Hecka Light Geocoder

Unofficial Google Maps Geocoder library.

This API returns JSON-parsed data fetched from the Google Maps Geocoding API.

To use these functions, you must require the hl-geocoder gem:

require 'hl-geocoder'

Before using the library, you must instantiate the class, providing your app's ID, for example:

geocoder = Geocoder.new('thIsIsnOtaReAlKeyOHuieIDGsad7892qe')

Replace geocoder with whatever keyword you use to initialize the API.

• geocoder.geocode(address) - Geocode an address, town name, etc.
• geocoder.reverse_geocode(latitude, longitude) - Reverse geocode an address (give coordinates instead of the place name).

See example.rb for a usage example.

Documentation for the Google Maps Geocoding API can be found here.
