Google Places autocompleting address search controller

GooglePlacesSearchController

A simple Google Places API autocompleting address search controller (subclass of UISearchController) for iOS devices.

GooglePlacesSearchController is 100% Swift 4, and is a fork of GooglePlacesAutocomplete.

No attempt has been made to integrate MapKit since displaying Google Places on a non-Google map is against their terms of service.

Requirements

iOS 8.0+ Xcode 8.0+ / Swift 4.0

Installation

GooglePlacesSearchController is available through CocoaPods. To install it, simply add the following line to your Podfile:

pod 'GooglePlacesSearchController'

Usage

To run the example project, clone the repo, and run pod install from the Example directory first.

To integrate GooglePlacesSearchController in your code the simplest way would be:

let controller = GooglePlacesSearchController(delegate: self,
                                              apiKey: GoogleMapsAPIServerKey,
                                              placeType: .address
    // Optional: coordinate: CLLocationCoordinate2D(latitude: 55.751244, longitude: 37.618423),
    // Optional: radius: 10,
    // Optional: strictBounds: true,
    // Optional: searchBarPlaceholder: "Start typing..."
)

And then add controller's searchbar controller.searchBar to your view.

To get selected place use viewController(didAutocompleteWith:) delegate method:

extension ViewController: GooglePlacesAutocompleteViewControllerDelegate {
    func viewController(didAutocompleteWith place: PlaceDetails) {
        print(place.description)
        placesSearchController.isActive = false
    }
}

Allow the user to enter text that doesn't match a result

As per the Google Calendar app on iOS, if the user types in, say "Bob's House", and there isn't a relevant result, the user can press Done on the keyboard and that text based result will be used.

Update the keyboard return key type and delegate to handle a manual string result.

Powered by Google not showing

The Library is working without any problem, Awesome Library it is. Nice work Done.
I need Powered by Google Logo as the Footer for TableView.

I tried to access any of the property which is related to the tableView in My own ViewController. [Couldn't access any of it].

Then I tried messing up with the code in the File GooglePlacesSearchController.swift
but couldn't see any success.

Though there is a png file in Resources folder, already there "[email protected]" but how to use it like the screenshot you posted in the Readme of the Library .??

Thanks in advance.

Add SPM Support

Version 0.2.2 not in CocoaPods

It looks like the version 0.2.2 is not pushed to CocoaPods. I'm getting error when trying to install version 0.2.2.

My pod file looks like,
pod 'GooglePlacesSearchController', '0.2.2'

My error looks like,

[!] CocoaPods could not find compatible versions for pod "GooglePlacesSearchController":
  In Podfile:
    GooglePlacesSearchController (= 0.2.2)

None of your spec sources contain a spec satisfying the dependency: `GooglePlacesSearchController (= 0.2.2)`.

You have either:
 * out-of-date source repos which you can update with `pod repo update` or with `pod install --repo-update`.
 * mistyped the name or version.
 * not added the source repo that hosts the Podspec to your Podfile.

Note: as of CocoaPods 1.0, `pod repo update` does not happen on `pod install` by default.

I tried doing pod repo update but no luck.

Search bar Position

Hey,
In my project, i have to show search bar below to the navigation bar. How can i modify this. Please suggest.

Thanks!!

zip code or postal code are always empty

can you return back the zip code or postal code, i need to have one of these values

Search bar does not appear but the result table exist

Filter by country

Is there a way to only show results from the United States?

can you add handling when viewController is closed

i need to handle the search closed or dismissed

Debounce the search field input or use sessions

If the user is typing quickly, multiple requests are made to the /place/autocomplete endpoint. As Google charges per request, might be good to debounce or filter the keyboard input so that requests are made as soon as the user stops typing.

Alternatively, looking at the pricing page https://developers.google.com/places/web-service/usage-and-billing, it appears that a session can be used such that the /autocomplete request is free, and only the /details request is billed.

Get result of delegate in user language

if the search is in arabic/hebrew the result will still be in English, please add a parameter let us change the result's language

Adding within view is jumping when searching the place

I have added searchcontroller to view but when i search it changes its position and after completing search it backs to original position.

    self.view.addSubview((placesSearchController.searchBar))

Please check attached screenshot for reference

Add filter in GooglePlacesSearchController

How can I add a search Filter like this

 // Specify a filter.
        let filter = GMSAutocompleteFilter()
        filter.type = .address
        filter.country = "IN"
        autocompleteController.autocompleteFilter = filter

in GooglePlacesSearchController Please suggest?
