Hello everyone

I want to add google map to my form view without installing website .I will be fetching address from my custom address field and tagging that location on to google map.

Hi onkar,

Try this widget: https://www.odoo.com/apps/modules/10.0/web_map

This is an App from Odoo Apps. It adds a widget map. You can Add Map on your Form view By the Following Code:

Eg:

<record id="partner_google_map_form_view" model="ir.ui.view">
    <field name="name">partner_google_map_form_view.page</field>
    <field name="model">res.partner</field>
    <field name="inherit_id" ref="base.view_partner_form"/>
    <field name="arch" type="xml">
        <xpath expr="//notebook" position="inside">
            <page string="Map" name="partner_geo_map">
                <field name="google_map_partner" widget="map"  nolabel="1"/>
            </page>
        </xpath>
    </field>
</record>

Python 

google_map_partner = fields.Char(string="Map")

Thank you.

Thank you once again for your reply.

I used character field and widget map to show the map.

But how can i set coordinates to the char field to mark that location .

Hi,

Give this type of Value to Char field : {u'position': {u'lat': 20.593684, u'lng': 78.96288}, u'zoom': 3}

Avinash Nk

Eg:

import json

maps_loc = {u'position': {u'lat': 20.593684, u'lng': 78.96288}, u'zoom': 3}

json_map = json.dumps(maps_loc)

self.google_map_partner = json_map

The map only shows in edit mode. It won't show on create nor view mode. Can you guys help me on this ?
