Google AJAX Search API Overview
• The Search Control

This provides the user interface and coordination over a number of
searcher objects

• Searchers

It defines the interface that all searcher services must implement

• GResult

the search results produced by the searcher objects

• Searcher Options

This class configures the behavior of searcher objects

Google AJAX Search API Overview #sample code1
// create a searcher object
var sc = new google.search.SearchControl();

// add one or more searchers, specifying options as needed
var options = new google.search.SearcherOptions();
options.setExpandMode(google.search.SearchControl.EXPA
ND_MODE_OPEN);
sc.addSearcher(new google.search.WebSearch(), options);
...

// activate the search control by calling it's .draw() method
sc.draw(document.getElementById("myDiv"));

• GSblogBar

google.search.SearchControl #1
• An instance of google.search.SearchControl represents a
single search control on a page

•是用來裝載搜尋功能的控制容器，所有搜尋功能的物件
都必須放入這個容器中才能運作。

•要建立google.search.SearchControl物件，可以使用下列
範例語法
var searchControl = new google.search.SearchControl();

- addSearcher(searcher, opt_options)

•這個函式可以將搜尋器加入搜尋控制容器中。搜尋控制
容器在最後執行搜尋動作的階段，會針對它所擁有的搜
尋器進行相對應的搜尋與顯示搜尋結果的動作

• searcher – 指定搜尋器的種類

• opt_options – 非必填引數。這個引數可以針對搜尋器進
行外觀與行為的細部設定

- draw(element, GdrawOptions)

•本函式會為每個加入搜尋控制容器的搜索器進行搜尋介
面繪製的動作。只有在所有搜索器都已加入搜索控制容
器後，才可以呼叫此函式。

• element – HTML區塊元素。我們可以將搜尋控制容器放
置到指定的HTML區塊元素之中。通常HTML區塊元素是
指HTML中的<div>元素。

• GdrawOptions – 非必填的引數。這個引數可以用來設定
搜尋結果的顯示外觀。

- setTimeoutInterval(timeoutInterval)

•當我們利用draw函式中的Gdrawoptions引數來自訂搜尋
輸入欄位時，就可以使用setTimeoutInterval這個函式。這
個函式可以讓我們設定執行搜尋的時間間隔，每當使用
者在搜索輸入欄位中鍵入搜尋關鍵字時，就會有計時器
依據這個時間間隔開始進行倒數計時。當倒數結束，就
會依據搜尋欄位中的關鍵字開始進行搜尋動作。

timeoutInterval可填入之有效值時間間隔
google.search.SearchControl.TIMEOUT_SHORT 350ms

google.search.SearchControl.TIMEOUT_MEDIUM 500ms

google.search.SearchControl.TIMEOUT_LONG 700ms

- execute(str)

•本函式可以讓搜尋控制容器中所有的搜尋器依照所傳入
的搜尋關鍵字進行搜尋的動作。

• str – 搜尋關鍵字。

- setOnKeepCallback(object, method, opt_keepLabel)

•本函式可以讓我們設定緊跟在搜尋結果後面的連結，以
及按下此連結時會被呼叫的函式。當使用者點擊該連結
後，會將該筆的搜尋結果物件傳送給我們所呼叫的函式。
透過這種方式，我們就可以對搜尋結果進行更進一步的
處理。
• object – 要呼叫函式所屬的物件名稱。
• method – 要呼叫的函式名稱。
• opt_keepLabel – 功能按鈕的顯示樣式。
屬性說明
google.search.SearchControl.KEEP_LABEL_SAVE 「保持」連結樣式
google.search.SearchControl.KEEP_LABEL_INCLUDE 「包括」連結樣式
google.search.SearchControl.KEEP_LABEL_COPY 「複製」連結樣式
google.search.SearchControl.KEEP_LABEL_BLANK 空白連結樣式
其他任意文字顯示該文字連結

- clearAllResults()

•本函式可以清除目前搜尋控制容器中的所有搜尋結果。

- setLinkTarget(linkTarget)

•本函式指定當使用者點擊搜尋結果連結時，在哪一個網
頁框架顯示該連結網頁。

• linkTarget – 設定點擊搜尋結果時，在哪一個網頁框架
顯示該連結網頁。

- setSearchCompleteCallback(object, method)

