setCenter not working in angular2-google-maps

Question

import { GoogleMapsAPIWrapper } from \'@agm/core\';
import { Component, Input } from \'@angular/core\';

@Component({
  selector: \'core-map\',
  styleUrls: [ \'./map.co         


        

Answer 1

Finally got this working. Had to create a child component of agm-map and create an output that on load, grabs the native google maps api wrapper and passes into my parent map component. I wish they made it so you could just grab the gmaps api wrapper in the regular agm-map component. Works with panTo as well.

PARENT COMPONENT MARKUP

PARENT COMPONENT

/**
 * Map Component
 * API Docs: https://angular-maps.com/docs/api/latest/ts/
 */
import { GoogleMapsAPIWrapper } from '@agm/core';
import { Component, Input } from '@angular/core';

declare var google:any;

@Component({
  selector: 'core-map',
  styleUrls: [ './map.component.scss' ],
  templateUrl: './map.component.html',
})
export class MapComponent {
  @Input() lat: number;
  @Input() lng: number;
  @Input() locations: {};
  map: any;

  constructor(
    public gMaps: GoogleMapsAPIWrapper,
  ) {}

  public loadAPIWrapper(map) {
    this.map = map;
  }

  public markerClicked = (markerObj) => {
    const position = new google.maps.LatLng(markerObj.latitude, markerObj.longitude);
    this.map.panTo(position);
  }
}

CHILD COMPONENT

import { Component, EventEmitter, OnInit, Output } from '@angular/core';

import { GoogleMapsAPIWrapper } from '@agm/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'core-map-content',
  template: '',
})
export class MapContentComponent implements OnInit {
  @Output() onMapLoad: EventEmitter<{}> = new EventEmitter<{}>();

  constructor(public gMaps: GoogleMapsAPIWrapper) {}

  ngOnInit() {
    this.gMaps.getNativeMap().then((map) => {
      this.onMapLoad.emit(map);
    });
  }
}
