django-geocoder
Python geocoder wrapper for Django, inspired by Ruby geocoder.
How it works
Looks for an geocoded_by attribute (default = address) in your GEOCODER_MODEL and fills the required_address_components with geocoding data.
Install
# settings.py
GEOCODER_MODEL = 'test_app.Place'Usage
As a mixin
from django.db import models
from django_geocoder.mixins import GeoMixin
class Place(models.Model, GeoMixin):
address = models.CharField()
# [...] locality, postal_code, etc...
required_address_components = {
'locality': ['locality'],
'postal_code': ['postal_code'],
}As a Django command
Performs a geocoding on all objects
$ python manage.py batch_geocodeAs an helper for caching
import django_geocoder as geocoder
# calls `geocoder.get()` under the hoods
result = geocoder.get("Some address")
# same as above, with caching
result = geocoder.get_cached("Some address")
