Address fragment fields
May 31, 2011, 02:52:00 pm
Hi Guys,

In Civi's database we have

street_number
street_number_suffix
street_number_predirectional
street_name
street_type

etc etc

which are address fragments, however I don't think these fields are exposed to the API (at least not API v2).

I'm looking to import address fragments because it's easier to use civicampaign, proximately search etc if you have address broken out.

I can always write a cron script to parse the "street_address" out but it would not always be reliable.

I already have all the fields broken out in my import file , is there any easy way to do this?


Thank you,


Cheers!

Eileen

Hi,

those fields are available to the create api (in v3 anyway -not sure v2). But you have to build up the 'street_address' field yourself. Here's a piece out of some code I am using (
https://svn.fuzion.co.nz/repos/fuzion-code/trunk/drupal/modules/custom/civimigrate/civimigrate.address.inc)

    $params['version'] = '3.0';
    $params['check_permissions'] = $params['check_permission'] = FALSE;

   if (empty($params['street_address'])) {
               $addressComponents = array();
               if(!empty($params['street_number'])){
                $addressComponents[] = $params['street_number']  ;
               }
                 if(!empty($params['street_number_suffix'])){
                $addressComponents[] = $params['street_number_suffix']  ;
               }
                if(!empty($params['street_unit'])){
                $addressComponents[] = $params['street_unit']  ;
               }
                if(!empty($params['street_name'])){
                $addressComponents[] = $params['street_name']  ;
               }
          $params['street_address'] = implode(" ",  $addressComponents);
             }
             if (empty($params['street_address']))unset ($params['street_address']);

        $result  = civicrm_api('Address', 'Create',$params);

The only other thing you could do is customize the streetParse function in CRM/Core/BAO/Adress.php. I have done that to support Dutch street parsing formats (which I still need to adapt for core....hopefully next month.... ;D). But the easiest bit is to create street_address yourself in your wrapper
