google mapsgoogle-maps-api-3javascriptreact-google-mapsreactjs

I'm struggling to find a very simple example of how to add a marker(s) to a Google Map when a user left clicks on the map using React-google-maps in components based. Need help.

const Map = withScriptjs(withGoogleMap((props) =>
  <GoogleMap
    defaultZoom={8}
    defaultCenter={{ lat: -34.397, lng: 150.644 }}
    onClick = {props.onMapClick}
   >
  {props.isMarkerShown && <Marker position={props.markerPosition} />}

 </GoogleMap>
))

export default class MapContainer extends React.Component {
  constructor (props) {
    super(props)
    this.state = {

   }
 }

render () {
  return (
  <div style={{height: '100%'}}>
    <Map
      googleMapURL="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=AIzaSyC4R6AN7SmujjPUIGKdyao2Kqitzr1kiRg&v=3.exp&libraries=geometry,drawing,places"
      loadingElement={<div style={{ height: `100%` }} />}
      containerElement={<div style={{ height: `400px` }} />}
      mapElement={<div style={{ height: `100%` }} />}
      placeMarker={this.placeMarker}
    />
  </div>
)
 }
 }

This is a generic example that demonstrates how to display marker on map click:

const Map = compose(
    withStateHandlers(() => ({
        isMarkerShown: false,
        markerPosition: null
      }), {
        onMapClick: ({ isMarkerShown }) => (e) => ({
            markerPosition: e.latLng,
            isMarkerShown:true
        })
      }),
    withScriptjs,
    withGoogleMap
)
    (props =>
        <GoogleMap
            defaultZoom={8}
            defaultCenter={{ lat: -34.397, lng: 150.644 }}
            onClick={props.onMapClick}
        >
            {props.isMarkerShown && <Marker position={props.markerPosition} />}

        </GoogleMap>
    )

export default class MapContainer extends React.Component {
    constructor(props) {
        super(props)
    }

    render() {
        return (
            <div style={{ height: '100%' }}>
                <Map
                    googleMapURL="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=AIzaSyC4R6AN7SmujjPUIGKdyao2Kqitzr1kiRg&v=3.exp&libraries=geometry,drawing,places"
                    loadingElement={<div style={{ height: `100%` }} />}
                    containerElement={<div style={{ height: `400px` }} />}
                    mapElement={<div style={{ height: `100%` }} />}
                />
            </div>
        )
    }
}
