Laravel CloseTo
===============

[](#laravel-closeto)

Laravel CloseTo is a cheeky little eloquent scope to get points within a certain radius area from a given latitude or longitude based off of the Haversine formula.

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

[](#installation)

```
$ composer require jaejamesdev/laravelcloseto
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

#### Basic Example:

[](#basic-example)

```
YourModel::closeTo($latitude, $longitude, $radiusInMiles);
```

The above example relies on your database having a column called 'latitude' and a column called 'longitude'. Should your database have a naming structure that is different to 'latitude' and 'longitude', no worries at all, you can use the below:

#### Advanced Example:

[](#advanced-example)

```
YourModel::closeTo($latitude, $longitude, $radiusInMiles, $latiudeColumnName, $longitudeColumnName);
```

#### Ordering By Distance:

[](#ordering-by-distance)

If you want to get the closest results within a radius ordered by distance, this plugin can take care of that for you in a very simple way!

```
YourModel::closeTo($latitude, $longitude, $radiusInMiles)->orderBy('distance', 'asc');
```

Todos
-----

[](#todos)

```
- Add in option to convert between miles and kilometers.
- Improve documentation.

```
