You can use add initializer for example if you're on Rails.
# config/initializers/geo_names.rb
GeoNames.configure do |config|
config.username = ENV['GEONAMES_USERNAME']
endFirst you need a Hash with the criteria that you want to search.
# example of criteria
criteria = {
country_code: 'US',
name: 'New York',
featureClass: %w[P S],
maxRows: 1,
style: 'short'
}Then you can search
result = GeoNames::Search.search(criteria)The result it will be a Hash if was successful, like this one:
{ "totalResultsCount" => 1360,
"geonames" => [
{ "lng" => "-74.00597",
"geonameId" => 5128581,
"countryCode" => "US",
"name" => "New York",
"toponymName" => "New York City",
"lat" => "40.71427",
"fcl" => "P",
"fcode" => "PPL"
}
]
