A none CI implementation of BIOINSTALL's CodeIgniter library.

I found this library to be incredibly useful when I was working in CodeIgniter. However a little bit of work needed to be done to use it in a Laravel project. I can't take any of the credit for the actual "heavy lifting" going on in the class.

#Installation

Add this package in your composer.json and update composer.

For Laravel 4.* use the below line. Please be aware that I only have the time to support the latest stable release of Laravel. So any future updates (features, security, or otherwise) will not be applied to the branch for laravel4 compatibility

"bluemove/phpgmaps": "dev-master"

After updating composer, add the ServiceProvider to the providers array in app/config/app.php

'bluemove\Phpgmaps\PhpgmapsServiceProvider',

And the Facade

'Gmaps' => 'bluemove\Phpgmaps\Facades\Phpgmaps',

Example

The following code will prompt the user for access to their geolocation and then creates a map centered on their lat/lng

Route::get('/', function(){
    $config = array();
    $config['center'] = 'auto';
    $config['onboundschanged'] = 'if (!centreGot) {
            var mapCentre = map.getCenter();
            marker_0.setOptions({
                position: new google.maps.LatLng(mapCentre.lat(), mapCentre.lng())
            });
        }
        centreGot = true;';
        
    Gmaps::initialize($config);

    // set up the marker ready for positioning
    // once we know the users location
    $marker = array();
    Gmaps::add_marker($marker);

    $map = Gmaps::create_map();
    echo "<html><head><script type="text/javascript">var centreGot = false;</script>".$map['js']."</head><body>".$map['html']."</body></html>";
});
