I'm trying to implement a general 'application settings' page for my application. on this page I want my customers to be able to put their own google api key for the rails geocoder gem. I have read through the documentation but could not find any way to set this api key in a dynamic way (through a form).
Is there any way to do this dynamically so the client can use his own google api key?
Small note, every application will only have 1 api key, but I'm trying to do this dynamically so I won't have to think about it anymore down the line.
You could use Geocode.configure:
Geocoder.configure(
:timeout => 5,
:lookup => :yandex,
:api_key => "2a9fsa983jaslfj982fjasd",
:units => :km
)
