I have to draw a route between two addresses which are written in two place autocomplete fragments. I searched for it but most code are of onclick event. I have to draw polyline based on the address written in the fragments. Can you give me a general idea on how to write a code for this?
public class MapsActivity extends FragmentActivity implements OnMapReadyCallback {
private GoogleMap mMap;
Context context;
Polyline polyline;
Marker markers;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_maps);
// Obtain the SupportMapFragment and get notified when the map is ready to be used.
SupportMapFragment mapFragment = (SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager()
.findFragmentById(R.id.map);
mapFragment.getMapAsync(this);
PlaceAutocompleteFragment autocompleteFragment = (PlaceAutocompleteFragment)
getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.place_autocomplete_fragment);
autocompleteFragment.setOnPlaceSelectedListener(new PlaceSelectionListener() {
#Override
public void onPlaceSelected(Place place) {
// TODO: Get info about the selected place.
addMarker(place);
// Log.i(TAG, "Place: " + place.getName());
String placeName = place.getName().toString();
}
#Override
public void onError(Status status) {
// TODO: Handle the error.
//Log.i(TAG, "An error occurred: " + status);
}
});
final PlaceAutocompleteFragment autocompleteFragments = (PlaceAutocompleteFragment)
getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.place_autocomplete_fragments);
autocompleteFragments.setOnPlaceSelectedListener(new PlaceSelectionListener() {
#Override
public void onPlaceSelected(Place place) {
// TODO: Get info about the selected place.
addMarker(place);
// Log.i(TAG, "Place: " + place.getName());
String placeName = place.getName().toString();
}
#Override
public void onError(Status status) {
// TODO: Handle the error.
//Log.i(TAG, "An error occurred: " + status);
}
});
}

mMap.addMarker(markerOptions);
mMap.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(p.getLatLng()));
mMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.zoomTo(9));
}
}
In my code, I have added the marker but both the search box are calling one method(addMarker). I guess that's the reason i can't get the polyline between them. I tried make to different method with same code and then add polyline but it did not work.

I'm giving you code for drawing path plus getting driving distance and travel time.

That's it!
Here is the link if you need more explanation.

You need to get the coordinates of your two addresses - Google Maps has an API library that does this. Then follow the guide to draw a polyline on your map at this link. Follow the guides at both links and you should be sorted. Hope this helps.

Use google directions API to get the waypoints between your 2 addresses.There is a Util lib by Google to help you show the "overview_polyline" from the response on the map.

Best Route between two location with multiple waypoints in Google Map Android studio

I'm making an android studio application in which a user can see the best sortest paths between two location points. I use Normal android studio map frame and SupportMapFragment to show google map.I want to find the best route in multiple waypoints.These are the file of my android application. only one issue in this project file MapsActivity.java file getmap method is not working. is there any other way develop this one?

To get map, use this:
// Obtain the SupportMapFragment and get notified when the map is ready to be used.
SupportMapFragment mapFragment = (SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager()
.findFragmentById(R.id.map);
mapFragment.getMapAsync(this);
Your activity must implement OnMapReadyCallback and override onMapReady(GoogleMap googleMap) function.
public class MapsActivity extends FragmentActivity implements OnMapReadyCallback{
.....
#Override
public void onMapReady(GoogleMap googleMap) {
mMap = googleMap;
}
}
See Getting Started guide.

