Arex388.Geocodio is a highly opinionated .NET Standard 2.0 library for the Geocod.io API. It is intended to be an easy, well structured, and highly performant client for interacting with the Geocod.io API for forward and reverse geocoding of addresses and points. It can be used in applications interacting with a single account using IGeocodioClient, or with applications interacting with multiple accounts using IGeocodioClientFactory.

Dependency Injection

To configure dependency injection use the AddGeocodio() extensions on IServiceCollection. There are two signatures, with and without passing in a GeocodioClientOptions object. If the options object is passed to the extension, it will register IGeocodioClient for use with a single account, otherwise it will register IGeocodioClientFactory for use with multiple accounts.

How to Use

For a single account, inject the IGeocodioClient.

private readonly IGeocodioClient _geocodio;

_ = await _geocodio.GeocodeAsync("The address to geocode");
_ = await _geocodio.ReverseGeocodeAsync("The point to reverse geocode");

For multiple accounts, inject the IGeocodioClientFactory to create an instance per account.

private readonly IGeocodioClientFactory _geocodioFactory;

var geocodio = _geocodio.CreateClient(new GeocodioClientOptions {
    Key = "Your key from Geocod.io"
});

_ = await geocodio.GeocodeAsync("The address to geocode");
_ = await geocodio.ReverseGeocodeAsync("The point to reverse goeocode");

The client provides methods for interacting with Geocode and Reverse Geocode using the following methods:

Geocode
  • GeocodeAsync() - Geocode a single address.
  • GeocodeManyAsync() - Geocode multiple addresses.
Reverse Geocode
  • ReverseGeocodeAsync() - Reverse geocode a single point.
  • ReverseGeocodeManyAsync() - Reverse geocode multiple points.
