GoogleMapsAPI::DistanceMatrix

This is a wrapper around the Google Maps Distance Matrix API.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'google_maps_api-distance_matrix'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install google_maps_api-distance_matrix

Usage

GoogleMapsAPI::DistanceMatrix.calculate(origins, destinations, options = {})

Origins and destinations are arrays of strings or anything that supports to_ary. Options is a Symbols Hash with optional parameters. (See https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/distancematrix/#RequestParameters for more information).

For Google Business/Enterprise requests, include the :key, :client and optionally, :channel in the options hash.

Examples:

origins = ["350, 5th Ave, NY", "100, 56th St, NY", [40.764291, -73.979169], ...]
destinations = ["673, 45th St, NY", [40.763641,-73.987473], ...]
options = {:language => 'pt'}
GoogleMapsAPI::DistanceMatrix.calculate(origins, destinations, options)
# => #<GoogleMapsAPI::DistanceMatrix::Response:0x00000001f2b510...>

The GoogleMapsAPI::DistanceMatrix::Response object mimics the API JSON structure.

Contributing

I am new to Ruby and Testing. We need better specs.

1. Fork it ( https://github.com/zavan/google_maps_api-distance_matrix/fork )
2. Create your feature branch (git checkout -b my-new-feature)
3. Commit your changes (git commit -am 'Add some feature')
4. Push to the branch (git push origin my-new-feature)
5. Create a new Pull Request

Important

• Do not touch the version;
• Write specs for new features;
• Be independent of Rails stuff;
• All specs must pass.
