Google Address

The Google Address module provides GooglePlacesAddressDriver for AddressField.

Use it when an application needs Google Places autocomplete or a stricter address lookup flow than the default address driver.

Install​

composer require qore-next/google-address

The package auto-discovers GoogleAddressServiceProvider.

No migrations, config or routes are published by this module. Install it, enable it in the modules UI and configure the API key when Google lookup is needed.

Usage​

Use AddressField normally:

AddressField::make('address');

Or set the driver manually:

AddressField::make('address')
    ->setDriver(new GooglePlacesAddressDriver(includedRegionCodes: ['nl', 'de']));

If no API key is configured, the driver can still use Dutch postcode lookup for matching searches.

Configure​

Enable the module in Qore's modules UI, then save the Google API key in the module settings.

The key is stored as:

qore()->settings()->getSetting('google-address.api_key');

The settings form validates the key against Google Places autocomplete.

Boot Behaviour​

When the setting exists, the module sets GooglePlacesAddressDriver as the default AddressService driver.
