getter/setter pair
desiredAccuracy ↔ LocationAccuracy?
Desired accuracy passed to Geolocator when fetching the current device position.
getter/setter pair
geocoding ↔ GeocodingService

getter/setter pair
hashCode int
The hash code for this object.
no setterinherited
hasListeners bool
Whether any listeners are currently registered.

getter/setter pair
places ↔ PlacesService
The Places API (New) service used for autocomplete and place-detail lookups.
getter/setter pair

Methods

addListener(VoidCallback listener) → void
Register a closure to be called when the object changes.
inherited
dispose() → void
Discards any resources used by the object. After this is called, the object is not in a usable state and should be discarded (calls to addListener will throw after the object is disposed).
override
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic
Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.
inherited
notifyListeners() → void
Call all the registered listeners.
inherited
removeListener(VoidCallback listener) → void
Remove a previously registered closure from the list of closures that are notified when the object changes.
inherited
setCameraPosition(CameraPosition? newPosition) → void
Stores newPosition as the current camera position without notifying listeners (called in the hot camera-move path).
setMapType(MapType mapType, {bool notify = false}) → void
Sets mapType directly. Pass notify: true to also call notifyListeners.
setPrevCameraPosition(CameraPosition? prePosition) → void
Stores prePosition as the previous camera position without notifying listeners (called in the hot camera-move path).
switchMapType() → void
Advances mapType to the next value in MapType.values, skipping MapType.none, and notifies listeners.
toString() String
A string representation of this object.
inherited
updateCurrentLocation({bool gracefully = false}) Future<void>
Resolves the device's current GPS position and stores it in currentPosition.

Operators

operator ==(Object other) bool
The equality operator.
