Help with PyS60 Google Maps API

[maison1985]

Hi everybody.

I am using pys60 to create an application for a client.

Now, I need to show a google map in the screen. I have found the PyS60 Google Maps API documentation and code and it´s supposed that this code does everything for you.

I thought that I only needed to copy the code and do some changes to work it but it doesn´t.

Everything works fine except when I need to get the image.

When I´m trying to do this: gImage = gmap.retrieveStaticImage(320, 240, 51.510605, -0.130728, 8, "png32")

I get an error and I don´t know why because I can´t see the error´s text. Also I have tested all the programm and I am sure that line is the problem.

There is not a lot of information about this API so I would like to know if someone could help me because I don´t know what can I do.

My gps code is:

elif self.current_tab==locale('tab.google'):
appuifw2.app.body = self.google_display
try:
gmap = GoogleMaps('Secret')
gAddress = gmap.geocodeAddress("Leicester Square, London")
tMap = gmap.adjust(gAddress[0],gAddress[1],100,0,8)
gImage = gmap.retrieveStaticImage(320, 240, tMap[1],tMap[0], 8, "png32")
appuifw.note(u"It works")
except:appuifw.note(u"It doesn´t")

With that code, the program fails but if I do the same code without gImage line, it works.

The rest of the PyS60 Google Maps API code is here: http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.ph...oogle_Maps_API.

Thank you for everything and sorry for my English, I am Spanish.

maison,

I found a problem in the code and fixed it. Please, check out the article again.

Instead:

if platform[:5]=='linux':
    tmp_file = open(self.tmp_file)
else:
    tmp_file = graphics.open(self.tmp_file)
return tmp_file

Use:

return graphics.Image.open(self.tmp_file)

Just wondering what "Reviewer Approved" means ...

Best regards,

Thank you very much. Now I can see the map.

If you don´t mind I have another question. I need to show in the map two points. One of them it´s my position that I think I can get from my gps data but do you know if I can show two points in the same map?

Thanks!

Maison,

As you can see, the GoogleMaps class is just a wrapper to generate URL requests and save responses. Unfortunately I don't know Google Maps API but after skimming the API docs it seems that this job is done by GPoint(), available via javascript. I dont know how to do it in Python only.
