Google Autocomplete

Google autocomplete widget is used to display suggestions for places, address and location as soon as the user starts typing in the given input box.

In this laravel 9 google autocomplete tutorial I’ll demonstrate you step by step process to integrate google autocomplete in laravel 9. Please follow the instructions given below:

Install Laravel 9
Get Api Key From Google
Add Route

Generate Controller by Command
Create Blade View
Run Development Server

Test This App.

Install Laravel 9

First of all we need to create a fresh laravel project, download and install Laravel 9 using the below command

composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel blog

1	composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel blog

Get Api Key From Google

Now, we need to get Google API key to enable the communication between client and Google server. Now follow the instructions given below to get Google API Key:

Visit Google Cloud Platform.
Click on the project dropdown at the top to create the project.

Click APIs & Services > Credentials.
Now, click on Create Credentials > API key.
Copy google API and store in some text file.

Now we need to enable few services, so click on Credentials > “Enable APIs and Services”, additionally enable “Maps JavaScript API” and “Places API” services.

Add Route

After this, we need to define routes in “routes/web.php” file. Lets open “routes/web.php” file and add the following routes in it.

routes/web.php

use App\Http\Controllers\GoogleController;
Route::get('auto-complete', [GoogleController::class, 'index']);

1 2	use App\Http\Controllers\GoogleController; Route::get('auto-complete', [GoogleController::class, 'index']);

Generate Controller by Command

Now, lets create a controller named GoogleController using command given below –

php artisan make:controller GoogleController

1	php artisan make:controller GoogleController

After successfully create controller go to app/controllers/GoogleController.php and put the following code :

<?php
 
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
 
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
 
class GoogleController extends Controller
{
    // ---------------- [ Load View ] ----------------
    public function index(Request $request) {
 
        return view("auto-complete");
 
    }
}

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;

class GoogleController extends Controller

{

// ---------------- [ Load View ] ----------------

public function index(Request $request) {

return view("auto-complete");

}

Create Blade view

Now, we will create a blade view file. Go to app/resources/views and create one file name auto-complete.blade.php :

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>Google Autocomplete Address Example</title>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, shrink-to-fit=no">

<label for="autocomplete"> Location/City/Address </label>

</div>

<label for="latitude"> Longitude </label>

</div>

<button type="submit" class="btn btn-success"> Submit </button>

</div>

</body>

</html>

Add Autocomplete Script.

{{-- javascript code --}}
<script src="https://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?key=AIzaSyDxTV3a6oL6vAaRookXxpiJhynuUpSccjY&libraries=places&callback=initAutocomplete" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#lat_area").addClass("d-none");
$("#long_area").addClass("d-none");
});
</script>
<script>
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);
function initialize() {
var input = document.getElementById('autocomplete');
var autocomplete = new google.maps.places.Autocomplete(input);
autocomplete.addListener('place_changed', function() {
var place = autocomplete.getPlace();
$('#latitude').val(place.geometry['location'].lat());
$('#longitude').val(place.geometry['location'].lng());
// --------- show lat and long ---------------
$("#lat_area").removeClass("d-none");
$("#long_area").removeClass("d-none");
});
}
</script>

$(document).ready(function() {

$("#lat_area").addClass("d-none");

$("#long_area").addClass("d-none");

});

</script>

google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);

function initialize() {

var input = document.getElementById('autocomplete');

var autocomplete = new google.maps.places.Autocomplete(input);

autocomplete.addListener('place_changed', function() {

var place = autocomplete.getPlace();

$('#latitude').val(place.geometry['location'].lat());

$('#longitude').val(place.geometry['location'].lng());

// --------- show lat and long ---------------

$("#lat_area").removeClass("d-none");

$("#long_area").removeClass("d-none");

});

}

</script>

Run Development Server

Now we are ready to run our example so lets start the development server using following artisan command –

php artisan serve

1	php artisan serve

Now, open the following URL in browser to see the output –

 http://localhost:8000/auto-complete
