Installation

Install via Composer:

composer require lt-25/geocode

Setup

After installation you'll want to publish the configuration and set a couple of environment variables.

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Lalit\Geocode\Providers\GeocodeServiceProvider" --tag="geocode-config"

This will copy config/geocode.php to your application's config directory. The package reads the following env values (you can add them to your .env file):

# Choose provider (default: location-iq)
GEOCODE_PROVIDER=location-iq

# API credentials for the Maps.co/LocationIQ service
GEOCODE_MAPS_CO_KEY=your_api_key_here
GEOCODE_MAPS_CO_URL=https://api.locationiq.com/v1/autocomplete

# Optional tuning
GEOCODE_TIMEOUT=15
GEOCODE_CACHE_ENABLED=false
GEOCODE_CACHE_TTL=3600
GEOCODE_CACHE_STORE=default
GEOCODE_RATE_LIMIT=false
GEOCODE_RATE_LIMIT_REQUESTS=60
GEOCODE_RATE_LIMIT_PERIOD=60
GEOCODE_DEFAULT_LIMIT=50

# Logging (enabled by default)
GEOCODE_LOGGING=true
GEOCODE_LOG_CHANNEL=single

You can adjust these values to suit your application.
