React-google-maps: error 'google' is not defined no-undef

[jwamsterdam]

This doc: https://tomchentw.github.io/react-google-maps/basics/directions isn't working at all.

can't get around: error 'google' is not defined no-undef

I did find a solution that is partly working, e.g. using
return ( <GoogleMapLoader containerElement={mapContainer} googleMapElement={ <GoogleMap defaultZoom={12} defaultCenter={this.props.center} options={{ streetviewcontrol: false, mapTypeControl: true}}> </GoogleMap> }

But I have no idea how to match this to the tutorial with componentDidMount etc. to get it to work with the direction service. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I am one step further, see this question: https://github.com/tomchentw/react-google-maps/issues/435

@jwamsterdam - Take a look at #414

Please refer to Getting Help section in the README (or #469).

add this line to top of your file: /*global google*/-> for disable ESLint

const google=window.google solves this problem.You see this because reactjs use a linting rule that forbids unknown global variables.

What about putting it in your tsconfig?
