Build QGIS geocoder plugin

QGIS Field Calculator

Using the QGIS Field Calculator this will output WKT format.

Output Field

Output field name: wkt Output field type: Text, unlimited length (text)

Function Editor

import geocoder

@qgsfunction(group='Geocoder')
def geocode(location, feature, parent):
    g = geocoder.google(location)
    return g.wkt

Expression

Find the geocode expression in the Geocoder function list, the final result will look something like this:

geocode("address")  

Once the wkt field is added, you can then save your document as a CSV format and in the Layer Options define the GEOMETRY = AS_WKT.
