I am currently able to restrict places to only one country, but I also want to restrict on a specific city also. Any ideas how to achieve that? This is my current code:
var autocomplete,
options = {
types: ['geocode'],
componentRestrictions: {country: 'est'}
};
autocomplete = new google.maps.places.Autocomplete(input, options);
google.maps.event.addListener(autocomplete, 'place_changed', function () {
var place = autocomplete.getPlace().formatted_address;
$(input).attr('value',place);
});
As Luke said the places autocomplete allows you to use componentRestrictions to filter by country only.
But you can use a little trick with a search request string. Just add prefix with city name in request.
var prefix = 'Kyiv, ';
$(input).on('input',function(){
var str = input.value;
if(str.indexOf(prefix) == 0) {
// string already started with prefix
return;
} else {
if (prefix.indexOf(str) >= 0) {
// string is part of prefix
input.value = prefix;
} else {
input.value = prefix+str;
}
}
});
