ReferenceError: GoogleMaps is not defined

[therealrobster]

Hi there,

I've just tried installing your package, am excited to take it for a spin.

I performed the default install into my app via: meteor add dburles:google-maps

I checked it's installed by using: meteor list and the following was retrieved:

• autopublish 1.0.4 (For prototyping only) Publish the entire database to all clients
• blaze-html-templates 1.0.1 Compile HTML templates into reactive UI with Meteor Blaze
• dburles:google-maps 1.1.5 Google Maps Javascript API v3
• ecmascript 0.1.6 Compiler plugin that supports ES2015+ in all .js files
• es5-shim 4.1.14 Shims and polyfills to improve ECMAScript 5 support
• insecure 1.0.4 (For prototyping only) Allow all database writes from the client
• jquery 1.11.4 Manipulate the DOM using CSS selectors
• meteor-base 1.0.1 Packages that every Meteor app needs
• mobile-experience 1.0.1 Packages for a great mobile user experience
• mongo 1.1.3 Adaptor for using MongoDB and Minimongo over DDP
• session 1.1.1 Session variable
• standard-minifiers 1.0.2 Standard minifiers used with Meteor apps by default.
• tracker 1.0.9 Dependency tracker to allow reactive callbacks

I have the following in my JS code only:

if (Meteor.isClient) {
  Template.map.helpers({
      //helpers go here
     });

  Template.map.events({
   //events go here
  });
}

if (Meteor.isServer) {
  Meteor.startup(function () {
    // code to run on server at startup
    GoogleMaps.load();
  });
}

When I try and run the code though, this is what happens:

So the error at line 21:5 is: GoogleMaps.load();

Can you see anything I'm doing incorrectly? I'd love to make a start with the maps tools but am stuck at the start.

Many thanks.

Hey the problem there is that GoogleMaps is client side only

Well that's a bit embarrassing but thank you for replying (and so quickly). I'm very new to Meteor and javascript in general so I appreciate your help. Thanks so much, that worked perfectly. Hopefully this will help another beginner in the future.

Thanks again. Rob

No problem
