Integrate Smart IP with Geofield's Views proximity handlers

I use your code to build my own one.

I'm not sure if it's the good way to implement it, but it works great for me.

To make it works

Edit the views/geofield.views.inc, and add just before return :

if (module_exists('smart_ip')) {
    $handlers['smart_ip_session'] = array(
      'name' => t('Smart IP Session Parameters'),
      'class' => 'geofieldProximitySmartIpSession',
    );
  }

and put the joined file in the views/proximity_plugins directory (name it correctly as geofieldProximitySmartIpSession.inc).

You have to add it in the geofield.info file :
files[] = views/proximity_plugins/geofieldProximitySmartIpSession.inc

Then configure your filter :

1. Add a proximity filter provided by Geofield, the is one proximty filter by Geofield in your Drupal configuration, so choose the good one.
2. Use the "Is less than" operator, because you probably want to search under the maximum distance around your visitor.
3. In Source of Origin, choose the "Smart IP Session Parameter" plugin.

For my filter, I choose to provide just a simple checkbox to allow user to search around his location, or not.
So I provide two parameters for the plugin :

• Distance, to search around
• Label, displayed for the checkox

The implementation is very simple, i just fill the default distance value of the field provided by Geofield.
I hide the Geofield Proximity filters.
Then I give the Smart IP session coord to process filtering around the visitor if we check the box.

Feedbacks are welcome, but i think they will be more usefull for maintainers.

Happy filtering !

I tried the instructions above but keep running into errors.

If I paste

if (module_exists('smart_ip')) {
    $handlers['smart_ip_session'] = array(
      'name' => t('Smart IP Session Parameters'),
      'class' => 'geofieldProximitySmartIpSession',
    );
  }

right before "return $handlers..."

I get the following error as I want to add a proximity filter:

An AJAX HTTP error occurred.
HTTP Result Code: 200
Debugging information follows.

I tried pasting the whole geofieldProximitySmartIpSession.inc file into the geofield_handler_filter.inc but that didn't work either...

Here are the patched files for pasada's version, which work fine.

I couldn't get mattew's version to work either --same error.

I think this is awesome!
I just have a question. Would it be posible to show the nodes (buildings in my case) that are close to the visitor, not close to the city? In large cities, and if you have hundreds or thousands of nodes that may be sensible.
Thanks for your help

edit: will post instructions on the exact setup

See #2011340: Geofield plugin to extend proximity filtering based on postal address with option to use HTML5 location for a similar (and simpler) patch based on IP Geolocation Views and Maps.

This patch implements @algazaras request in #4. Plus you can use it to filter Views tables as well as maps.

@RdeBoer that's cool. However, having smart_ip first and HTML5 as fallback is the less intrusive method. HTML5 will nag user, smart_ip won't.

This is almost exactly what I've been looking for. I was wondering if anybody has implemented this with the value being filled on button click rather than auto-fill.

@duntuk - the geofield_handler_filter.inc file you uploaded in #3 on April Fools is substantially different than the git version of Geofield from today.

It's always easier to compare patches. Since this is written against the 2.0 branch I've just rolled a patch against that branch.

Ultimately this should be re-rolled against
git clone --branch 7.x-2.x http://git.drupal.org/project/geofield.git

Ok, I think this will bring these changes forward so they will be easy to integrate into the latest git repo.

Thanks pasada for the initital writing and mgifford for patching it to the latest git repo. I changed country to region to display "City, State" which was a little more applicable for my use case. The patch in #10 still applied cleanly and seems to work.

One question:

I'm looking to do away with the filter on certain pages (landing page) and just display an image closest to the user. How could I get this code working for sort criteria as well as filter? I'm fairly new to drupal and php but I'd be glad to help however I can. I'll try taking a look at it when I have a little more time if no one else is interested/knows how.

Thanks Again!

Hi,

Just thought I'd mention that the current mods would break some functionality in Geofield exposed proximity filters. Namely, if anyone chooses to allow manual entry of co-ordinates into an exposed form (there many be other scenarios, too).

