wagtailgmaps
==================
Simple Google Maps address formatter and LatLng provider for Wagtail fields.
# Quickstart
Assuming you have a [Wagtail](https://wagtail.io/) project up and running:
``` $ pip install wagtailgmaps```
add `wagtailgmaps` and `overextends` to your `settings.py` before any wagtail apps in the INSTALLED_APPS section:
```
.
.
'overextends',
'wagtailgmaps',
'wagtail.wagtailcore',
'wagtail.wagtailadmin',
.
.
.
...
```
Add a couple of necessary constants in your `settings.py` file:
```
...
WAGTAIL_ADDRESS_MAP_CENTER = 'Wellington, New Zealand'
WAGTAIL_ADDRESS_MAP_ZOOM = 8
...
```
`WAGTAIL_ADDRESS_MAP_CENTER` must be a properly formatted address. Also, remember valid zoom levels go from 0 to 18. See [Map options](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/tutorial#MapOptions) for details.
As for now, only fields using `FieldPanel` inside a `MultiFieldPanel` are supported. This is due to the lack of support of the `classname` attribute for other panel fields other than `MultiFieldPanel`.
In your `models.py`, your custom Page model would have something similar to:
```
address_panels = MultiFieldPanel([
FieldPanel('address', classname="gmap"),
], heading="Street Address")
```
Notice the `FieldPanel` is embedded in a `MultiFieldPanel`, even if it only contains a single element. If you define your `FieldPanel` outside it won't work. The app supports more than one map (field) at the same time.
If instead of outputting a formatted address, you want to output a LatLng, you should add `gmap--latlng` modifier class to the panel:
```
latlng = models.CharField(max_length=255)
panels = [
MultiFieldPanel([
FieldPanel('latlng', classname="gmap gmap--latlng"),
], heading="Map location"),
]
```
When editing the model from the admin interface the affected field shows up with a map, like the screenshot above.
If using the address option, the field gets updated according to the [Google Geocoding Service](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/geocoding/) each time:
* The map market gets dragged and dropped into a location (`dragend` JS event).
* Click happens somewhere in the map (`click` JS event).
* Return key is pressed after editing the field (`enterKey` JS event for return key only).
Feel free to edit the provided JS to add/edit the events you might need.
Once your address field is properly formatted and stored in the database you can use it in your front end Django templates. Example:
```
<a href="http://maps.google.com/?q={{ address }}">Open map</a>
```
Or if you opted for the LatLng pair option:
```
<a href="http://maps.google.com/?q={{ latlng }}">Open map</a>
```
