directions(origin, destination, options \\ []) View Source
Retrives the directions from one point to the other.
Args:
origin
— The address, textual latitude/longitude value, or place ID from which you wish to calculate directions. If you pass an address, the Directions service geocodes the string and converts it to a latitude/longitude coordinate to calculate directions. This coordinate may be different from that returned by the Google Maps Geocoding API, for example a building entrance rather than its center. Place IDs must be prefixed withplace_id:
. The place ID may only be specified if the request includes an API key or a Google Maps APIs Premium Plan client ID. You can retrieve place IDs from the Google Maps Geocoding API and the Google Places API (including Place Autocomplete).destination
— The address, textual latitude/longitude value, or place ID to which you wish to calculate directions. The options for the destination parameter are the same as for the origin parameter, described above.
Options:
mode
(defaults to "driving") — Specifies the mode of transport to use when calculating directions. Valid values and other request details are specified in Travel Modes section.waypoints
— Specifies an array of waypoints. Waypoints alter a route by routing it through the specified location(s). A waypoint is specified as a latitude/longitude coordinate, an encoded polyline, a place ID, or an address which will be geocoded. Encoded polylines must be prefixed with enc: and followed by a colon (:). Place IDs must be prefixed with place_id:. The place ID may only be specified if the request includes an API key or a Google Maps APIs Premium Plan client ID. Waypoints are only supported for driving, walking and bicycling directions.alternatives
— If set to true, specifies that the Directions service may provide more than one route alternative in the response. Note that providing route alternatives may increase the response time from the server.avoid
— Indicates that the calculated route(s) should avoid the indicated features. Supports the following arguments:tolls
indicates that the calculated route should avoid toll roads/bridges.highways
indicates that the calculated route should avoid highways.ferries
indicates that the calculated route should avoid ferries.indoor
indicates that the calculated route should avoid indoor steps for walking and transit directions. Only requests that include an API key or a Google Maps APIs Premium Plan client ID will receive indoor steps by default.
language
— The language in which to return results.- See the list of supported languages.
- If
language
is not supplied, the API attempts to use the preferred language as specified in thelanguage
config, or the native language of the domain from which request is sent. - If a name is not available in the preferred language, the API uses the closest match.
- The preferred language has a small influence on the set of results that the API chooses to return, and the order in which they are returned. The geocoder interprets abbreviations differently depending on language, such as the abbreviations for street types, or synonyms that may be valid in one language but not in another. For example, utca and tér are synonyms for street in Hungarian.
units
— Specifies the unit system to use displaying results.region
— Specifies the region code, specified as a ccTLD ("top-level domain") two-character value.arrival_time
— Specifies the desired time of arrival for transit directions, in seconds since midnight, January 1, 1970 UTC. You can specify eitherdeparture_time
orarrival_time
, but not both. Note that arrival_time must be specified as an integer.departure_time
— Specifies the desired time of departure. You can specify the time as an integer in seconds since midnight, January 1, 1970 UTC. Alternatively, you can specify a value ofnow
, which sets the departure time to the current time (correct to the nearest second). The departure time may be specified in two cases:- For requests where the travel mode is transit: You can
optionally specify one of
departure_time
orarrival_time
. If neither time is specified, thedeparture_time
defaults to now (that is, the departure time defaults to the current time). - For requests where the travel mode is driving: You can specify
the
departure_time
to receive a route and trip duration (response field:duration_in_traffic
) that take traffic conditions into account. This option is only available if the request contains a valid API key, or a valid Google Maps APIs Premium Plan client ID and signature. Thedeparture_time
must be set to the current time or some time in the future. It cannot be in the past.
