Download

You can grab the code base from the FarCry subversion repository: http://svn1.cvsdude.com/modius/farcry/plugins/googleMaps/trunk

Or a zip of the plugin on the FishEye site (bottom left): http://fisheye3.cenqua.com/browse/farcrycms/plugins/googleMaps/trunk

Installation

Add googleMaps to your plugin list in the farcryinit tag of your project's Application.cfm:

<farcry:farcryInit 
  name="daemon" 
  dbType="mssql" 
  plugins="farcrycms,farcryflow,googleMaps" />

You'll need to get an official Google Map API key for your domain. This is a big alphanumeric keyed to your specific domain – so you'll need one for your development environment and one for production.

Add something like the following to your project's ./config/_serverSpecificVars.cfm

<cfsetting enablecfoutputonly="true" />
<!--- production server specific variables go here --->
<cfset application.stplugins.googlemaps.apikey="ABQIFFFFbsprD0qxxzsWeHnhPkBI3xRHvAt0JAzwc_e_MCA" />

<!--- developer/staging specific variables are overridden here --->
<cfset machineName=createObject("java", "java.net.InetAddress").localhost.getHostName()>
<cfswitch expression="#machinename#">
  <cfcase value="mydevbox">
    <cfset application.stplugins.googlemaps.apiKey="ABQIBBBBbsprD0qxxzsWeHnhPkBI3xy48YQjS2luDReiGlZQ" />
  </cfcase>

</cfswitch>

<cfsetting enablecfoutputonly="false" />

Then simply reinitialise your application and login to the webtop. You can create Locations and maps from the webtop admin, and schedule maps onto your pages using the googleMap publishing rule.
