If you use @ionic-native/google-maps, please tell the package.json (only @ionic-native/core and @ionic-native/google-maps are fine mostly)

    "@ionic-native/core": "^5.0.0-beta.21",
    "@ionic-native/google-maps": "^5.0.0-beta.25",

Current behavior:

import { Encoding } from '@ionic-native/google-maps'; Encoding.decodePath('o|qeAe}b_StkQirVcwXztA??~bVlcW') Result: TypeError: Cannot read property 'decodePath' of undefined at Function.push../node_modules/@ionic-native/google-maps/index.js.Encoding.decodePath (index.js:741)

Expected behavior: Returns ILatLng[]

this.map.one(GoogleMapsEvent.MAP_READY).then(() => {
   Encoding.decodePath('...');
});

this.map.one(GoogleMapsEvent.MAP_READY).then(() => {
   Encoding.decodePath('...');
});

It returns the same error

    this.map = GoogleMaps.create('map_canvas', {
      camera: {
        target: {
          lat: this.lat,
          lng: this.lon
        },
        zoom: 18,
        tilt: 30
      }
    })
    this.map.one(GoogleMapsEvent.MAP_READY).then(() => {
      Encoding.decodePath('o|qeAe}b_StkQirVcwXztA??~bVlcW')
    });

Unfortunately, I'm terrible busy this week. You need to wait until I'm ready, or please inspect by yourself.

It used to work correctly around 5 months ago, now the same code doesn't work anymore, even on non-beta version (tried on ionic 3 and ionic 4)

[cchvuth]

It's working with @ionic-native/google-maps@4.8.2 but not with 4.9 and latest beta

Good job 👍 Find out the problem position, then could you send a pull request?

[cchvuth]

So, I found out that v4.14.0 works as well. I compared the node module and see that on line 2474 of @ionic-native/google-maps/index.js (v4.15.1), you put GoogleMaps.getPlugin().Encoding.decodePath(encoded, precision); When I change this line to GoogleMaps.getPlugin().geometry.encoding.decodePath(encoded, precision); it works like a charm.

Thank you for pointing out. I fixed the code.

[HectorVegaD]

Hey the code still isn't fixed from what I can tell. You changed it to:

Partial / Incorrect Fix: return GoogleMaps.getPlugin().encoding.decodePath(encoded, precision); - just making 'e' lowercase, you still need to add the '.geometry.e' part like cchvuth pointed out.

Full Fix: return GoogleMaps.getPlugin().geometry.encoding.decodePath(encoded, precision);

Got lost for a while after applying your changes, decided to console log the .getPlugin() call and noticed encoding is inside geometry object. Anyway I might be wrong, I'm still new to trying to understand complex code.

This issue is still with us in version 5.5.0. Only GoogleMaps.getPlugin().geometry.encoding.decodePath(encoded) works.