- For requests where the travel mode is transit: You can
optionally specify one of
traffic_model
(defaults tobest_guess
) — Specifies the assumptions to use when calculating time in traffic. This setting affects the value returned in theduration_in_traffic
field in the response, which contains the predicted time in traffic based on historical averages. Thetraffic_model
parameter may only be specified for driving directions where the request includes adeparture_time
, and only if the request includes an API key or a Google Maps APIs Premium Plan client ID. The available values for this parameter are:best_guess
(default) indicates that the returnedduration_in_traffic
should be the best estimate of travel time given what is known about both historical traffic conditions and live traffic. Live traffic becomes more important the closer thedeparture_time
is to now.pessimistic
indicates that the returnedduration_in_traffic
should be longer than the actual travel time on most days, though occasional days with particularly bad traffic conditions may exceed this value.optimistic
indicates that the returnedduration_in_traffic
should be shorter than the actual travel time on most days, though occasional days with particularly good traffic conditions may be faster than this value. The default value ofbest_guess
will give the most useful predictions for the vast majority of use cases. Thebest_guess
travel time prediction may be shorter thanoptimistic
, or alternatively, longer thanpessimistic
, due to the way thebest_guess
prediction model integrates live traffic information.

elevation(coordinates, options \\ [])
View Source
elevation([coordinate()], options()) :: GoogleMaps.Response.t()
elevation([coordinate()], options()) :: GoogleMaps.Response.t()
Queries locations on the earth for elevation data.
Args:
coordinates
— Either a single coordinate or multiple coordinates passed as an array from which to return elevation data.
Options:
samples
- The number of sample points along a path for which to return elevation data. The samples parameter divides the given path into an ordered set of equidistant points along the path.
By default, if samples
option is not set, the function requests for elevation
data for each specific coordinates passed in as argument. Otherwise, elevation
requests are instead sampled along the given path.
Returns
This function returns {:ok, body}
if the request is successful, and
Google returns data. The returned body is a map contains two root
elements:
* `status` contains metadata on the request.
* `results` contains an array of elevation result with the following:
* `location` (containing `lat` and `lng`) of the coordinate for which
elevation data is being computed.
* `elevation` indicating the elevation of the coordinate in meters.
* `resolution` indicating the maximum distance between data points from
which the elevation was interpolated, in meters. This property will be
missing if the resolution is not known. Note that elevation data
becomes more coarse (larger resolution values) when multiple points are
passed. To obtain the most accurate elevation value for a point, it
should be queried independently.
It returns {:error, error}
when there is HTTP errors, or
{:error, status, error_message}
when the request is successful, but Google
returns status codes different than "OK", i.e.:
- "INVALID_REQUEST"
- "OVER_DAILY_LIMIT"

geocode(input, options \\ [])
View Source
geocode(map() | String.t() | coordinate() | place_id(), options()) ::
GoogleMaps.Response.t()
geocode(map() | String.t() | coordinate() | place_id(), options()) :: GoogleMaps.Response.t()
Converts between addresses and geographic coordinates.
Geocoding is the process of converting addresses (like "1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA") into geographic coordinates (like latitude 37.423021 and longitude -122.083739), which you can use to place markers on a map, or position the map.
Reverse geocoding is the process of converting geographic coordinates into a human-readable address. The Google Maps Geocoding API's reverse geocoding service also lets you find the address for a given place ID.
Args:
address
— The street address that you want to geocode, in the format used by the national postal service of the country concerned. Additional address elements such as business names and unit, suite or floor numbers should be avoided.or
components
— A component filter for which you wish to obtain a geocode. Thecomponents
filter will also be accepted as an optional parameter if an address is provided.--- Reverse geocoding ---
latlng
: The latitude and longitude values specifying the location for which you wish to obtain the closest, human-readable address.or
place_id
— The place ID of the place for which you wish to obtain the human-readable address. The place ID is a unique identifier that can be used with other Google APIs.
Options:
bounds
— The bounding box of the viewport within which to bias geocode results more prominently. This parameter will only influence, not fully restrict, results from the geocoder.language
— The language in which to return results.region
— The region code, specified as a ccTLD ("top-level domain") two-character value. This parameter will only influence, not fully restrict, results from the geocoder.components
— The component filters, separated by a pipe (|). Each component filter consists of a component:value pair and will fully restrict the results from the geocoder. For more information see Component Filtering.result_type
— One or more address types, separated by a pipe (|
). Examples of address types:country
,street_address
,postal_code
. For a full list of allowable values, see the address types. Note for reverse geocoding requests.location_type
— One or more location types, separated by a pipe (|
). Specifying a type will restrict the results to this type. If multiple types are specified, the API will return all addresses that match any of the types. Note for reverse geocoding requests. The following values are supported:- "ROOFTOP" restricts the results to addresses for which we have location information accurate down to street address precision.
