Simple Map

A beautifully simple Google Map field type for Craft CMS. Full localization support, compatible with Matrix, supports searching by location and sorting by distance.

Installation

Clone this repo into craft/plugins/simplemap.

Usage

Create the field as you would any other.
The field type will return an array containing lat, lng, zoom, address, and parts. This means you can use {{ myMapField.lat }}.

parts

This contains the locations address, broken down into its constituent parts. All values are optional so you'll need to have checks on any you use to make sure they exist.
A list of the available values can be found here.
To access the short version of any part, append _short to the end of its name. E.g. {{ myMapField.country_short }}.

Searching and Sorting

You can search for elements using the location specified in your map field. When searching by your map field you also have the option to sort the results by distance.

{% set entries = craft.entries.myMapField({
    location: 'Maidstone, Kent, UK',
    radius: 100,
    unit: 'mi'
}).order('distance') %}

• location: Can either be an address string (requires a Google Maps Geocoding API key) or a Lat Lng Array ({ 'lat': 51.27219908, 'lng': 0.51545620 } or craft.simpleMap.latLng(51.27219908, 0.51545620)).
• radius: The radius around the location to search. Defaults to 50.
• unit: The unit of measurement for the search. Can be either km (kilometers) or mi (miles). Defaults to km.

API Keys

You can access your browser API key in templates using craft.simpleMap.apiKey.
