Migration document from 1.x to 2.x is incorrect

[bjornharvold]

The document located here: https://github.com/googlemaps/js-api-loader/blob/main/MIGRATION.md is incorrect.

setOptions({
  libraries: ['maps', 'marker', 'places']
})
await importLibrary("maps");

if I then instantiate:

const placeAutoComplete = new google.maps.places.PlaceAutocompleteElement(
      autocompleteOptions,
    );

It fails with Failed to construct 'HTMLElement': Illegal constructor.

I need to specifically importLibrary("places") for it to work.

Thanks for pointing that out!

Can you check if it works when you add await customElements.whenDefined('gmp-place-autocomplete') after the await importLibrary(..)?

Nevermind, I already did, and it seems you indeed need to call importLibrary for every library before using its functionality. I'm checking if that is intended behavior.

EDIT TO ADD: This is indeed intended behavior – I'll update the documentation accordingly.