- "RANGE_INTERPOLATED" restricts the results to those that reflect an approximation (usually on a road) interpolated between two precise points (such as intersections). An interpolated range generally indicates that rooftop geocodes are unavailable for a street address.
- "GEOMETRIC_CENTER" restricts the results to geometric centers of a location such as a polyline (for example, a street) or polygon (region).
"APPROXIMATE" restricts the results to those that are characterized as approximate.
If both
result_type
andlocation_type
restrictions are present then the API will return only those results that matches both theresult_type
and thelocation_type
restrictions.
Returns
This function returns {:ok, body}
if the request is successful, and
Google returns data. The returned body is a map contains two root
elements:
* `status` contains metadata on the request.
* `results` contains an array of geocoded address information and
geometry information.
Generally, only one entry in the results
array is returned for
address lookups, though the geocoder may return several results when
address queries are ambiguous. Reverse geocoder returns more than one
result, from most specific to least specific.
A typical result is made up of the following fields:
The
types[]
array indicates the type of the returned result. This array contains a set of zero or more tags identifying the type of feature returned in the result. For example, a geocode of "Chicago" returns "locality" which indicates that "Chicago" is a city, and also returns "political" which indicates it is a political entity.formatted_address
is a string containing the human-readable address of this location. Often this address is equivalent to the "postal address," which sometimes differs from country to country. (Note that some countries, such as the United Kingdom, do not allow distribution of true postal addresses due to licensing restrictions.) This address is generally composed of one or more address components. For example, the address "111 8th Avenue, New York, NY" contains separate address components for "111" (the street number), "8th Avenue" (the route), "New York" (the city) and "NY" (the US state). These address components contain additional information as noted below.address_components[]
is an array containing the separate address components, as explained above. Note thataddress_components[]
may contain more address components than noted within theformatted_address
. Eachaddress_component
typically contains:types[]
is an array indicating the type of the address component.long_name
is the full text description or name of the address component as returned by the Geocoder.short_name
is an abbreviated textual name for the address component, if available. For example, an address component for the state of Alaska may have along_name
of "Alaska" and ashort_name
of "AK" using the 2-letter postal abbreviation.
postcode_localities[]
is an array denoting all the localities contained in a postal code. This is only present when the result is a postal code that contains multiple localities.geometry
contains the following information:location
contains the geocoded latitude,longitude value. For normal address lookups, this field is typically the most important.location_type
stores additional data about the specified location. The following values are currently supported:- "ROOFTOP" indicates that the returned result is a precise geocode for which we have location information accurate down to street address precision.
- "RANGE_INTERPOLATED" indicates that the returned result reflects an approximation (usually on a road) interpolated between two precise points (such as intersections). Interpolated results are generally returned when rooftop geocodes are unavailable for a street address.
- "GEOMETRIC_CENTER" indicates that the returned result is the geometric center of a result such as a polyline (for example, a street) or polygon (region).
- "APPROXIMATE" indicates that the returned result is approximate.
viewport
contains the recommended viewport for displaying the returned result, specified as two latitude,longitude values defining the southwest and northeast corner of the viewport bounding box. Generally the viewport is used to frame a result when displaying it to a user.bounds
(optionally returned) stores the bounding box which can fully contain the returned result. Note that these bounds may not match the recommended viewport. (For example, San Francisco includes the Farallon islands, which are technically part of the city, but probably should not be returned in the viewport.)
partial_match
indicates that the geocoder did not return an exact match for the original request, though it was able to match part of the requested address. You may wish to examine the original request for misspellings and/or an incomplete address. Partial matches most often occur for street addresses that do not exist within the locality you pass in the request. Partial matches may also be returned when a request matches two or more locations in the same locality. For example, "21 Henr St, Bristol, UK" will return a partial match for both Henry Street and Henrietta Street. Note that if a request includes a misspelled address component, the geocoding service may suggest an alternative address. Suggestions triggered in this way will also be marked as a partial match.place_id
is a unique identifier that can be used with other Google APIs. For example, you can use the place_id in a Google Places API request to get details of a local business, such as phone number, opening hours, user reviews, and more.

