Installing dj-geocoding

Install the package and add it to your project’s requirements file:

pip install dj-geocoding

The app does not install any models so there’s no need to add to your own project’s INSTALLED_APPS list.

Configuration

For bulk geocoding the app currently uses Geocodio. Future versions are expected to support additional bulk geocoding services.

Add your API key to your project settings:

GEOCODIO_API_KEY = 'jskd823jqjdkjdj191'

Note

Ensure that this key is added to either a non-source controlled settings file or better yet is loaded via an environment variable. Secrets like this should never go in source control.

App configuration

See configuring admin-based geocoding for project integration guidance.
