Add language #16

Closed Agutierrez-nexbus closed 2 years ago

Agutierrez-nexbus commented 2 years ago

Is it possible to add a language parameter? According to the Google Routing API it is possible to specify the language in which to return the results.

Thanks for the suggestion! Sure. I'll add this and get back to you as soon as possible.

Now added language parameter in mp_directions. Please install the development version:

remotes::install_github("michaeldorman/mapsapi")

and try the example:

library(mapsapi)
key = readLines("key_google")

# Directions in Russian
doc = mp_directions(
  origin = "Beer-Sheva",
  destination = "Rehovot",
  language = "ru",
  key = key,
  quiet = TRUE
)
seg = mp_get_segments(doc)
seg$instructions[1]
## [1] "Направляйтесь на <b>север</b> по <b>Haim Nachman Bialik St</b> в сторону <b>Eli'ezer Ben Yehuda St</b>"

Let me know if you encounter any issues with this, thanks!
