Addy's Address Autocomplete

https://www.addy.co.nz/

Addy's Address Autocomplete will suggest New Zealand street addresses while you type.

This repository contains lightweight and simple code samples for calling the address finder API, validating addresses against the NZ Postal Address File (PAF) and LINZ databases, from a HTML and JavaScript address capture form.

Addy's service is using advanced fuzzy matching (See: https://www.addy.co.nz/address-finder-fuzzy-matching) to correct spelling mistakes.

Benefits

• Increase conversion rates with an improved checkout process
• Deliver to the right address, the first time
• Verify and validate address details in real-time

Get Started

Create a free account https://www.addy.co.nz/signup to get an API key.

1. Include addycomplete.min.css in your page, via the usual tags:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="addycomplete.min.css" />

2. Include addycomplete.min.js at the bottom of the page, before closing the body tag:

<script src="addycomplete.min.js?key=YOUR-ADDY-KEY&callback=initAddy" async defer></script>

Replace YOUR-ADDY-KEY with your own Addy API Key.

Define the fields and options that will be called by the initAddy callback function once the script has loaded.

function initAddy() {
    var addyComplete = new AddyComplete(document.getElementById("address1"));
    addyComplete.fields = {
        address1: document.getElementById("address1"),
        address2: document.getElementById("address2"),
        suburb: document.getElementById("suburb"),
        city: document.getElementById("city"),
        postcode: document.getElementById("postcode")
    }
}
