Collection of Google Maps API Web Services for Laravel

Hi,

Actually, it's not an issue - but this is the only way I can contact you.

Does this package support the following case:

To check if an address falls within another address using Lat/Long and Radius.

Thanks.

Hi I just installed your library and it looks pretty cool. Just wondering if there is any method to decode the polyline point returned in Directions response. Here is Directions API response:

Thanks

Hi,

I'm currently working on a project that involves google maps turn by turn directions.

I encounter this error, what could be the cause of this?

Call to undefined method Illuminate\Support\Facades\GoogleMapsFacade::load()

I placed the GoogleMapsFacade.php to Illuminate\Support\Facades\ directory.

Thanks in advance.

Have this exception running php 7.2 laravel 5.5

ErrorException count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that implements Countable

/vendor/alexpechkarev/google-maps/src/WebService.php:305

// Validate Endpoint
if(!array_key_exists('endpoint', config('googlemaps') )
        || !count(config('googlemaps.endpoint') < 1)){
    throw new \ErrorException('End point must not be empty.');
}

Setting the parameter optimizeWaypoints to true doesn't change the response.

In the example from maps api documentation destinations are set this way: (...)waypoints=optimize:true|Barossa+Valley,SA|Clare,SA|Connawarra,SA|McLaren+Vale,SA

The curl request in this library adds the optimizeWaypoints=true to the end of the URL which doesn't return the array optimized_waypoints order correctly.

local.ERROR: exception 'Symfony\Component\Debug\Exception\FatalErrorException' with message 'Can't use function return value in write context' in /var/www/'user'l/httpdocs/laravel/vendor/alexpechkarev/google-maps/src/WebService.php:268

Hi i just started using laravel as framework and am almost done with my project with it. I have a problem with the google-maps. Everytime i try this code

$response = \GoogleMaps::load('geocoding')->setParam (['address' =>'santa cruz'])->get(); I get the error thats written above. If you can please help me with this issue ill be really grateful.

This PR resolves the issue of timeouts when the google service is not responding in a reasonable time, this can cause high load on the server when handling many requests.

Added a connection timeout with default 1 second and a request timeout with 5 seconds.

I see your example on docs git directory, but you no have the "use GoogleMaps\Facade\GoogleMapsFacade;" in your controller.

I try to use for add a map in my dashboard, but can't use because not understand how use in controller to return the map position and insert map on view.

Thanks

Hi alexpechkarev,

my PHP Version 7.4.2

Thank you

Hi, how can return multiples paramters? i need return name, photo, address, etc. i tried with this get('response.name.photo') get('response.['name.,photo']')

but the response is all parameters.

Just updated to the latest release for Laravel 9 — thanks for a great package!

Whilst doing so, I noticed the jbroadway/urlify requirement in composer.json is ranged to ^1.1. This version causes Composer to throw an error when generating the autoloader due to PSR-0.

I think the requirements should change to "jbroadway/urlify": "^1.1 | ^1.2", as the PSR-0 issue seems to have been fixed in 1.2.1.

Hey,

I'm fetching place details with the following code in laravel 8.

$response =  GoogleMapsFacade::load('placedetails')->setParam([
    'place_id' => 'my_place_id'
])->get();

This only seems to return 5 reviews, while the place has many more.

Is it possible to get all reviews of a given place?

hello , I have this google link -

https://www.google.com.br/maps/@-22.4151458,-49.1328797,3a,75y,170.53h,82.38t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1selNMIexYHQOrulrENDXAtg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656

How can I get the address information ( latitude , longitude ..) , from a link like that ?

Hi, I am trying to get all the alternative routes between two points with coordinates, but I always get only one route even though I am sending alternatives=true in the request parameters.

Let me give you an example.

In this link You will get three routes in total, the main route and two alternative routes.

But when I do it with your package I always get only one route.

This is the code I am using to get the alternate routes with your package.

$origins = ['10.0631549', '-69.3103233'];
$destinations = ['10.0540698', '-69.3421256'];

$response = \GoogleMaps::load('directions')
              ->setParam([
                  'origin' => implode(',', $origins),
                  'destination' => implode(',', $destinations),
                  'alternatives' => true,
                  'language' => 'es'
              ])->get();

What do I have to do to get the alternative routes with your package?
