## Description

**Disclaimer:** _Apple Maps, MapKit JS, and the Apple logo are trademarks of Apple
Inc. Apple Maps may not be available in all countries or regions._

This plugin integrates Apple’s [MapKit JS](https://developer.apple.com/maps/mapkitjs/)
into an “Apple Maps” block in the WordPress block editor (Gutenberg). You will need
an [Apple Developer Program](https://developer.apple.com/programs/) account, Maps
Identifier, and Private Key to configure this plugin and connect to the MapKit JS
API in order for the block to function. Note that the Apple Developer Program has
an annual fee of 99 USD, in local currency where available. Prices may vary by region
and are listed in local currency during the enrollment process. [Fee waivers are available for the Apple Developer Program for eligible organizations](https://developer.apple.com/support/membership-fee-waiver/).

### Configuration

In order to start using the Apple Maps block, you will need to sign up for the Apple
Developer Program and create your Maps identifiers, keys, and tokens. Follow the
steps below to generate the Private Key, Key ID, and Team ID that you will need 
to configure the plugin and gain access to the MapKit JS API for the Apple Maps 
block.

### Create an Apple Developer account

 1. If you don’t already have an Apple ID, then please [create an Apple ID](https://appleid.apple.com/account#!&page=create)
    as it is required in order to enroll in the Apple Developer Program in the next
    step.
 2. [Enroll in the Apple Developer Program as either an individual or organization](https://developer.apple.com/programs/enroll/).
    Note that its possible to have an existing Apple Developer account but not be enrolled
    in the Apple Developer Program, so please be sure to complete the enrollment process
    in this step.
 3. Sign the Apple Developer Program License Agreement in the [Agreements, Tax, and Banking section of App Store Connect](https://appstoreconnect.apple.com/WebObjects/iTunesConnect.woa/da/jumpTo?page=contracts).

### Create a Maps Identifier and Private Key

 1. [Create a Maps ID and a MapKit JS Private Key](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/mapkitjs/creating_a_maps_identifier_and_a_private_key).
 2. Copy the Private Key, paste it into the respective plugin setup field, and ensure
    the key includes the `-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----` and `-----END PRIVATE KEY-----`
    lines.
 3. Open the Key you created in Step 1, copy the `Key ID` value, and paste it into 
    the respective plugin setup field.
 4. Open the Identifier you created in Step 1, copy the `App ID Prefix` value (notice
    the value is appended with `(Team ID)`), and paste it into the respective plugin
    setup field.
 5. Click the `Confirm MapKit Credentials` button in the plugin setup to gain access
    to the block options and begin customizing your Apple Maps block!

## Installation

 1. Install the plugin via the plugin installer, either by searching for it or uploading
    a .ZIP file.
 2. Activate the plugin.
 3. Follow the instructions to configure your accesss to the MapKit JS API.
 4. Use Apple Maps for WordPress!

## FAQ

### I’m seeing validation errors when trying to authenticate my MapKit JS credentials, what am I doing wrong?

If you have WordPress installed in a subdirectory, then there is a [known issue](https://github.com/10up/maps-block-apple/issues/34)
specifically related to this setup where the WordPress Admin URL is different from
the site URL. We’re working on a [minor release](https://github.com/10up/maps-block-apple/milestone/3)
to resolve this issue.

### I want to update my MapKit JS credentials, what’s the best way to do this?

Our recommendation on updating the Apple Maps block settings focuses on ensuring
the best experience for your site users. Specifically we recommend the following
approach to ensure that existing Apple Maps on your site continue to be displayed
during your MapKit JS credential transition.

 1. Create a new MapKit JS Private Key, Key ID, and/or Team ID.
 2. Update the Apple Maps block settings with the newly created Private Key, Key ID,
    and/or Team ID.
 3. Delete your old MapKit JS Private Key, Key ID, and/or Team ID.

### Are there any MapKit JS rate limits?

There is a free daily limit of 250,000 map views and 25,000 service calls per the
Apple Developer Program membership. For additional MapKit JS capacity needs you 
will need to [contact Apple directly](https://developer.apple.com/contact/request/mapkitjs/).

### Can I see how many map views and service requests are made to my MapKit JS Private Key?

Yes, you can track your MapKit JS useage on the [MapKit JS Developer Dashboard](https://maps.developer.apple.com/).
You can also monitor map initializations and service requests in realtime, or see
up to a year of activity by day, week, month, or year via the MapKit JS Dashboard.

This plugin is awesome and exactly what I wanted to see. Setup is very easy. There’s
a bug though: While setting up the Gutenberg block, error messages keep appearing
on the bottom left of the screen. I’d like to have an option to display the map 
in dark mode. I know MapKit JS offers that.

I have been using several different map plugins for my Wordpress site. All have 
had issues. I don’t want to use Google Maps, and the other plugins related to open
maps I have looked at have limitations related to geolookups (particularly non-english
locations) and marker placement. Having an easy way to embed Apple Maps on my Wordpress
site is very helpful. Also like that I can place multiple markers on a map.
