Integrating Google Maps VueJS Components (vue2-google-maps) into a Laravel blade view

Question

I am integrating a Google Maps Vue JS component into a Laravel application view using the vue2-google-maps npm package.

As per the npm package documentation I am loading the vue components from the npm package using:

import * as VueGoogleMaps from 'vue2-google-maps';

Vue.use(VueGoogleMaps, {
  load: {
    key: 'mapkey',
    libraries: 'places'
  }
});

I am then using the components inside the blade view with the example code from the documentation:

    <GmapMap
      :center="{lat:10, lng:10}"
      :zoom="7"
      map-type-id="terrain"
      style="width: 100%; height: 500px" 
      id="googleMap"
    >
        <GmapMarker
            :key="index"
            v-for="(m, index) in mapPoints"
            :position="m.position"
            :clickable="true"
            :draggable="true"
            @click="center=m.position"
        >
        </GmapMarker>
    </GmapMap>

However, I receive the following error:

Unknown custom element: - did you register the component correctly? For recursive components, make sure to provide the "name" option.

After some research I came across this post, that used different component names, so I tried using the alternate component names gmap-map & gmap-marker, but this resulted in the same error.

<gmap-map
  :center="center"
  :zoom="12"
  style="width:100%;  height: 400px;"
>
  <gmap-marker
    :key="index"
    v-for="(m, index) in markers"
    :position="m.position"
    @click="center=m.position"
  ></gmap-marker>
</gmap-map>

I then tried importing the Map And Marker components directly instead of all the components recursively. However, this yields the same error:

import GmapMap from 'vue2-google-maps/src/components/map';
import GmapMarker from 'vue2-google-maps/src/components/marker';

Vue.component('GmapMap', GmapMap);
Vue.component('GmapMarker', GmapMarker);

What am I doing wrong?

Components in the plugin only install when installComponents option to true.

https://github.com/xkjyeah/vue-google-maps/blob/v0.10.5/src/main.js#L69

import * as VueGoogleMaps from 'vue2-google-maps';

Vue.use(VueGoogleMaps, {
  load: {
    key: 'mapkey',
    libraries: 'places'
  },
  installComponents: true
});