•我們可以透過setSearchCompleteCallback設定在搜尋動作
完成時所呼叫的函式。要注意的是，搜尋控制容器中每
一個搜尋器完成搜尋的時候就會執行一次要被呼叫的函
式。舉例來說，如果搜尋控制容器中的搜尋器有兩個，
該函式在搜尋動作完成後就會被執行兩次。

• object - 要呼叫函式所屬的物件名稱。
• method -要呼叫的函式名稱。

- setSearchStartingCallback(object, method)

•我們可以透過setSearchStartingCallback設定在搜尋動作
開始時所呼叫的函式。要注意的是，搜尋控制容器中每
一個搜尋器開始搜尋的時候就會執行一次要被呼叫的函
式。舉例來說，如果控制元件中的搜尋器有兩個，該函
式在搜尋動作開始時後就會被執行兩次。


- setNoResultsString(str)

•我們可以使用本函式設定當搜尋不到結果時，網頁所顯
示的文字。

• str - 當搜尋不到結果時，網頁所顯示的文字。

google.search.SearchForm #1
• The google.search.SearchForm object is a light weight
object that is designed for exactly this use case. It provides
applications with a text input element, a search button, an
optional clear button, as well as all standard branding.
•
•要建立google.search.SearchForm物件，可以使用下列範
例語法
var searchForm = new google.search.SearchForm(enableClear, element);

• enableClear – 這個引數為 ture 時，搜索輸入欄位就會包
含一個清除搜尋結果的按鈕，否則將不會有清除搜尋結
果的按鈕。
• element – HTML Element。

- setOnSubmitCallback(object, method)

• setOnSubmitCallback可以讓我們設定點選搜尋按鈕後所
呼叫的物件與函式，此外搜尋輸入欄位的值也會被傳遞
到要被呼叫的函式中。


- setOnClearCallback(object, method)

•本函式將會設定按下搜索輸入欄位的「清除」按鈕時被
呼叫的物件與函式。如果在建立google.search.SearchForm
物件時，沒有建立清除搜尋結果的按鈕，則呼叫此函式
時會發生錯誤。此外，搜尋輸入欄位的值也會被傳遞到
要被呼叫的函式中。


- execute(query)

•利用execute函式，可以讓搜尋器依照所傳入的搜尋關鍵
字進行搜尋的動作。

• query - 執行搜尋時所使用的關鍵字。

Searchers #2
• google.search.WebSearch

var searcher = new google.search.WebSearch();

• google.search.LocalSearch

var searcher = new google.search.LocalSearch();

• google.search.VideoSearch
var searcher = new google.search.VideoSearch();

• google.search.BlogSearch
var searcher = new google.search.BlogSearch();

Searchers #3
• google.search.NewsSearch

var searcher = new google.search.NewsSearch();

• google.search.ImageSearch

var searcher = new google.search.ImageSearch();

• google.search.BookSearch
var searcher = new google.search.BookSearch();

• google.search.PatentSearch
var searcher = new google.search.PatentSearch();

GResult #1
• Result objects are produced using a JSON encoding of
server search requests.

• 當我們透過搜尋器進行搜尋動作後，除了會在指定的網
頁元素位置上顯示搜尋結果外，也會根據搜尋器的種類
回傳不同的搜尋結果物件。瞭解搜尋結果物件的屬性，
可以讓我們對搜尋結果物件進行更進一步的處理

GResult #2
• Result objects are produced using a JSON encoding of
server search requests.

