How do I force Google-Maps-for-Rails gem to geocode a model? I dont’ want to re-geocode every member, just some.
Along those lines, once a model member has been geocoded and the lon/lat stored in the db, how do I clear that so it re-geocodes?
Could be the same answer for both questions, I don’t know.
Your question raised a problem in the gem: it geocoded after each save, not checking the boolean reference. It’s fixed now in 0.4.1
By default
gmaps == true, then geocoding is skippedYou can configure it the way you want.
BTW, you could even use the geocoding function:
And saves directly the values you want.
