This service directly calls methods in the google maps javascript included in the darkswarm layout. If we're moving away from it, we should clarify where it's used.
The map is displayed using https://leafletjs.com/
To enable Open Street Map go to the Admin -> Configuration -> Content section and click 'Open Street Map Enabled'.
The 'Open Street Map Provider Name' setting can be used to configure different tile providers thanks to the Leaflet-providers extension (https://github.com/leaflet-extras/leaflet-providers)
Some tile providers require an API key, this can provided in JSON format e.g. '{ apiKey: 123 }' in the 'Open Street Map Provider Options' setting.
Each tile provider has their own usage policy so this should be checked before enabling Open Street Map.
The search field for the Open Street Map works differently than searching on Google Maps. It matches producers by their name or address because it was easier to implement instead of matching place names all over the world.

The spinjs-rails gem provides a CSS3 a spinning activity indicator. This commit removes the gem so we don't have to keep the gem up-to-date and uses the spinning-circles.svg which is used already in other places.
The spinjs spinner can be seen when viewing or editing taxonomies in /admin/taxonomies. It is loaded from the .ajaxStart call in app/assets/javascripts/admin/spree/progress.coffee
To test or restyle this spinner you can change the display property of the #progress element in app/assets/stylesheets/admin/components/progress.scss to 'block'.
Here we need to build a really dynamic structure on the page like "Results for: <search-term> in <filter1> or <filter2>" and the styling on each of the words needs to be a bit different, specifically the filter terms need to be differently styled to the join words like "in" and "or". We have to generate those bits on the Angular side, but they also have to be wrapped in HTML in a specific way.
$sce.trustAsHtml() marks the injected HTML as "safe" (in relation to security issues like XSS). In this case the injected content doesn't involve any user-defined data, so it should be fine.
