ngxAutocomPlace : Angular Google Places API Autocomplete Directive

Add this directive to any input to activate the google places autocomplete feature.
It uses google place API programmatically instead of the ready to use autocomplete javascript widget provided by google. This allows to handle keydown.enter events to select the first result automatically, and access the predictions for further customisations.

Tested with :

Framwork Version
Angular 8 +
Ionic 4
Angular ngx-autocom-place
Angular 8 2.0.0
Angular 9 3.0.0
Angular 10 4.0.0

Install

    npm i --save ngx-autocom-place

import NgxAutocomPlaceModule in your app module.

  • Add this to index.html
      <script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=<YourApiKey>&libraries=places&language=en"></script>

    <input type="text" ngxAutocomPlace (selectedPlace)="placeChangedCallback($event)"/>
