keas.googlemap 0.6.0 (beta)

Integration of Google Maps with Zope 3

Introduction

The keas.googlemap package provides an easy way to bring google maps into your zope 3 applications. Some of the features of keas.googlemap are:

• Look up geocodes (latitude and longitude coordinates) for any

query string

• Manage Google Map API keys for multiple domains
• Sort geocodes by distance using the haversine function
• Python representation of a google map that will render all the

necessary javascript to display the map, including geocode markers.

Demo

See for yourself what keas.googlemap is capable of by running the demo. To run the demo, type the following commands:

Download the source from the Zope subversion repository:

$ svn co svn://svn.zope.org/repos/main/keas.googlemap/trunk keas.googlemap
$ cd keas.googlemap

Run the bootstrap.py and buildout scripts:

$ python bootstrap.py
$ ./bin/buildout

Start the demo server:

$ ./bin/demo fg

You should now be able to go http://localhost:8080 and see a google map with options for how the google map should be displayed.

Live Demo

If you are too lazy to try out the demo yourself, you can also see it running at http://demo.carduner.net/keas.googlemap/
