Using initMap and initAutocomplete on same html page google maps

Question

I have a webpage where I would like to use both place autocomplete as well as google map with marker. User can search for an address in place autocomplete. Lat-long data for marker comes from DB and this doesn't change. The problem is either map works or place autocomplete, but not both, and the issue is related to callbacks.

From google docs, I've included both callbacks in separate API calls:

<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=[API KEY]&signed_in=true&libraries=places&callback=initAutocomplete" async defer></script>
<script async defer src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=[API KEY]&callback=initMap"></script>

But this throws error on console, and nothing works.

Error: You have included the Google Maps API multiple times on this page. This may cause unexpected errors.

My question is: How multiple callbacks can be passed to Google API?

Answer 1

You can't add multiple callbacks (and you shouldn't include the API more than once). Put all the code in a single callback.

<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=[API KEY]&signed_in=true&libraries=places&callback=initialize" async defer></script>

function initialize() {
   initMap();
   initAutoComplete();
}

or see this example in the documentation

function initialize() {
  initMap();
  initAutocomplete();
}
var map, marker;

function initMap() {
    map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'), {
      center: {
        lat: -34.397,
        lng: 150.644
      },
      zoom: 8
    });
  }
  // This example displays an address form, using the autocomplete feature
  // of the Google Places API to help users fill in the information.

// This example requires the Places library. Include the libraries=places
// parameter when you first load the API. For example:
// <script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=YOUR_API_KEY&libraries=places">

var placeSearch, autocomplete;
var componentForm = {
  street_number: 'short_name',
  route: 'long_name',
  locality: 'long_name',
  administrative_area_level_1: 'short_name',
  country: 'long_name',
  postal_code: 'short_name'
};

function initAutocomplete() {
  // Create the autocomplete object, restricting the search to geographical
  // location types.
  autocomplete = new google.maps.places.Autocomplete(
    /** @type {!HTMLInputElement} */
    (document.getElementById('autocomplete')), {
      types: ['geocode']
    });

  // When the user selects an address from the dropdown, populate the address
  // fields in the form.
  autocomplete.addListener('place_changed', fillInAddress);
}

function fillInAddress() {
  // Get the place details from the autocomplete object.
  var place = autocomplete.getPlace();
  if (place.geometry.viewport) {
    map.fitBounds(place.geometry.viewport);
  } else {
    map.setCenter(place.geometry.location);
    map.setZoom(17); // Why 17? Because it looks good.
  }
  if (!marker) {
    marker = new google.maps.Marker({
      map: map,
      anchorPoint: new google.maps.Point(0, -29)
    });
  } else marker.setMap(null);
  marker.setOptions({
    position: place.geometry.location,
    map: map
  });

  for (var component in componentForm) {
    document.getElementById(component).value = '';
    document.getElementById(component).disabled = false;
  }

  // Get each component of the address from the place details
  // and fill the corresponding field on the form.
  for (var i = 0; i < place.address_components.length; i++) {
    var addressType = place.address_components[i].types[0];
    if (componentForm[addressType]) {
      var val = place.address_components[i][componentForm[addressType]];
      document.getElementById(addressType).value = val;
    }
  }
}

// Bias the autocomplete object to the user's geographical location,
// as supplied by the browser's 'navigator.geolocation' object.
function geolocate() {
  if (navigator.geolocation) {
    navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(position) {
      var geolocation = {
        lat: position.coords.latitude,
        lng: position.coords.longitude
      };
      var circle = new google.maps.Circle({
        center: geolocation,
        radius: position.coords.accuracy
      });
      autocomplete.setBounds(circle.getBounds());
    });
  }
}
