Get Google Maps directions

Automatically get Google Maps directions on google.com. Get the routes Google Maps proposes between two places by car, public transport, on foot or by bike, as its directions panel lists them. Places are addresses, place names or "lat,lng" coordinates, such as the coordinates that search_places or get_place return for a place, or that a listing search returns for a home. Public transport takes a time (leave now, depart at, arrive by, or the last departure of a day), preferred vehicles (bus, subway, train, tram) and a routing preference (fewer transfers, less walking, wheelchair accessible); driving takes the time and the roads to avoid (highways, tolls, ferries). Each route gives its duration, distance, departure and arrival times, fare, walking time and service frequency, and each of its legs: for public transport the line, vehicle, color, direction, operator, the boarding and alighting stops with platforms and times, and the stops in between; for driving the duration in traffic and the usual range. The answer also gives the place Maps resolved for each end, with its place id for get_place, which can differ from what was meant when the text is vague, and the duration Maps shows for each travel mode. When Maps finds no route, routes is empty. To compare many origins with one destination, run it once per origin in a single call with several scripts.
