A geocomplete widget for Yii2 using the Geocomplete jQuery plugin.

Usage

First you need to configure Google Maps API key, This can be done by setting the mapsApiKey property in the widget's asset bundle in your app config:

'components' => [
    'assetManager' => [
        'bundles' => [
            fv\yii\geocomplete\Asset::class => [
                'mapsApiKey' => 'YOUR-API-KEY',
			]
		]
	]
];

You can use sessionToken on the asset bundle configuration to specify the session token to be sent to Maps API (see details here). The extension will generate a session token by default -- set this parameter to false to prevent this.

Notice The widget will not work properly unless you provide a valid API key. See https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/get-api-key for more details.

Then you can add geocomplete widgets to your models fields in your views:

<?= $form->field($model, 'address')
         ->widget(\fv\yii\geocomplete\Widget::class) ?>

Yii2 Geocomplete configure the jQuery plugin to look for the data-geocomplete attribute when address lookup is complete. This makes easy to get other values from the address. For example, to get the country code and postal code in separate fields, use the following code:

<?= $form->field($model, 'address')
     ->widget(\fv\yii\geocomplete\Widget::class) ?>

<?= $form->field($model,
                 'postal_code', [
                     'inputOptions' => [
                         'data-geocomplete' => 'postal_code',
                     ],
                 ]) ?>

<?= $form->field($model,
                 'country_code', [
    	             'inputOptions' => [
                         'data-geocomplete' => 'country_short',
                     ],
                 ]) ?>

Widget Options

Yii2 Geocomplete widgets accept the following options:

• options - standard tag attributes

• container - jQuery selector of HTML container that Yii2 Geocomplete should look for data-geocomplete-tagged elements. Default is the parent form (obtained from Javascript).

• geocompleteOptions - object with Geocomplete plugin options. See https://ubilabs.github.io/geocomplete/ for a complete list.