Firstly, you can also modify geofieldProximityManual.inc to automatically default to Smart IP latitude and longitude if available.

public function getSourceValue($views_plugin) {
	
     if (module_exists('smart_ip') && isset($_SESSION['smart_ip']['location']['latitude']) && $_SESSION['smart_ip']['location']['latitude'] !== '' && isset($_SESSION['smart_ip']['location']['longitude']) && $_SESSION['smart_ip']['location']['latitude'] !== '') {
        return array(
		  'latitude' => (isset($views_plugin->value) && !empty($views_plugin->value['origin']['lat'])) ? $views_plugin->value['origin']['lat'] : $_SESSION['smart_ip']['location']['latitude'],
		  'longitude' => (isset($views_plugin->value) && !empty($views_plugin->value['origin']['lon'])) ? $views_plugin->value['origin']['lon'] : $_SESSION['smart_ip']['location']['longitude']
    );	
	}
        	  
    return array(
      'latitude' => (isset($views_plugin->value)) ? $views_plugin->value['origin']['lat'] : $views_plugin->options['geofield_proximity_manual']['lat'],
      'longitude' => (isset($views_plugin->value)) ? $views_plugin->value['origin']['lon'] : $views_plugin->options['geofield_proximity_manual']['lon'],
    );
  }
}

Importantly, we have to allow for the smart IP array in geofield_handler_filter.inc for those that chose a manually exposed filter

Something like this (untested):

  function value_form(&$form, &$form_state) {
		  
    $form['value'] = array(
      '#type' => 'geofield_proximity',
      '#title' => t('Proximity Search'),
      '#default_value' => array(
        'distance' => $this->value['distance'],
        'unit' => $this->value['unit'],
        'origin' => (is_string($this->value['origin'])) ? trim($this->value['origin']) : $this->value['origin'],
      ),
      '#origin_options' => array(
        '#attributes' => array(
          'class' => array('geofield-proximity-origin'),
        ),
      ),
    );
     
if (module_exists('smart_ip')) {	
	
		if (is_array($this->value['origin']) && isset($_SESSION['smart_ip']['location']['latitude']) && $_SESSION['smart_ip']['location']['latitude'] !== '' && isset($_SESSION['smart_ip']['location']['longitude']) && $_SESSION['smart_ip']['location']['latitude'] !== '') {
			$form['value']['#default_value']['origin'] = array(
			  'lat' => (isset($this->value['origin']['lat']) && $this->value['origin']['lat'] !== '') ? $this->value['origin']['lat'] : $_SESSION['smart_ip']['location']['latitude'],
			  'lon' => (isset($this->value['origin']['lon']) && $this->value['origin']['lon'] !== '') ? $this->value['origin']['lon'] : $_SESSION['smart_ip']['location']['longitude']
		);
}

//if the structure provided is a string then you can continue in a similar way to the example above and replace origin string
if (is_string($this->value['origin'] && !empty($_SESSION['smart_ip']['location']) {
      $smartip_city = $_SESSION['smart_ip']['location']['city'];
      $smartip_country = $_SESSION['smart_ip']['location']['country'];
$form['value']['#default_value']['origin'] = $this->value['origin'] !== '' ? $this->value['origin'] : $smartip_city . t(', ') . $smartip_country;
}

		
}
	}

I haven't checked to see what values Smart IP returns in different scenarios (I believe it provides the entire array key with empty '' values but I guess it would be good to check.

I have extended #10's work with the latest dev code as today.

Also I have changed the usage of "$_SESSION['smart_ip']" to "smart_ip_session_get('smart_ip')" as the latter is recommended.

In the file: "views/handlers/geofield_handler_filter.inc", instead of using the 'city, country', i change to 'latitude, longitude' for better accuracy. Hope this can help someone.

The patched has been tested locally.

@chris.jichen #13 doesn't seem to be close to #10 Is it supposed to be applied on top of #10?

An interdiff would help a bit here I believe. @see https://drupal.org/documentation/git/interdiff

@mgifford did you mean to do this remove the module invoke?

And would it be better to use this function from smart_ip, maybe?
