Map with:

search by zip radius
filter by business category/industry
zooms to current location if location is known (e.g. mobile)?

serundeputy commented 6 years ago

We have a basic searchable map at /businesses.

[ ] Figure out zip code radius filters
[ ] Need a list of business categories
- once we have the list we can create a Vocabulary and terms
- add taxonomy ref field to business content type
- add search filter by taxonomy categories to the /businesses page
[ ] Map defaults to zoom Memphis
- @laryn is that good enough? then filter operations zoom according to geocenter of results returned.

I'm interested in this issue and will try to find time to take a look and contribute. I have two projects that needs some mapping.

laryn commented 5 years ago

@stpaultim @serundeputy I came across this module which might be interesting to port and test:

https://www.drupal.org/project/ip_geoloc

I'm not sure how hard or simple the port would be, but it looks like it has some good/useful features, including a way to do proximity searching, I believe.

serundeputy commented 5 years ago

Looks good has a few dependencies:


dependencies[] = libraries
; The following aren't dependencies but are highly recommended to realise a
; rich feature set:
;   Geocoder
;   Statistics (core)
;   Views
;   Views-PHP
;   either Smart IP or GeoIP API
;   Session Cache API

not sure if any/all of those have been ported. fyi; http://cgit.drupalcode.org/ip_geoloc/tree/ip_geoloc.info

just for context of how much work the port may be.

laryn commented 5 years ago

I've begun porting IP_GeoLoc here: https://github.com/backdrop-contrib/ip_geoloc

Additional testing and contributions from others are welcome! So far I've tested enough to get a basic Zip Code proximity search working in Views on a local install.
