Laravel Geographical
====================

[](#laravel-geographical)

Easily add longitude and latitude columns to your records and use inherited functionality for calculating distances.

First either update your database or add this to a migration for each model:

```
$table->double('longitude');
$table->double('latitude');
```

Finally in your model use:

```
use Geographical;
```

### 1. Distance

[](#1-distance)

Find the distance to all the entries in your table from a particular location.

```
$query = Model::distance($latitude, $longitude);
$asc = $query->orderBy('distance', 'ASC')->get();
```

### 2. Geofence

[](#2-geofence)

Find all the entries in your table inside a circular geo-fence.

```
$query = Model::geofence($latitude, $longitude, $inner_radius, $outer_radius);
$all = $query->get();
```

### Units

[](#units)

The default unit of distance is **miles**. You can change it to **kilometers** by putting this in your model

```
protected static $kilometers = true;
```

### Notes

[](#notes)

1. The method returns a `Eloquent\Builder` object so that you can add optional conditions if you want.
2. You can use `distance` as an aggregate column in the result. (Aggregate columns cannot be used in `WHERE`, use `HAVING` to execute any condition.)
3. If you use different column names for latitude and longitude, mention them in the Model.php

```
const LATITUDE  = 'lat';
const LONGITUDE = 'lng';
```

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

[PHP](https://php.net) 5.6.4+ and [Laravel](http://laravel.com) 5+ are required.

To get the latest version of Laravel Geographical, simply require the project using [Composer](https://getcomposer.org):

```
$ composer require malhal/laravel-geographical
