zoom to geojson polygons bounds in Google Maps API v3

Question

I'm loading geojson from a Postgis-database and want to display it on my map. After drawing a polygon, I want the map to zoom to the extents of the added polygon.

My data loads fine and displays correct on the map, but I cannot figure out how to get the bounds and change the zoom to the newly added polygon. I tried to use parts of the code from Google's Data Layer: Drag and Drop GeoJSON example, but the displayed map zooms in somewhere in the Pacific Ocean close to the Baker Islands, while the polygon is displayed correctly in Luxembourg.

Here the code I am using:

window.addEventListener("load", func1);

function func1(){
  //Load mapdata via geoJson
  var parzelle = new google.maps.Data();
  parzelle.loadGeoJson("./mapdata/get_parzelle_geojson.php<?php echo  "?gid=".$_GET['gid'];?>");

  // Set the stroke width, and fill color for each polygon
  var featureStyle = {
    fillColor: '#ADFF2F',
    fillOpacity: 0.1,
    strokeColor: '#ADFF2F',
    strokeWeight: 1
  }

  parzelle.setStyle(featureStyle);
  parzelle.setMap(map);

  zoom(map);
}

function zoom(map) {
  var bounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds();
  map.data.forEach(function(feature) {
    processPoints(feature.getGeometry(), bounds.extend, bounds);
  });
  map.fitBounds(bounds);
}

function processPoints(geometry, callback, thisArg) {
  if (geometry instanceof google.maps.LatLng) {
    callback.call(thisArg, geometry);
  } else if (geometry instanceof google.maps.Data.Point) {
    callback.call(thisArg, geometry.get());
  } else {
    geometry.getArray().forEach(function(g) {
      processPoints(g, callback, thisArg);
    });
  }
}

Is there a way to get that to work? It seems that there is no simple method to get the bounds of polygons in google.maps.data-layers.

There are issues with your posted code. You can use map.data to access the data layer.

Working code snippet. Initially zooms to all the features in the GeoJSON. Zooms to each individual polygon on click.

window.addEventListener("load", func1);
var map;

function func1() {
  map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map-canvas'), {
    zoom: 4,
    center: {
      lat: 0,
      lng: 0
    }
  });
  // Set the stroke width, and fill color for each polygon
  var featureStyle = {
    fillColor: '#ADFF2F',
    fillOpacity: 0.1,
    strokeColor: '#ADFF2F',
    strokeWeight: 1
  };

  // zoom to show all the features
  var bounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds();
  map.data.addListener('addfeature', function(e) {
    processPoints(e.feature.getGeometry(), bounds.extend, bounds);
    map.fitBounds(bounds);
  });

  // zoom to the clicked feature
  map.data.addListener('click', function(e) {
    var bounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds();
    processPoints(e.feature.getGeometry(), bounds.extend, bounds);
    map.fitBounds(bounds);
  });
  //Load mapdata via geoJson
  map.data.loadGeoJson('https://storage.googleapis.com/maps-devrel/google.json');
}

function processPoints(geometry, callback, thisArg) {
  if (geometry instanceof google.maps.LatLng) {
    callback.call(thisArg, geometry);
  } else if (geometry instanceof google.maps.Data.Point) {
    callback.call(thisArg, geometry.get());
  } else {
    geometry.getArray().forEach(function(g) {
      processPoints(g, callback, thisArg);
    });
  }
}
