Mapbox

Mapbox is awesome. But it doesn't have an official gem. :( So....

This the the unofficial way to connect to the Static Map API from MapBox.

This gem provides a simple way to create a static map and add markers.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'mapbox'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install mapbox

Set your MAP API ID .

  ENV['MAPBOX_API_ID'] = "examples.map-4l7djmvo"

OR

  StaticMap.api_id = "examples.map-4l7djmvo"

Make a map.

# StaticMap.new(lat, lon, zoom, width=640, height=480)
map = StaticMap.new(38.89,-77.04,13)
map.width = 400
map.width = 300
map.to_s
# => "api.tiles.mapbox.com/v3/examples.map-4l7djmvo/-77.04,38.89,13/300x480.png"

Add markers.

# MapboxMarker.new(latitude, longitude, size=SMALL_PIN, label=nil, color=nil)
map << MapboxMarker.new(38.89, -77.04, MapboxMarker::MEDIUM_PIN, "monument")
map.to_s
# => "api.tiles.mapbox.com/v3/examples.map-4l7djmvo/pin-m-monument(-77.04,38.89)/-77.04,38.89,13/300x480.png"
