Problems trying to configure google maps in email templates
So what does your template look like?
Hi anton
My template had many looks, I tried inserting the url of google maps in different parts of the line without any positive result. I have tried with more than 30 combinations
Ahora estaba intentando editar el archivo deviceOnline.vm
For example:
#set($subject = "$device.name: online")
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
Device: $device.name<br>
Online<br>
Time: $dateTool.format("YYYY-MM-dd HH:mm:ss", $event.serverTime, $locale, $time$
Point: <a href="https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1?#{if}($position.addre$
</body>
</html>
Your text editor has cut lines in your template.
Yes, I know. That is just when I copy the text in this post.
really when I do the edits tests directly in the .vm file I do not copy and paste from the text editor.
could you put an example of how to put the URL in the file line? would be a great help.
Regards.
No, I can check your one and see if I can find any issues. Also, what do you get in the result? What is the problem?
#set($subject = "$device.name: moving")
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
Device: $device.name<br>
Online<br>
Time: $dateTool.format("YYYY-MM-dd HH:mm:ss", $event.serverTime, $locale, $timezone)<br>
Point: <a href="https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1?eventId=$event.id">#{if}($position.address)$position.address#{else}$position.latitude°, $position.longitude°#{end}</a><br>
</body>
</html>
The result its a text "Device: Audi A3
Online
Time: 2017-09-20 21:33:57
Point: $position.latitude°, $position.longitude°" linked to: http://127.0.1.1:8082/?eventId=17114
But as I said, I have tried another twenty or thirty forms, with similar results.
I do not understand the syntax, so I ask for help.
Regards.
Hi Anton. the forum hiden part of the text for the href tag:
Please see a screenshot
That is not possible. You are definitely missing something. If you changed the template, there is no way Traccar can send the old one.
@bemeto2017
Google know nothing about internal traccar eventId, you should use coordinates to construct link.
We had links to openstreetmap in the first variants of templates https://github.com/tananaev/traccar/blob/6c64c6e87a25b4d2339f2fd8d83fa4bc36d461f2/templates/mail/geofenceEnter.vm#L7
It might help you.
@abyss
Sorry to tell you that your code does not work for me. I copied line 7 from the code in my file deviceMoving.vm
I receive the email with this lnik: https://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat=$position.latitude&mlon=$position.longitude#map=16/$position.latitude/$position.longitude
The code has pasted in my file directly from github whith the option copy line
Could you post here template and email source (body part). Please don't forget format it with Markdown.
#set($subject = "$device.name: moving")
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
Device: $device.name<br>
Online<br>
Time: $dateTool.format("YYYY-MM-dd HH:mm:ss", $event.serverTime, $locale, $timezone)<br>
Point: <a href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat=$position.latitude&mlon=$position.longitude#map=16/$position.latitude/$position.longitude">#if($position$
</body>
</html>
I try use the markdown but like dont work
i no very good in sintax, sorry
You should use 3 grave accent marks, please read the help carefully.
I am trying that when I receive notifications by email, I can follow the link to see the location in google maps.
I know that for this i need to modify the parameter in the templates but I do not understand the syntax
I am editing the geofenceEnter.vm file. I try to enter the web url of google maps "https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1"
I understand that the line to edit is this: href="$webUrl?eventId=$event.id">#{if}($position.address)$position.address#{else}$position.latitude°, $position.longitude°#{end}
"
I have tried in many different ways to insert the url of google maps without results.
I would be very grateful if someone would tell me what the correct syntax is.
Regards.
