These are demos for the Google Maps Android API v2 in Kotlin. They demonstrate most of the features available in the API.

This app was written for a minSdk of 15 and the v4 support library, but it can be easily adapted to use native functionality instead. (For example replacing SupportMapFragment with MapFragment).

The Maps SDK for Android samples can be found under the gms gradle product flavor, while the Maps SDK V3 BETA samples can be found under the v3 gradle product flavor. The active product flavor can be modified through Android Studio’s “Build Variants” toolbar options.

• Android SDK v27
• Latest Android Build Tools
• Android Support Repository

This sample use the Gradle build system.

First download the samples by cloning this repository or downloading an archived snapshot. (See the options at the top of the page.)

In Android Studio, use "Open an existing Android Studio project". Next select the ApiDemos/kotlin/ directory that you downloaded from this repository. If prompted for a gradle configuration accept the default settings.

Alternatively use the gradlew build command to build the project directly.

This demo app requires that you add your own Google Maps API key:

1. Get a Maps API key
2. Create a file in the root directory called secure.properties (this file should NOT be under version control to protect your API key)
3. Add a single line to secure.properties that looks like MAPS_API_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY, where YOUR_API_KEY is the API key you obtained in the first step
4. Build and run
