I can’t find it on the Coda pack gallery, but he made the source coda available on github. It’s super easy to copy-paste that source code and make your own pack out of it; let me know if you need help doing that.
Thanks for putting me in the right direction @Ryan_Martens2
And looks awesome @Josh_Shupack Excited to see your pack coming out, I’m pretty confident it will solve my idea.
Maybe one of you can elaborate a bit on the map implementation in Coda. I’m quite new to Coda, but have developed a ton in e.g. Bubble.io. My usually go-to would be bubble, but Coda seems perfect for very heavy data-entry apps, so I’m trying it out for some of those projects.
In Bubble it’s possible to embed interactive maps, where one can click the pin and e.g. jump to a new page etc. It seems the only way maps are used in Coda is by transforming them into static images. Is this a limitation of Coda or is it possible to make interactive maps?
I’m working on creating something that will do this. I’ll post it here when it’s ready, but I’d love to talk to you and get specifics on what you’re looking for so I can make sure it covers your use case. I’ll send you a private message on twitter so we can connect.
It seems that the pack is having some trouble. I can use some of the functions (driving time and driving distance), but the MapImage is not working. Is the pack broken? I can see that the release is some months old; maybe Google changed something in the API in the meantime.
I’d like to get confirmation of this pack staying current. I’d like to implement it in some documents (if the MapImage gets to work) and it would be a bad idea to include the pack in the document if it’s not maintained.
@Giovanni_Sades The static MapImage is working for me in my docs. It’s not using Google, but LocationIQ. Maybe you can share your doc with me so I can have a look, or just the URL of the image for the map? There is a limit to how many icons you can have on a map based on the length of the URL. Also, sometimes if there are a lot of requests, it goes over my API limit. Let me know if any of that helps.
Yes, so it’s a little confusing. It wasn’t really designed to show just 1 marker, it’s expecting a list of markers. You can wrap the SimpleLatLon() in array like this to turn it into a list with just 1 item in it: Array(SimpleLatLon("Paseo del Pedregal 1105,01900,CDMX","mx"))
So the whole thing looks like this:
[LocationIQ Mapping]::MapImage(Array([LocationIQ Mapping]::SimpleLatLon("Paseo del Pedregal 1105,01900,CDMX","mx")), "red", 1, "500x300")
Let me know if there is anything else I can do to help.
