Let users pick locations using a map widget and store its latitude and longitude.
Stable version: django-location-field==2.0.3
License: MIT
Tests are performed with Python 2.7, Django 1.8 .. 1.10 and SpatiaLite. We'd like to have automated tests for Python 3 too, but it looks like pysqlite (which is used for testing) does not support it yet, so it's blocking us. You can get more details in the tox.ini file.
- Support for multiple map engines, like Google Maps, OpenStreetMap and Mapbox.
- Works with both Spatial and non-Spatial databases.
- Django 1.8 to 1.10
- Python 2.7 to 3.5
- PostGIS
- SpatiaLite
-
Install through pip (or manually place it on your
PYTHONPATH
).pip install django-location-field
-
Add
location_field.apps.DefaultConfig
toINSTALLED_APPS
your settings.py file
For example, PostGIS:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/gis/install/postgis/
from django.contrib.gis.db import models
from django.contrib.gis.geos import Point
from location_field.models.spatial import LocationField
class Place(models.Model):
city = models.CharField(max_length=255)
location = LocationField(based_fields=['city'], zoom=7, default=Point(1.0, 1.0))
objects = models.GeoManager()
Look that you must put models.GeoManager()
in your model, or some errors will occur.
from django.db import models
from location_field.models.plain import PlainLocationField
class Place(models.Model):
city = models.CharField(max_length=255)
location = PlainLocationField(based_fields=['city'], zoom=7)
