Make condition to set the colour of polyline on google maps API

Question

I've been make polyline on google Maps. But I wanna set the polyline into 3 colours. I have conditions to set it, but don't know how to place it. this is the code

    var polylinePlanCoordinates  = [];
     var polyline_data = <?php echo json_encode($data); ?>;
     for (var i=0;i< polyline_data.length;i++ ){
      polylinePlanCoordinates.push(new google.maps.LatLng(polyline_data[i]['latitude'], polyline_data[i]['longitude']));
    }

    var path= new google.maps.Polyline({
      path: polylinePlanCoordinates,
     geodesic: true,
    strokeColor: '#000000',
    strokeOpacity: 1.0,
    strokeWeight: 5
     });

     path.setMap(map);
}



google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);

and the condition is

if(polyline_data[i]['kon_jem']>0 && polyline_data[i]['kon_jem']<3){
strokeColor: '#ffffff';
}
else if (polyline_data[i]['kon_jem']>3 && polyline_data[i]['kon_jem']<9){
strokeColor: '#000000';
}
else if (polyline_data[i]['kon_jem']>9){
strokeColor: '#fff000';
}

You need to process through your array creating individual polylines for each set of two points in your data, assign each segment the color associated with one of its endpoints.

// only go to length - 1 or you will overrun the array
for (var i = 0; i < polyline_data.length - 1; i++) {
  // for each segment of two points
  var polylinePlanCoordinates = [];
  polylinePlanCoordinates.push(new google.maps.LatLng(polyline_data[i]['latitude'], polyline_data[i]['longitude']));
  polylinePlanCoordinates.push(new google.maps.LatLng(polyline_data[i + 1]['latitude'], polyline_data[i + 1]['longitude']));

  // create a polyline
  var path = new google.maps.Polyline({
    path: polylinePlanCoordinates,
    geodesic: true,
    strokeOpacity: 1.0,
    strokeWeight: 5
  });
  // set the color of the segment based on the lowest index point
  if (polyline_data[i]['kon_jem'] > 0 && polyline_data[i]['kon_jem'] < 3) {
    path.setOptions({
      strokeColor: '#ffffff'
    });
  } else if (polyline_data[i]['kon_jem'] > 3 && polyline_data[i]['kon_jem'] < 9) {
    path.setOptions({
      strokeColor: '#000000'
    });
  } else if (polyline_data[i]['kon_jem'] > 9) {
    path.setOptions({
      strokeColor: '#fff000'
    });
  }
  path.setMap(map);
}

code snippet:

function initialize() {
  var map = new google.maps.Map(
    document.getElementById("map_canvas"), {
      center: new google.maps.LatLng(37.4419, -122.1419),
      zoom: 13,
      mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
    });
  var bounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds();
  for (var i = 0; i < polyline_data.length - 1; i++) {
    // for each segment of two points
    var polylinePlanCoordinates = [];
    polylinePlanCoordinates.push(new google.maps.LatLng(polyline_data[i]['latitude'], polyline_data[i]['longitude']));
    polylinePlanCoordinates.push(new google.maps.LatLng(polyline_data[i + 1]['latitude'], polyline_data[i + 1]['longitude']));

    // create a polyline
    var path = new google.maps.Polyline({
      path: polylinePlanCoordinates,
      geodesic: true,
      strokeOpacity: 1.0,
      strokeWeight: 5
    });
    bounds.extend(path.getPath().getAt(0));
    bounds.extend(path.getPath().getAt(1));

    if (polyline_data[i]['kon_jem'] > 0 && polyline_data[i]['kon_jem'] < 3) {
      path.setOptions({
        strokeColor: '#ffffff'
      });
    } else if (polyline_data[i]['kon_jem'] > 3 && polyline_data[i]['kon_jem'] < 9) {
      path.setOptions({
        strokeColor: '#000000'
      });
    } else if (polyline_data[i]['kon_jem'] > 9) {
      path.setOptions({
        strokeColor: '#fff000'
      });
    }
    path.setMap(map);

  }
  map.fitBounds(bounds);
}
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, "load", initialize);
var polyline_data = [
  {latitude: 0, longitude: 0, kon_jem: 0},
  {latitude: 0.1, longitude: 0.2, kon_jem: 1},
  {latitude: 0.2, longitude: 0.1, kon_jem: 2},
