Informations about the package cakephp-geodistance
CakePHP GeoDistance Plugin
A CakePHP 3 Behavior for querying geocoded data by distance.
CakePHP-GeoDistance is a CakePHP 3 behavior for querying geocoded data based on cartographic distance using the spherical cosine law. It is great for 'find my nearest X' or 'find Y near me' type queries. If your database doesn't already have latitude/longitude co-ordinates attached to your geographic data, you can add them using a geocoding plugin. Try this one.
Installation
Install from packagist using composer.
Add the following to your composer.json:
and run composer install or composer update, as applicable.
Supported databases
Only MySQL and Postgres are supported.
Usage
Loading the plugin
Add the code Plugin::load('Chris48s/GeoDistance'); to your bootstrap.php.
Using the Behavior
Add the behavior in your table class.
Configuration
By default, the behavior assumes your table contains columns called latitude
and longitude, and you want to perform queries in miles. These can be changed
though. Simply pass an array of options when attaching the behavior:
Supported units are miles or kilometres.
Querying data
Having added the behavior to a table class, you now have access to the query
method find('bydistance'), which you can use to find database records within
radius of a given point:
latitude, longitude and radius are required parameters. If required
parameters are missing or invalid, an exception of class GeoDistanceInvalidArgumentException
will be thrown.
You can also pass additional conditions or parameters to the query and override the default for 'units', for example:
The method find('bydistance') returns a CakePHP query object, so you can chain
additional methods on to this (e.g: ->order(), ->limit(), etc).
