django-easy-maps 1.1.5

Templates

If the default map template is not sufficient then a custom map template can be used. For example:

{% easy_map address using "map.html" %}
{% easy_map address 200 300 5 using "map.html" %}

The template will have map (easy_maps.Address instance auto-created for passed address on first access), width, height and zoom variables. The outer template context is passed to the rendered template as well.

You can start your own template from scratch or just override some blocks in the default template.

Please refer to https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/ for detailed Google Maps JavaScript API help.

Widgets

django-easy-maps provides a basic widget that displays a map under the address field. It can be used in the admin for map previews. For example:

from django import forms
from django.contrib import admin

from easy_maps.widgets import AddressWithMapWidget

from .models import Firm

class FirmAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    class form(forms.ModelForm):
        class Meta:
            widgets = {
                'address': AddressWithMapWidget({'class': 'vTextField'})
            }

admin.site.register(Firm, FirmAdmin)

address field should be either a CharField or TextField.
