polyline 2.0.4

Encoding

To get the encoded polyline representation of a given set of (lat, lon) coordinates:

import polyline
polyline.encode([(38.5, -120.2), (40.7, -120.9), (43.2, -126.4)], 5)

This should return _p~iF~ps|U_ulL~ugC_hgN~eq`@.

You can set the required precision with the optional precision parameter. The default value is 5.

You can encode (lon, lat) tuples by setting geojson=True.

Decoding

To get a set of coordinates represented by a given encoded polyline string:

import polyline
polyline.decode('u{~vFvyys@fS]', 5)

This should return [(40.63179, -8.65708), (40.62855, -8.65693)] in (lat, lon) order.

You can set the required precision with the optional precision parameter. The default value is 5.

You can decode into (lon, lat) tuples by setting geojson=True.

Documentation

The documentation can be generated automatically from the source files using Sphinx:

python -m sphinx.cmd.build -b html docs docs/_build/html

Testing and Conventions

All unit tests are executed and their coverage is measured when using pytest:

python -m pytest

Style conventions are enforced using Pylint:

python -m pylint polyline
