NAME

Geo::Coder::Mappy - Geocode addresses with the Mappy AJAX API

SYNOPSIS


            

              
              
use Geo::Coder::Mappy;
my $geocoder = Geo::Coder::Mappy->new(
    token => 'Your Mappy AJAX API token'
);
my $location = $geocoder->geocode(
    location => '47 Rue de Charonne, 75011 Paris, France'
);

DESCRIPTION

The Geo::Coder::Mappy module provides an interface to the geocoding functionality of the Mappy AJAX API.

METHODS

new


            

              
              
$geocoder = Geo::Coder::Mappy->new('Your Mappy AJAX API token')
$geocoder = Geo::Coder::Mappy->new(
    token => 'Your Mappy AJAX API token',
    https => 1,
    debug => 1,
)

Creates a new geocoding object.

An API token can be obtained here: http://connect.mappy.com/en/product/add/free

Accepts an optional https parameter for securing network traffic.

Accepts an optional ua parameter for passing in a custom LWP::UserAgent object.

geocode


            

              
              
$location = $geocoder->geocode(location => $location)
@locations = $geocoder->geocode(location => $location)

In scalar context, this method returns the first location result; and in list context it returns all location results.

Each location result is a hashref; a typical example looks like:
