I have a Ruby script that uses the GMaps API to geocode a tremendous amount of addresses, 10,000 at a time. I was testing this using a free API key and now yesterday my client bought a Premier key. It stopped working this morning, and after an entire day of picking at it I discovered the Ruby plugin I'm using, Geokit, may not support the URL- signing part of the Premier API (still waiting for a reply to a post I made to that google group a while ago).
The system on which these scripts will run is extremely out of date (PHP 4.3.9 with absolutely no extensions or modules installed—and I can't change the server setup at all) and I don't have access to Base64 or SHA-1 or anything.... Is it at all possible to interface with the premier API from this setup or is this a lost cause? Bonus question: since Geokit's not cutting it, what are other people using for bulk geocoding with Ruby? Thanks in advance. -- max -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
