A map-based field to pick a precise location and return its coordinates (latitude and longitude)

Class: Code16\Sharp\Form\Fields\SharpFormGeolocationField

Configuration

setDisplayUnitDegreesMinutesSeconds()

Sets the coordinate display to be degrees-minutes-second, eg: 17°10'16'', 89°17'45''

setDisplayUnitDecimalDegrees()

Sets the coordinate display to be decimal degrees, eg: 0.36666667, 17.15722222. This is the default.

setInitialPosition(float $lat, float $lng)

clearInitialPosition()

Sets the initial position of the edit map, when there in no marker yet.

setBoundaries(float $northEastLat, float $northEastLng, float $southWestLat, float $southWestLng)

clearBoundaries()

If needed, set boundaries to the edit map, providing a north-east and a south-west position.

setZoomLevel(int $zoomLevel)

Set the map zoom level, from 1 (the World) ou 25. Default is 10.

setMapsProvider(string $provider, array $options = [])

You can choose between 2 providers for the Maps display:

• "gmaps" for Google Maps (requires an API key, see below)
• "osm" for Open Street Maps

setGeocoding(bool $geocoding = true)

Authorize geocoding, meaning enter an address and get back the coordinates. Default is false. May require an API key depending on the provider (see below).

setGeocodingProvider(string $provider, array $options = [])

You can choose between 2 providers for geocoding:

• "gmaps" for Google Maps (requires an API key, see below)
• "osm" for Open Street Maps (Nominatim)

setApiKey(string $apiKey)

If you use Google Maps as provider, for maps ou geocoding, you'll need a valid Google Maps Api key. This method will set the API key for both maps and geocoding.

setGeocodingApiKey(string $apiKey)

This method will set the API key for geocoding only.

setMapsApiKey(string $apiKey)

This method will set the API key for maps only.

setGoogleMapsMapId(string $mapId)

Google Maps API now requires a Map ID to use markers. It must be defined if maps provider is set to "gmaps".

• fromFront: returns a string with the same format than toFront.
