Geospatial Queries ================== You can execute some special queries when using geospatial indexes like checking for documents within a rectangle or circle. Mapping ------- First, setup some documents like the following: .. configuration-block:: .. code-block:: php .. code-block:: yaml indexes: coordinates: keys: coordinates: 2d Near Query ---------- Now you can execute queries against these documents like the following. Check for the 10 nearest cities to a given longitude and latitude with the ``near($longitude, $latitude)`` method: .. code-block:: php dm->createQuery('City') ->field('coordinates')->near(-120, 40) ->execute(); .. _geonear: GeoNear Command --------------- You can also execute the `geoNear command`_ using the query builder's ``geoNear()`` method. Additional builder methods can be used to set options for this command (e.g. ``distanceMultipler()``, ``maxDistance()``, ``spherical()``). Unlike ``near()``, which uses a query operator, ``geoNear()`` does not require the location field to be specified in the builder, as MongoDB will use the single geospatial index for the collection. Documents will be returned in order of nearest to farthest. .. code-block:: php dm->createQuery('City') ->geoNear(-120, 40) ->spherical(true) // Convert radians to kilometers (use 3963.192 for miles) ->distanceMultiplier(6378.137) ->execute(); If the model has a property mapped with :ref:`@Distance `, that field will be set with the calculated distance between the document and the query coordinates. .. code-block:: php name, $city->distance); } .. _`geoNear command`: https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/command/geoNear/ Within Box ---------- You can also query for cities within a given rectangle using the ``withinBox($x1, $y1, $x2, $y2)`` method: .. code-block:: php dm->createQuery('City') ->field('coordinates')->withinBox(41, 41, 72, 72) ->execute(); Within Center ------------- In addition to boxes you can check for cities within a circle using the ``withinCenter($x, $y, $radius)`` method: .. code-block:: php dm->createQuery('City') ->field('coordinates')->withinCenter(50, 50, 20) ->execute();