place_autocomplete(input, options \\ []) View Source
Automatically fill in the name and/or address of a place.
The Place Autocomplete service is a web service that returns place predictions in response to an HTTP request. The request specifies a textual search string and optional geographic bounds. The service can be used to provide autocomplete functionality for text-based geographic searches, by returning places such as businesses, addresses and points of interest as a user types.
The Place Autocomplete service can match on full words as well as substrings. Applications can therefore send queries as the user types, to provide on-the-fly place predictions.
The returned predictions are designed to be presented to the user to aid them in selecting the desired place. You can send a Place Details request for more information about any of the places returned.
Args:
input
— The text string on which to search. The Place Autocomplete service will return candidate matches based on this string and order results based on their perceived relevance.
Options:
offset
— The position, in the input term, of the last character that the service uses to match predictions. For example, if the input is 'Google' and theoffset
is 3, the service will match on 'Goo'. The string determined by the offset is matched against the first word in the input term only. For example, if the input term is 'Google abc' and theoffset
is 3, the service will attempt to match against 'Goo abc'. If no offset is supplied, the service will use the whole term. The offset should generally be set to the position of the text caret.location
— The point around which you wish to retrieve place information. Must be specified as latitude,longitude.radius
— The distance (in meters) within which to return place results. Note that setting aradius
biases results to the indicated area, but may not fully restrict results to the specified area. See Location Biasing below.language
— The language code, indicating in which language the results should be returned, if possible. Searches are also biased to the selected language; results in the selected language may be given a higher ranking. See the list of supported languages and their codes. Note that we often update supported languages so this list may not be exhaustive. If language is not supplied, the Place Autocomplete service will attempt to use the native language of the domain from which the request is sent.types
— The types of place results to return. See Place Types below. If no type is specified, all types will be returned.components
— A grouping of places to which you would like to restrict your results. Currently, you can usecomponents
to filter by country. The country must be passed as a two character, ISO 3166-1 Alpha-2 compatible country code. For example:components=country:fr
would restrict your results to places within France.
Location Biasing
You may bias results to a specified circle by passing a location
&
a radius
parameter. This instructs the Place Autocomplete service
to prefer showing results within that circle. Results outside of
the defined area may still be displayed. You can use the components
parameter to filter results to show only those places within a
specified country.
Note: If you do not supply the location and radius, the API will attempt to detect the server's location from their IP address, and will bias the results to that location. If you would prefer to have no location bias, set the location to '0,0' and radius to '20000000' (20 thousand kilometers), to encompass the entire world.
Tip: Establishment results generally do not rank highly enough to
show in results when the search area is large. If you want
establishments to appear in mixed establishment/geocode results, you
can specify a smaller radius. Alternatively, use types=establishment
to restrict results to establishments only.
Place Types
You may restrict results from a Place Autocomplete request to be of
a certain type by passing a types
parameter. The parameter specifies
a type or a type collection, as listed in the supported types below.
If nothing is specified, all types are returned. In general only a
single type is allowed. The exception is that you can safely mix the
geocode
and establishment
types, but note that this will have the
same effect as specifying no types. The supported types are:
geocode
instructs the Place Autocomplete service to return only geocoding results, rather than business results. Generally, you use this request to disambiguate results where the location specified may be indeterminate.address
instructs the Place Autocomplete service to return only geocoding results with a precise address. Generally, you use this request when you know the user will be looking for a fully specified address.establishment
instructs the Place Autocomplete service to return only business results.the
(regions)
type collection instructs the Places service to return any result matching the following types:locality
sublocality
postal_code
country
administrative_area_level_1
administrative_area_level_2
the
(cities)
type collection instructs the Places service to return results that matchlocality
oradministrative_area_level_3
.
