• Comprehensive place searches with detailed information, including:

  • Business names and addresses
  • Contact information
  • Hours of operation
  • POI (Points of Interest) categories
  • Food types for restaurants
  • Chain affiliation for relevant businesses

• Global data coverage with a wide range of POI categories

• Regular data updates to ensure accuracy and relevance

Getting Started

Examples are available for many services and operations, check out the examples folder in GitHub.

The SDK provides one crate per AWS service. You must add Tokio as a dependency within your Rust project to execute asynchronous code. To add aws-sdk-geoplaces to your project, add the following to your Cargo.toml file:

[dependencies]
aws-config = { version = "1.1.7", features = ["behavior-version-latest"] }
aws-sdk-geoplaces = "1.3.0"
tokio = { version = "1", features = ["full"] }

Then in code, a client can be created with the following:

use aws_sdk_geoplaces as geoplaces;

#[::tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), geoplaces::Error> {
    let config = aws_config::load_from_env().await;
    let client = aws_sdk_geoplaces::Client::new(&config);

    // ... make some calls with the client

    Ok(())
}

See the client documentation for information on what calls can be made, and the inputs and outputs for each of those calls.

Using the SDK

Until the SDK is released, we will be adding information about using the SDK to the Developer Guide. Feel free to suggest additional sections for the guide by opening an issue and describing what you are trying to do.
