Restrict Autocomplete to Specific Countries

[masaruduy]

Thanks for you great app you made.

Is there a way to restrict the autocomplete results to certain countries? I've found this setting on https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/places-autocomplete-multiple-countries: autocomplete.setComponentRestrictions( {'country': ['us', 'pr', 'vi', 'gu', 'mp']});

Not sure how it could be used together with your code though. Can you please advise?

Thanks!

Currently there is no way to pass this option in without modifying the package. However, I was able to achieve this by modifying the address.js file.

Here's the line in question.

Add the countries you want to a country property like this:

$(function () {
    $('input.address').each(function () {
        var self = $(this);
        var cmps = $('#' + self.attr('name') + '_components');
        var fmtd = $('input[name="' + self.attr('name') + '_formatted"]');
        self.geocomplete({
            **country: ['IT', 'US'],**
            details: cmps,
            detailsAttribute: 'data-geo'        
...

And you get only those countries:

I'm closing this for now, but if it comes up again we can look at adding it as a feature.
