PlaceAutocomplete

Google Places Api Implementation

After Google came up with the update that Play Services version of the Places SDK for Android (in Google Play Services 16.0.0) is deprecated as of January 29, 2019, and will be turned off on July 29, 2019. which includes PlaceAutocompleteFragment also to be removed from the library.After getting this update from google we had to immediately migrate to an alternative where we ended up creating this library, PlaceAutocompleteFragment provides you with an elegant user interface to choose a location and works the exact same as PlaceAutocompleteFragment .

Features

Custom title message for the view.

Sorted places based on your location provided you pass your location.

Radius of enclosure for search

Support for activity animation for a smooth transition

Support for landscape orientation.

This Kotlin Library is build with MVVM Archetecture and runs on top of RxJava 2. The library uses various Rx operators like debounce, throttlefirst operators to reduce network calls and optimze location query.

What's New

#1 Two different loaders attached, one for getting the list of predicted items and one for getting place details.
#2 Erase query with a close icon added to clear the text in the field.
#3 Keeps a record of Recent searches (Be Sure to add the dependency).
#4 Maintains recent searches in pretty time groups like Today, Yesterday, Earlier this week and previous searches.
#5 Internet connectivity and error handling also added wherever needed

Dependencies

Since this library is build with MVVM Architecture and uses Kotlin, RxAndroid, RxJava 2, Rx Binding,recyclerview, cardview, retrofit and various android architecture components, so you can find the dependencies here. and add them to your build.gradle file.

How it works

Configuration

Add the dependency:

dependencies {
		//copy the version from download badge above 	
	implementation 'com.opensource.oneclickaway.android.searchplaces:place_autocomplete:x.x.x'
 }

Mandatory and optional parameters :

val intent = Intent(this, SearchPlaceActivity::class.java)
    intent.putExtra(
        SearchPlacesStatusCodes.CONFIG,
        SearchPlaceActivity.Config.Builder(apiKey = "PASS YOUR API KEY HERE")
            .setSearchBarTitle("Enter Source Location")
            .setMyLocation("12.9716,77.5946")
            .setEnclosingRadius("500")
            .build()
    )

For build version greater LOLLIPOP, you can use Activity Transition like this:

val pair = Pair.create(searchLocationET as View, SearchPlacesStatusCodes.PLACEHOLDER_TRANSITION)
val options = ActivityOptions.makeSceneTransitionAnimation(this, pair).toBundle()
startActivityForResult(intent, 700, options)

#Example Kotlin Class:

import com.oneclickaway.opensource.placeautocomplete.data.api.bean.place_details.PlaceDetails
import com.oneclickaway.opensource.placeautocomplete.components.SearchPlacesStatusCodes
import com.oneclickaway.opensource.placeautocomplete.ui.SearchPlaceActivity

class ExampleLocationSearch : AppCompatActivity() {

 lateinit var searchLocationET: EditText
 lateinit var placeDetailsTV: TextView
 var REQUEST_CODE = 700

 var API_KEY = BuildConfig.ApiKey

 override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_example_location_search)

    searchLocationET = findViewById(R.id.searchLocationBTN)
    placeDetailsTV = findViewById(R.id.resultPlaceDetailsTV)

 val intent = Intent(this, SearchPlaceActivity::class.java)
	intent.putExtra(
	    SearchPlacesStatusCodes.CONFIG,
	    SearchPlaceActivity.Config.Builder(apiKey = API_KEY)
		.setSearchBarTitle("Enter Source Location")
		.setMyLocation("12.9716,77.5946")
		.setEnclosingRadius("500")
		.build()
	)

    searchLocationET.setOnClickListener {

        if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) {
            val pair = Pair.create(searchLocationET as View, SearchPlacesStatusCodes.PLACEHOLDER_TRANSITION)
            val options = ActivityOptions.makeSceneTransitionAnimation(this, pair).toBundle()
            startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_CODE, options)

        } else {
            startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_CODE)
            overridePendingTransition(R.anim.abc_fade_in, R.anim.abc_fade_out)
        }


    }


}

override fun onActivityResult(requestCode: Int, resultCode: Int, data: Intent?) {
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data)

    if (requestCode == REQUEST_CODE && resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {

        val placeDetails = data?.getParcelableExtra<PlaceDetails>(SearchPlacesStatusCodes.PLACE_DATA)

        searchLocationET.setText(placeDetails?.name)

        placeDetailsTV.text = placeDetails.toString()
        Log.i(javaClass.simpleName, "onActivityResult: ${placeDetails}  ")
    }
}
}

Usage

-Minimum sdk 15.
