i am about to create a wordpress-plugin that offers the output of the following data ... the data of a a Neaby-search:
can we create a quewry that shows up all the schools that are in the near - in other words
- (it is a area search) how to perform a search - for http://www.overpass-turbo.eu :
example: what i am after. how to create a request to find all the schools - in the area of - let us say munich - in a radius of 10 km for example!?
a output that shows all the schools around a certain point - or in other words; all in Munich - in a area /(radius) of let us say 10 kilometers can we create a query that works on Overpass-turbo.eu
eg like so: first of all see the intened osm - nearby-search that runs against the overpass-Turbo.eu -API
`[out:csv(::id,::type,::lon,::lat,amenity,name,"addr:postcode","addr:city","addr:street","addr:housenumber","contact:website",website,"contact:email")]
[timeout:600];
area[name="München"];
nwr(area)[name="Marienplatz"];
nwr["amenity"="school"](around:10000);
out center;`
it gives back the results:
`@id @type @lon @lat amenity name addr:postcode addr:city addr:street addr:housenumber contact:website website contact:email

well i think that firstly i should to take care that i have to create the WordPress Plugin Structure: Set up the basic structure of your WordPress plugin, including a main PHP file and any additional files or folders you may need.
Register the Widget: then i need to define a certain kind of a custom widget class that extends the WP_Widget class provided by WordPress.
Implement the Widget Logic: Within your custom widget class, implement the logic to retrieve data from the Overpass API and format it for display.
Display the Widget: Register a callback function to output the widget content, including any HTML markup necessary to display the data.
Here's a basic outline of how you might approach each step:
`
<?php
/*
Plugin Name: osm Nearby Schools Widget
Description: Widget to display nearby schools using Overpass API.
Version: 0.9
Author: osm-fan
*/
// Step 2: well - first of all - we ought to register the Widget propperly
class Nearby_Schools_Widget extends WP_Widget {
// Constructor
public function __construct() {
parent::__construct(
'nearby_schools_widget', // Base ID
'Nearby Schools Widget', // Name
array( 'description' => 'Displays nearby schools using Overpass API' ) // Args
);
}
// Step 4: we ought to display the Widget
public function widget( $args, $instance ) {
// Widget output
echo $args['before_widget'];
echo $args['before_title'] . 'Nearby Schools' . $args['after_title'];
echo '<ul>';
// Step 3: Implement the Widget Logic
$schools = $this->get_nearby_schools();
foreach ($schools as $school) {
echo '<li>' . $school->name . '</li>';
}
echo '</ul>';
echo $args['after_widget'];
}
// Step 3: here we implement the Widget Logic
private function get_nearby_schools() {
$url = 'http://overpass-api.de/api/interpreter';
$data = array(
'data' => '[out:json][timeout:25];(node["amenity"="school"](around:10000,48.1351,11.5820););out;',
);
$response = wp_remote_post( $url, array(
'body' => $data,
) );
if ( is_wp_error( $response ) ) {
return array();
}
$body = wp_remote_retrieve_body( $response );
$schools = json_decode( $body );
return $schools->elements;
}
}
// Step 2: Register the Widget
function register_nearby_schools_widget() {
register_widget( 'Nearby_Schools_Widget' );
}
add_action( 'widgets_init', 'register_nearby_schools_widget' );
`
hmm - well - i think that this could be a first step into the direction: i think that this code sets up a WordPress plugin that creates a widget called "OSM-Nearby Schools Widget"
Well the widget retrieves nearby schools using Overpass API within a 10km radius of Munich's coordinates (48.1351 latitude, 11.5820 longitude), and displays them in an unordered list. Well we may need to adjust the coordinates and then run it against the Overpass API query to fit even more specific requirements.
Do you have some additional ideas - what to add to the plugin(logic)?
