Geocode

Source: src/AWS/GeoPlaces/Geocode.ts

Runtime binding for geo-places:Geocode — convert an address or place description into geographic coordinates.

geo-places is a standalone, pay-per-call Amazon Location API with no resource to manage: the binding takes no arguments and grants the function geo-places:Geocode. Requests and responses are raw distilled types (no marshalling).

Geocoding Addresses

Provide the GeocodeHttp implementation layer on the Function effect (.pipe(Effect.provide(AWS.GeoPlaces.GeocodeHttp))), bind in the init phase, then call the client at runtime.

// init
const geocode = yield* AWS.GeoPlaces.Geocode();

// runtime
const result = yield* geocode({
  QueryText: "1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington, DC",
});
const position = result.ResultItems?.[0]?.Position; // [lng, lat]
