How to cycle through each element of an array each second

in Using jQuery • 12 years ago

Hi all,

I need to geocode 100 addresses from google maps, but if I iterate an array with a simple for loop, google maps stop all my request with a "OVER_QUERY_LIMIT" because te request are too fast.

What I want to get is to send a single request to google maps every 5 seconds but I don't know how to iterate avery item of my array every 5 seconds.

Any help or idea?

This is my code:

$(document).ready(function(){
geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();
var addresses = [" example address 1"," example address 2"," example address N"];
// This code does work too fast and I need to extract an item every 5 second and send it to the codeAddress function.
for (i = 0; i < addresses.length; i++) {
codeAddress(addresses[i]);
}
});
function codeAddress(address) {
geocoder.geocode( { 'address': address}, function(results, status) {
if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) {
console.log('Lat'+results[0].geometry.location.b + ' - Lng:' + results[0].geometry.location.c);
} else {
console.log("Geocode was not successful for the following reason: " + status);
}
});
}
