##How to use##

GoogleMaps component has a lot of components to utilise. They are typically passed by the state variables of the wrapping component. When a state variables is changed, the present elements in the map will be deleted, and the new elements will be inserted. The map will not be refreshed or loaded again.

<GoogleMaps 
    richMarkers={this.state.markers} 
    polygons={this.state.polygons} 
    polylines={this.state.polylines}
    arrows={this.state.arrows} 
    center={this.state.center} 
    zoom={this.state.zoom} 
    mapTypeControl={this.state.mapTypeControl} 
    elId="mapId" 
    googleMapsClassName="googleMaps"    
    direction={this.state.direction}
    onDirectionCalculatedPolylineMode={this._onDirectionCalculated}
    onClick={this._onClick}
    onRightClick={this._onRightClick}
/>

Rich Markers

GoogleMaps component internally uses an open source marker project which can be found in github at the following link :

https://github.com/googlemaps/js-rich-marker

As this component was created while developing tools for GIS operations, dynamic markers which can clearly indicate its purpose was very necessary, hence rich-markers were integrated into it.

Rich markers can be used with property "richMarkers". The typical object that should be passed into it is like :

[
  {
      content: '<div class="markerTextDiv">Start</div>',
      coordinates : {lat:40.0, lng:40.0}
  }
]

You can use anything for content. Each marker in the list will be inserted to the map. But beware, existing ones will be removed forever.
