Trying to use PlacesService

[s-khan-net]

Hi, Thanks for this plugin Looking at the geocode example plugin.google.maps.Geocoder.geocode(request, function(results) { , I tried using google PlacesService like

           var request = {
                    location: center,
                    radius: 8000,
                    type: ['store']
                };
            plugin.google.maps.PlacesService.radarSearch(request, function(results) {
                alert(results.length);
            });

Should I do something in the config file or am I missing something in code? PS. I'm using PhoneGap Build

**Sorry, I had not seen the code, I guess PlacesService or AutoComplete are not implemented

Is there a possibility of getting this?**

The only way you can get PlacesService to work would be to instantiate a map using google mapsjavascript libraries, not this plugin. While Google recently released native API's for places, I don't believe that it is in the scope of this project to implement them.

Yes thank you But again is it possible to call the placeservice from JS and use the results on this map If so, this will increase the JavaScript API quota, wouldn't it?

It is possible to call placeService from js and use the results on the plugin map. I believe the placeServices api has it's own quota separate from any map calls, but you are correct using a javascript map with the plugin map will increase the calls.

Thank you I hope this plugin gets an upgrade Thanks again

Could you make it? 'cause the service is attached to the map var service = new google.maps.places.PlacesService(map);

I decided to start fundraising for creating another plugin of Google Places API. https://github.com/mapsplugin/cordova-plugin-googlemaps/issues/1888
