I have a query on calculating distance (google matrix api) within a database rest service. Both my services working fine separately but not sure how would I output distance for each list item.

So to elaborate I have list of addresses stored in a database and I want to get distance from users current location...

Hello Sowmen,

You should call the service of the distance calculation for each address. Please look here how to combine 2 services: https://getsatisfaction.com/apperyio/...

Thanks for the quick reply Evgene...I am still not sure if I can replicate with my situation, I mean the JS part..

Let me explain a bit with some screen..

Here is the google rest

Here is my database query -

Can you help me set the JS

Hi Sowmen,

Here is a brief plan for this implementation:

1 Get current location and store it in some LSV(origin)

2 Add success event handler on list service and get all destinations.

4 Invoke "distance_metrics" service with parameters:
4.1 origin from LSV from 1st step.
4.2 destinations from 2nd step.

Here is code how to invoke service from JS:

pre

//You need to replace "serviceName" with your service datasource name.
//Also you need to set correct origins and destinations parameters.
serviceName.execute({data: {origins: "...", destinations: "..." } });

/pre

Note, you can send only 25 items at once. see details here: https://developers.google.com/maps/do...

Regards.

   And My service response page...

   Now I just want to return the distance value..

   Please help me with the code...

Hello Sowmen,

You have an error in your code
predata: {origins: "'+origin+'", destination: "'+destination+'"}/pre
and should be
predata: {origins: origin, destinations: destination}/pre
But your code is still not complete. Please look carefully at this answer: https://getsatisfaction.com/apperyio/... There all the steps, please let us know if anything is not clear

HI Sowmen,

It seems you have attached same images.

We can not help cause of we can not see your service response.

But, on your screen shot from service "response" tab (https://d2r1vs3d9006ap.cloudfront.net...)

you should remove "[0]" from "data" object.

See details: http://prntscr.com/4p34fn/direct

If it does not help please provide us with your service response text. (for example save response to file and give it us)

Regards.
