add search by latitude/longitude

[ccloquet]

Is this functionality useful for others ?

I added the possibility to search by latitude & longitude in handleResults (quick & dirty). Then, you can type a lat/lon pair in the search box. When a valid pair is detected, it appears on top of the list, so that the user can select it easily.

handleResults: function(geojson) 
{
    var v   = $('.photon-input').val(); 
    var w = v.split(','); 

    if (w.length == 2) 
    {
        var lat = parseFloat(w[0])
        var lon = parseFloat(w[1])

        if ((lat >= -90) & (lat <= 90) & (lon >= -180) & (lon <= 180))
        {
            // later : geocode the adress
            var p = {"geometry":{"coordinates":[lon,lat],"type":"Point"},
            "type":"Feature","properties":
            {"osm_id":-1,"osm_type":"W","extent":[0,0,0,0],"country":"","osm_key":"","city":"","osm_value":"latitude/longitude","postcode":"","name": lat  + ',' + lon,"state":""}}

            geojson.features.unshift(p)
        }
    }
...
