google-maps-react get marker position on drag end

Question

I'm trying to figure out how to retrieve the marker position when the marker is dragged. I found this : Drag marker event with callback providing lat/long?

and implemented on my app like so:

export class MapContainer extends React.Component {
  onMarkerDragEnd = evt => {
    console.log(evt);
  };

  render() {
    const style = {
      width: "100%",
      height: "300px"
    };

    let lat = this.props.lat;
    let lng = this.props.lng;

    return (
      <Map
        google={this.props.google}
        style={style}
        initialCenter={{
          lat: lat,
          lng: lng
        }}
        zoom={14}
      >
        <Marker
          onClick={this.onMarkerClick}
          draggable={true}
          onDragend={this.onMarkerDragEnd}
          name={"Current location"}
        />
      </Map>
    );
  }
}

the onMarkerDragEnd functions logs an evt object like this:

{onClick: undefined, draggable: true, onDragend: ƒ, name: 
"Currentlocation", map: Zf, …}
draggable: true
google:{maps: {…}}
map: Zf {gm_bindings_: {…}, __gm: uf, gm_accessors_: {…}, mapTypeId: 
"roadmap", center: _.K, …}
mapCenter:{lat: "37.122024", lng: "25.234458"}
name:"Current location"
onClick:undefined
onDragend:ƒ (evt)
__proto__:Object

I tried doing something like this:

onMarkerDragEnd = (evt) => {
  console.log(evt.google.maps.Marker.getPosition().lat());
}

but it return can't get position of undefined

So how do i get the position of the marker from this returned event? Thank you for your help!

The third argument to the onDragend event listener function contains the coordinates of the marker after the drag.

Example

class MapContainer extends React.Component {
  state = {
    markers: [
      {
        name: "Current position",
        position: {
          lat: 37.77,
          lng: -122.42
        }
      }
    ]
  };

  onMarkerDragEnd = (coord, index) => {
    const { latLng } = coord;
    const lat = latLng.lat();
    const lng = latLng.lng();

    this.setState(prevState => {
      const markers = [...this.state.markers];
      markers[index] = { ...markers[index], position: { lat, lng } };
      return { markers };
    });
  };

  render() {
    return (
      <Map
        google={this.props.google}
        style={{
          width: "100%",
          height: "300px"
        }}
        zoom={14}
      >
        {this.state.markers.map((marker, index) => (
          <Marker
            position={marker.position}
            draggable={true}
            onDragend={(t, map, coord) => this.onMarkerDragEnd(coord, index)}
            name={marker.name}
          />
        ))}
      </Map>
    );
  }
}

Use onDragEnd if onDragend is not working for you. onDragEnd worked for me. — Adeel Iftikhar, Apr 14 '20 at 04:56

Above answers not worked for me because onDragEnd returning undefined in my case.

onDragend={(t, map, coord) => this.onMarkerDragEnd(coord, index)}

So I find coordinates by using below line

onDragEnd={(e) => this.onMarkerDragEnd(e.nativeEvent.coordinate)}

You can find it here (Draggable Markers)

https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-maps

Simple Example

State

state = {
    region: {
      latitude: 37.78825,
      longitude: -122.4324,
      latitudeDelta: 0.0922,
      longitudeDelta: 0.0421,
    }
}

Marker

<Marker
      coordinate={this.getMapRegion()}
      draggable={true}
      onDragEnd={(e) => this.onMarkerDragEnd(e.nativeEvent.coordinate)}
      title={ "Location"}
  />

onMarkerDragEnd

onMarkerDragEnd = (coord) => {
    let newRegion = {
      latitude: parseFloat(coord.latitude),
      longitude: parseFloat(coord.longitude),
      latitudeDelta: 0.0522,
      longitudeDelta: 0.0321,
    };
    this.setState({
      region: newRegion,
    });
  };

Hope, it will help you.

i have a simple solution

<GoogleMapReact
 bootstrapURLKeys={{ key: '' }}
 defaultCenter={this.state.center}
 defaultZoom={this.state.zoom}
 yesIWantToUseGoogleMapApiInternals={true}
 onClick = {this.changeMarkerPosition}
>

then in the function

  changeMarkerPosition =(e)=>{
    this.setState({
    ...this.state,
      details:{
        ...this.state.details,
        lat:e.lat,
        lng:e.lng
      }
    })
  }

this will automatically give the latest co-ordinates and u can move ur marker accordingly by binding it to state.

I just wanted to add that onDragEnd does not work for me. Instead I needed to use onDragend with a lowercase e for the marker event as in:

<Marker
        position={marker.position}
        draggable={true}
        onDragend={(t, map, coord) => this.onMarkerDragEnd(coord, index)}
        name={marker.name}
      />

Complete Solution
getLocation() function initially get the current location and set on the map.
onMarkerDragEnd() function get the marker location when we drag to another place.

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { Map, GoogleApiWrapper, Marker } from 'google-maps-react';

class Maps extends Component {
    constructor(props) {
        super(props);
        this.state = {
            markers: [
                {
                    name: "Current position",
                    position: {
                        lat: '24.914161699999998',
                        lng: '67.082216'
                    }
                }
            ]

        }
    }

    onMarkerDragEnd = (coord, index) => {
        const { latLng } = coord;
        const lat = latLng.lat();
        const lng = latLng.lng();

        this.setState(prevState => {
            const markers = [...this.state.markers];
            markers[index] = { ...markers[index], position: { lat, lng } };
            return { markers };
        });
    }

    getLocation = () => {
        if (navigator && navigator.geolocation) {
            navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(pos => {
                const coords = pos.coords;

                let newState = Object.assign({}, this.state);
                newState.markers[0].position.lat = coords.latitude;
                newState.markers[0].position.lng = coords.longitude;

                this.setState(newState);
                console.log("map", this.state.markers[0].position.lat, this.state.markers[0].position.lng)
            });
        }
    }

    componentDidMount() {
        this.getLocation()
    }

    handleSubmit = async e => {
        e.preventDefault();

        const location = {
            latitude: this.state.markers[0].position.lat,
            longitude: this.state.markers[0].position.lng
        }

    }

    render() {
        return (

            <div>
                <Map
                    google={this.props.google}
                    style={{
                        width: "100%",
                        height: "300px"
                    }}
                    zoom={14}
                    initialCenter={{ lat: this.state.markers[0].position.lat, lng: this.state.markers[0].position.lng }}
                >
                    {this.state.markers.map((marker, index) => (
                        <Marker
                            key={index}
                            position={marker.position}
                            draggable={true}
                            onDragend={(t, map, coord) => this.onMarkerDragEnd(coord, index)}
                            name={marker.name}
                        />
                    ))}
                </Map>
                <button type="submit" onClick={this.handleSubmit} >submit</button>
            </div>
        );
    }
}

export default GoogleApiWrapper({
    apiKey: 'google api key here'
})(Maps);

centerMoved(mapProps, map) {
        console.log('args:', mapProps, map);
        console.log(map.getCenter().lat());
}