Google direction route from current location to known location

I use the MapsActivity class in this project. On my map you can see many markers. I have many known locations, but in my code I just display two locations for example.
I don't understand how to use the direction API and JSON. How can I display the route, distance, and travelling time from my current location (changing) to a known location (constant)?
public class MapsActivity extends FragmentActivity {
private GoogleMap mMap; // Might be null if Google Play services APK is not available.
private Map<Marker, Class<?>> allMarkersMap = new HashMap<Marker, Class<?>>();
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_maps);
setUpMapIfNeeded();
}
private void setUpMap() {
Marker marker1 = mMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions()
.position(new LatLng(14.608177, 120.967422))
.title("Sample2")
.snippet("zzzzzzz"));
allMarkersMap.put(marker1, MainActivity.class);
Marker marker2 = mMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions()
.position(new LatLng(14.611335, 120.962160))
.title("Sample1")
.snippet("sssssss"));
allMarkersMap.put(marker2, MainActivity2Activity.class);
mMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
mMap.setOnInfoWindowClickListener(new GoogleMap.OnInfoWindowClickListener() {
#Override
public void onInfoWindowClick(Marker marker) {
Class<?> cls = allMarkersMap.get(marker);
Intent intent = new Intent(MapsActivity.this, cls);
startActivity(intent);
}
});
}

Have a look at this tutorial:
Drawing driving route directions between two locations using Google Directions in Google Map Android API V2
It shows how to draw a route map between two points, calculate distance and travel time.
If you are having problems in following the tutorial, download the Android Studio sample project from the link below:

I want to create a gps application for my university campus.. i.e buildings of my university and draw rout from my location to that building..
my university roads are not plotted on google maps
how to draw the roads and make my application.
thanks

You need to get map from this
link
You need to add own marker on map from this link
To draw route follow this link
To draw a road directions between two geocodes:

How to draw road directions between two geocodes in android google map v2?

i want to draw a road direction in android like the below image. i tried using polyline but this plots a straight lines betweens two LatLngs. How can i achieve this as same as the google map. thanks in advance.

Create one Class called "DirectionsJSONParser "
public class DirectionsJSONParser {
public List<List<HashMap<String,String>>> parse(JSONObject jObject){
List<List<HashMap<String, String>>> routes = new ArrayList<List<HashMap<String,String>>>() ;
JSONArray jRoutes = null;
JSONArray jLegs = null;
JSONArray jSteps = null;
try {
jRoutes = jObject.getJSONArray("routes");
for(int i=0;i<jRoutes.length();i++){
jLegs = ( (JSONObject)jRoutes.get(i)).getJSONArray("legs");
List path = new ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>>();
for(int j=0;j<jLegs.length();j++){
jSteps = ( (JSONObject)jLegs.get(j)).getJSONArray("steps");
for(int k=0;k<jSteps.length();k++){
String polyline = "";
polyline = (String)((JSONObject)((JSONObject)jSteps.get(k)).get("polyline")).get("points");
List<LatLng> list = decodePoly(polyline);
for(int l=0;l<list.size();l++){
HashMap<String, String> hm = new HashMap<String, String>();
hm.put("lat", Double.toString(((LatLng)list.get(l)).latitude) );
hm.put("lng", Double.toString(((LatLng)list.get(l)).longitude) );
path.add(hm);
}
}
routes.add(path);
}
}
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}catch (Exception e){
}
return routes;
}
private List<LatLng> decodePoly(String encoded) {
List<LatLng> poly = new ArrayList<LatLng>();
int index = 0, len = encoded.length();
int lat = 0, lng = 0;
while (index < len) {
int b, shift = 0, result = 0;
do {
b = encoded.charAt(index++) - 63;
result |= (b & 0x1f) << shift;
shift += 5;
} while (b >= 0x20);
int dlat = ((result & 1) != 0 ? ~(result >> 1) : (result >> 1));
lat += dlat;
shift = 0;
result = 0;
do {
b = encoded.charAt(index++) - 63;
result |= (b & 0x1f) << shift;
shift += 5;
} while (b >= 0x20);
int dlng = ((result & 1) != 0 ? ~(result >> 1) : (result >> 1));
lng += dlng;
LatLng p = new LatLng((((double) lat / 1E5)),

You can use this function to show direction in preinstalled Google NavigationApp
public void showDirections(double lat, double lng, double lat1, double lng1) {
final Intent intent = new
Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("http://maps.google.com/maps?" +
"saddr=" + lat + "," + lng + "&daddr=" + lat1 + "," +
lng1));
intent.setClassName("com.google.android.apps.maps", "com.google.android.maps.MapsActivity");
startActivity(intent);
}