• 當我們透過搜尋器進行搜尋動作後，除了會在指定的網
頁元素位置上顯示搜尋結果外，也會根據搜尋器的種類
回傳不同的搜尋結果物件。瞭解搜尋結果物件的屬性，
可以讓我們對搜尋結果物件進行更進一步的處理

Searcher Options
• When adding a searcher to the search control, the
GsearcherOptionsgoogle.search.SearcherOptions object may
be specified.
// create a searcher options object
// set up for open expansion mode
// load a searcher with these options
var options = new google.search.SearcherOptions();
options.setExpandMode(google.search.SearchControl.EXPAND_MOD
E_OPEN);
searchControl.addSearcher(new google.search.WebSearch(), options);

DrawOptions Options
• When asking a search control to draw, you must specify a
container for the control to draw within.
• In addition to this required parameter, the search
control's .draw() method also accepts an optional
google.search.DrawOptions object.
// create a drawOptions object
var drawOptions = new google.search.DrawOptions();
drawOptions.setDrawMode(google.search.SearchControl.DRAW_MO
DE_TABBED);
searchControl.draw(element, drawOptions);

Google Maps API Family
• Google Maps has a wide array of APIs that let you embed
the robust functionality and everyday usefulness of Google
Maps into your own website and applications

Google Maps JavaScript API V3

• Map DOM Elements
<div id="map_canvas" style="width: 100%; height: 100%"></div>

• Map Options

var myLatlng = new google.maps.LatLng(-34.397, 150.644);
var myOptions = {
zoom: 8,
center: myLatlng,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
};

• Create instance
var map = new
google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), myOptions);

Geolocation
• Geolocation refers to the identification of the geographic
location of a user or computing device via a variety of data
collecton mechanisms.

• Newer browsers are starting to support the W3C Geolocation
standard.

// Try W3C Geolocation method (Preferred)
if(navigator.geolocation) {
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(position) {
initialLocation = new
google.maps.LatLng(position.coords.latitude,position.coords.longitude);
……
});}

Developing for Mobile Devices
• You can detect iPhone and Android devices by inspecting the
navigator.userAgent
function detectBrowser() {
var useragent = navigator.userAgent;
var mapdiv = document.getElementById("map_canvas");

if (useragent.indexOf('iPhone') != -1 || useragent.indexOf('Android') != -1 ) {
mapdiv.style.width = '100%';
mapdiv.style.height = '100%';
} else {
mapdiv.style.width = '600px';
mapdiv.style.height = '800px';
}
}

Google Maps Javascript API V3 Controls
• Navigation control
• Scale control
• MapType control

• You don't access or modify controls directly. Instead, you
modify the map's MapOptions fields which affect the visibility
and presentation of controls. You can adjust control presentation
upon instantiating your map (with appropriate MapOptions) or
modify a map dynamically by calling setOptions() to change the
map's options.

Google Maps JavaScript API V3 Overlays #1
• Overlays are objects on the map that are tied to
latitude/longitude coordinates, so they move when you drag or
zoom the map. Overlays reflect objects that you "add" to the
map to designate points, lines, areas, or collections of objects.

• several types of overlays:
• markers
• polylines
• overlay map types
• info window
• custom overlays

• Adding Overlays

var myLatlng = new google.maps.LatLng(-25.363882,131.044922);
var myOptions = {
zoom: 4,
center: myLatlng,
}
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), myOptions);

position: myLatlng,
});

// To add the marker to the map, call setMap();
marker.setMap(map);

• Removing Overlays
• http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/overlay-remove.html

// Removes the overlays from the map, but keeps them in the array
function clearOverlays() {
if (markersArray) {
for (i in markersArray) {
markersArray[i].setMap(null);
} }}

// Shows any overlays currently in the array
function showOverlays() {
if (markersArray) {
markersArray[i].setMap(map);
} }}

// Deletes all markers in the array by removing references to them
function deleteOverlays() {
if (markersArray) {
markersArray[i].setMap(null);
}
markersArray.length = 0;
}}

• Markers
var myLatlng = new google.maps.LatLng(-25.363882,131.044922);
var myOptions = {
zoom: 4,
center: myLatlng,
}
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), myOptions);

position: myLatlng,
map: map,
});

• Simple Icons
var image = 'beachflag.png';
var myLatLng = new google.maps.LatLng(-33.890542, 151.274856);
var beachMarker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: myLatLng,
map: map,
icon: image
});

• Complex Icons
position: myLatLng,
map: map,
shadow: shadow,
icon: image,
shape: shape,
title: beach[0],
zIndex: beach[3]
});

