## Installation
Add this line to your application’s Gemfile:
```ruby
gem "mapkick-static"
```
Mapkick Static uses the [Mapbox Static Images API](https://docs.mapbox.com/api/maps/static-images/). [Create a Mapbox account](https://account.mapbox.com/auth/signup/) to get an access token and set `ENV["MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN"]` in your environment.
## Maps
Point map
```erb
<%= static_map [{latitude: 37.7829, longitude: -122.4190}] %>
```
Area map
```erb
<%= static_area_map [{geometry: {type: "Polygon", coordinates: ...}}] %>
```
## Data
Data can be an array
```erb
<%= static_map [{latitude: 37.7829, longitude: -122.4190}] %>
```
### Point Map

}
```

{
geometry: {type: "Polygon", coordinates: ...},
color: "#0090ff"
}
```
## Options

```erb
<%= static_map data, width: 800, height: 500 %>
```
