GeoCoder Client Library for Node.js

This module provides basic geo coding methods. It contains method for calculating distance between the points and checking if distance falls in the rance of point

Example

ES5 way

const GeoCoder = require('geocoder_node');
const coder = new GeoCoder('M')
const {latitude: lat2, longitude: lon2} = testData[0]
const geoObj = {
  lat1: 53.339428,
  lon1: -6.257664,
  lat2: 52.986375,
  lon2: -6.043701
}
const distance = coder.getDistanceBetweenPoints(geoObj)

ES6 way

import GeoCoder from 'geocoder_node';
const coder = new GeoCoder('M')
const geoObj = {
  lat1: 53.339428,
  lon1: -6.257664,
  lat2: 52.986375,
  lon2: -6.043701
}
const distance = coder.getDistanceBetweenPoints(geoObj)

Installation

npm install geocoder_node //install locally

npm install -g geocoder_node //install globally

npm install geocoder_node --save //install locally and save to package json

Quick Start

Methods supported

#####Get distance between points based on unit

const distance = coder.getDistanceBetweenPoints(geoObj);

#####Get absolute distance between points

const distance = coder.getAbsDistance(distance, val);

#####Convert to given unit

const distance = coder.convertToUnit(unit, distance);

#####check if points have distance in the range of input

const distance = coder.checkPointsAtDistance(geoObj);

Tests

To run tests type npm test. To run tests with coverage type npm coverage.
