Easily create Google Maps routes using Python

GMaps Route

GMaps Route allows you to create routes for Google Maps offline directly in Python. The project lets you create a route between two locations, add intermediate destinations and specify waypoints (subdestinations) to route along.

A simple and more complex example can be found in the examples/ directory.

Installation

pip install gmaps-route

Examples

Simple

python examples/simple.py
https://www.google.com/maps/dir/data=!4m9!4m8!1m3!2m2!1d8.6821267!2d50.1109221!1m3!2m2!1d11.5819805!2d48.1351253

Will print the URL to a simple route from Munich (start) to Frankfurt (end).

Complex

python examples/large.py
https://www.google.com/maps/dir/data=!3m1!1e3!4m26!4m25!1m7!2m2!1d8.6821267!2d50.1109221!3m3!1m2!1d8.4401422!2d49.4816004!1m11!2m2!1d9.1829321!2d48.7758459!3m3!1m2!1d9.9998080!2d48.4040736!3m3!1m2!1d11.4316520!2d48.1276310!1m3!2m2!1d11.5819805!2d48.1351253!3e0

Will print the URL to a route from Munich (start) to Stuttgart (intermediate) to Frankfurt (end). It also adds subdestinations (waypoints to route-along) between destinations. Note that these subdestinations between destinations always have to be added to the later destination of the two. This route also configures the map type as 'Satellite' and transportation type as 'Car'.
