## Installation

```shell

npm install -g extract-gtfs-shapes

```

## Usage

```

Usage:

    extract-gtfs-shapes  

Options:

    --concurrency    -c  How many files to write in parallel. Default: 32

    --quiet          -q  Don't log stats.

Examples:

    extract-gtfs-shapes -c 50 data/gtfs/shapes.txt shapes

    cat data/gtfs/shapes.txt | extract-gtfs-shapes - shapes

Notes:

    extract-gtfs-shapes needs the GTFS shapes.txt to be sorted by

    1. shape_id, alphanumerically

    2. shape_pt_sequence, numerically

    You can use Miller (https://miller.readthedocs.io/) and the

    Unix tool sponge to do this:

    mlr --csv sort -f shape_id -n shape_pt_sequence \

      shapes.txt | sponge shapes.txt

```

### from JavaScript

Let's build a simple (and slower) clone of the the `extract-gtfs-shapes` CLI tool documented above:

```js

const {writeFile} = require('fs/promises')

const extractGTFSShapes = require('extract-gtfs-shapes')

const processShape = async (shapeId, shape) => {

    await writeFile(shapeId + 'geo.json', shape)

}

await extractGTFSShapes('path/to/shapes.txt', processShape)

```
