Google Maps API - Geocode & Search Nearby - google-maps

Question

I'm trying to merge together a GOOGLE geocoder script and a 'search nearby' script. I cannot seem to merge it successfully. Help?
The geocoder script lies here:
var geocoder;
var map;
function initialize() {
geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();
var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(-34.397, 150.644);
var mapOptions = {
zoom: 8,
center: latlng
}
map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map-canvas'), mapOptions);
}
function codeAddress() {
var address = document.getElementById('address').value;
geocoder.geocode( { 'address': address}, function(results, status) {
if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) {
map.setCenter(results[0].geometry.location);
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
map: map,
position: results[0].geometry.location
});
} else {
alert('Geocode was not successful for the following reason: ' + status);
}
});
}
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);
And the search nearby script lies here:
var map;
var infowindow;
function initialize() {
var pyrmont = new google.maps.LatLng(-33.8665433, 151.1956316);
map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map-canvas'), {
center: pyrmont,
zoom: 15
});
var request = {
location: pyrmont,
radius: 500,
types: ['store']
};
infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow();
var service = new google.maps.places.PlacesService(map);
service.nearbySearch(request, callback);
}
function callback(results, status) {
if (status == google.maps.places.PlacesServiceStatus.OK) {
for (var i = 0; i < results.length; i++) {
createMarker(results[i]);
}
}
}
function createMarker(place) {
var placeLoc = place.geometry.location;
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
map: map,
position: place.geometry.location
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
infowindow.setContent(place.name);
infowindow.open(map, this);
});
}
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);
So I'm posting on here because I have no idea how to merge them. I tried to merge the scripts together but I couldn't get it to work. Any ideas?
Thanks.

Could be something like this sketch below.
Not sexy, but works.
Don't forget to include the places libary.
JS
var geocoder;
var map;
var infowindow;
var pyrmont = new google.maps.LatLng(-33.8665433, 151.1956316);
function initialize() {
var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(-34.397, 150.644);
var mapOptions = {
zoom: 8,
center: latlng
}
map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map-canvas'), mapOptions);
codeAddress();
var request = {
location: pyrmont,
radius: 500,
types: ['store']
};
infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow();
var service = new google.maps.places.PlacesService(map);
service.nearbySearch(request, callback);
}
function codeAddress() {
geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();
var address = '100 Murray St, Pyrmont NSW, Australia';
geocoder.geocode( { 'address': address}, function(results, status) {
if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) {
map.setCenter(results[0].geometry.location);
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
map: map,
position: results[0].geometry.location
});
} else {
alert('Geocode was not successful for the following reason: ' + status);
}
});
}
function callback(results, status) {
if (status == google.maps.places.PlacesServiceStatus.OK) {
for (var i = 0; i < results.length; i++) {
createMarker(results[i]);
}
}
}
function createMarker(place) {
var placeLoc = place.geometry.location;
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
map: map,
position: place.geometry.location
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
infowindow.setContent(place.name);
infowindow.open(map, this);
});
}
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);

EDIT:
Or you can simply copy and paste this html file, this should work.

EDIT 2:
First geocode the address and then show places nearby.
var geocoder;
var map;
var infowindow;
//var pyrmont = new google.maps.LatLng(-33.8665433, 151.1956316);
var nearbysearchloc = '';
function initialize() {
var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(-34.397, 150.644);
var mapOptions = {
zoom: 8,
center: latlng
}
map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map-canvas'), mapOptions);
codeAddress();
}
function codeAddress() {
geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();
var address = '100 Murray St, Pyrmont NSW, Australia';
geocoder.geocode( { 'address': address}, function(results, status) {
if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) {
map.setCenter(results[0].geometry.location);
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
map: map,
position: results[0].geometry.location
});
ParseLocation(results[0].geometry.location);
} else {
alert('Geocode was not successful for the following reason: ' + status);
}
});
}
function callback(results, status) {
if (status == google.maps.places.PlacesServiceStatus.OK) {
for (var i = 0; i < results.length; i++) {
createMarker(results[i]);
}
}
}
function createMarker(place) {
var placeLoc = place.geometry.location;
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
map: map,
position: place.geometry.location
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
infowindow.setContent(place.name);
infowindow.open(map, this);
});
}
function ParseLocation(location) {
var lat = location.lat().toString().substr(0, 12);
var lng = location.lng().toString().substr(0, 12);
nearbysearchloc = new google.maps.LatLng(lat, lng);
ShowPlacesAroundMe(nearbysearchloc);
}
function ShowPlacesAroundMe(location){
var request = {
location: location,
radius: 500,
types: ['store']
};
infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow();
var service = new google.maps.places.PlacesService(map);
service.nearbySearch(request, callback);
}
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);
