. This
plugin does not handle this for you. Our example app uses the
flutter "location" plugin for this.
Web #
Include the following JavaScript and CSS files in the <head> of
your web/index.html file:
<script src='https://unpkg.com/maplibre-gl@^4.3/dist/maplibre-gl.js'></script>
<link href='https://unpkg.com/maplibre-gl@^4.3/dist/maplibre-gl.css'
rel='stylesheet'/>

Map Styles #
Map styles can be supplied by setting the styleString in the MapHeroMap
constructor. The following formats are supported:
Passing the URL of the map style. This should be a custom map style served
remotely using a URL that start with http(s)://
Passing the style as a local asset. Create a JSON file in the assets and
add a reference in pubspec.yml. Set the style string to the relative path
for this asset in order to load it into the map.
Passing the style as a local file. create an JSON file in app directory (e.g.
ApplicationDocumentsDirectory). Set the style string to the absolute path of
this JSON file.
Passing the raw JSON of the map style. This is only supported on Android.
Tile sources requiring an API key #
If your tile source requires an API key, we recommend directly specifying a
source url with the API key included.
For example:
https://tiles.example.com/{z}/{x}/{y}.vector.pbf?api_key={your_key}

Common problems & frequent questions #
Loading .mbtiles tile files or sprites/glyphs from the assets shipped with the app #
Click here to expand / hide.
One approach that has been used successfully to do that is to copy the files
from the app's assets directory to another directory, e.g. the app's cache
directory, and then reference that location.
See e.g. issues https://github.com/idealprojects/maphero-flutter/flutter-maplibre-gl/issues/338
and https://github.com/idealprojects/maphero-flutter/flutter-maplibre-gl/issues/318

iOS app crashes when using location based features #
Click here to expand / hide.
Please include the NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription as
described here
Layer is not displayed on IOS, but no error #
Click here to expand / hide.
Have a look in your LayerProperties object, if you supply a lineColor
argument, (or any color argument) the issue might come from here.
Android supports the following format : 'rgba(192, 192, 255, 1.0)', but on
iOS, this doesn't work!
You have to have the color in the following format : #C0C0FF
iOS crashes with error: 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: 'Invalid filter value: filter property must be a string' #
Click here to expand / hide.
Check if one of your expression is : ["!has", "value"]. Android support this
format, but iOS does not.
You can replace your expression with : ["!",["has", "value"] ] which works
both in Android and iOS.
Note : iOS will display the
error : NSPredicate: Use of 'mgl_does:have:' as an NSExpression function is forbidden,
but it seems like the expression still works well.
