I am new on ruby. I want to know that how can I store multiple markers in database using google maps. I want to store values of longitude and latitude in single attributes in database.

This is my controller code for storing single values in database from markers

@product.latitude = params[:product]['latitude']   
@product.longitude = params[:product]['longitude']

This is my javascript for map 

google.maps.event.addListener(map, 'click', function (evt) {
  var location =  evt.latLng
  placeMarker(location);
  $("#product_latitude").val(location.lat());
  $("#product_longitude").val(location.lng());
});

  • You can push each marker into an array and then serialize them to be stored in DB – theterminalguy Mar 04 '17 at 10:52

As the click event happens you will send a ajax request to Controller where you can use reverse geo code and can convert these lat,lng into address and can save it . on every click new pin will be added and ajax request will called to server
