Google Place AutoComplete In SwiftUI - swift

Question

I am integrating Google Places in my SwiftUI app. I have searched a lot but didn't get any proper result for SwiftUI. I tried the solution in the comments of place autocomplete but didn't get my desired work.
I want:
I tried the following solution which helped me a lot to get my desired work but there is an issue with this is that for every location I searched, I got that location but the latitude and longitude always comes -180 for all locations.
Here is my code for View:
import SwiftUI
import GooglePlaces
struct MyGooglePlace: View {
#State var openPlacePicker = false
#State var address = ""
var body: some View {
VStack {
Text(address)
Button {
openPlacePicker.toggle()
} label: {
Text("open place picker")
}
}.sheet(isPresented: $openPlacePicker) {
PlacePicker(address: $address)
}
}
}
And the PlacePicker is:
import Foundation
import UIKit
import SwiftUI
import GooglePlaces
struct PlacePicker: UIViewControllerRepresentable {
func makeCoordinator() -> GooglePlacesCoordinator {
GooglePlacesCoordinator(self)
}
#Environment(\.presentationMode) var presentationMode
#Binding var address: String
func makeUIViewController(context: UIViewControllerRepresentableContext<PlacePicker>) -> GMSAutocompleteViewController {
let autocompleteController = GMSAutocompleteViewController()
autocompleteController.delegate = context.coordinator
let fields: GMSPlaceField = GMSPlaceField(rawValue: UInt(GMSPlaceField.name.rawValue) |
UInt(GMSPlaceField.placeID.rawValue))
autocompleteController.placeFields = fields
let filter = GMSAutocompleteFilter()
filter.type = .address
autocompleteController.autocompleteFilter = filter
return autocompleteController
}
func updateUIViewController(_ uiViewController: GMSAutocompleteViewController, context: UIViewControllerRepresentableContext<PlacePicker>) {
}
class GooglePlacesCoordinator: NSObject, UINavigationControllerDelegate, GMSAutocompleteViewControllerDelegate {
var parent: PlacePicker
init(_ parent: PlacePicker) {
self.parent = parent
}
func viewController(_ viewController: GMSAutocompleteViewController, didAutocompleteWith place: GMSPlace) {
DispatchQueue.main.async {
print(place.description.description as Any)
self.parent.address = place.name!
self.parent.presentationMode.wrappedValue.dismiss()
print("latitude: \(place.coordinate.latitude)")
print("longitude: \(place.coordinate.longitude)")
}
}
func viewController(_ viewController: GMSAutocompleteViewController, didFailAutocompleteWithError error: Error) {
print("Error: ", error.localizedDescription)
}
func wasCancelled(_ viewController: GMSAutocompleteViewController) {
parent.presentationMode.wrappedValue.dismiss()
}
}
}
If I searched for some place in USA, it gives the coordinates -180, -180, and if I search for some location in Pakistan, it still gives -180, -180 coordinates.
Does anyone knows how to get the exact coordinates of the searched location?

Here I am posting a complete solution.
import SwiftUI
import GooglePlaces
struct PlacesViewControllerBridge: UIViewControllerRepresentable {
var onPlaceSelected: (GMSPlace) -> ()
//var selectedPlaceByFilter: GMSPlace
func makeUIViewController(context: UIViewControllerRepresentableContext<PlacesViewControllerBridge>) -> GMSAutocompleteViewController {
let uiViewControllerPlaces = GMSAutocompleteViewController()
uiViewControllerPlaces.delegate = context.coordinator
let fields: GMSPlaceField = GMSPlaceField(rawValue: UInt(GMSPlaceField.name.rawValue) |
UInt(GMSPlaceField.placeID.rawValue))
uiViewControllerPlaces.placeFields = fields
return uiViewControllerPlaces
}
func updateUIViewController(_ uiViewController: UIViewControllerType, context: Context) {
}
func makeCoordinator() -> PlacesViewAutoCompleteCoordinator {
return PlacesViewAutoCompleteCoordinator(placesViewControllerBridge: self)
}
final class PlacesViewAutoCompleteCoordinator: NSObject, GMSAutocompleteViewControllerDelegate {
var placesViewControllerBridge: PlacesViewControllerBridge
init(placesViewControllerBridge: PlacesViewControllerBridge) {
self.placesViewControllerBridge = placesViewControllerBridge
}
func viewController(_ viewController: GMSAutocompleteViewController, didAutocompleteWith place: GMSPlace)
{
print("Place name: \(place.name ?? "Default Place")")
print("Place ID: \(place.placeID ?? "Default PlaceID")")
print("Place attributions: \(String(describing: place.attributions))")
viewController.dismiss(animated: true)
self.placesViewControllerBridge.onPlaceSelected(place)
}
func viewController(_ viewController: GMSAutocompleteViewController, didFailAutocompleteWithError error: Error)
{
print("Error: ", error.localizedDescription)
}
func wasCancelled(_ viewController: GMSAutocompleteViewController) {
print("Place prediction window cancelled")
viewController.dismiss(animated: true)
}
func didUpdateAutocompletePredictions(_ viewController: GMSAutocompleteViewController) {
UIApplication.shared.isNetworkActivityIndicatorVisible = true
}
func didRequestAutocompletePredictions(_ viewController: GMSAutocompleteViewController) {
UIApplication.shared.isNetworkActivityIndicatorVisible = false
}
}
}
Below is the usage in the custom text field.
CustomTextFieldWithEditing(
placeHolderText: "Enter your Location",
text: $tempLocation,
errorMessage: $isCsLocationMessage,
isError: $isCsLocationError,
isSecure: false,
action: {
isPresent = true
}
).textFieldStyle(CustomTextFieldStyle(icon: Image(systemName: "location.circle.fill")))
.sheet(isPresented: $isPresent) {
PlacesViewControllerBridge(onPlaceSelected: {
place in
tempLocation = place.name ?? "Please select your location"
selectedGMSPlace = place
isCsLocationError = false
})
}
