I'm using a geolocation server script from an example you guys developed several years ago and it always seems to find the coordinates, but when it searches the database for names at the location I get inconsistent error messages "An error occured". (Please see attached server code). What I mean is sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Help please - the server code is below. As I said it is from a past tutorial of yours.
Server Code
// Database Id
var dbId = "5463d26be4b03a87ba7abf34"; //Change this value to your database id
var responseBody = {};
// Get request parameters
var latitude = request.object().latitude;
var longitude = request.object().longitude;
var radius = request.object().radius;
// The function that calculates the distance between two points
function getDistance(lat1, lat2, lon1, lon2) {
var R = 6378137; // Earth’s mean radius in meters
var dLat = (lat2 - lat1)*Math.PI/180;
var dLon = (lon2 - lon1)*Math.PI/180;
var lat1 = lat1*Math.PI/180;
var lat2 = lat2*Math.PI/180;
var a = Math.sin(dLat / 2) * Math.sin(dLat / 2) + Math.sin(dLon / 2) * Math.sin(dLon / 2) * Math.cos(lat1) * Math.cos(lat2);
var c = 2 * Math.atan2(Math.sqrt(a), Math.sqrt(1 - a));
var d = R * c;
return d;
}
try {
// Check if all the necessary parameters are present and valid
if (latitude && longitude && radius && !isNaN(latitude) && !isNaN(longitude) && !isNaN(radius)) {
var results = [];
var params = {};
// Sort the results by contact name
params.sort = "contactName";
// Get all customers from the database
var customers = Collection.query(dbId, "customers", params);
for (var i = 0; i < customers.length; i++) {
// Geocode customer's address with Google API
var XHRResponse = XHR.send("GET", "https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/...", {
"parameters": {
"address": customers.address,
"sensor": "false"
}
});
console.log(XHRResponse);
if (XHRResponse.status == 200) {
// Get coordinates from the response
var lat = JSON.parse(XHRResponse.body).results[0].geometry.location.lat;
var lng = JSON.parse(XHRResponse.body).results[0].geometry.location.lng;
// If the customer's coordinates are within the radius,
// add the customer record to the results array
if (getDistance(lat, latitude, lng, longitude) , 400);
}