Returns
This function returns {:ok, body}
if the request is successful, and
Google returns data. The returned body is a map contains two root
elements:
status
contains metadata on the request.predictions
contains an array of places, with information about the place. See Place Autocomplete Results for information about these results. The Google API returns up to 5 results.Of particular interest within the results are the place_id elements, which can be used to request more specific details about the place via a separate query. See Place Details Requests.
It returns
{:error, error}
when there is HTTP errors, or{:error, status, error_message}
when the request is successful, but Google returns status codes different than "OK", i.e.:- "NOT_FOUND"
- "ZERO_RESULTS"
- "MAX_WAYPOINTS_EXCEEDED"
- "INVALID_REQUEST"
- "OVER_QUERY_LIMIT"
- "REQUEST_DENIED"
- "UNKNOWN_ERROR"
Place Autocomplete Results
Each prediction result contains the following fields:
description
contains the human-readable name for the returned result. Forestablishment
results, this is usually the business name.place_id
is a textual identifier that uniquely identifies a place. To retrieve information about the place, pass this identifier in theplaceId
field of a Google Places API request.terms
contains an array of terms identifying each section of the returned description (a section of the description is generally terminated with a comma). Each entry in the array has a value field, containing the text of the term, and anoffset
field, defining the start position of this term in the description, measured in Unicode characters.types
contains an array of types that apply to this place. For example: [ "political", "locality" ] or [ "establishment", "geocode" ].matched_substrings
contains an array with offset value and length. These describe the location of the entered term in the prediction result text, so that the term can be highlighted if desired.Note: The Place Autocomplete response does not include the
scope
oralt_ids
fields that you may see in search results or place details. This is because Autocomplete returns only Google-scoped place IDs. It does not return app-scoped place IDs that have not yet been accepted into the Google Places database. For more details about Google-scoped and app-scoped place IDs, see the documentation on adding places.

place_details(place_id, options \\ []) View Source
A Place Details request returns more comprehensive information about the indicated place such as its complete address, phone number, user rating and reviews.
Args:
place_id
— A textual identifier that uniquely identifies a place, returned from a Place Search. For more information about place IDs, see the place ID overview.Can be in the following formats:
tuple:
{:place_id, "ChIJy5RYvL23t4kR3U1oXsAxEzs"}
place_id string:
"place_id:ChIJy5RYvL23t4kR3U1oXsAxEzs"
string:
"ChIJy5RYvL23t4kR3U1oXsAxEzs"
Options:
language
— The language code, indicating in which language the results should be returned, if possible. Searches are also biased to the selected language; results in the selected language may be given a higher ranking. See the list of supported languages and their codes. Note that we often update supported languages so this list may not be exhaustive. If language is not supplied, the Places service will attempt to use the native language of the domain from which the request is sent.region
— The region code, specified as a ccTLD (country code top-level domain) two-character value. Most ccTLD codes are identical to ISO 3166-1 codes, with some exceptions. This parameter will only influence, not fully restrict, results. If more relevant results exist outside of the specified region, they may be included. When this parameter is used, the country name is omitted from the resultingformatted_address
for results in the specified region.
Returns
This function returns {:ok, body}
if the request is successful, and
Google returns data. The returned body is a map that contains three root
elements:
status
contains metadata on the request.result
contains the detailed information about the place requestedhtml_attributions
contains a set of attributions about this listing which must be displayed to the user.
Each result contains the following fields:
address_components[]
is an array containing the separate components applicable to this address. Each address component typically contains the following fields:types[]
is an array indicating the type of the address component.long_name
is the full text description or name of the address component as returned by the Geocoder.short_name
is an abbreviated textual name for the address component, if available. For example, an address component for the state of Alaska may have along_name
of "Alaska" and ashort_name
of "AK" using the 2-letter postal abbreviation.
