I’m building a ror app and have a model with geo-coordinates would like
to
use the info in the model to generate a google map view, does anyone
know
what’s the best way to go round this?
is is Google API?, I’ve also seen a gmaps4rails, any comments?
yep I’m going the gmaps4rails way and looks ok, I was wondering if there
is
anything else out there to plug in.
thanks for your tip on the railscasts, really enlightening!
Cheers
Hi Jax, I’m using geocoder and the gmaps4rails. On this railscast #273 Geocoder - RailsCasts he show some examples and it
has the links for the gems. It’s really easy.
The geocoder is for geolocalization caulculus and some features as
getting
the latitude and longitude, via google api, saving the address
automaticly(you just need to point the field address).
The gmaps4rails make it easy to work with the Google API.
