pypolyline 0.5.3

Description:

pypolyline 0.5.3

Fast Google Polyline Encoding and Decoding
Installation
pip install pypolyline
Supported Python Versions

Python 3.8
Python 3.9
Python 3.10
Python 3.11
Python 3.12

Supported Platforms

Linux (manylinux*-compatible, x86_64 and aarch64)
macOS (x86_64 and arm64)
Windows 64-bit

Usage
Coordinates must be in (Longitude, Latitude) order
from pypolyline.cutil import encode_coordinates, decode_polyline

coords = [
[52.64125, 23.70162],
[52.64938, 23.70154],
[52.64957, 23.68546],
[52.64122, 23.68549],
[52.64125, 23.70162]
]

# precision is 5 for Google Polyline, 6 for OSRM / Valhalla
polyline = encode_coordinates(coords, 5)
# polyline is 'ynh`IcftoCyq@Ne@ncBds@EEycB'
decoded_coords = decode_polyline(polyline, 5)

Error Handling
Failure to encode coordinates, or to decode a supplied Polyline, will raise a RuntimeError containing information about the invalid input.
How it Works
FFI and a Rust binary
Is It Fast
…Yes.
You can verify this by installing the polyline package, then running benchmarks.py, a calibrated benchmark using cProfile.
On an M2 MBP, The pure-Python test runs in ~2500 ms, the Flexpolyline benchmark runs in ~1500 ms and The Rust + Cython benchmark runs in around 80 ms (30 x and 17.5 x faster, respectively).
