# geometry.hpp

Provides header-only, generic C++ interfaces for geometry types, geometry collections, and features.

- `maplibre::geometry::point`
- `maplibre::geometry::multi_point`
- `maplibre::geometry::line_string`
- `maplibre::geometry::multi_line_string`
- `maplibre::geometry::polygon`
- `maplibre::geometry::multi_polygon`
- `maplibre::geometry::geometry_collection`
- `maplibre::feature::feature`

Dependency of [MapLibre Native](https://github.com/maplibre/maplibre-native).

### Design

These types are designed to be easy to parse and serialize to [GeoJSON](http://geojson.org/).

They should also be a robust and high performance container for data processing and conversion.

### Goals

- Header-only
- Fast compile
- C++20
- No external dependencies for usage of core types (point, line_string, etc)
- No dependencies for usage of enclosing `geometry` type
- Easily [adaptable to `boost::geometry`](http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_56_0/libs/geometry/doc/html/geometry/examples/example__adapting_a_legacy_geometry_object_model.html)

### Usage

Using a single type directly:

```cpp
#include
#include

using maplibre::geometry::point;

int main() {
point pt(1.0,0.0);
std::clog << "x: " << pt.x << " y: " << pt.y << "\n";
}
```

Creating a geometry collection:

```cpp
#include
#include
#include

using maplibre::geometry::geometry_collection;
using maplibre::geometry::geometry;
using maplibre::geometry::point;

using point_type = point;

struct printer
{
printer() {}

void operator()(point_type const& pt) const
{
std::clog << "x: " << pt.x << " y: " << pt.y << "\n";
}

template
void operator()(T const& g) const
{
std::clog << "encountered non-point geometry\n";
}
};

int main() {
geometry_collection gc;
gc.emplace_back(point_type(1.0,0.0));
geometry const& geom = gc.at(0);
printer visitor;
std::visit(visitor, geom);
}
```