Note the following facts about the address_components[] array:
The array of address components may contain more components than the
formatted_address.
The array does not necessarily include all the political entities that contain an address, apart from those included in the formatted_address. To retrieve all the political entities that contain a specific address, you should use reverse geocoding, passing the latitude/longitude of the address as a parameter to the request
The format of the response is not guaranteed to remain the same between requests. In particular, the number of
address_components
varies based on the address requested and can change over time for the same address. A component can change position in the array. The type of the component can change. A particular component may be missing in a later response.
formatted_address
is a string containing the human-readable address of this place.Often this address is equivalent to the postal address. Note that some countries, such as the United Kingdom, do not allow distribution of true postal addresses due to licensing restrictions.
The formatted address is logically composed of one or more address components. For example, the address "111 8th Avenue, New York, NY" consists of the following components: "111" (the street number), "8th Avenue" (the route), "New York" (the city) and "NY" (the US state).
Do not parse the formatted address programmatically. Instead you should use the individual address components, which the API response includes in addition to the formatted address field
formatted_phone_number
contains the place's phone number in its local format. For example, theformatted_phone_number
for Google's Sydney, Australia office is(02) 9374 4000
.adr_address
is a representation of the place's address in the adr microformat.geometry
contains the following information:location
contains the geocoded latitude,longitude value for this place.viewport
contains the preferred viewport when displaying this place on a map as aLatLngBounds
if it is known.
icon
contains the URL of a suggested icon which may be displayed to the user when indicating this result on a map.international_phone_number
contains the place's phone number in international format. International format includes the country code, and is prefixed with the plus (+) sign. For example, theinternational_phone_number
for Google's Sydney, Australia office is+61 2 9374 4000
name
contains the human-readable name for the returned result. Forestablishment
results, this is usually the canonicalized business name.opening_hours
contains the following information:open_now
is a boolean value indicating if the place is open at the current time.periods[]
is an array of opening periods covering seven days, starting from Sunday, in chronological order. Each period contains:open
contains a pair of day and time objects describing when the place opens:day
a number from 0–6, corresponding to the days of the week, starting on Sunday. For example, 2 means Tuesday.time
may contain a time of day in 24-hour hhmm format. Values are in the range 0000–2359. Thetime
will be reported in the place’s time zone.
close
may contain a pair of day and time objects describing when the place closes. Note: If a place is always open, the close section will be missing from the response. Clients can rely on always-open being represented as an open period containing day with value 0 and time with value 0000, and no close.
weekday_text
is an array of seven strings representing the formatted opening hours for each day of the week. If a language parameter was specified in the Place Details request, the Places Service will format and localize the opening hours appropriately for that language. The ordering of the elements in this array depends on the language parameter. Some languages start the week on Monday while others start on Sunday.
permanently_closed
is a boolean flag indicating whether the place has permanently shut down (valuetrue
). If the place is not permanently closed, the flag is absent from the response.photos[]
— an array of photo objects, each containing a reference to an image. A Place Details request may return up to ten photos. More information about place photos and how you can use the images in your application can be found in the Place Photos documentation. A photo object is described as:photo_reference
— a string used to identify the photo when you perform a Photo request.height
— the maximum height of the image.width
— the maximum width of the image.html_attributions[]
— contains any required attributions. This field will always be present, but may be empty.
place_id
: A textual identifier that uniquely identifies a place. To retrieve information about the place, pass this identifier in the placeId field of a Places API request. For more information about place IDs, see the place ID overview.scope
: Indicates the scope of the place_id. The possible values are:APP
: The place ID is recognised by your application only. This is because your application added the place, and the place has not yet passed the moderation process.GOOGLE
: The place ID is available to other applications and on Google Maps.
alt_ids
— An array of zero, one or more alternative place IDs for the place, with a scope related to each alternative ID. Note: This array may be empty or not present. If present, it contains the following fields:place_id
— The most likely reason for a place to have an alternative place ID is if your application adds a place and receives an application-scoped place ID, then later receives a Google-scoped place ID after passing the moderation process.scope
— The scope of an alternative place ID will always be APP, indicating that the alternative place ID is recognised by your application only.
