nearby-business-search

Simple Go script to query Google Maps API Nearby Search API to gather data for target company research.

Exports this data to an .xlsx spreadsheet.

Setup

cp .env.example .env

There are still some fields that I plan to move to the .env for configuring, but the majority of them are there now.

A Google project API key will be needed.

Be cautious of setting very large MAX_RESULTS as Google will eventually charge for this. Keep the number low if you are testing.

Run

go run .

Or build it first.

After you run the program, you will see logs stepping through stages of the progress. A simplified table will be printed out to the terminal and the detailed .xlsx will be created based on what ever file name you gave in the .env
