Quick Start

Basic Usage

// Basic widget for Slovakia
<x-gls-map country="SK" />

// With custom dimensions
<x-gls-map country="CZ" width="800px" height="500px" />

// With geolocation (auto-detects user's country)
<x-gls-map :use-geolocation="true" />

Advanced Usage

// Parcel lockers only with English language
<x-gls-map 
    country="HU" 
    language="EN" 
    filter-type="parcel-locker" 
    width="100%" 
    height="600px" 
/>

// Drop-off points only
<x-gls-map 
    country="PL" 
    :dropoffpoints-only="true" 
    id="custom-gls-widget" 
/>

// Dialog modal version
<x-gls-map 
    country="DE" 
    widget-type="dialog" 
    id="gls-modal" 
/>

<!-- Button to open modal -->
<button onclick="glsOpenModal('gls-modal')">
    Select Delivery Point
</button>

Component Attributes

Attribute	Type	Default	Description
`country`	string	`SK`	Two-letter country code (AT, BE, BG, CZ, DE, DK, ES, FI, FR, GR, HR, HU, IT, LU, NL, PL, PT, RO, RS, SI, SK)
`language`	string	auto	Two-letter language code (CS, HR, HU, RO, SR, SL, SK, PL, EN, DE, FR, ES, IT, BG)
`width`	string	`100%`	Widget width (CSS value)
`height`	string	`600px`	Widget height (CSS value)
`filter-type`	string	null	Filter by type: `parcel-shop` or `parcel-locker`
`dropoffpoints-only`	boolean	`false`	Show only drop-off points
`use-geolocation`	boolean	`false`	Enable automatic location detection
`id`	string	auto	Custom element ID
`widget-type`	string	`widget`	Widget type: `widget` or `dialog`

Event Handling

The component dispatches events when a delivery point is selected:

// Listen for delivery point selection
document.addEventListener('gls-delivery-point-selected', function(event) {
    console.log('Selected delivery point:', event.detail.deliveryPoint);
    
    // Access delivery point data
    const point = event.detail.deliveryPoint;
    console.log('ID:', point.id);
    console.log('Name:', point.name);
    console.log('Address:', point.contact.address);
    console.log('City:', point.contact.city);
    console.log('Postal Code:', point.contact.postalCode);
});

// Listen for geolocation updates
document.addEventListener('gls-location-updated', function(event) {
    console.log('Location updated to:', event.detail.countryCode);
    console.log('From cache:', event.detail.isFromCache);
    console.log('Postal code:', event.detail.postalCode);
});

// Clear geolocation cache (for testing/debugging)
window.clearGlsGeolocationCache();

Geolocation

The package includes advanced geolocation functionality:

<x-gls-map :use-geolocation="true" height="500px" />

How it works:

Cache Check - First checks localStorage for cached geolocation data (24h validity)
Browser Geolocation - If no cache, requests user's GPS coordinates
Reverse Geocoding - Determines country and postal code using OpenStreetMap Nominatim
Auto-Search - Automatically triggers search in GLS widget with detected postal code
Smart Caching - Saves location data to localStorage for instant future loads
Fallback - Gracefully falls back to default country if geolocation fails

Privacy & Permissions

Geolocation only works with user consent
No coordinate data is sent to your server
Uses OpenStreetMap's free Nominatim service
Respects browser privacy settings

Configuration

The config file provides extensive customization options:

return [
    // Country-specific script endpoints
    'country_endpoints' => [
        'SK' => 'https://map.gls-slovakia.com/widget/gls-dpm.js',
        'CZ' => 'https://map.gls-czech.com/widget/gls-dpm.js',
        // ... all supported countries
    ],

    // Default language for each country
    'country_language_mapping' => [
        'SK' => 'SK',
        'CZ' => 'CS',
        // ... mappings for all countries
    ],

    // Default widget settings
    'defaults' => [
        'width' => '100%',
        'height' => '600px',
        'country' => 'SK',
        'use_geolocation' => false,
    ],

    // Geolocation configuration
    'geolocation' => [
        'reverse_geocoding_service' => 'nominatim',
        'nominatim_endpoint' => 'https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/reverse',
        'timeout_ms' => 10000,
        'cache_duration' => 3600,
    ],
];

Examples

E-commerce Checkout Integration

<div class="delivery-selection">
    <h3>Select Delivery Point</h3>
    
    <x-gls-map 
        :use-geolocation="true"
        width="100%" 
        height="400px"
        id="checkout-delivery-map" 
    />
    
    <input type="hidden" name="selected_delivery_point" id="delivery-point-input">
</div>

<script>
document.addEventListener('gls-delivery-point-selected', function(event) {
    const deliveryPoint = event.detail.deliveryPoint;
    
    // Update hidden form field
    document.getElementById('delivery-point-input').value = JSON.stringify(deliveryPoint);
    
    // Update UI
    document.getElementById('selected-point-info').innerHTML = `
        <strong>${deliveryPoint.name}</strong><br>
        ${deliveryPoint.contact.address}<br>
        ${deliveryPoint.contact.postalCode} ${deliveryPoint.contact.city}
    `;

Browser Compatibility

Modern Browsers: Chrome 70+, Firefox 70+, Safari 12+, Edge 79+
Geolocation: Requires HTTPS in production
JavaScript: ES6 modules supported

Performance

Lazy Loading: GLS scripts load only when needed
Caching: Geolocation results cached for 1 hour
Lightweight: ~15KB additional JavaScript
CDN: Uses GLS official CDN endpoints

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Geolocation not working:

Ensure your site uses HTTPS in production
Check browser permissions
Verify Nominatim endpoint is accessible

Widget not loading:

Check console for JavaScript errors
Verify country code is supported
Ensure GLS scripts are accessible

Styling issues:

Publish and customize views if needed
Check for CSS conflicts
Use browser developer tools to debug

Debug Mode

<x-gls-map 
    country="SK" 
    :use-geolocation="true"
    id="debug-widget"
/>

<script>
// Enable debugging
console.log('GLS Config:', window.glsMapConfig);

// Listen to all events
document.addEventListener('gls-location-updated', console.log);
document.addEventListener('gls-delivery-point-selected', console.log);
</script>
