Can I get latitude and longitude for multiple addresses at a time with leaflet js as a JSON?
Like #IvanSanchez said, Leaflet wasn't made to do that. There is, however, a great geocoding plugin to Leaflet that is available on github:
https://github.com/smeijer/L.GeoSearch
No.
LeafletJS is a map display library, not a geocoding service.

I am reading through mapbox JS api but don't seem to find any the geocoding API call that would enable me to provide place lookup using my own typeahead component. So basically I am after sending out a query and receiving an array of results.
I do not mean the example on how to place geocoder Control on or off the map, but rather how can I provide places lookup in my own form [Angular, React, whatever] that does not display any map. Is that possible at all?
[UPDATE May 2020]
Mapbox now does allow you to use a Geocoder without using a map (search form with autocomplete)
July 1, 2019: Removed the default restriction that Services have to be
used in conjunction with a Mapbox map. Point of interest results from
the Geocoding API and Enterprise Boundaries must still be used in
conjunction with a Mapbox map.
Examples can be found from the Mapbox website and from Mapbox Github page.
This previous answer shows an alternative plugin/ service called Algolia that you can use to create a Geocoder.
Another alternative is to use Geocodio.
However, both Geocodio AND Mapbox Geocoder (without a map present) do not support POI (Point of Interest)
E.g. A named place including commercial businesses, public buildings, monuments, and parks, etc.
Hope this helps someone in the future!
This is apparently the violation of Mapbox's terms of service:
You may only use responses from the Geocoding API ("Geocodes") in
conjunction with a Mapbox map.
That's the reason why mapbox-gl-js MapboxGeocoder control (which consumes Mapbox Geocoding API) comes in conjunction with a Mapbox map only and means your scenario is not supported.

I am trying to use the MapBox Geocoding API and for it I tried to translate "Centre Hospitalier Régional d'Orléans" (that is an Hospital in France, Orléans) into Lng/Lat coordinates.
When I display a MapBox Map, I can see the POI:
And when I click it in MapBox Studio, it is well recognized as a Point Of Interest (POI) (poi-label):
But when I try to find it using the Geocoding API, I don't find it.
Here is the request I run:
https://api.mapbox.com/geocoding/v5/mapbox.places/Centre%20Hospitalier.json?access_token=pk.eyJ1IjoibWF0dGZpY2tlIiwiYSI6ImNqNnM2YmFoNzAwcTMzM214NTB1NHdwbnoifQ.Or19S7KmYPHW8YjRz82v6g&cachebuster=1547469044480&autocomplete=true&country=fr&proximity=1.909251%2C47.902964
Is it normal ? Am I doing something wrong or is it a bug ?
The data behind the maps and the geocoder aren't necessarily the same, so it's likely this Hospital is showing up on the map from OpenStreetMap, but isn't in the data being used for the geocoder.
Some information about data sources is at https://www.mapbox.com/about/maps/
You can report feedback about this at https://apps.mapbox.com/feedback/ mentioning its a geocoding issue.
I am designing a project in which I have used two text fields. One is for source address and another one is for destination address.
Now, I want to get latitude and longitude of both addresses and then draw it on map view.
How can I accomplish that?
check this post for geocoding

How do I do geocoding (NOT reverse geocoding) on iPhone?
Do check out SVGeocoder. It's able to perform both forward and reverse gecoding via Google API. Not to mention it's also very easy to use.
I am not familiar the bing Map
I need to display the us map for a given zip code,in a page
How can i do this
Can anyone help me please
Have a look at their API reference...
AJAX Control Version 7
AJAX Control Version 6.3
You will need to geocode the zip code first; if you only need to do this once to display a static map, then you can use this site, although there are lots of other free sites online that do the same thing. Once you have your lat/lon it's pretty straightforward to use them to center your map object.
// assume that lat, lon, and map are js variables you have already declared and set
var oLatLon = new VELatLong(lat, lon);
map.PanToLatLong(oLatLon);
If the map needs to be dynamic and you'll have to geocode addresses on the fly, then I'm not sure what the best approach is. I think there are databases that contain all zipcodes & their corresponding lat/lon coordinates available for download. It might also be worth checking out the Bing MapPoints SDK.
It's easy using REST services which ship with Bing Api. Here you can find a blog post with thorough description.
I have implemented one application .In which i want to get latitude and longitude from the address.I dont want to use java script.Is it possble then please help me.
AFAIK, MKMapKit does not support this.
MapKit has no geocoding support (only reverse geocoding) but Google offers a HTTP Geocoding service that's very easy to use – assuming you comply with their license terms:
Note: the geocoding service may only be used in conjunction with a Google map; geocoding results without displaying them on a map is prohibited.
Use the example from Apple’s «Location Awareness Programming guide: Geocoding Location Data» to pinpoint your location on the map, then call Google Geocoding Service (post a request, parse the result json/xml data) to get the address.
