README

A CakePHP plugin to

• geocode locations/ips and save the information (lat/lng) along with the records
• reverse geocode data
• querying geocoded data by distance (using custom finder)
• display Google maps (dynamic and static)
• display Leaflet maps (open-source alternative)
• display static maps from multiple providers (Geoapify, Mapbox, Stadia, Google)

This branch is for CakePHP 5.1+. See version map for details.

Note that it uses the willdurand/geocoder library and therefore supports

• 12+ address-based Geocoder providers
• 10+ IP-based Geocoder providers

Most of them also support reverse geocoding. And of course you can write your own providers on top.

Also:

• MySQL support
• PostgreSQL support
• SQLite support (for easy local testing)

And also:

• GeocodedAddresses Table class for caching of API requests to prevent rate limits and speed up lookups.
• NullProvider for testing without external API calls.

Demo

See Sandbox examples for live demos of the map helpers and the Geocoder behavior.
