Question

I am trying to add markers to a google map created after an ajax call. I have added the js files directly to my page as noted in other SO posts. My code after the ajax request is as follows

markers = [{lat: '43.1777', lng: '-87.9944'}];
Gmaps.map = new Gmaps4RailsGoogle;
Gmaps.map.markers = markers
Gmaps.map.createServiceMarkersFromMarkers()
Gmaps.map.initialize()
Gmaps.loadMaps()

Answer 1

I understand you have a map on your page and you want to update it.

In this case, simply use:

 Gmaps.map.addMarkers(your_markers_json_array);     //this is a JS function

It’s described here.
