🎥 Demo

Here's how custom_marker_builder works in a real app:

Usage

1. Import the package

import 'package:custom_marker_builder/custom_marker_builder.dart';

2. Create a widget for your marker

class CustomMarkerWidget extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Container(
      padding: const EdgeInsets.all(8),
      decoration: BoxDecoration(
        color: Colors.white,
        borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(12),
        boxShadow: [BoxShadow(blurRadius: 4, color: Colors.black26)],
      ),
      child: Row(
        mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min,
        children: [
          Icon(Icons.local_gas_station, color: Colors.green, size: 30),
          SizedBox(width: 4),
          Text("₦640", style: TextStyle(fontWeight: FontWeight.bold)),
        ],
      ),
    );
  }
}

3. Convert the widget to a marker icon

// Convert to BitmapDescriptor
final markerIcon = await CustomMapMarkerBuilder.fromWidget(
  context: context,
  marker: CustomMarkerWidget()
);

// Create marker
final marker = Marker(
  markerId: MarkerId('myMarker'),
  position: LatLng(6.5244, 3.3792),
  icon: markerIcon,
);

4. Add to Google Maps

GoogleMap(
  initialCameraPosition: CameraPosition(
    target: LatLng(6.5244, 3.3792),
    zoom: 12,
  ),
  markers: {marker},
)
