Previews

Features

• Define dynamic markers with the NavigationOverlay via the MapOrNavMarkerLayer
• Display a navigator that directs users towards the marker position.
• Customize the appearance of the navigator to match the marker.

Getting started

Before using the nav_marker package, make sure you have installed and set up flutter_map in your Flutter project. If you haven't done so, please refer to the official flutter_map documentation for installation instructions.

Usage

Import the necessary packages in your Dart file:

import 'package:flutter_map/flutter_map.dart';
import 'package:latlong2/latlong.dart';
import 'package:nav_marker/map_or_nav_marker.dart';

Set up your map view using FlutterMap and specify the initial map options, following the instructions provided in the flutter_map documentation.

Then add the MapOrNavMarkerLayer to the children property of FlutterMap

FlutterMap(
    options: MapOptions( ... ),
    children: [
        TileLayer( ... ),
        MapOrNavMarkerLayer(
            mapOrNavMarkers: [
                ...
            ]
        ),
    ],
),

Caution: Make sure to place the MapOrNavMarkerLayer below the TileLayer.

Add MapOrNavMarkers in mapOrNavMarkers property within the MapOrNavMarkerLayer like so

MapOrNavMarkerLayer(
    mapOrNavMarkers: [
        MapOrNavMarker(
            navMarkerEnabled: true,
            builder: (_) => builder,
            point: point,
        ),
        MapOrNavMarker(
            navMarkerEnabled: true,
            builder: (_) => builder,
            point: point,
        ),
    ]
),

Note: The navMarkerEnabled property must be true in order for the MapOrNavMarker to be displayed, similar to a regular Marker.

Furthermore, you can customize the appearance of the Nav Marker by defining the navMarkerSettings property including an onTap function.

MapOrNavMarker(
    navMarkerEnabled: true,
    navMarkerSettings: NavMarkerSettings(
        onTap: (targetPoint) => onTap,
        arrowColor: arrowColor,
        backgroundColor: backgroundColor,
        surfaceColor: surfaceColor,
        size: size,
        child: child,
    ),
    builder: (context) => builder,
    point: point,
)

Todo-list

• ❌ Develop a version that supports Google Maps.
• ❌ Develop a version that supports integration with other packages.