price_level
— The price level of the place, on a scale of0
to4
. The exact amount indicated by a specific value will vary from region to region. Price levels are interpreted as follows:0
— Free1
— Inexpensive2
— Moderate3
— Expensive4
— Very Expensive
rating
contains the place's rating, from 1.0 to 5.0, based on aggregated user reviews.reviews[]
a JSON array of up to five reviews. If a language parameter was specified in the Place Details request, the Places Service will bias the results to prefer reviews written in that language. Each review consists of several components:aspects
contains a collection of AspectRating objects, each of which provides a rating of a single attribute of the establishment. The first object in the collection is considered the primary aspect. Each AspectRating is described as:type
the name of the aspect that is being rated. The following types are supported:appeal
,atmosphere
,decor
,facilities
,food
,overall
,quality
andservice
.rating
the user's rating for this particular aspect, from 0 to 3.

the name of the user who submitted the review. Anonymous reviews are attributed to "A Google user".author_url
the URL to the user's Google Maps Local Guides profile, if available.language
an IETF language code indicating the language used in the user's review. This field contains the main language tag only, and not the secondary tag indicating country or region. For example, all the English reviews are tagged as 'en', and not 'en-AU' or 'en-UK' and so on.rating
the user's overall rating for this place. This is a whole number, ranging from 1 to 5.text
the user's review. When reviewing a location with Google Places, text reviews are considered optional. Therefore, this field may by empty. Note that this field may include simple HTML markup. For example, the entity reference&
may represent an ampersand character.time
the time that the review was submitted, measured in the number of seconds since since midnight, January 1, 1970 UTC.
types[]
contains an array of feature types describing the given result. See the list of supported types.url
contains the URL of the official Google page for this place. This will be the Google-owned page that contains the best available information about the place. Applications must link to or embed this page on any screen that shows detailed results about the place to the user.utc_offset
contains the number of minutes this place’s current timezone is offset from UTC. For example, for places in Sydney, Australia during daylight saving time this would be 660 (+11 hours from UTC), and for places in California outside of daylight saving time this would be -480 (-8 hours from UTC).vicinity
lists a simplified address for the place, including the street name, street number, and locality, but not the province/state, postal code, or country. For example, Google's Sydney, Australia office has a vicinity value of 48 Pirrama Road, Pyrmont.website
lists the authoritative website for this place, such as a business' homepage.

place_nearby(coordinate(), integer(), options()) :: GoogleMaps.Response.t()
Search for nearby places based on location and radius.
The Google Places API Web Service allows you to query for place information on a variety of categories, such as: establishments, prominent points of interest, geographic locations, and more. You can search for places either by proximity or a text string. A Place Search returns a list of places along with summary information about each place; additional information is available via a Place Details query
Args:
location
— The latitude/longitude around which to retrieve place information. Can be in string format:"123.456,-123.456"
or tuple format:{123.456, -123.456}
radius

(described under Optional parameters below) is specified
Options:
keyword
— The text string on which to search. The Places service will return candidate matches based on this string and order results based on their perceived relevance.language
— The language code, indicating in which language the results should be returned, if possible. Searches are also biased to the selected language; results in the selected language may be given a higher ranking. See the list of supported languages and their codes. Note that we often update supported languages so this list may not be exhaustive. If language is not supplied, the Places service will attempt to use the native language of the domain from which the request is sent.minprice
andmaxprice
- Restricts results to only those places within the specified price level. Valid values are in the range from0
(most affordable) to4
(most expensive), inclusive. The exact amount indicated by a specific value will vary from region to region.opennow
- Returns only those places that are open for business at the time the query is sent. Places that do not specify opening hours in the Google Places database will not be returned if you include this parameter in your query.name
- A term to be matched against all content that Google has indexed for this place. Equivalent to keyword. The name field is no longer restricted to place names. Values in this field are combined with values in the keyword field and passed as part of the same search string. We recommend using only the keyword parameter for all search terms.type
- Restricts the results to places matching the specified type. Only one type may be specified (if more than one type is provided, all types following the first entry are ignored). See the list of supported types.rankby
- Specifies the order in which results are listed. Note that rankby must not be included if radius(described under Required parameters above) is specified. Possible values are:prominence
- (default). This option sorts results based on their importance. Ranking will favor prominent places within the specified area. Prominence can be affected by a place's ranking in Google's index, global popularity, and other factors.distance
- This option biases search results in ascending order by their distance from the specified location. When distance is specified, one or more of keyword, name, or type is required.