• Polylines

• A polyline supports the following stroke styles:
• strokeColor
• strokeOpacity
• strokeWeight

var flightPlanCoordinates = [
new google.maps.LatLng(37.772323, -122.214897),
new google.maps.LatLng(-18.142599, 178.431),
new google.maps.LatLng(-27.46758, 153.027892)
];
var flightPath = new google.maps.Polyline({
path: flightPlanCoordinates,
strokeColor: "#FF0000",
strokeOpacity: 1.0,
strokeWeight: 2
});

flightPath.setMap(map);

• Polygons

• A polygons supports the ploylines stroke styles and fill styles:
• fillColor
• fillOpacity
var triangleCoords = [
new google.maps.LatLng(25.774252, -80.190262)
];
// Construct the polygon
// Note that we don't specify an array or arrays, but instead just
// a simple array of LatLngs in the paths property
bermudaTriangle = new google.maps.Polygon({
paths: triangleCoords,
strokeColor: "#FF0000",
strokeOpacity: 0.8,
strokeWeight: 2,
fillColor: "#FF0000",
fillOpacity: 0.35
});
bermudaTriangle.setMap(map);

• KML and GeoRSS Layers
• The Google Maps API supports the KML and GeoRSS data formats for
displaying geographic information. These data formats are displayed on a
map using a KmlLayer object, whose constructor takes the URL of a publicly
accessible KML or GeoRSS file.

• The Traffic Layer
• The Bicycling Layer

Google Maps JavaScript API V3 Services #1
• Geocoding
• Geocoding is the process of converting addresses (like "1600
Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA") into geographic
coordinates (like latitude 37.423021 and longitude -122.083739), which
you can use to place markers or position the map.

• Reverse Geocoding (Address Lookup)
• The term geocoding generally refers to translating a human-readable
address into a location on a map. The process of doing the converse,
translating a location on the map into a human-readable address, is known
as reverse geocoding.

• The GeocodeRequest object literal contains the following fields:
• address: string (*)
• latLng: LatLng (*)
• bounds: LatLngBound
• region: string

• Geocoding Results
results[]: {
types[]: string,
formatted_address: string,
address_components[]: {
short_name: string,
long_name: string,
types[]: string
},
geometry: {
location: LatLng,
location_type: GeocoderLocationType
viewport: LatLngBounds,
bounds: LatLngBounds
}
}

• Geocoding

function codeAddress() {
var address = document.getElementById("address").value;
geocoder.geocode( { 'address': address}, function(results, status) {
if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) {
map.setCenter(results[0].geometry.location);
map: map,
position: results[0].geometry.location
});
} else {
alert("Geocode was not successful for the following reason: " + status);
}
});
}

• Reverse Geocoding
function codeLatLng() {
var input = document.getElementById("latlng").value;
var latlngStr = input.split(",",2);
var lat = parseFloat(latlngStr[0]);
var lng = parseFloat(latlngStr[1]);
var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(lat, lng);
geocoder.geocode({'latLng': latlng}, function(results, status) {
if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) {
if (results[1]) {
map.setZoom(11);
marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: latlng,
map: map
});
infowindow.setContent(results[1].formatted_address);
infowindow.open(map, marker);
}
} else {
alert("Geocoder failed due to: " + status);
}
});
}

• The DirectionsRequest object literal contains the following fields:
{
origin: LatLng | String,
destination: LatLng | String,
travelMode: DirectionsTravelMode,
unitSystem: DirectionsUnitSystem,
waypoints[]: DirectionsWaypoint,
optimizeWaypoints: Boolean,
provideRouteAlternatives: Boolean,
avoidHighways: Boolean,
avoidTolls: Boolean
region: String
}

• Street View
var fenway = new google.maps.LatLng(42.345573,-71.098326);
var mapOptions = {
center: fenway,
zoom: 14,
streetViewControl: true
};
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"), mapOptions);

Google Data Protocol
• The Google Data Protocol provides a secure means for
external developers to write new applications that let end
users access and update the data stored by many Google
products.
• External developers can use the Google Data Protocol
directly, or they can use any of the supported programming
languages provided by the client libraries.
• The protocol currently supports two primary modes of access:
• AtomPub
• JSON
• http://code.google.com/apis/gdata/
