geocoder = OpenCage::Geocoder.new(api_key: 'your-api-key-here')
Pass a string containing the query or address to be geocoded to the geocode
method:
geocoder.geocode("82 Clerkenwell Road, London")
# => [ 51.5221558691, -0.100838524406 ]
You can also reverse_geocode
to get an address from a pair of coordinates:
geocoder.reverse_geocode(51.5019951, -0.0698806)
# => 'Bermondsey Wall West, Bermondsey, London Boro ...
# input type is flexible
geocoder.reverse_geocode([51.5019951, '-0.0698806'])
# => 'Bermondsey Wall West, Bermondsey, London Boro ...
