Eleventy Plugin - Google Static Maps

This simple plugin adds an Eleventy shortcode for Google Static Maps. This service lets you add simple Google Maps images to your site without needing a JavaScript client in order to render it.

The maps are static (hence the name) but perfect for adding simple maps to your site.

Installation:

First, install the plugin:

npm i eleventy-plugin-googlestaticmaps

Then add it to your .eleventy.js:

const mapPlugin = require('eleventy-plugin-googlestaticmap');

Then to use it, get your key from Google's console and pass it to the plugin:

const GOOGLE_MAPS_KEY = process.env.GOOGLE_MAPS_KEY;

module.exports = function(eleventyConfig) {

	eleventyConfig.addPlugin(mapPlugin, {
		key:GOOGLE_MAPS_KEY
	});

};

Usage

The shortcode staticmap is now available in your templates. The arguments are:
