How to present region in Google query

Question

I am using rails geocoder. So far just been using it directly not via ActiveRecord/Mongoid etc.

I would like to in my Google request specify the region, e.g. 'au'

What do I need to in combination with (or instead of) Geocoder.search to achieve this?

@tihom thanks that worked :-) seems so obvious but I hunted through the docs and couldn't find. make it an answer if you like. — Martin Capodici, Oct 07 '13 at 08:58

Try Geocoder.search("Paris", :region => 'au'), the gem uses Google as the default API and the parameters that Google API accepts are given here
