Usage

If you are not using specific features on Google Static Map API, you just need to update GOOGLE_MAP_API_KEY value in your Django settings file. If you also need individual size map images, you can pass size and zoom parameter for each GoogleStaticMapWidget class.

Settings

In your settings.py file, add your MAP_WIDGETS config:

MAP_WIDGETS = {
    "GoogleStaticMapWidget": (
        ("zoom", 15),
        ("size", "320x320"),
    ),
    "GoogleStaticMapMarkerSettings": (
        ("color", "green"),
    )
    "GOOGLE_MAP_API_KEY": "<google-map-api-key>"
