How can I get directions from the address already defined in the map app to the location in the input field?

[Patrick Kelly]

Basically, this is a case of basic programming memory loss. In the code below, I simply need to know how I can use the address that is already in the map (the one you define in the map settings and/or the one currently displayed on the map) instead of the information from the inputSource field. Something to the effect of var source Address = get.geocode("Address").val();

var sourceAddress = Appery("inputSource").val();
var destinationAddress = Appery("inputDestination").val();
var map = Appery("directionsMap").gmap;
displayDirections(sourceAddress, destinationAddress, map);

Hello,

This should help :
http://docs.appery.io/tutorials/build...
https://developers.google.com/maps/do...

Yeah, I've seen those and I have been looking through the documentation, but I am still a little rusty on my java programming classes that I took in college a couple years ago. I've just been having trouble finding out how to make it happen. Basically, I just need to know how to call the current address in the map so that I can put it into a variable when I click a button.

If you use example from this tutorial than you need to add next steps:

• Open directions.js;

  Add following lines:
  pre
  var route = response.routes[0];
  for (var i = 0; i < route&#46;legs&#46;length; i++) {
  localStorage&#46;setItem("startaddr", route&#46;legs&#46;start_address);
  localStorage&#46;setItem("endaddr", route&#46;legs&#46;end_address);
  }
  /pre
  
  after existing line:
  
  pre
  if (status == google&#46;maps&#46;DirectionsStatus&#46;OK) {
  directionsDisplay&#46;setDirections(response);
  /pre

• Add event on "Get Directions" button click like on screen shot:
