Description:

pygeoquery 0.1.6

pygeoquery

Perform geospatial queries on a Firestore database with ease.
pygeoquery allows you to retrieve documents within a certain radius of a given geographic point. It utilizes geohashes for efficient querying.
Features

query Firestore collections by geographic proximity.
efficiently filter and retrieve documents within a specified radius.
flexible and customizable query building.
utilizes geohashes for high-performance geospatial queries.
supports both synchronous and asynchronous Firestore clients.

Installation
You can install the library using pip:
pip install pygeoquery

Prerequisites
Before using this library, ensure that each document in the searched Firestore collection includes a field called "geohash" containing a geohash value generated from the geographical coordinates. This geohash field is essential for the library to perform accurate geospatial queries.

To generate geohashes, you can use Python libraries such as:

pygeohash: Provides functions for decoding and encoding geohashes.
geohashr: Just another Python geohashing library.

Usage

Initialize Firebase
from firebase_admin import initialize_app, credentials
from google.cloud import firestore

# Initialize Firebase
cred = credentials.Certificate("path/to/your/serviceAccountKey.json")
initialize_app(cred, {"projectId": "your-project-id"})

Create Firestore client
# Synchronous client
db = firestore.Client()

or
# Asynchronous client
db = firestore.AsyncClient()

Define callback functions
# Define a GeoPointFromCallback
def geopoint_from_callback(data):
return data.get("location") # Replace with your data structure

# Define query builder callback function (optional). This function allows you to customize your query.
def query_builder_callback(query):
return query.where("property", "==", "value") # Customize your query

Create a GeoCollectionReference or GeoAsyncCollectionReference
# Create a GeoCollectionReference
geocollection = GeoCollectionReference(db.collection("your_collection"))

or
# Create a GeoAsyncCollectionReference (asynchronous client only)
geocollection = GeoAsyncCollectionReference(db.collection("your_collection"))

Fetch documents within a radius of a GeoPoint
# Fetch documents within a radius of a GeoPoint
center_point = GeoPoint(latitude, longitude)
radius_km = 10.0

result = geocollection.fetch_within(
center_point,
radius_km,
geopoint_from_callback,
query_builder_callback
)

# Process the retrieved documents
for document in result:
print(document)

If you are using the asynchronous client, use the await keyword to wait for the result.
result = await geocollection.fetch_within(
center_point,
radius_km,
geopoint_from_callback,
query_builder_callback
)
