Play with Google Places in your forms in SilverStripe

composer require firesphere/googlemapsfield

Add the form field to your form and enter your keys in the SiteConfig.

All the information from Google Places is automatically populated in hidden fields. You will have to map these to your own DataObject storage on saving the form.

The fields given from places are:

• GoogleMapsLatField
• GoogleMapsLngField
• subpremise
• street_number
• route
• sublocality_level_1
• locality
• administrative_area_level_1
• country
• postal_code

If you want to change the fields, add custom hidden fields or remove some fields, you can do so via the getExtraFields and setExtraFields methods.

You can only use this field once per form, due to restrictions of the ID's of fields.

Any options you want to add, can be set on the field as an array:

$field = GoogleMapsField::create('MyField');
$field->setCustomOptions(['componentRestrictions' => ['country' => 'nz']]);
