central_map (Flutter) #

The central.kg map of Kyrgyzstan for Flutter (iOS + Android): a preconfigured MapLibre map over our own vector tiles from map.central.kg, with markers, polylines, zones, clustering and a REST client (search, routing, isochrones). A wrapper around maplibre_gl.

Same map in other stacks: @centralkg/map (JS), @centralkg/map-react / -vue / -angular, @centralkg/map-react-native, CentralMap (Swift, Kotlin).

Russian version of this document: README.ru.md.

Install #

# pubspec.yaml
dependencies:
  central_map: ^0.1.0

The native side is set up exactly as for maplibre_gl: Android minSdk 21+, iOS platform :ios, '13.0', plus location permissions if you enable myLocationEnabled. See the maplibre_gl docs for platform details.

API key #

The map is served against a key bound to the map service. Generate it in your account at auth.central.kg -> "API keys": a key issued for one service does not work on another, so a leaked key cannot be used elsewhere in the ecosystem.

const config = CentralMapConfig(apiKey: 'ck_map_...');

The key travels as ?key= on tile, style and font requests (the native map engine cannot attach headers) and as the X-API-Key header on REST calls. Without a key the backend answers 401 to third-party origins.

Map, markers, polylines #

Flutter uses LatLng(latitude, longitude) -- the order is lat, lng.

import 'package:central_map/central_map.dart';

CentralMap(
  config: const CentralMapConfig(apiKey: 'ck_map_...'),
  dark: true,
  initialCenter: const LatLng(41.3, 74.6), // center of Kyrgyzstan
  initialZoom: 7,
  onReady: (c) async {
    await c.addMarker(const LatLng(42.87, 74.59), color: Colors.cyan); // Bishkek
    await c.addPolyline(
      const [LatLng(42.8, 74.5), LatLng(42.9, 74.7)],
      color: Colors.indigo, width: 5,
    );
    // your own icon:
    // await c.registerImage('pin', pngBytes);
    // await c.addIconMarker(const LatLng(42.87, 74.59), 'pin');
  },
)

onReady hands you a CentralMapController:

Widget options worth knowing: dark, layers (show only these layer keys -- base.* / poi.* / poigroup.*, taxonomy comes from CentralMapApi.poiMeta()), initialCenter, initialZoom, minZoom, maxZoom, myLocationEnabled, onTap, styleString (bring your own MapLibre style), and drawZone + onZoneDraw for freehand zone drawing.

REST API (search, routing, isochrones) #

final api = CentralMapApi(config);

final hits  = await api.search('Bishkek', limit: 10);                // geocoder
final route = await api.route(const LatLng(42.87, 74.59),            // routing
                              const LatLng(42.89, 74.85), mode: 'car');
final iso   = await api.isochrone(const LatLng(42.87, 74.59),        // reachability
                                  minutes: [5, 10, 15]);
final meta  = await api.poiMeta();                                   // POI taxonomy

mode for routing: car | foot | bike | scooter. The base URL is https://map.central.kg/api (override with apiBase / tilesUrl in the config). Full endpoint reference: https://map.central.kg/docs.
