Question

I am using geocoder and the devise gem. And i am trying to get coupons near user’s location

Coupon Model

def index
  if params[:search].present?
    @coupons = Coupon.near([user_long, user_lat], 50, :order => :distance)
  else
     @coupons = Coupon.all
  end
end 

Application Helper

I have defined the user_long and user_lat

  def user_long
           current_user.longitude
   end


   def user_lat
           current_user.latitude
   end

Devise Gem

I have tried to use the devise gem helper to get the values like so

Coupon Model

def index
  if params[:search].present?
    @coupons = Coupon.near([current_user.longitude, current_user.latitude], 50, :order => :distance)
  else
     @coupons = Coupon.all
  end
end 

I am hitting the walls and celling with this. Can someone help out, i know this is newbie question for but i can’t solve it so save my life?

Answer 1

My mistake was that i that i had the longitude before that latitude, It was taking away the logic

This works.

def index
     @coupons = Coupon.near([current_user.latitude, current_user.longitude], 50, :order => :distance)

end
