Google Maps geometry library in Node.js

Question

I'm having a lot of trouble integrating the Google Maps API into Node.js. I'm currently using the node-googlemaps library.

However, I can't seem to be able to use the Google Maps geometry library specifically within this API.

So far I've gotten the directions API working. I would like to construct a polyline from the result of directions response, and then see if the polyline contains coordinates.

I guess the geometry API isn't 100% necessary, but it's something that I know would work if I could just get it working through Node.

Thank you!

The spherical-geometry-js library ports the Google Maps geometry API, so you could use it alongside node-googlemaps in your code. (Disclaimer: I'm the author of spherical-geometry-js.)