place_query(input, options \\ []) View Source
Provide a query prediction for text-based geographic searches.
The Query Autocomplete service allows you to add on-the-fly geographic query predictions to your application. Instead of searching for a specific location, a user can type in a categorical search, such as "pizza near New York" and the service responds with a list of suggested queries matching the string. As the Query Autocomplete service can match on both full words and substrings, applications can send queries as the user types to provide on-the-fly predictions.
Args:
input
— The text string on which to search. The Places service will return candidate matches based on this string and order results based on their perceived relevance.
Options:
offset
— The character position in the input term at which the service uses text for predictions. For example, if the input is 'Googl' and the completion point is 3, the service will match on 'Goo'. Theoffset
should generally be set to the position of the text caret. If no offset is supplied, the service will use the entire term.location
— The point around which you wish to retrieve place information. Must be specified as latitude,longitude.radius
— The distance (in meters) within which to return place results. Note that setting aradius
biases results to the indicated area, but may not fully restrict results to the specified area. See Location Biasing below.language
— The language code, indicating in which language the results should be returned, if possible. Searches are also biased to the selected language; results in the selected language may be given a higher ranking. See the list of supported languages and their codes. Note that we often update supported languages so this list may not be exhaustive. If language is not supplied, the Places service will attempt to use the native language of the domain from which the request is sent.
Returns
This function returns {:ok, body}
if the request is successful, and
Google returns data. The returned body is a map contains two root
elements:
status
contains metadata on the request.predictions
contains an array of query predictions.Each prediction result contains the following fields:
description
contains the human-readable name for the returned result. Forestablishment
results, this is usually the business name.terms
contains an array of terms identifying each section of the returned description (a section of the description is generally terminated with a comma). Each entry in the array has avalue
field, containing the text of the term, and anoffset
field, defining the start position of this term in the description, measured in Unicode characters.matched_substring
contains anoffset
value and alength
. These describe the location of the entered term in the prediction result text, so that the term can be highlighted if desired.Note that some of the predictions may be places, and the
place_id
,reference
andtype
fields will be included with those predictions. See Place Autocomplete Results for information about these results.

- Specifies the desired time in seconds after midnight, UTC, from January 1, 1970. Google Maps Time Zone API uses timestamp to determine if summer time should be applied. The hours before 1970 can be expressed as negative values.
Options:
language
— The language code, indicating in which language the results should be returned, if possible. Searches are also biased to the selected language; results in the selected language may be given a higher ranking. See the list of supported languages and their codes. Note that we often update supported languages so this list may not be exhaustive. If language is not supplied, the Places service will attempt to use the native language of the domain from which the request is sent.
Returns
This function returns {:ok, body}
if the request is successful, and
Google returns data. It returns either {:error, status}
or {:error, status, error_message}
when there is an error, depending if there's an error message or not.
The returned body is a map that contains four root elements:
dstOffset
The time difference for summer time in seconds. This value will be zero if the time zone is not in daylight saving time during the specified timestamp.rawOffset
The time difference with respect to UTC (in seconds) for the determined location. This does not consider summer timetables.timeZoneId
A string that contains the id. of "tz" in the time zone, such as "United States / Los_Angeles" or "Australia / Sydney"timeZoneName
A string that contains the name in long format the time zone This field will be located if the parameter is configured of language; p. eg, "Pacific Summer Time" or "Summer Time from Eastern Australia".status
contains metadata on the request.
