[google_maps_flutter] Add onPoiTap callback to GoogleMap #10963

AsimRoyChowdhury · 2026-02-04T15:18:51Z

This PR adds support for detecting taps on the base map's Points of Interest.

Issue: Fixes flutter/flutter#60695

Changes:

platform_interface: Added PointOfInterest type, MapPoiTapEvent, and onPoiTap stream definition.
android: Implemented OnPoiClickListener in GoogleMapController and wired the event to the method channel.
ios: Implemented GMSMapViewDelegate POI tap handling and forwarded events to Dart.
app-facing package: Exposed onPoiTap in the GoogleMap widget and GoogleMapController.
example: Added a new "Place POI" example page to demonstrate the feature.

Fixes: N/A - This is a new feature.

Code Review

This pull request introduces the onPoiTap callback to the GoogleMap widget, allowing developers to handle user taps on points of interest on the map. The feature is implemented across the platform interface, Android, and iOS, with corresponding updates to the example application and tests. The changes involve adding new event types, updating platform-specific listeners, and exposing the new callback in the app-facing widget. My review includes suggestions for improving code clarity, test robustness, and fixing a critical dependency issue.

  flutter:
    sdk: flutter
-  google_maps_flutter_platform_interface: ^2.13.0
+  google_maps_flutter_platform_interface: ^2.14.0


The google_maps_flutter_platform_interface version should be ^2.15.0 to match the version in which onPoiTap support was added. The current version ^2.14.0 will cause dependency conflicts or build failures since this package uses types introduced in 2.15.0.

google_maps_flutter_platform_interface: ^2.15.0

Using Log.e for debugging messages is not recommended as it implies an error has occurred and can clutter error logs. For debugging purposes, it's better to use Log.d or Log.v. These temporary debug logs should be removed before merging.

+  public void onPoiClick_SendsMethodCall() {
+    PointOfInterest poi = new PointOfInterest(new LatLng(1.0, 2.0), "placeId", "name");
+
+    // controller is the instance of GoogleMapController in your test file
+    controller.onPoiClick(poi);
+
+    // Verify the messenger sent the message to the correct channel
+    verify(binaryMessenger).send(
+        eq("plugins.flutter.io/google_maps_0"), 
+        any(ByteBuffer.class), 
+        any(BinaryMessenger.BinaryReply.class));
+  }


This test only verifies that a message is sent on the binary messenger, but it doesn't check the content of the message. A more robust test would be to use a mock MapsCallbackApi and verify that onPoiTap is called with the correct data. This ensures that the data is correctly constructed and passed to the Pigeon API.

Here's an example of how you could improve it:

@Test public void onPoiClick_sendsCorrectData() { // Assuming 'controller' and 'flutterApi' are set up as in other tests. PointOfInterest poi = new PointOfInterest(new LatLng(1.0, 2.0), "placeId", "name"); controller.onPoiClick(poi); ArgumentCaptor<Messages.PlatformPointOfInterest> poiCaptor = ArgumentCaptor.forClass(Messages.PlatformPointOfInterest.class); verify(flutterApi).onPoiTap(poiCaptor.capture(), any(Messages.VoidResult.class)); Messages.PlatformPointOfInterest capturedPoi = poiCaptor.getValue(); assertEquals("name", capturedPoi.getName()); assertEquals("placeId", capturedPoi.getPlaceId()); assertEquals(1.0, capturedPoi.getPosition().getLatitude(), 1e-6); assertEquals(2.0, capturedPoi.getPosition().getLongitude(), 1e-6); }

The POIClickCallback typedef appears to be unused in the codebase. To maintain code cleanliness, please remove it.

Thanks for the contribution!

I read the [Contributor Guide] and followed the process outlined there for submitting PRs.

This needs to follow our documented process for changing federated plugins, so that CI works.

Please also be sure to review the feedback on the previous PR, especially this comment, and update accordingly. Even if this PR doesn't include web support (although it would be preferable if it did, especially since there is a previous PR to draw on), it does need to be designed in such a way as to not cause this problem for web later.

+    );
+
+    // 🔥 IMPORTANT: Wait for the map initialization (onMapCreated) to complete
+    await tester.pumpAndSettle();


pumpAndSettle is for waiting for rendering to complete, not for arbitrary specific tasks. The way to wait for onMapCreated to complete is to have a future that completes when onMapCreated is called, and then wait for that. It is important that tests not be flaky because they are using delays as a proxy for waiting for specific conditions.

Please review the package again. I have done the following works:

Revamped the code as per the review of @stuartmorgan-g and @gemini_code_assist

Added Support for flutter web for onPoiTap Callback

Added Integration test for onPoiTap

Updated Version for the google_maps_flutter_web package

Thank you for addressing the feedback regarding the pumpAndSettle usage. The updated test now correctly waits for onMapCreated to complete using a Completer, which is a much more robust approach.

I've left some initial feedback.

This is not the first time I've had to point out that previous feedback has not been addressed. Please ensure that you either address feedback, or ask for clarification if necessary, before requesting review again.

This should return an empty stream, not throw, to avoid breaking existing implementations.

My previous comment has not been addressed. This is still returning an inflated POI rather than an ID.

Code Review

This pull request introduces onPoiTap support for the GoogleMap widget, enabling tap detection on Points of Interest across Android, iOS, and web. The changes are well-implemented, touching the platform interface, all three platform implementations, and adding a new example page with tests. My review includes a minor code simplification suggestion and points out several patch-related artifact files that should be removed to maintain repository cleanliness. Overall, this is a great feature addition.
