**The success and accuracy of geocoding depends entirely on the API being used to do these lookups.** Most queries work fairly well with the default configuration, but every application has different needs and every API has its particular strengths and weaknesses. If you need better coverage for your application you'll want to get familiar with the large number of supported APIs, listed in the [API Guide](https://github.com/alexreisner/geocoder/blob/master/README_API_GUIDE.md).

This can be a single attribute, but it can also be a method that returns a string assembled from different attributes (eg: `city`, `state`, and `country`).

For MongoDB, use a single field (of type Array) called `coordinates` (i.e., `field :coordinates, type: Array`).

### Latitude/Longitude Order in MongoDB

|
Everywhere coordinates are passed to methods as two-element arrays, Geocoder expects them to be in the order: `[lat, lon]`. However, as per [the GeoJSON spec](http://geojson.org/geojson-spec.html#positions), MongoDB requires that coordinates be stored longitude-first (`[lon, lat]`), so internally they are stored "backwards." Geocoder's methods attempt to hide this, so calling `obj.to_coordinates` (a method added to the object by Geocoder via `geocoded_by`) returns coordinates in the conventional order:

|
153
|
+
```
|
134
154
|
|
135
155

Geocoder adds `location` and `safe_location` methods to the standard `Rack::Request` object so you can easily look up the location of any HTTP request by IP address. For example, in a Rails controller or a Sinatra app:

**The `location` method is vulnerable to trivial IP address spoofing via HTTP headers.** If that's a problem for your application, use `safe_location` instead, but be aware that `safe_location` will *not* try to trace a request's originating IP through proxy headers; you will instead get the location of the last proxy the request passed through, if any (excepting any proxies you have explicitly whitelisted in your Rack config).

In MySQL and Postgres, queries use a bounding box to limit the number of points over which a more precise distance calculation needs to be done. To take advantage of this optimisation, you need to add a composite index on latitude and longitude. In your Rails migration:

In MongoDB, by default, the methods `geocoded_by` and `reverse_geocoded_by` create a geospatial index. You can avoid index creation with the `:skip_index option`, for example:

In either case, it won't try to geocode objects that are already geocoded. The task will print warnings if you exceed the rate limit for your geocoding service. Some services enforce a per-second limit in addition to a per-day limit. To avoid exceeding the per-second limit, you can add a `SLEEP` option to pause between requests for a given amount of time. You can also load objects in batches to save memory, for example:

Geocoder::Lookup::Test.delete_stub('New York, NY')

Notes:
|
536
634
|
|
537
635
|
- Keys must be strings (not symbols) when calling `add_stub` or `set_default_stub`. For example `'country' =>` not `:country =>`.
|
538
|
-
- To clear stubs (e.g. prior to another spec), use `Geocoder::Lookup::Test.reset`. This will clear all stubs _including the default stub_.
|
539
636
|
- The stubbed result objects returned by the Test lookup do not support all the methods real result objects do. If you need to test interaction with real results it may be better to use an external stubbing tool and something like WebMock or VCR to prevent network calls.

By default Geocoder will rescue any exceptions raised by calls to a geocoding service and return an empty array. You can override this on a per-exception basis, and also have Geocoder raise its own exceptions for certain events (eg: API quota exceeded) by using the `:always_raise` option:

Note that only a few of the above exceptions are raised by any given lookup, so there's no guarantee if you configure Geocoder to raise `ServiceUnavailable` that it will actually be raised under those conditions (because most APIs don't return 503 when they should; you may get a `Timeout::Error` instead). Please see the source code for your particular lookup for details.

The `near` method will not look across the 180th meridian to find objects close to a given point. In practice this is rarely an issue outside of New Zealand and certain surrounding islands. This problem does not exist with the zero-meridian. The problem is due to a shortcoming of the Haversine formula which Geocoder uses to calculate distances.

For all contributions, please respect the following guidelines:
|
693
|
-
|
694
|
-
* Each pull request should implement ONE feature or bugfix. If you want to add or fix more than one thing, submit more than one pull request.
|
695
|
-
* Do not commit changes to files that are irrelevant to your feature or bugfix (eg: `.gitignore`).
|
696
|
-
* Do not add dependencies on other gems.
|
697
|
-
* Do not add unnecessary `require` statements which could cause LoadErrors on certain systems.
|
698
|
-
* Remember: Geocoder needs to run outside of Rails. Don't assume things like ActiveSupport are available.
|
699
|
-
* Be willing to accept criticism and work on improving your code; Geocoder is used by thousands of developers and care must be taken not to introduce bugs.
|
700
|
-
* Be aware that the pull request review process is not immediate, and is generally proportional to the size of the pull request.
|
701
|
-
* If your pull request is merged, please do not ask for an immediate release of the gem. There are many factors contributing to when releases occur (remember that they affect thousands of apps with Geocoder in their Gemfiles). If necessary, please install from the Github source until the next official release.
