Question

I am trying to geocode 2 addresses in a model using geocoder and I can\'t get gem to work as I want to. Here is the code that I am applying to my model:

Answer 1

The problem and solution are mentioned here.

Add the following before_save and corresponding method to your model to solve the problem. Don't forget to repeat the part of code for the second location (maybe destination):

before_save :geocode_endpoints

  private
  #To enable Geocoder to works with multiple locations
  def geocode_endpoints
    if from_changed?
      geocoded = Geocoder.search(loc1).first
      if geocoded
        self.latitude = geocoded.latitude
        self.longitude = geocoded.longitude
      end
    end
    # Repeat for destination
        if to_changed?
      geocoded = Geocoder.search(loc2).first
      if geocoded
        self.latitude2 = geocoded.latitude
        self.longitude2 = geocoded.longitude
      end
    end
  end
