We don't need a license file for every sample/tutorial. It's enough to have the LICENSE at the repo root.
Google Maps Android API Demos
These are demos for the Google Maps Android API v2. They demonstrate most of the features available in the API.
This app was written for a minSdk of 9 and the v4 support library, but it can be easily adapted to
use native functionality instead.
(For example replacing SupportMapFragment with MapFragment.)
Pre-requisites
- Android SDK v23
- Latest Android Build Tools
- Android Support Repository
Getting Started
This sample use the Gradle build system.
First download the samples by cloning this repository or downloading an archived snapshot. (See the options at the top of the page.)
In Android Studio, use the "Import non-Android Studio project" or "Import Project" option. Next select the ApiDemos/ directory that you downloaded from this repository. If prompted for a gradle configuration accept the default settings.
Alternatively use the "gradlew build" command to build the project directly.
Don't forget to add your API key to the file debug/values/google_maps_api.xml for your debug keystore.
