This gem looks great. Are you planning to add Google Places search, autocomplete, etc?

apneadiving commented 13 years ago

I've not planned to do any of your suggested features.

I let the ticket open: it could inspire a potential contributor to the gem.

How to implement google map search by using postcode or city? Is it possible to implement in rails application? I am bit new to it so please excuse me.

Thanks

please ask your question on stackoverflow and i'll give you more details... for now:

address = Gmaps4rails.geocode(params[:user_address]) @search_lat = address.first[:lat].to_f @search_long = address.first[:lng].to_f @search_address = address.first[:matched_address]
