Configuration

After the package has been installed, you will need to register it in the providers array in your config/app.php file.

'providers' => [
    // Other service providers...
    
    Daavelar\LaravelGeocode\LaravelGeoCodeServiceProvider::class,
],

You should also publish the config file with the following artisan command:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Daavelar\LaravelGeocode\LaravelGeoCodeServiceProvider"

This command will publish a geocode.php config file to your config directory. If you open this file, you will see all the available settings you can adjust for this package.

Usage To use the geocoding functionality, you can use the GeoCodeFacade provided by the package. Here is an example of how to use it:

<?php
use Daavelar\LaravelGeoCode\GeoCodeFacade as GeoCode;

$address = '1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA';
$result = GeoCode::fromAddress($address);

print_r($result);

Make sure to set your OpenCage API key in the config/geocode.php file:

<?php
return [
    'driver' => 'opencage',
    'opencage' => [
        'api_key' => env('OPENCAGE_API_KEY'),
    ],
];

You can set the OPENCAGE_API_KEY in your .env file:

OPENCAGE_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
