Cannot enter exact address in profile.

[thihamin]

The autofill only resolves to city level address for some addresses.

When I searched for "33 Jennings Ct, San Francisco" on my profile, the 'house_number' doesn't show up. I am guessing that it might be an issue with openstreetmap search functionality. When I searched "175 5th Ave, new york", the house_number showed up in address (when looking at Network response in Chrome browser)

Stelace uses 'Maptiler'. The api call to mapquest's openstreetmap api is here. https://github.com/justinschuldt/syr-marketplace/blob/dev/src/utils/places.js#L34

TODO:

• Investigate if we can update the way that we call the openstreetmap api to get the house number.
• If we need to replace maprequest api with Google Map api, please estimate the level of effort required for replacing it. If it is too much effort to replace the api, we might just show a label next to the address to mentioning that the address might not be the exact address. And that the seller and buyer will need to communicate via chat feature to get the address.

"house_number" showed up when searching "175 5th ave, new york"

It seems this should be titled "full address does not show in profile" as it is being captured and geocoded to the correct lat/lon.

I'm not sure we want to show people's full address on the profile. Maybe we could show it to them, then have the public facing profile keep the current behavior.

I am closing this since it's not obvious that the existing behavior should change. We can circle back later if we want.

@justinschuldt this issue is not about showing full address in profile. Currently we cannot get the exact address of some addresses. For example, "33 Jennings Ct, San Francisco" was my previous address in SF. If I type that in, the result from openstreetmap api doesn't return that address. So we cannot geocode that address. We will need the ability to know the house number to be able to pickup food at a location.

I also verified that the issue is not fixed on d4d branch.
